Diplomatic Immunity OOC: The Third

Interesting. A Narlsewoman Troubadour would be somewhat unusual, but it could make an interesting character. I can give you some flavour tidbits when I have more time with an internet connection.

Thanks Rystil, as soon as you can shoot something through I can start thinking flavour (which is also going to impact on his items, weapons and armour so that's why they're still blank)

Cheers

That's what it says in the setting document. :)
Other than the racial abilities all I could find on them was this:

Scandaj[Scandajian] (Nardaln[Narlse]): Norse Viking-like setting with islands and longboats
Races- Narlseman, Nibelan, Tralg
Skald, Berserker, Raider, Wrathbringer, Mystic

Mystic: One of the rare magically-talented folk from the world of Nardaln, gaining divine and arcane powers from their own belief in themself. Narlsewomen (who are typically deeply oppressed by their extremely sexist men) are good at the arcane part of being a Mystic and Nibelan are good at the divine part.

It's a start and I have some ideas. What was starting gold for 4th level? And are there any special rules for purchasing items?

Cheers

Starting gold varies, and the purchasing rules change by world. Sadly that's all the information we have about the Narlsemen, as I don't think anyone has looked much further than that. There's only even a Mystic writeup, because it was one of the classes I initially asked about. ;)
 

What sort of other info would you guys like to see? (and by you guys, I mostly mean Dazza)

Life for most Narlsewomen is brutishly oppressive. They live in a society that treats them like property, soil to grow new warriors, though perhaps if they are very lucky, they might actually have feelings for the man who owns them. They are better off for the younger years, at first treated with fond affection by their mothers (the women belonging to their father often share in this task--most Narlsemen who have reached majority for a significant time own 1 to 3 wives), as their fathers pay more attention to the rarer males (about 75% of Narlse children are female), and then if among the prettiest, slightly pampered by their fathers to keep them looking desirable for a profitable unloading. Once married, that generally changes, as she leaves her family forever, perhaps never to see them again if her husband lives very far away, and enters a new household where she is expected to perform domestic tasks and breed babies.

Of course, this is if she is LUCKY. If not, she might kidnapped by the Nibelan or the Tralgs, two races which do not have any females of their own and thus use Narlsewomen as breeding stock as well--always producing monstrous offspring like their fathers.
 

Oh, and as for money and purchasing, that depends on her primary background region. As a Troubadour, it may not actually be Scandaj.

Oh, and you should have asked whether you could use Force of Personality. The answer is yes, though ;) (Though we did have a case of spells from Complete Divine that I don't allow being selected, as well as one preemptive nixing of Elusive Target by me)

Well I'm always happy to hunt for information when making a character, so what's available is fine for me, though a little bit on each race like you've just done would probably be helpful for the setting document. ;)
