[QUOTE="engrishonly, post: 5423176, member: 38460"] I'll have to look up the trait. It could just be as a funky character trait temporarily until we get time for a vote. As I recall, there were some penalties involved with being one-eyed... can't remember any benefits. I'll check it out, anyway. Also, I don't know if people without the Character Burner are allowed access to online burning sites... Hopefully I can be clear enough to get it all wrapped up for our Paladin comrade. Anyway, onto the scathing criticism! ;) Belief 1... I'm not sure about this. The first half is cool, as is the second half, but they kind of don't fit well enough for my tastes. I liked the idea that Ferrantos was going to the Caves of Chaos to find something. Why not name it here? A general search for materials is harder for me to work with (it could be anything & it could be nothing). Name the thing, and as we go along, figure out "Is this the thing I seek?" I can discuss it with you further if you want ideas for the thing. And I think the relationship with Vellekhyr is better in a separate slot. Belief 2... I'm not sure I like this one at this time. It's occupying a slot & it doesn't quite fit since there's no blade at the moment, so it's kind of general & might not help. Keep this idea in your back pocket when the blade is closer to becoming reality. Belief 3... I wish it said more about Ferrantos. I wish it were more of an ethical/philosophical statement with actions/goals tied to it. At this point, it's closer to Instinct than Belief, IMO. Anyway, that's my Belief feedback. I get kinda picky with these because it's how you tell me what you want. I'm always asking for more! Instinct 1 is solid & will serve us well. Instinct 2 is okay... I'm just not sold on antecedents as a general concept right now. Instinct 3 seems like the typical skill-based instinct, so no real comment from me. You don't have the typical "awkward social situation" Insinct, like "Never let them forget I am Noble born". If you're okay with these, then cool. Otherwise, 1 & 3 are cool. The one to think about is the antecedents thing. I think the whole line of the antecedents story needs tightening, IMO. It will work, but I wish it were more specific. Alrighty. We'll see how the others generate their Relationships. I'd like someone to have a major NPC that I can throw into the situation, but it's not important that anyone do so. [/QUOTE]
