Re: Character Discussion
You did take into account that your max languages known is 1+Int, right?
Here's the post under custom skills: viewtopic.php?f=71&t=881

There is no more mention of maximum languages known in that post or thread.

Re: Character Discussion
something is likely off with your calculations cause you shouldn't have that many languages, not according to the latest changes anyways.

Re: Character Discussion
5 ranks, 14 int. Each point gives 3 (1+(INT Mod)), except the last point which gives 4 (1+(INT mod)+1 (because of 5 ranks in linguistics)). 4(3)+4 = 16.
First language learned and then mastered is Gnome (2 points total). Mercurian and Spirit are 3 points each. 2+2(3) = 8.
Okay, I've got even more points left over than I thought (never do math on when half awake and before food). But the problem still stands.

In no place is there a multiplication.
I have no clue where you extracted that equation, but it sure isn't what the hell I wrote. <_<

Re: Character Discussion
For anyone stupid enough to think otherwise, enhancement mods (and other equipment / nonperm mods ) to INT does not increase any skill points, this include language points ( Judson <_< )
Also this goes without saying, but your history/personality should be able to explain:
--- your class lines (e.g. why dave's cohort have JPM - seeing as Penthiae have no phoenix I adapted the idea for dragons, which means only the Fens Orcs, the Kharvans, and the Darions have any adepts in this class, and you'll need to work this into your history somehow)
--- any special uncommon skills you have, including any perform, profession, or craft, as well as uncommon technical skills such as decipher script
--- your languages (e.g. why the hell judson's main knows Japanese is beyond me)
And special requirement under character personality : what are your character's hobbies / interests
And please refrain from making up sets that perfectly covers up your actual duties - even workaholics have outside interests.
Basically, give them some more human characteristics and make them less of a machine simply here to perform work. It also gives me an idea of what your character does on his/her spare time.

Re: Character Discussion
by the order of the DM (!!!~ lol) :
seeing as military tactics is taught by example and military history, which is affected by and affects every other part of history (political, cultural, economic, technological, etc), I'm putting in an official requirement that you have at least 1 rank in history for every 2 ranks in tactics.
I thought about doing this for knowledge ( politics ) as well, but you can learn politics by purely theoretical means (where military you really can't). However I would suggest you at least get some.
As a rather famous Chinese quote goes:
Using copper as a mirror allows one to keep his clothes neat. Using history as a mirror allows one to see the future trends. Using a person as a mirror allows one to see what is right and what is wrong.

Re: Character Discussion
For both main and cohort: Updated languages and skills, added hobbies/interests.
Would it not be easier
In that case for the government
To dissolve the people
And elect another?

Re: Character Discussion
Rofl a player who doesn't watch any has a character with a certain anime interest xD.
Not surprisingly, the Imperials' military grade tactical simulator comes in holo-game format, and often linked up for large scale training sims.

Re: Character Discussion
now that I've bothered to write up the move complicated equipment/vehicular movement rules a bit... that vehicular feats have been recalibrated, some of the requirements changed, some of the description/benefit.
sorry Judson but you're probably going to need to do some reshuffling.

Re: Character Discussion
I figure I should drop this out, since ppl most haven't finished work on that much of their cohort (except Judson, whose already doing this).
I may not be necessarily a bad idea to design a combat, or at least front-lines build of sorts, for your cohort. Sure, it may not work as well as a backup char meaning should your main die you may need to switch to diff char (probably with more level loss), but it might also come in pretty handy =9

Meet Sigmund 1.5, now with new fluffy filling!
Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pron surfed, weak and weary,
Over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot xxx galore',
While I clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour,
"'Tis not possible!", I muttered, "Give me back my free hardcore!
