RECRUITING - Weapons of the Gods: Bei Clan Tournament

The Tings are only 20 Destiny (they are presented as low level thugs)
the promo also features a 80 destiny Courtier and a 70 Destiny Scholar

However EOS also has a character generator-woohoo!!!

I take it we have 50 Destiny Attributes 15 and Skills 30

the difficulty is knowing what each Advantage/Disad and Kung Fu style can do

for instance what is meant by Brutal/Artful

I get to checking out the free stuff when I get home from work, Some of the best times I've ever had were in learning games

BACKGROUNDS
As Chu Pa-Chieh tells it he was once the commander of a legion of elite warriors who protected the 'western border' until they were overrun by 'demons' and by sheer grit he was left as the only survivor. Chu Pa Chieh retired then and became a wanderer learning more about his combat arts and in particular the Iron Fists of the Bei Brotherhood.

The more likely story is that Chu Pa-Chieh was a minor official in the army but was dishonourably discharged due to his drunkeness and womanizing. Chu Pa-Chieh is a hedonist obsessed with finding the ultimate experience to satisfy his base urges. He has lived as a thug and con-man using his performance skills to bluff his way through.

Of course in a pinch he can also call on his awesome strength, his skills of kung fu and his mighty melon hammer to get him out alive...

DISADVANTAGES
Unwholesome

EQUIPMENT - Melon Hammer, Bite, Medium Armor, Punch Or Kick

TREASURES -

Brutal, Artful, Ranged are weapon types.

Your passion is what drives you as a person. If you're driven in life by gluttony, that's pretty said.

Example with my own character, Daring Pengu

Passion: Obsession - To increase awareness of his greatness though deeds and training

Sad I know but true and its gluttony at its broadest meaning. Chu Pa-Chieh is a hedonist who lives to satisfy his base urges in the most sensational, indulgent and creative manner possible, to find the ultimate experience that makes all of life worthwhile

So, just as he would partake in the best wines, he's also a thrill seeker to find the ultimate experience?

Click to expand...

He (over) indulges in good wine, rich food, exotic women and thrilling experience. He'll try anything just for the chance to discover what it 'feels' like

Exotic Wine, Rich Women, Trilling Food, Good Experiences, got it

How does this look?

Brief Backround
Keito years on a farm and depite his responsibilities as soon as he was able he struck out on his own. He was going to be rich, he was going to find adventure, and women and he name would become known throughout the empire. He failed and after several years on his own he returned to the farm, with nothing more than what he left with. He arrived to find everything changed and everyone gone.

While he was gone his father had become ill, and without an able bodied person to work the land, the entire family fell quicky into debt with a petty lord. When he came to collect he took the last things they owned, their land and their freedom, "allowing" them to work off their debt by putting them to work in a manner only befitting slaves.

Keito has vowed to free his family and recover their land, either by buying them back or by taking them by force[/sblock]

I'd suggest pulling it out of the background, but I don't see a problem. Obviously, I'll have to explain the Martial arts.

The easy one, is light foot. Lets you move fast. Level 3 is Crouching Camraman Hidden Wires type of flying, including the ability to hang in mid air. Level 1 lets you move extra as a free action, level 2 I believe lets you bounce around quickly, but not quite fly.

FYI, to use a technique, you must use your chi. Some require specific chi, and some can use any (like Lightfoot). You have as many Chi of a specific type based on your attribute (So 5 Might gives you 5 Jade chi). Each technique uses 1 chi per the technique level. So the level 3 Lightfoot technique requires the use of any 3 color chi per round. You regenerate Chi at a rate of 1 of each color per round of combat/segment of action.

I'm looking into what I can and can't post about techniques.
