[QUOTE="marcoasalazarm, post: 3360300, member: 26698"] That true. VERY true. And now, a new class (adapted from 'The Future Soldier's Battlefield Handbook', by Steampower Publishing). [IMG]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/0/0b/Miridest.jpg[/IMG] [B]Miriailla Haww, CNN (LaGrange) War Correspondent. [/B] (AN: (GSD) Not exactly my fave series from what I managed to hear from it, but the picture's good for this illustration, isn't it?). [B][U][CENTER][COLOR="Red"][SIZE="3"]WAR CORRESPONDENT ADVANCED CLASS.[/SIZE][/COLOR][/CENTER][/U][/B] War might be Hell, but it also gives ratings. Be it during the 1930s or far into the Cosmic Era, on the French countryside or deep in space, War Correspondents face all kinds of dangers in order to obtain the one story that -they believe- will give them recognition and glory. That they -secretly- enjoy the thrill that comes from 'dodging bullets' doesn't helps them, either. On Coreline, some of the best field reporters (and especially those that survived the Hours) are (or were) War Correspondents. They are trusted and respected by their fellow reporters because of their stories, and hated by more than one faction because of their published plans. The fastest route to obtain the War Correspondent Advanced class is theu the Dedicated Hero Basic Class. [B][U]REQUIREMENTS:[/U][/B] To become a War Correspondent, a character must fulfill the following criteria. [B]Skills:[/B] Concentration 8 Ranks, Gather Information 8 Ranks. [B]HIT DIE:[/B] The War Correspondent obtains 1d6 + Con Hit Points per level. [B]CLASS SKILLS:[/B] The War Correspondent's skills are the following: Bluff, Climb, Computer Use, Concentration, Diplomacy, Disguise, Drive, Gather Information, Hide, Intimidate, Jump, Knowledge (History, Military), Listen, Move Silently, Sense Motive, Spot, Survival and Swim. [B]Skill Points per Level:[/B] 5 + Int modifier. [B]TABLE: THE WAR CORRESPONDENT:[/B] (Can't draw the damn table for some reason, so I'll have to put them separately). [B]Class Level:[/B] 1 2 3 4 5 [B]BAB[/B] +0 +0 +1 +1 +1 [B]Fort Save[/B] +0 +0 +1 +1 +2 [B]Ref Save[/B] +1 +2 +3 +4 +5 [B]Will Save[/B] +1 +2 +3 +4 +5 [B]Special[/B] Courage Under Fire Out of Harm's Way Low-Profiel Target Battle Intuition Avoid Trouble [B]Defense Bonus[/B] +1 +1 +2 +2 +3 [B]Reputation Bonus[/B] +2 +2 +2 +3 +3 [B]CLASS FEATURES: Courage Under Fire:[/B] The War Correspondent keeps a straight face and a cool head, even when the most epic (and frantic) of firefights erupt around her. When in the middle of a battle, the War Correspondent adds her class level as a morale bonus to any Concentration checks or Will saves made to resist morale effects. [B]Out of Harm's Way:[/B] There is no better television that the War Correspondent reporting while a battle rages in the background. The War Correspondent is well-versed at putting herself in harm's way and yet surviving unscathed. Even when in the open, the War Correspondent counts as if she was in cover. The Correspondent gains no additional bonuses while in cover. [B]Low-Profile Target:[/B] The War Correspondent might make high-profile news, but even when in the line of fire, they know how to maintain a low profile. So long as the attacker has other potential targets available, he must succeed at a Will save (DC 10 + Correspondent class levels) to target the Correspondent. If the attacker has no such targets, he may target the Correspondent freely. Potential targets are targets that are easy to hit and that the attacker can damage with his weapon-foe example, a sniper faced with the choice whether to shoot the Correspondent and a tank would freely target the Correspondent, as his rifle could not damage the tank. If the Correspondent was standing next to an infantryman, then the sniper would be forced to pass a Will save to target the Correspondent instead of the infantryman. [B]Battle Intuition:[/B] The War Correspondent has a nose for danger and trouble, and is an expert at positioning herself right in the middle of the action.
