[QUOTE="Brother Allard, post: 3607406, member: 49563"] [SBLOCK=VR]That's a good build, but not quite right for this character. Being a Rodian/Mandalorian, Wyallt is obviously built around the armor and perceptiveness. I don't see this character as wearing heavy armor or necessarily being that perceptive. He should be mostly about offense. I'm not sure of the best way to do this, so let me try laying out some priorities for the build. [b]1)[/b] Marksman. In the last version, Trandoshans have a dex penalty, so I'm assuming it will be the same here. Still, I'd like for him to be a very fine marksman. I think I'd buy 16 pts, take the -2 species penalty, and then add +2 from levels. Any good feats and/or talents should go in there as well. Point Blank Shot, Precise Shot, etc. I don't know what all's out there, but this should be his first priority. He should also have a very nice rifle (what's Jayne without Vera?) [b]2a)[/b] Melee. He should be respectable here. Str should be good, which should be easy given the racial bonus. I think I'd probably buy 15 points, take the +2 special bonus, and then add +1 from level. A couple of feats to support this would be good as well. [b]2b)[/b] Toughness. He should be innately tough. I'd buy 15 pts of Con, and then take +1 for levels. Also, I think there's some sort of Toughness talent tree in the soldier class, right? Unless there's a really good markman talent tree, that might be the way to go. [b]3)[/b] Skills. I'm thinking he has previously worked as a solo bounty hunter, so he should be pretty self-sufficient. He'll need pilot and survival and whatever else is reasonable.

I'd probably go with a 10 for Wis and an 8 for Cha, unless you think there's a good reason no to. I might take Perception as a trained skill, though. He shouldn't be totally blind.
