[QUOTE="Kemrain, post: 2487453, member: 12153"] Hi, I'm Kemrain, and I'll be your character inspector today. Let's just take a look at this, and see if we can't iron out any wrinkles we find. I'll try to be as thorough as possible. I already mentioned Inspiration and Education, and e1ven looked at stats. I guess skills are next, as I think I noticed a thing or two that's just a little off. Point of order: e1ven wouldn't let me take Ancient, so I don't know if it's available at the moment. I think that Daniel Jackson would have translated most, if not just about all of it, but e1ven isn't convinced. It will probably come up in game, at some point. I'm just expecting him to suggest you reassign those skillpoints. I'm assuming you took Talented in Xeno-Cultures, but I don't see anything telling me that. That explains the max ranks in Xeno-cultures. Ok, you should have 63 skillpoints (6 from class plus 3 from intelligence times 4 at first plus 3 additional levels, so seven,) and counting them outright gets us 63, but some of those skills are cross class. Bluff, Concentration, Diplomacy, Intimidate, and Xeno-Languages are all cross class, meaning that you can have no more than 3 ranks in them (like you've done) and that each rank costs 2 skill points (though I con't find where in the skills section it says ths, on page 136 it alludes to it saying that cross class skills are harder to learn). I think you'll need to redistribute your skillpoints a bit. Please note that besides yoru class-granted Gear Picks (Which you have correct) you get 1 from your rank and you gain bonus gear picks equal to your charisma modifier. You get World Traveler from class, you get Xeno-Studies from class, but you have 3 feats? One from first level, one from third level... Where's the third feat coming from? You don't get a bonus feat for being human. It seems like you're taking Xeno-Cultures for your 'always take 10' ability, but it isn't a Craft, Knowledge, or Profession skill so you can't do that. Grade 3 specialists have a savings of $9,000. Everything else looks to be accurate here. This is everythign at first glance. I don't mean to come off as tearing into you, I just wanted to make sure everything was fair. Note: The Talented feat requires that you have 2 ranks in the skill you take the feat in, and in this case it is a cross class skill, so it should cost 4 skill points to get those two ranks before the skill becomes a class skill. Don't worry about it and just pay the 2, as it'll be a class skill after that and keeping track of it is a pain. If you could differentiate between class skill ranks and cross class skill ranks on your 'sheet' I'd be very grateful, as it would make bookkeeping much quicker. Welcome to the game. reveal speaks highly of you, being married to you. We're pleased to have you. Hopefully your interview with Bubba will go fast, as you can tell eachother when you've posted. Isn't that convienient? - Kemrain the Welcoming, and Not Tearing into You, Really. [/QUOTE]
