[QUOTE="Majin, post: 1040987, member: 13265"] Bit of background for your approval with suggestion for the magical item. My character is a prince from some kingdom. (This can be be left up to you depending on where the campaign will take place, etc.) His family tried for years to groom him as the heir to the kingdom but he never fit in, so chose to strike out on his own. (With no monetary help from his family as they do not support his decision to leave). The only thing that was given to him was a special family cloak. Black silk with a blood red liner clasped together by a family brooch. How does this sound? As he is technically an outcast from his family the character cannot use his families wealth or name to get him out of trouble, as all that was given to him was the cloak. I'm not sure what your looking for in the ways of how magical this item will be so I'll leave it up to you to think up stats for it, or we can toss back and forth some ideas. For my bonus feat I'd choose Weapon Focus (Longsword) as swordfighting was taught to my character from a young age as part of his grooming. For the skills bonus I'd pick Intimidate, as just a little of his heritage has rubbed off on him, making him a tad bit "holier than thou" towards most people, and would try to use his family name as a way to influence people that would know of his family. (Regardless of whether or not he would get away with this as stated above, but I believe nontheless the way he would carry himself would affect some people as being quite different than the norm. Edit: BTW is this 3.0 or 3.5? And excuse my forgetfulness but how exactly does point buy work? It starts all stats at 10 automatically right, or is it 8? Or something entirely different? I don't recall as I don't use this method to make characters. [/QUOTE]
