ENnies winner and NOT Scrappy Doo
Mid fall last year I wrote a manuscript for Paradigm Concepts, and they mailed me a "care package" including Codex Arcanis. Well, my romm-mate fell in love with the setting, and we decided to give it a spin. Initially we were going to run our first ever "Living Campaign" game in Arcanis (32 point buy), but when the characters were decided upon, we elected to run a house game instead of a living campaign since we don't have the variety of characters necessary for the average module...
And here is why:
Brenwynn
Male Wind Elorii (elf) Rogue 1
Str 10, Dex 20, Con 12, Int 14, Wis 6, Cha 12
Wears black studded leather, carries 3 balanced throwing knives and a rapier. Has all the skills to become a Thief-Acrobat in time (and this is his goal). 3-4 ranks each in Balance, Climb, Disable Device, Hide, Jump, Move Silenty, Listen, and Pick Pocket. Incredibly impetuous and unwise, Brenwynn left the woodland home of the Elorii along with two friends, the Fire Elf rogue Keleosanna and the Life Elf rogue Mastioo. Together they travelled south to the Blessed Lands and the First City. There they followed caravans and such into the Coryani Empire and finally to the small frontier city of Trallith where our story begins.
Keleosanna
Female Fire Elorii (elf) Rogue 1
Str 12, Dex 16, Con 12, Int 17, Wis 10, Cha 12
Wears red studded leather, carries a shortbow and silvered dagger. Intends to find a mentor in the magical arts to become a wizard. Has 3+ ranks in Disable Device, Innuendo, Intimidate, Listen, Move Silently, Search, & Spot. She has a fiery personality and no skills to help her earn an honest living. If anything, she is the motivator of the group, seeking adventure and excitement more than anything else, as she has no skills or talents beyond those of dishonesty.
and finally
Guy Lockheart
Male Kio (human) Rogue 1
Str 14, Dex 14, Con 14, Int 12, Wis 12, Cha 14
This man is Mr Charming. A big grin from ear-to-ear precedes him. He was born on a boat, the fourth cousin of a homeless merchant prince. He would travel ahead of the family into the cities of Mhyrcia in the Western Principalities to play mystery shopper. But looking for fame and fortune (and a chance to become a prince once he returns to the Western Lands), he has travelled up the river into the Sea of Coryan, and from there to the frontier city of Trallith, which has just recently become the home of a legion of Coryani Centurions. Here he has become the faceman for a pair of elorii that he met here on his first day in the city.
And they are now looking to join the Trallith Thieve's Guild.
