[QUOTE="ghostcat, post: 4617869, member: 30034"] Here's my initial attempt at a Half Elf Monk. I still need to work out starting money and equipment. I also need to finalise the Traits. As far a traits are concerned, my background implies that he has a trait that makes Diplomacy a class skill. In which case, the campaign trait would be "Looking For Work" (+1 to Intimidate) Is this OK? At the moment part of my background is DM ONLY. This is because it contains information that it not generally know in the world. If you like, I can make this "Player Information" [sblock="Chan Ti Male Half Elf Monk 1"] Str: 13 (3 points) Dex: 16 (5 points to 14, +2 Half Elf Bonus) Con: 12 (2 points) Int: 10 (0 points) Wis: 14 (5 points) Cha: 10 (0 points) Half Elf (Tien heritage). 30 ft. base move, Low-Light Vision, Keen Senses (+2 Perception sight/sound), Elven Immunities (immune to magic sleep, +2 against enchantment), Adaptability (Skill Focus as bonus feat), Elf Blood Favoured Class Monk.

Ti's features are fairly nondescript, with brown eyes and a long thin face. However, this is made up for by his hair which is dark orange worn in a Mohecan cut. [/sblock] [sblock="Background"]Ti does not know his parents. All he knows is that his mother sold him into the service of the Di-Chan order when he was a baby. From that day until his 23 year, Ti was cloistered in the Di-Chan monastery, perfecting his art and skills. To give the novice experience of the world outside of the monastery, they are taken to town near the monastery during the final year of their novitiate. There they are given a series of tests. These tests always take the same form, the novice has to follow someone for 24 hours and then use his dipolmacy skills to determine what the target was doing. Ti was given three of these tests: In the first test, he fell for the charms of a pretty young whore and totally blow it. In the second test, Ti was introduced to drinking and gambling and woke up in the gutter broke and hung over. By the time of the third test, Ti had become a little more streetwise and managed to ignore the various temptations that where put in his path and completed his mission. Shortly after his third test, Ti was initiated in the Di-Chan order and was told to go out in to the world and perfect his art. [/sblock] [sblock="Background DM ONLY"]The Di-Chan Order The Di-Chan order maintains a monastery in a hidden valley in the foothills. To the Novices, Initiates and the few outsiders that know about it, the Di-Chan is just an order of monks dedicated to the perfection of the marshal arts. While this is true as far as it goes, the order actually supports itself by acting as an information broker. Its initiates roam the world and report back to the monastery. There, the information is collated and sold. Occasionally, one of the Initiates will receive orders either to go on a specific mission or to obtain a specific piece of information. Ti was ordered to report anything "interesting" back to the monastery. (A part of Ti's training involved learning how to recognise what was of interest to the order.) [/sblock] [/QUOTE]
