Rules and walk-through

Post by Puckohue »

All players will be given a private forum for character creation.

Abilities
  1. Roll 3D6 for the following abilities:
    • Strength represents the ability to inflict damage on an opponent.
    • Expertise represents the skill and experience at fencing.
    • Constitution represents the character’s general health.

      Endurance is determined later: STRxCON.
      Endurance Class is a public number derived from Endurance: 1=< 60, 2=61-90, 3=91-120, 4=121-159, 5=160-200, 6=201+
  2. Roll 1D6 for the following ability:
    • Battle represents the ability to lead men in battle.
Class
  1. Let the GM know if your significant parent is your father or your mother (or the GM will decide randomly).

  2. Roll 1D6 to determine your significant parent's class:
    1D6Class
    1-2Cottar
    3-4Carl
    5-6Thane

  3. Roll 1D6 to determine your character's sibling rank:
    1D6Rank
    1
    First Child*
    2
    Second Child
    3
    Third Child
    4
    Fourth Child
    5-6
    Bastard**
    * Increase initial Funds and Allowance by 10% and Initial Charisma by 1; if Noble class, you increase Charisma by another 3.
    ** Decrease Initial Funds and Allowance by 10% and subtract 1 from Initial Charisma.

  4. Roll 1D6. On a roll of 1, you are an orphan: you do not get an Allowance and receive the Inheritance/Sibling Rank instead as Initial Funds.

  5. Roll 1D6 to determine your Initial Funds, Allowance, and Inheritance based on your parent's standard of living: [br][/br]
