[QUOTE="Blue_Genie, post: 1814701, member: 13477"] Just a few things, Karl. The racial/national distinctions can be a little confusing in the Iron Kingdoms. You are of Midlunder ancestry, but are a citizen of the country of Cygnar. [I]Magic Weapon[/I] is no longer on the Sor/Wiz spell list, it's on the Gun Mage spell list. If you'd like to pick another spell off a non-SRD spell list let me know, and I'll be happy to vet it for you. Total cost should be 225 gp (37.5 x 6) You get a patronage benefit of one extra language for free. This could either be a new language, or you could learn how to write Rhulic instead. Also a note in general. Having run an IK campaign, I can tell you that if you want to be very useful in combat with firearms, you'll want more than one. With the 1 standard action reload rate, you'll only be firing every other round. Granted, you'll be doing more damage than your standard 1d6 shortbow, but I would suggest you might want to switch your equipment around a bit and get a second or third pistol. You don't want to be reloading in combat. The DC for the skill check is easy enough to beat, but they're standard actions that provoke attacks of opportunity. Finally, here's a bit more about Midlunders from the IKCG. Dominating the northern regions of Cygnar, the Midlunder population is second only to the Caspians and a more obstinate breed doesn't exist. These no-nonsense, rugged folk look for the most practical means of accomplishing a task, and won't quite until it's done. However, their practicality suffers when their obstinacy takes a firm grip of their faculties. Even if a Midlunder realized he wasn't going about something in finest fashion, he'd be damned before he'd let on that he was proceeding in the wrong. Seems foolish, but nevertheless, if a task falls to a Midlunder, it'll be finished-and finished well- one way or the other. This in mind, it stands to reason that Midlunders make up the majority of Cygnar's armed forces. Their complete inability to admit defeat makes them the most steadfast soldiers in all the kingdoms. This tenacity and bull-headedness has served Cygnar's troops well in many a difficult conflict. Most Midlunders have hair of brown, auburn, or ginger, but lighter colored locks are not uncommon. Their skin ranges from pale to ruddy, and their physiques very from thin to full-bodied. Though stereotyped as stern and humorless, in truth, Midlund mannerisms run the gamut, though their bull-headed stubbornness is practically guaranteed. [/QUOTE]
