Appearance:
Brice is a fairly average looking lad of smaller stature and build. He is in good shape, which gives him a fair enough build and makes him attractive enough, but there is little particularly notable about the brown haired, green eyed man beyond the large sword he usually carries on his back.

Personality:
Brice is strong willed, level headed, proper, well spoken and confident. At least, he is when women are not involved. When around women, most particularly in dealing with them, he becomes star crossed, and can not help but fall for them. He begins to stammer, becomes insecure, can hardly string two sentences together, or sometimes simply fades into the background.

Background:
Brice was born to Jean and Cosette Fortimide, their third son and child (Mathis and Sacha being the other two, in order of birth). Jean was an upstanding member of the Musketeers, and Cosette, a lesser daughter of a minor noble family. Jean was a master swordsman, skilled with the greatsword, and quite skilled in the maneuvering in the courts. He had a fine reputation as a man of the king and a musketeer, and with three healthy sons and a lovely wife, things looked promising at home as well.

Jean, being a bit of a ladies man, had an on again off again fling with a married noblewoman, Emeline DeLosera. Emeline felt it was more than a passing fling, and had ambitions beyond her status as well as her gender. It was fate that Brice fell ill that morning, and was left by Cosette under the care of a midwife as she traveled with her other sons to see her father. Jean was in Emeline’s arms when Cosette’s carriage was attacked, and the she was brutalized and raped before everyone in the carriage was killed.

Despite his indescressions, Jean loved Cosette dearly, and her death took him hard. Harder still when he learned of Emeline’s plot when he foiled an assassination plot against her husband, also orchestrated by her. Jean left the Musketeers, still in good standing, and went to concentrate on holding on to the one think he had left of his love, his son Brice. Jean, however, would never touch nor eye another woman again, feeling he had betrayed his love more than enough already.

Brice was a mere lad of 5 when this all transpired, knew very little of his mother. His father, still in need of a living, turned his court skills towards being a merchant, and built a reputable trading business for himself, dealing with many of the court’s finer thing, and a favorable supplier of many noble families. Brice learned to work the courts and people from his father, and he also learned his father’s skill for the Greatsword, for no son of Jeans would be a slouch in a duel.

Brice also developed a unique voice, one that turned heads and earned him a reputation as a performer. He had range few men could match, and near perfect pitch and tone. Indeed, his voice had a near mystical quality, and Jean, no slouch with a flute, often accompanied his son when he chose to perform. Jean was proudest of his son when he sang, and Brice’s few memories of his mother singing inspired him to keep practicing, to come closer to her.

Jean taught his son what he could, imparting his morals, skills, and loyalty to the king to Brice. However, Jean’s avoidance of women rubbed off on Brice as well. Having never observed a proper loving relationship up close, nor seen his father even look at another woman, Brice found it hard dealing with the fairer sex. Indeed, upon spotting one, it sent his heart aflutter, his heart pumping, his mind racing, and his body yearning. Indeed, Brice falls hard and fast for just about anything feminine that would give him the time of day. The confident young man he’d become quickly melted away into a quivering mass of nerves.

Often content to hide in the background when he could, he would often stammer, blush, or otherwise stumble over himself around women. Love came and went easily with him, and it was more than just the lust of spying a woman. He was putty in the hands of a woman who wished him to be. As a gentleman and a sweet, upstanding boy, he found himself always the friend, and never the lover, and that bothered him not one bit, for as long as the women were happy, he was happy. And his feelings of love, well, he had neither the confidence to act or speak of them, nor the knowledge to do so if he could get the courage.

As Brice became old enough to fend for himself, he sought out the Musketeers, to join and serve like his father did, for the good of the King and the country. Among the ranks of men he was safe from his problems with women, or so perhaps he’d hoped, and with his father’s sword and his mother’s locket, he was off to make a name for himself, and make his father proud.

Wow.

4d6.takeHighest(3)=10, 4d6.takeHighest(3)=6, 4d6.takeHighest(3)=10, 4d6.takeHighest(3)=14, 4d6.takeHighest(3)=12, 4d6.takeHighest(3)=12, 4d6.takeHighest(3)=5

Yeah, so I'll be rerolling. Sheesh, how do I always suck so much at rolling stats for your games Rystil?

4d6.takeHighest(3)=16, 4d6.takeHighest(3)=13, 4d6.takeHighest(3)=14, 4d6.takeHighest(3)=12, 4d6.takeHighest(3)=12, 4d6.takeHighest(3)=15, 4d6.takeHighest(3)=14

MUCH better. That puts me (after racials and all that mess) at...

A charming gentleman and a gambler, with a bit of a reputation as a ladies man, which just makes him more enticing to the ladies, Gabriel appears to be the epitome of a bored noble’s son, and that is likely all he would be if not for the circumstances of his early life.

Now that gives me ideas... how much gambler will he be? And is he the kind of man who like cheating? :p

As Bront want to do a Troubadour, I'll play a Rogue, so I'll be the one with trap finding. After all, isn't the role of a lackey to disable the traps (or get killed by the trap instead of his master ;) )

A trickster, jokester, and master of insults, the Jester's sharp wit is her greatest weapon. Some Jesters are master manipulators in court, subtly or not-so-subtly influencing opinion and pitting former allies against each other. Others use their talents to fight dirty in more ways than one, using the distraction from demoralizing insults and cutting puns to land a sneaky blow. It's kinda like Rogue/Bard, but it also deals in debuffs.

Sounds like the perfect class for the angle I am going with for Armand d'Angello. As someone who thrives on chasing woman (preferably those that are tough too chase; like another Noble's wife), manipulation is a strong trait Armand is going to have. If this doesn't get written up, I can easily make the Swashbuckler work also.

My guess is that, if you asked, you could probably take Trapfinding as a Feat since it's not a normal feat instead of taking a Rogue level. Jester MIGHT have trap finding (I could see laying traps as a joke/prank).

RA: I know you use the 1.5x version of 2 handed Power Attack. (as opposed to the 2x multiplier) Does that round with strength? So if I've got a +3 strenght bonus and took a -1 penalty to hit, would I be at +6 to damage?

No, I wasn't thinking of taking a Rogue level, I was thinking of being a Rogue purely and simply. I've played many Roague, Rinaldo being one of my best success as a merchant. But I was thinking Hyancinthe could have been a gambler which have lost too much to Grabriel and would now be in his work to pay back his debt.

My guess is you round down on fractional numbers, rather than up. ;)
Correct, and you round down separately before adding, so that would be +5. For a two-handed weapon, even amounts of Power Attack are thus advisable.
