We are busy little creatures serious though, do we need to slow down? Name: Uldric species: Hyena gender:male age:19/20 motto: Failure is ALWAYS an option. personality: To put it bluntly Uldric is an odd person, but having a mother who dropped him of at his fathers doorstep as soon as he popped out her and a father, who while clearly did his best, didn't know the first thing in how to act in civilized company and even less about how to raise a child didn't really stack the deck in his favor on that part. He tries to be friendly though, he just happens to make mistakes that offend people at times. He is an intelligent and willful man, preferring to rely on a good trap and sound tactical choices over brute force, with some foul play thrown in for good measure. He doesn't care about the concept of honor and wonders why other people follow those rules. He has a clear fondness for drinking alcohol, no matter what kind and he isn't very good at pacing himself with it either. My first question is, what are the differences between the sorcerer, spellbinder and warlock careers? I know thaumaurges(mages who study magic itself) and elementalists(manipulating elements and summoning elementals) from the previous edition. A rough draft that I already got up.

Right, I'll set this up tonight, and get Pikachao to Moderate it! I've got to take off for a couple of weeks again next week, so we'll have to make sure it's properly sorted by then

It probably won't be that hard to wait a little and yes, because of the lack of a level system, it's easy to introduce new characters (which is good considering my fondness of perma-death)

Warlocks use the same magic as elementalists, but are also able to fight melee as well. Sorcerers and Spellbinders are cognescientes (magic hat's kind of mind controlly)

hmmm, I'll go for an elementalist then,Burning stuff is fun but I don't see ulfric as somebody who uses weapons as a focus. maybe as a backup but he rather throws magic at you. Also just asking, It is possible to posses skills that fall outside your job just like in 1st edition right? I was thinking of also picking up stealth skills and maybe some knowledge of traps.

So what would be some good sneak gifts to chose? aside from a point in the skill itself? Also are hyena's included in the rulebook?

Hyenas are in the rulebook, believe it or not Streetwise (bonus d12 to criminal related things) is nice because taking it allows you to get sneak related gifts like skulking (sneaking isn't a stunt)

awesome what are the bonuses and traits of the race? I'm going to take it as my race anyway but I'm still curious And streetwise is a prerequisite gift(skill?) for many other stealth gifts right? Then I'll take it, still got 2 gifts to go then . Just a question, maybe you can list the gifts and a short description of what it does somewhere? (not the rules behind it) like keen ears: bonus to hearing. Just so I can make a choice witout asking everything to you?

Hyena's (and other wild dogs) include their species role for endurance searching and tactics. Their gifts are keen ears, keen nose and Tracking (extra d12 when, well, tracking) I'd have to see, there are a crap ton of gifts, I'm sure I can at least get a least.
