[QUOTE="Cor Azer, post: 5698656, member: 870"] At this point, the cast page is looking like the following. I'm also including a few game mechanic-y things, upon which I invite comment. A general note for the half-demony among you: the Secret drawback was not factored into your Half-Demon qualities, because you may or may not want to keep it a secret. For those that do want such a secret kept (or at least, not general knowledge), you may want to pick up the Secret drawback to offset some of the cost of your Half-demon-ness. Also, for those unfamiliar with Unisystem, an Attribute of 2 is human average, 6 is human max (although non-humans can go higher). Herobizkit playing Rory Shanahan half-fae Celtic rocker/warlock [sblock=Half-fae Quality]Half-fae Quality (6): Immortal (0): won't die of old age, but violence still hurts Acute Senses (2): keen hearing Attractiveness +1 (1): bonus to any roll where persuading people is a factor Vulnerability to Cold Iron (-3): A classic fae weakness I just threw in; if you don't like it, we can drop it, and the cost of the whole package is increased by 3. Occult +1 (1): 1 free level in Occult Dexterity +2 (2): gain +2 to Dexterity Fae Magics (3): +5 bonus to magic rolls when dealing with illusions or charms[/sblock] Walking Dad playing... some type of White Hat. Concept pending. DrZombie playing either a football jock or a Slayer (DrZ and Shayuri - fight!) jkason playing Gavin Petersen, a half-Poena Epulum demon pre-med student. [sblock=Half-Poena Epulum Quality]Half-Poena Epulum Quality (13): Supernatural Sense - Pain (3): A Perception + Notice check can learn the life point total of 1 creature per success in a 100ft radius. Supernatural Attack - Deliver Pain (4): A Dexterity + Kung-fu attack to deal 20 damage Supernatural Unattack - Feast on Pain (4): A Intelligence + Doctor check to heal 2 x Intelligence damage Editted: on second thought, tge original version seemed way too powerful; far better than a Drama point; this tones it down some, and I may yet drop the x2 modifier... Doctor +1 (1): 1 free level in Doctor, because Poena Epulum naturally understand biological systems. Mental Problems - Cruelty (-1): The base tendencies of the Poena Epulum involve inflicting pain.[/sblock] airwalkrr playing Rees Dafydd, a modernized Watcher. [sblock=Rees Dafydd]Rees Dafydd, Watcher White Hat (15 Attribute points, 10 Quality points, up to 10 Drawback points, 15 Skill points, 20 Drama points) Attributes Strength: 2 Dexterity: 2 Constitution: 3 (+1 from Watcher quality) Intelligence: 5 (+1 from Nerd quality) Perception: 2 Willpower: 4 (+1 from nerd quality) Life Points: 30 Drama Points: 20 Qualities (12 spent): Watcher (5): +1 to a physical attribute, +2 Getting Medieval, +2 to any roll when learning about demons, vampires, etc. Nerd (3): +1 to two mental attributes, +2 to one of Computers, Knowledge, Science; -1 to any roll involving social interaction Resources - Well-off (2) (freelance computer programming): personal wealth of ~300,000USD, monthly gross income of ~10,000USD Occult Library - Good (2): no modifier to research rolls; holds d10 + 30 spells Drawbacks (2 earned for Qualities, 6 earned for Skills): Adversary - various minor ones (2): Demons no like watchers, they tend to have Slayers Talentless (2): Rees has no artistic ability. Note the period. His logical programming mind has all but completely devoured his expressive creativity. Showoff (2): Given all the degrees he's earned at this young age, Rees' bragging can almost be expected, if not outright forgiven... Obligation - Major (2): Rees has been sent to Waterloo to guide and mold a Slayer. Skills (21 spent): Acrobatics 0 Art 0 Computers 7 (+2 from Nerd quality) Crime 0 Doctor 0 Driving 1 Getting Medieval 2 (+2 from Watcher quality) Gun Fu 0 Influence 1 Knowledge 3 Kung Fu 2 Languages 2 - English +1 other (programming languages don't count) Mr. Fix-it 0 Notice 1 Occultism 4 Science 2 Sports 0 Wild Card 0 Sample Combat Maneuvers: Dodge: Dex + Getting Medieval or Dex + Kung Fu: +4 Punch: Dex + Kung Fu: +4; base damage 4 bash Stake: Dex + Getting Medieval: +4; base damage 4 slash/stab - Through Heart: Dex + Getting Medieval -3: +1; damage x5 vs vamps Crossbow: Dex + Getting Medieval: +4; base damage 16 slash/stab [/sblock] Systole is playing Rechard Butler, a (nigh-?) immortal human art/history professor Shayuri is playing either a Slayer or some sort of Zeppo (again... fight!) Acmite is playing someone who'll get in trouble on Thursday. [/QUOTE]
