Mathalus - I actually thought the same thing. Maybe Ferranatos will later find out that both the axe and an antecedent are needed in order to cut stone, or some variation thereof. I think there are a lot of ways we could go with it. Now I'm getting antsy. When do we start?

Yes! I was thinking of something exactly along those lines. Also, Constance wants to learn about Dwarven secrets. Surely the axe is a great secret amongst the dwarves. She might want to lay claim to it too (that would be a belief that could come up later if Kobold Stew wanted to go that...

I need to come up with a 4th belief. I was thinking of playing of my dwarven greed with something like, "I will find Thror's axe in the Caves of Chaos and become the most renowned dwarf in the Keep." What do you guys think? It could potentially play off the beliefs of Ferranatos, Vellykyr...

I like the one about Aurvang. Having another character in the group encouraging him to drink would bring a lot to the game. I also like Constance's instinct to find an exit. That could lead to some interesting situations when we are underground.

HandofMystra - What about a belief showing that you are willing to work with Thyatians for the time being because it serves your interest of keeping the borders safe. There's nothing saying that you have to like them, or even save them if they fall in harm's way. They are just tools for a...

Ok, cool. I like Gloi as the NPC, mainly because I think the other NPC, Lofar, could be tied into my search for Gloi. I dropped the relationship with Lofar. It can spring up organically through play. I'll drop the Belief pertaining to Lofar and add the Deep-sense one, keeping my original...

Ok, let me know about the NPC's and beliefs. I need some time to think about it; again, suggestions are welcome. Today's a busy day so I might not have too much time to work on it, but what about something like, "When underground always use Deep-sense to locate an exit tunnel." or...

Interesting. Kobold Stew - any ideas for why Constance might have persuaded a dwarven soldier to help her? I don't think a dwarf would make an oath lightly, so it'd have to be something pretty big. I think Aurvang's drinking could definitely explain how he knows Constance and even her...

Name: Aurvang Concept/Bio: A young, but seasoned host soldier looking for adventure. Lifepaths: Born Clansman, Delver, Lead to Dwarven Host, Foot Soldier Age : 51 Stats: Wi: B4, Pe: B4, Po: B4, Fo: B5, Ag: B4, Sp: B4, Speed Mult.: x3 Attributes: Ref: B4, Ste: B5, Hes: 6, Hea: B6, MW: B11, Greed...

Yeah, I was wondering about that. If the GM allows it, then I may take an axe and shield instead of the hammer. I rather like both my relationships, so I don't want to give one up in order to have both weapons. Of course, it probably won't be that hard to procure an axe and shield in game...

Okay, here is what I have so far. I am open to any suggestions/recommendations to make him a better character. One thing is that I wanted him to begin with an axe/shield to make him even more of a tank but I just didn't have the rps to do it. Also, anyone know how much a non-dwarven shield...

Most likely not, but I plan to work some of that into his beliefs :) I'm assuming that the lifepath restrictions of BW still apply for Burning ThacO, meaning, if a LP has a prerequisite LP in BW, that holds for BThacO as well. That's makes my options for a dwarven fighter limited, but that's...

Hey guys, I'm the poster from the BW forums. I'm working on burning up a "tank" for the group. I've burned a few characters on my own, so I should be ok with that. I might need some advice on the setting as I'm not familiar with it, but I'll do some reading. Oh yeah, there's no more...

Great stuff! Sanzuo: this is very inspiring, since I hope to run a similarly open-ended, character-based Dark Sun game myself. Any advice? What about bringing a tangible Dark Sun feel to the city-states? Besides encounter-types, have you come up with any other tricks? I wasn't planning on...
