[Praefectus Screptum]

Trooper, just a tip, str, spd and skl are sorta core stats for a class like myrmidon. Also luck for extra evasion. SKL is important to any class planning to attack, actually as it both increases hit rate and crit rate.

[Solymr]

I compilated the aspirants in one post.

I'm probably gonna play a thief/spy.

EDIT: Now I remember why I wanted to post something - this game's based on the 1.3 rules, right?

What final promotion are you guys considering? I'm looking at having a Paladin. Also I have 2 questions. First, why do you have two old editions of handbook in the OP? Second, how should I go about getting/making a mug sprite?

Character Changes made

Nullifying Thunder

Bio: Felicia is the daughter of lesser nobility, they had the title but not the wealth, and had to work the land like anyone else, although they did live a bit better. Felicia was expected to enter military service at some point, as that was how the family had earned their honours in the first place.  She was about to be sent off to learn how to be a cavalier when she encountered an injured and abandoned wyvern hatchling.  Having a kind soul, she took the baby home and treated it. The young wyvern female (who felicia named Path) attached it's self to Felicia who both wanted to follow expectations and stay with Path saw the obvious solution. Felecia has now started training with Path so that they can become a proud wyvern knight duo, their bond is even more unbreakable than before and Felicia insists on sleeping wherever Path does, so she often smells of reptile.

Hello friends,

It's been sometime since I played a pbp or anything on the bay12 forums for that matter, but this rather quite caught my interest and unless I'm miscounting here there's still room for another novice?  If this is barging in unannounced my apologies, here's a character I made:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Name:  Kazi
Mug: Image
Sprite:
Class: Swordsman Trainee->Myrmidon->Swordmaster
Character Skill: Wrath
Affinity: (leave this blank until I give you choices)
Personal Fault: Empathetic, if an allied character is reduced to zero HP foes gain +10 critical to attack her.
Personal Skills: Martyr Complex, when below 50% HP Kazi gains +2 Attack Skill.

Preferred Stats:  Skill, Speed

Weapon Profs:  Sword (E)

Total Level: (I fill this up)
Level/Tier: (I fill this up)

HP: 18 (+0) (40%)
STR: 4 (+0) (50%)
MAG: 1 (+0) (0%)
SKL: 5 (+2) (70%)
LCK: 2 (+1) (50%)
DEF: 2 (+0) (40%)
RES: 0 (+0) (20%)
SPD: 4 (+1) (60%)
CON: 4 (+0)
AID: 3
MOV: 4

Bio:
Kazi has wandered far from home in search of fulfilling her dream: to become the very best swordswoman.  The daughter of a humble merchant, she spurned a life of counting coins and courting an arranged marriage.  In love with romantic tales of heroism and daring-do, she bought a sword and set out to become the mistress of her own fate: a delusion of heroics clouding the realities of violence.  Soon, she may have to face the harsh realities of war--but for the moment she remains happy and excited to have embarked upon the path of the swordsman, hoping one day to master every style and become renowned for her prowess with a blade.

Name: Aurus
Mug: I can't sprite.
Sprite: I still can't sprite.
(If I could, his sprite would be a cloaked wanderer, wearing a white hood and trenchcoat, with a two large metal plates on his chest and back, with leather straps on the side and top.)
Class: Swordsman Trainee -> Myrmidon -> Swordmaster
Character Skill: Weapon Saver
Affinity: (leave this blank until I give you choices)
Personal Fault: Thanks to his infamy for killing other bandits in their sleep, bandits just hate him, and bandits and their promotions gain a 15% crit chance bonus against him.
Personal Skills: Due to Aurus's preference for getting up close to fight, he gains +10% crit chance if he's used all MOV in the round.

Preferred Stats: (not necessary, I can fill this up EXCEPT if you need to pick them due to the class picked)

Weapon Profs: Sword (E)

Total Level: (I fill this up)
Level/Tier: (I fill this up)
HP: 18 (60%)
STR: 4 (65%)
MAG: 1 (-1% because myrmidons don't use magic)
SKL: 5 (55%)
LCK: 2 (30%)
DEF: 2 (50%)
RES: 0 (20%)
SPD: 4 (50%)
CON: 4
AID: 3
MOV: 4

Bio: Aurus was just a normal bandit. Until one day, he woke up a few hours before the rest of his bandit group, and stabbed them all with their own bandits. He's done so with other bandit groups, until he decided to become a mercenary instead of a bandit traitor.

Starting weapon is slim sword.

Insert ctsun here

I want you all to consider that there are only 6 spots and the party should have a variety of weapons. I can't help much more right now.

Is an action required in order to change weapons?

Nope, but you can't change after your action. An ally can help you switch weapons with the trade action.

Could I use my second Personal Skill (the one gained after reaching my First Class) to pick up an E rank in Light magic (as a Shaman), then?

Sereiously man, even I know that the classes are partially balanced by weapon access, please stop trying to game the system

Very well, then. I just wanted to know what my limits were.

No you can't. While trying to get to know the game is fine, focus more on making an interesting character than on trying to cheese the game v:

Also pick one character that you want to join with.

