16 COM 3

Uhh... no. Taarna was a 20 COM. Even if you don't personally feel that way, it was clearly intended that she was your typical fantasy babe: utterly gorgeous. And her PRe could be a couple of points higher. She isn't even phased when the evil Loc-Nar overlord is torturing her. Her SPD should also be a 4. SPD 3 people really can't take out a room full of thugs the way she did, though I suppose Rapid Attack could take care of that. I'd also replace the HTH attack with the "Dirty Infighting" martial arts package. Otherwise, this is a perfectly good write-up.

she could use a few skill levels as wellS

 

The ego I made 18 because she showed extream amounts of willpower during the segment of the film she was in, getting captured, whiped, thrown down chasm.. and still being able to go on and defeat the bad guy in a one on one. Then she sacrificed herself with out even flinching to take out the loc-nar.

 

PD/ED might be a bit high.

Hmm, yep, got to agree with the 20 com, and maybe I should increase her speed to 4. AND add Rapid attack.

How about 23 COM?

 

I was thinking maybe her strength might need a tweak up too, women don't put on muscle mask in quite the same way as men and she handled a one handed sword pretty well. I have a character in my PBEM who is playing a rip off of John Candy's character.

 

I think you did a good job on the disadvantages.
