Name: Melon Tusk
Race: Troll (+120p)

Equipment:
+ Blood thorn shield (45p)
+ Iron Gauntlets (16p)

Skills:
+ Fighter 1 (3p)
+ Biter 2 (12p)
+ Striker 2 (12p)
+ Kicker 2 (12p)
+ Dodger 1 (5p)

Backstory:
Melon was ridiculed for his neurotic urge to skewer melons with his tusks from a young age at his uncle's melon farm. The local bullies, other trolls, goblins and
the occasional washed up kobold found out too late that melons are not the only thing he likes to skewer. He adopted the nickname and set forth to find the best, most skewerable things the world has to offer..

A few notes regarding equipment
-Leather Mail Shirts don't exist. the closest leather equivalent is Leather Armor, which also costs 12 points. Mail Shirts refer to a metal armor only.
-Copper Leggings don't exist either. Leggings refer to a leather armor option. If you want metal protection for your legs, these would either be your Chain Leggings, or Greaves. your metal armor options would cost more than the 17.5 points you currently have invested, but a leather option would be cheaper. 

Hope this clears up any confusion. We'll go over your entry again once these things have been edited :>

Leggings and Chain leggings are the same item. The word Chain is just added if they are made from metal.


Also why do silk items cost nothing? Silk has pretty good material properties, at least compared to cloth.

A silk robe is not going to deflect an axe. It's just for flavour.

Wow. I believe Kesperan has just won adventurer mode.

Wait, we can bring silk robes and other things for no cost? It still affects blunt damage.

We know what over-layering to a degree that has a mechanical impact looks like and will not allow it.

Checks out with 0 points remaining. Sorry Nadash, but our man swears you came up to him and signed your name. May your dwarven axe strike true!

 i now see that harp seal man is unavailable. preparing my actual entry hehe

===

"Leppo"

Leopard Seal Man

125 pts

Proficient Wrestler - 60
Adequate Striker - 12
Adequate Kicker - 12
Adequate Biter - 12
Adequate Dodger - 12
Adequate Fighter - 9

banking remaining 8pts

Leppo hails from the northern icewastes, where a close friend of his by the name of 'Harpo' had embarked upon a quest for justice and vengence upon those who hunt seals.

Leppo felt like this was a good idea, and joined up with the harp seal man as fellow hunter of seal hunters.

The two crusaders encountered a grand tournament with a large payoff for the winner, and when 'Harpo' was turned back (on account of looking just like the guy who won that other time), Leppo felt it was his dutiful responsibility as friend to attempt to win the tournament. Leppo has no skill in weapons and would rely entirely on his raw talent as hunter of fish and penguins.

"Harpo"

Adequate dodger is 15 points not 12, which would leave you with 5 points remaining. Is this acceptable?