[ATHATH]

I did pick which character I wanted to join as- my Dancer. I bolded it in each character sheet post and everything.

[ATHATH]

Wait a minute... Priest Trainees can promote into Monks/Nuns- what happens to their proficiency in Staffs?

[randomgenericusername]

I think my personal fault is too much, should I reduce the -Hit?

Wait a minute... Priest Trainees can promote into Monks/Nuns- what happens to their proficiency in Staffs?

They lose it.

[Solymr]

I did pick which character I wanted to join as- my Dancer. I bolded it in each character sheet post and everything.

Alright then, did you specify where you're putting your bonus 4 points? Also since Dancer's main attack stat is STR you won't be able to get Center. Also also your personal fault should have a trigger, and the support penalty to -50% and your personal skills are personal, can't affect other character's stats.

I think my personal fault is too much, should I reduce the -Hit?

Wait a minute... Priest Trainees can promote into Monks/Nuns- what happens to their proficiency in Staffs?

They lose it.

Priest Trainees can't promote to Monks/Nuns anymore. Instead they can promote to Butlers/Maids, which have staff proficiency.

Also yeah -15 Hit is the standard.

[Azrayel]

In light of the high sword density I've elected to resubmit as a Mage Trainee.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Name: Naziri
Mug:
Sprite:
Class: Mage Trainee -> Shaman -> Summoner
Character Skill: Daunt
Affinity: (leave this blank until I give you choices)
Personal Fault: Vodun's Heel, if attacked Shamans or their Promotions, -1 to MOV the following turn.
Personal Skills: Team Player, if within 3 of (an) Allied Unit(s) gain +10 to Hit and Evasion.

Preferred Stats:  Skill, Magic

Weapon Profs: Dark (E)
Starting Weapon: Worm

Total Level: (I fill this up)
Level/Tier: (I fill this up)

HP: 17 (+0) (50%)
STR: 0 (+0) (0%)
MAG: 5 (+0) (60%)
SKL: 4 (+0) (60%)
LCK: 2 (+0) (10%)
DEF: 0 (+2) (40%)
RES: 3 (+0) (50%)
SPD: 4 (+0) (60%)
CON: 4 (+2)
AID: 2 (5)
MOV: 4


Bio:
Naziri sought the secrets of the spirits in the wake of personal tragedy with the death of her lover.  Rather than come to terms with mortality she has slowly studied the forms of Dark magic in the hopes of learning a way to stop death itself--though she keeps this secret to all but the closest of companions.  On the surface, she is merely a studious mage looking to make a living outside a musty library.  Slow to anger and quick to forgive, Naziri is an agreeable companion who doesn't allow her longterm mission to override more fleeting moments of joy and connection.

edit: many stat changes

Lore Master in 1.3 has them using STR for spells if they promote from Dancer cuz of this v:

Also

one day, he woke up a few hours before the rest of his bandit group, and stabbed them all with their own bandits

Shouldn't he have bandit proficiency instead ;v

[randomgenericusername]

I dont think I explained myself right
I want my personal skill to give me 2 mov when someone is ko, I thougth this was too strong so I made my personal fault target both priests, monks and their promotions, giving me -Hit with them. I think that the -Hit I gave myself its a kittle too much, but im not sure how to make it balance the +2 mov bonus I would get from my personal skill.


Also, when I promote to troubadour, I will use  lances.

[Solymr]

+2 MOV is too strong specially on a horse. +1 MOV is standard though.

[ATHATH]

Can we put a 0% growth rate in both STR and MAG (on the same character)?

Another character sheet that I made just for fun (I am still going to use my Dancer character):

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Name: Jolakim Quirn, Death Delver of the 7th Circle
Class: Archer Trainee -> Spy -> Assassin
Character Skill: Wrath
Affinity:
Personal Fault: This character counts as Undead as well as a Human whenever (and ONLY whenever) that would be detrimental to him.
Personal Skills: While this character is below 1/2 health, +10 Critical

Preferred Stats: Skill, Defense

Weapon Profs: Bow (E)

Total Level:
Level/Tier:

HP: 16 (40%)
STR: 4 (0%)
MAG: 1 (0%)
SKL: 7 (70%)
LCK: 2 (10%)
DEF: 3 (70%)
RES: 1 (70%)
SPD: 6 (70%)
CON: 4
AID: 3
MOV: 4

Bio: The Death Delvers (OOC: Yes, their name is/was shameless stolen from D&D) believe that to truly understand how to deliver death, they must experience it themselves. Because of this, they deliberately put themselves in near-death (or full-death, depending on if there is someone with the capability to revive them nearby) experiences/situations, reveling in the adrenaline rush and fear that doing so brings. There appears to be some merit to their beliefs, as their members claim to be able to see the weak points in their enemies (they "glow", according to the Death Delvers) while near death themselves- and they deliver critical strikes with frightening frequency.

Final Critical Rate (when below 30% health, at first level, and with no active Bonds): 53.5%

[randomgenericusername]

+2 MOV is too strong specially on a horse. +1 MOV is standard though.

But if I make my personal fault strong enough would I be able to keep it at +2 MOV?
