Silverhawk the Vampire Slayer

Who takes an extra 2d6 STUN every time you hit her, against which she has no defense.
 
Lucius Alexander
 
She would probably faint if a palindromedary tried to bite her.

PS: Concert Pianist, INT+3 roll
KS: Classical Music, INT+3(alternatively, Jazz)
KS: Music Theory, INT roll
Group/Culture Knowledge: Professional Musicians(classical music), INT roll
Plus an INT of at least 15, DEX of 13-15+, and likely decent EGO(concentration is a key requirement) and some stage PRE too.  Maybe 25 points worth of skills and 25 worth of stats too. 
 
I'd generally put a 15 or 16- as "world class".  Keep in mind, 11- is "competent", 12- would be "highly competent", 14- is "expert"(read here as "virtuoso" base level).  18- is "best living concert pianist in the world", 19-20 or less is "best pianist who ever lived".  So 15 or 16 or less seems fairly "world class".  
 
Olympic Gymnasts have Acrobatics and Breakfall, plus PS: Olympic Gymnast, 12+(12 is the minimum roll for a qualified gymnast, I'd say real contenders start at 14, gold medalist types around 16, and all-time greats in the 17+ range).  Maybe some Climbing, +1m or leaping, decent STR, CON and END.  Culture knowledge: Olympic athletes/world of gymnastics.  Very good DEX, maybe some heightened PER for knowing where one is on the event at all times.

Closest I ever got to something like this was a free Dinner for two at Ruth Chris steakhouse after our waiter wandered off and forgot we existed.
 
The whole meal was free and they encouraged us to get a couple drinks and a dessert to make up for their failure.  Overall, pretty sweet deal.
 
 

"I dated Mother Theresa. That's why she decided to become a nun!"

After an annoying afternoon at her job last weekend, daughter came home and was advocating the employees go storm the CEO's estate and start beheading his family (ending with him).  With me having long been an advocate for counter-corporate action of extreme violence, all I could say was, "That's my girl."

While this is not strictly Fantasy Hero, and is maybe not even strictly fantasy, it is certainly fantasy related!  And I would imagine, of interest to Fantasy Hero players.  
 
Jason Timmermans documents his build of a leather gauntlet, here (his leather hardening technique published separately on his page here).  It is beautiful, functional, and badass!  I believe he intends to, at some point, build a full suit of leather armor; his testing of samples (photo included in the page) shows a broadhead hunting arrow that would normally go through a deer, including bone, mostly stopped by several layers of his hardened leather.  Not completely, mind you; slightly over an inch of the arrowhead penetrated through the armor, but as he says, it's going to hurt but it won't kill you.  The arrow was shot from a recurve bow made from modern composite materials, with a 48 pound draw weight at 29 inches draw length, from 15 feet away.  
 
I kinda want one, even though I absolutely have no practical need for one.  
 
Here's what it looks like:
 

See, that's what I want in my back yard.  The people at the nursery just don't get it.

Extra tummy rubs for that cat! The pain will be worth it.

Good afternoon!
