[QUOTE="jaycrockett, post: 7688872, member: 29468"] I tried to make a quick fighter type and ended up with a barbarian. Quite fun. I like the development system. Only issues I had was Soak was not defined in the character guide like the other stats were, I had to look in the starter kit. Also wasn't quite sure on the weapon damage, looks like you add unarmed dice to melee weapon (but not thrown like my spears), but add dice pool size (like +3 for 3d6 STR) to unarmed damage? I picked dodging in development but after the fact I wasn't sure why I wouldn't pick acrobatic instead, seems more general and is also used in defense. Lola, an athletic barbarian who's always on the run STR 9 3d6 AGI 7 3d6 END 10 4d6 INT 8 3d6 LOG 3 (2d6) WIL 4 (2d6) CHA 3 (2d6) LUC 5 (2d6) REP 0 (0d6) MAG 0 (0d6) Human Age 27 Health - 32 Soak - 9 (Leather + Iron Skin) Speed - 7 Climb - 3 Swimming - 3 Jump - 14'/9' Carry - 200 lb Initiative - 3d6 Defense Melee - Sword 5d6 - 18 or Dodging 4d6 - 14 Ranged - Dodging 4d6 - 14 Mental - Int 3d6 - 11 Skills Carrying 1 Dodging 1 Dungeoneering 1 Hardy 1 Spears 1 Swimming 1 Swords 2 Tracking 1 Attacks Zweihander 5d6 (5d6 slashing) Spear 4d6 (2d6 piercing, range 6) Unarmed 3d6 (1d6 + 3) Exploits Hardship Iron Skin Fleet of Foot Reap the whirlwind Feint Deadly Strike Trait - Athletic Equipment 100 gc starting Zweihander (4d6) - 25 gc 2 Spears (2d6) - 4 gc Leather Armor - 35 gc Backpack - 9 gp Development Human - climbing, running, dungeoneering Slave - 13 years (Skill - mining, dodging.
