[QUOTE="GMMichael, post: 8938474, member: 6685730"] [URL unfurl="true"]https://modos-rpg.obsidianportal.com/wikis/fastplayrules[/URL] Let's make a character now. I have about 5 minutes before bed... Name: Qarl Brander Level: let's start with 1. Concept: sounds like a SoIaF-style rancher. Especially with the Q in the name. Goal: make his tribe proud. But...his favorite calf disappeared, and he's trying to get her back. Flaw: very low on non-rancher experience. Physical, Mental, Meta: metaphysical is probably his weak spot...let's go 12, 10, 8, and put the first-level point in Physical for 13. Skills: handle (cattle) 1 Perks: this part can take a bit if you don't know the perks list. It's quick to just take the Skill Point or Attribute Point perk, but let's take Martial Artist and say that he has some Dothraki contacts/upbringing. Gear: a brand, obviously. Crummy weapon, so it's probably a d4.
