[QUOTE="covaithe, post: 4959432, member: 46559"] @WD: No mechanics notes just yet, because there's not much mechanical in there to comment on. Do you have a CB file you can send me? Username on gmail is covaithe. If not, that's cool, I'll just have to try to build it myself in CB from your notes. Only mechanical comment: off the top of my head, 1d8+13 looks like low damage for an epic BMA. Are you sure it shouldn't be 2d8? And I'm guessing that your minor magic item purchases, e.g. bracers, will bump it up further? Regarding background, we can certainly work with what you have. It would be convenient if you could find some reason to be in Zvomarana already; a pilgrimage of your own, perhaps, or to seek out a famous trainer among the monks who live there. Hmm... further brainstorming follows... what you've got there for background seems to indicate that you're still a slave. Why would an epic warrior continue to suffer slavery, when you could easily win your way free by force, or even purchase your freedom with your winnings, or wagers made on you on your behalf? Perhaps you've been free for a while, but still fight in the arena for your own reasons? That would be consistent with taking a few months off to seek a famous trainer. You've got Criminal (Assassin) down as a background; would Fury actually take a contract to kill someone for money? That would make an interesting hook. ;) Or, might he perhaps hire out as a mercenary? That could be useful. [/QUOTE]
