[QUOTE="Boddynock, post: 4510062, member: 21506"] Hi, airwalkrr! How about a barbarian? This is a character concept I came up with, and I've used the point-buy option. Hope you like him. :) (Of course, if there were a tribe of barbarians somewhere nearer, I could rework the background a bit, if you'd rather have him be a local.)
