[QUOTE="Rystil Arden, post: 3470026, member: 29014"] Hmm...how did he take a level in Sage? As I mentioned upstream in pallandrome's query, that class is generally only available to Byblans (some of the worlds have multiple races where one or more races have proprietary classes) or [I]maybe[/I] Rowaini who are on their way to Ascending (Byblans expand their numbers by allowing others to Ascend into Byblans) and are extremely involved with the Byblans and not with Rowaini affairs. Are the Swashbuckler proficiencies not in the class compendium? (not the post in the thread, but the .zip file). I think they get all martial weapons, plus light armour, but check the file. Precise Strike only works while using Weapon Finesse. Rowaini do not get the human feat and skill bonuses (but see below) I don't generally allow flaws or traits, and not walking with a weapon out to gain the Quickdraw feat seems overpowered for a trait anyway (since the Quickdraw feat negates all possible penalties of not walking around with a weapon out that I can think of). Sometimes I have very specific allowable trade-offs for backgrounds that are somewhat like traits. As I mentioned upthread, many commoners have the human skill bonus and feat in place of the +4 racial bonus to Charisma, which is an allowable trade-off (someone who wanted to use this and still be semi-involved with the nobility could be a bastard).
