[QUOTE="Ace, post: 1953941, member: 944"] Look at commoners as folks who don't have a lot of opportunities in life-- I don't use Adepts but this is how I see the NPC classes Commoners are folks like shopgirls and farmers who never leave home-- heck slaves too Warriors are conscript soldiers and folks in less professional armies (as vs those with great potential like Fighters) Experts are nearly PC level as a class -- they are the elite of a community that rarely adventure -- Lawyers, Hunters, Sailors but they may face challenges but rarely adventures per se -- Aristocrats are the rich Commoners IMC are usually 3rd level or so --- They face some challenges in life but mostly day to day ones -- hence they never get to be high level Sometimes a commoner will have an event filled life and reach high level without changing the way he lives -- A 20th level farmer (commoner) might be the guy who survived the orc war, the dark lord and the dark years -- still raising crops and never adventuring -- he is probably 80+ and roughly as tough as a 5th level fighter , at least with simple weapons and a salavaged +1 mail coat from some forgotten battle Most of the villagers are broeken down as 1st -- youngsters almost still apprentices 2nd -4th Journeymen -- this is most of the village -- they will probably top out at 4th level -- BAB +2 -- typical farmers don't have skill focus -- they are more likely something like Human L3 10 in all stats Endurance (bonus) Toughness l1 Simple Weapons skills at 6 --- Hp 11 nothing special 5th + These are the skilled and repected farmers -- compotent at what they do (skill 12+ ) able to perform master level works under pressure [/QUOTE]
