Message: <blockquote data-quote="jkason" data-source="post: 6398277" data-attributes="member: 2710">Might be worth breaking this out into a separate thread, but my two bits for now: I don't think there's a big issue with adding a new regional, but I think if we did, it should come with a full region proposal. Buloxi certainly sounds different enough from Jirago that it might have a different language, but it also seems possible that Jira'shae, as a language commonly used between so many tribes, may be the Western continent's version of "Common." Knowing Jira'shae doesn't automatically mean someone's Common/Venzan has to sound like Daylilly's (though most of the Jiragans we've seen thus far do), mind.Since I'm here, though, and see them now, I'd also add a bit of a warning on those stats, [MENTION=6778347]FrancisJohn[/MENTION]. They're technically legal, but on top of mechanics, I would definitely expect several of the regular GM's here are going to hold your feet to the fire as you RP a person with 7's in every single mental stat. Siddhartha isn't just a little slow or a little absent-minded or a little off-putting. He's going to be one of the (and, in most cases, the) dimmist, least insightful, most unlikeable characters in the room. At best, there might be someone else there who's down on his level in one of those categories, but even those characters are going to be noticeably better in the others. Heck, Daylily--LPF's poster child for grossness--is going to be more likable than Siddhartha. If you aren't prepared for NPCs to respond to him that way, or for GMs to challenge more than the most basic insights or knowledge he expresses (possibly forcing extra skill rolls for more standard ideas / practices), I would strongly reconsider his current attribute spread.If, on the other hand, you were wanting to and are prepared to play something along the lines of <a href="http://oots.wikia.com/wiki/Thog" target="_blank">Thog</a> with a glass jaw, I'll not stand in your way.</blockquote>
