[QUOTE="Crothian, post: 433979, member: 232"] [b]Re: Interesting conversion ideas[/b] Jubal and Niko might not be, but the other three are. I'm not sure if I'm going to do NPC write-ups. They are hard to do since the books give so little concrete information. I do have the Personalities of Sanctuary which has write ups for them in first edition, but so much has changed since then it will be much more difficult to do. However, people seem to want them, so I may cave in on this. Ya, much of this book will be considered core rules. The demons are the only part that won't be used. The torture devices will be great for Kurd and I'm sure Jubal has a few people with this ability. Diseases are also going to be used because Sanctuary is a filthy place. There are lots of organizations and may will be difficult to make prestige classes, but I'm going to try. Assassin as a core class should be okay. Green Ronin has an Assassin's Handbook that I'm going to look into for that. I also have an Assassin prestige class that removes the magical abilities of the DMG Assassin and adds in some more mundane abilities. I'm using Ilsig as the base language, but most people will speak both. Ilsigs seem to be the most numerous in the city as a whole, yet in the Palace and the Temple district Rankan and Imperial Rankan will be the normal languages. How the party gets together will depend on what people want to play. Then I'll sit down with all of them and get them al together. The last game I played in had four characters: Ilsig fighter/rogue, Corrone fighter, S’Danzo Sorcerer, and an Ilsig Rogue. Through background development we had the Corrone escaping from Corrone. He bought passage on a pirate ship the Ilsig Fighter thief was a slave on. During the journey they became friends and in Sanctuary the Corrone helped the Ilsig escape into Downwind.

I do not allow party infighting or stealing from each other, as that does not promote fun around the gaming table. Their goals are usually survive for a while and to get on top of their current situation. Thanks for the comments and questions; any others please post!! :D [/QUOTE]
