[QUOTE="Quickleaf, post: 7225859, member: 20323"] [MENTION=6883571]Firathor[/MENTION] Looking over Ferdinand of the noble house Dorian, Witcher of the Wolf School, great weapon master, former soldier in the Blue Stripes and patriotic TEMERIAN... Mechanically, everything looks kosher. Did you already select your bonus equipment option from the OP? There's a list of 12 options at bottom of my OP. Story-wise, Ferdinand is as anti-Nilfgaardian as they come. If we were running a game set in Temeria, it'd be easy to tie him into things. But the story starts in Dol Blathanna. I make that very clear in my OP. So... We'll need to devise a damn good reason for him to be so far east of occupied Temeria, near Dol Blathanna, land of the elves. How does he know about Odvara and why does he care? My OP is really clear about the story. I'd help more, but I need more to go off of, and really this is your job as a player to tie your PC into the story & party. FYI, I'm not planning on thrusting Ferdinand into the scene mid-fight. I just did that with Barakor [MENTION=6672752]Aramalian[/MENTION], and while I was able to pull it off, having that happen again would be verging into slapstick comedy. We need to devise a more nuanced intro for Ferdinand. I'd recommend looking back over our [url=http://www.enworld.org/forum/showthread.php?460284-Rogues-Gallery-Witcher-Mother-of-Monsters&p=6645280#post6645280]Rogues Gallery[/url] of character sheets for commonalities... Fergus [MENTION=2820]Fenris[/MENTION] has a Soldier background, but his backstory presents him as a consummate wandering witcher from Skellige who was never part of a military unit. So...if Fenris wants to expound on his Soldier background and make some connection to your PC (vis a vis the Blue Stripes or another military unit like the Free Slopes), that's up to you guys to figure out.
