[QUOTE="anonystu, post: 777512, member: 10897"] 6th level is go. I think this is a fine start: let me go through my usual suggestions, in the same way, background first, mechanics later. So, there isn't TV: it's just too magically expensive to do. There aren't really legitimate journalism professions either: they all lead to death in the eyes of the law. However, this restructures pretty nicely into: Bambi traveled to the City to try to become a politician's handler, or campaign advisor, or secretary, or even a politician herself, but scandals unfolded with her involvement with the Mage Ball team, and if there's anything worse than a public figure who sleeps around, it's a public figure who sleeps around, isn't available, and has a ridiculously strong guy as a boyfriend. The Daily Float approached her, to be a very minor sports reporter, given her intimate knowledge of the sport. She's had a number of setbacks, controversies, blown stories, but has managed to survive long enough to be promoted to the city beat. Her editor (more about him when we get into the game), was the one who recommended the magical augmentation, and the general playing up of her talents. She's been with her copy editor for a few years now, and while they have very different approaches to getting things done, and quite the number of extremely loud arguments, it seems to work. Mostly. This is of course, just a suggestion: how you two play your relationship together is up to you. Sound good? Mechanics: hp: 4*5 + 6 = 26 Feats: You might want to consider quick draw instead of weapon finesse (which only grants you a +1). While the handy handbag lets you retrieve your weapon as a free action, it's still a move-equivalent to use it. Maybe quick draw + improved initiative. Maybe expertise/improved disarm/snatch weapon (pick up weapons you disarm as a free action, rather than letting them fall). In addition, consider the feat chain of: Persuasive: +2 bluff/intimidate Trustworthy: +2 diplomacy/gather info Alluring (prereq persuasive, trustworthy): +2 diplomacy, +2 to save DC for all mind-affecting/language dependent spells. In any case, overall I like: I feel like it's a good fit, and will be lots of fun! Thanks. [/QUOTE]
