[QUOTE="Pinnacle, post: 4067897, member: 59958"] [b]greenstar:[/b] Sorry, I thought most players were familiar with the point-buy method. It's in the DMG, first page of the "Characters" chapter. Instead of rolling for ability scores, you spend points on them. The DMG lists how many points different ability scores cost (although just using the site renau1g listed is probably easier). An 8 is free, and anything higher costs more points, ranging from 1 point for a 9 to 16 points for an 18. [b]Redclaw:[/b] That might be wise. Someone that isn't a rogue-type or a fighter-type, maybe? ;) [b]pathfinderq1:[/b] Any of those is fine. [sblock=GoddessFallenAngel]I could play the provost as someone who only recently hired a bodyguard and isn't used to it yet. He keeps forgetting things like "Don't run up to strangers who call out to him, leaving his bodyguard to chase after him." That could cause your character to feel guilty about failing without the failure actually being his/her fault. I'm just throwing out ideas here. You don't actually have to use any of this.[/sblock] I'm going to ask that nobody who hasn't proposed one already post either a skillmonkey-type or a fighter-type character. Other character types are still ok for new proposals. EDITED to add: Warriors do have a +2 base Fort save, so Alex is short there. Kyria looks fine, but as a member of a House she should maybe have ID papers? And, this may look like an odd question, but would she have taken any history classes at Morgrave? [/QUOTE]
