[QUOTE="Tomanta, post: 1891540, member: 860"] Here's a draft sheet for Tomanta. I looked at Bard, but just couldn't see it fitting Tom. Nor does the 'scholar' description - he's more of a fighter and lets his girlfriend and sister do that researchy stuff :). Also, you might have misunderstood Tomanta's social standing... but see his background. I may play with the skills/feats a little more, and I still need to purchase equipment and the like. Primary weapons will probably be a sword and bow of some sort, will likely have studded leather armor. I may tweak the background some, too, but the general ideas can come across.
