[QUOTE="perrinmiller, post: 6750520, member: 88649"] No worries. I figure that each exchange would be 1 post each. Sometimes, I could see a follow-up with a little bit of dialog only being appropriate though. Btw, we have 3 solid participates active right now and I am looking to start making progress on some character generation as the prologues continue. Keep in mind the characters are probably going to learn/develop some things in the time gap from Prologue to Chapter 1. Each PC should have an idea of their basic traits. Strength Agility Health Perception Wisdom Luck Based on what you think, assign an adjective to describe each (Good, Above Average, Average, or Below Average). Consider the traits being balanced on a bell curve with 1 high, 1 low, and the other 4 split between the middle two. Then consider some skills (about 10 for now) you think your character would have at least some training/competency in from this list: [sblock=Skills (Trained & Untrained, and Combat)]Acrobatics (includes Balance, Jump and Balance) Climb Computer Use - Trained Craft (be specific) Decipher Script & Linguistics - Trained Demolitions Disable Device (includes trapfinding with it) - Trained Disguise (includes perform acting with it) Drive Escape Artist Forgery - Trained Gamble Gather Information (includes Research) Handle Animals (for animal trainers) - Trained Horseback Riding (includes handle animal for horses) Intimidate Investigate - Trained Knowledge Arcane Lore - Trained Knowledge Business - Trained Knowledge Civics - Trained Knowledge Current Events - Trained Knowledge Earth & Life Sciences - Trained Knowledge History (can use Trait instead) - Trained Knowledge Physical Sciences - Trained Knowledge Popular Culture - Trained Knowledge Streetwise - Trained Knowledge Tactics - Trained Knowledge Technology - Trained Knowledge Theology and Philosophy - Trained Language (Read/Write & Speak) (be Specific) - Trained Navigation - Trained Occupation or Profession (be specific) Perform (be specific) Persuasion (includes bluff, diplomacy, and negotiation) Repair - Trained Ride Sleight of Hand - Trained Spellcraft (includes read magic & required for spell casting) - Trained Stealth (Combines Hide and Move Silently) Survival Swim Treat Injury Archaic Weapons Skill (swords, bows, etc…) Armor Proficiency Unarmed Combat (includes Brawl and Combat Martial Arts) Exotic Melee Weapon Skill (be Specific) Firearms Weapon Skill (semi-automatic, single shot) Heavy Weapons Skill (automatic & rocket/grenade launchers) Gunnery Skill (artillery, mounted, non-portable) Simple Weapons Skill (knives, clubs, etc…)[/sblock] [/QUOTE]
