You sit at a table in a darkened Inn...

[Enforcer84]

A while back I started a superpowered wish fullfillment thread. Make yourself as a superheroic character with 350 pts. it didn't fly. So, because I lack the sense to quit while I am behind, make yourself as a fantasy character.

 

75+75 pts

 

Any fantasy setting you want (but if its Sci Fi i have one started at the Star Hero boards)

[tkdguy]

I already AM a fantasy character.

 

Seriously, I could write myself up as as an elf or half-elf (well, not really, but this is a FANTASY thread, right?), with the light fighter and martial artist packages.

Okay, If I'm going to play as someone (vaguely) based upon myself. I would have stats something like

Although that’s probably vanity talking. I haven’t been sick for a long time, so I thought I’d have a good constitution score, the strength is based on how many dog food bags I could pick up (straining) at my old job, but the rest is vanity.

I’m studying Chemical Engineering, so I suppose Alchemy would be the fantasy equivalent (I used Herolovers Alchemy system). I speak Spanish Fluently with accent, but that wouldn’t be used in a fantasy setting, so insert a whatever language would be. I’m not very good at wrestling, but I would be in fantasy land.

 

On to Perks

Fringe Benefit: access to Chemical Stores and Labs at university 2

Total Perk Cost: 11 points

 

Okay, that was inflated as well. Gojira doesn’t have attack training, but he’d be even cooler if he did, so I added it. He has 50 disadvantage points. And I don’t really have extensive access to dangerous chemicals (except on Thursdays), but I plan to one day.

 

And Talents

I like Spicy Food! 2 points flash defense (taste group)

 

Okay, here’s my story in fantasy land. I’m studying to be a great (and wealthy) Alchemist at a public university. I learned to wrestle as a youth, but don’t do much with it now. I have a pet iguana which keeps me from being lonely, even though lizards appear to be incapable of returning affection. In fantasy land, this also has lead me to gain an understanding of dragon-kind. Why am I sitting in a dark inn, probably about to be talked in to hacking some orcs and stealing their loot? I'm studying. I'll go along because the university ain’t cheap. No no, it ain’t cheap.

not enough points.

[assault]

I'd go with "an educated gentleman of a scholarly persuasion".

 

There are two different varieties of this, depending on culture.

 

In some cases, it would simply be somebody important enough to play the role of priest and/or Roman Republican style magistrate. I've always wanted to be a Tribune of the People.

 

In more medieval situations, I would go with someone who attended University, was ordained into minor orders, and pursued a respectable career as a county squire, mercenary and pirate. Hopefully he could expand his estates and maybe even end up as a baron. (That's not too hard, since a baron is technically just a landowner who holds his land directly from the king.)

 

I had better explain that. Universities began as schools for training priests. Most of the students were in their teens - more or less high school age in modern terms. Not all wound up in the priesthood - many simply left after a couple of years, while others ended up in "minor orders" - as something less than priests, monks or friars, but with the right to be tried in church rather than secular courts, and maybe a few other perks. Of course, celibacy was optional.

 

Of course, these are character conceptions from the two campaigns that are jostling for space in my brain at the moment. I'm trying to draw a map, but I can't quite make up my mind which way I want to go. The two aren't really compatible, since the former is city state or clan oriented, while the latter has a powerful church. The latter is also pseudo-christian, while the others are non-specific.

 

Sigh. I'm being indecisive as usual.
