We need to vote on the setting.

ummm okay what do you want me to change though...I DONT UNDASTAND ):

Never mind. :)

Name: Zrk2
Nick Name: -
Race: Human
Occupation: Mercernary
Bio: After years of working for the various trader cities Zrk2 has decided to go adventuring. Has many mysterious connections, and while an average fighter, he is an excellent strategist.
Abilities: Playing dirty (+1 when on ground, or attacking from behind)
Special connections (+1 when talking to strangers)
Skills: -Decent hammerman
-Excellent strategist
-Wealthy (Fits here, as I can pay people off...)
armor: -Steel partial plate over chainmail and leather
weapon: -Steel warhammer (Not over sized like usually imagined, but actually with a small head, so it can easily penetrate armour (+1 attack?)
inventory:
-The Art of War
-Lots of monies

I'm thinking something like this:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

EDIT: Found another picture...

Alright. By the way, your weapon doesn't give you +1 to attack. Your skills do. The weapon's material means it will penetrate armor, etc. Some weapons that are especially well made (masterwork, anyone?) give bonuses but you can't really start with those since that would ruin player progression.

(5) You manage to struggle free of the guards and sprint to a safe distance before tossing a knife at one! (5 + 1 = 6) The throwing knife zips through the air, slitting a guard's throat! It then travels around the group of guards like a boomerang. It (5) Slits another throat, (Three 6's in a row!) decapitates three more (!), (4) slices open the last guard's arm, and (2) narrowly misses a random bystander. It then flies back into your hand. Holy crap.

Nein, Mein gott nein!
Agreed.

I vote for clumps of low plains in mountains. Wet Rockies-type climate. Nearing winter. Starting at a small town.

Quote from: Phantom
Unknown to most but the insane and the mystics, Tarran is actually Earth itself, as Earth is sentient like that planet in Avatar. Originally Earth used names such as Terra on the internet, but to protect it's identity it changed letters, now becoming the Tarran you know today.
Quote from: Ze Spy
Tarran has the "Tarran Bug", a bug which causes the affected character to repeatedly hit teammates while dual-wielding instead of whatever the hell he is shooting at.

Great to hear that your mostly alright with my character, I was worrying about him with the bionics.
I've taken your suggestions into account, no magic.

Oh, seeing as this is steampunk, can I has a pistol too? And I like the setting idea mentioned above.

So, no weapon bonus, but how about the other ones?
