I took a stab at converting some pre-existing GURPS characters, with a formula of TFT Attribute points = GURPS Character Points/10 + 21. I used GURPS attributes as ballpark for TFT. I wound up boosting IQ for a lot of them to get enough skills and I'm wondering if the formula should be GURPS Character Points/10 + 24.

Here's what I got:

36 point (GURPS 150 point equivalent)

Corwin Bearclaw (Hero)

ST: 12 DX: 12 (9) IQ: 12

Talents: Alertness (2), Crossbow (1), Naturalist (2), Shield (1), Silent Movement (2), Sword (2), Tracking (1), Woodsman (1)

Chainmail, Small Shield (stops 4 hits), Broadsword

Dai Blackthorn (Hero)

ST: 9 DX: 15 (14) IQ: 12

Talents: Alertness (2), Detect Traps (1), Master Thief (2), Remove Traps (1), Silent Movement (2), Sword (2), Thief (2)

Cloth armor (stops 1 hit), Knife, Rapier

I gave Dai Alertness to simulate his Danger Sense.

Katrina (Hero)

ST: 11 DX: 13 (11) IQ: 12

Talents: Armourer (2), Bow (2), Courtly Graces (1), Literacy (1), Silent Movement (2), Sword (2), Tactics (1), Tracking (1)

Leather armor (stops 2 hits), Knife, Shortsword, Longbow

Rowan of the Woods (Hero)

ST: 10 DX: 14 (13) IQ: 12

Talents: Alertness (1), Business Sense (2), Recognize Value (1), Silent Movement (2), Sword (2), Thief (2), Thrown Weapons (2)

Arguably, Master Thief would be more appropriate but I wanted her to be a bit different from Dai.

Cloth armor (stops 1 hit), Throwing Knives, Cutlass

46 point (GURPS 250 point equivalent) Taken from DFRPG.

Masha Deathfoot (Hero)

ST: 14 DX: 17 (16) IQ: 15

Talents: Silent Movement (2), Unarmed Combat I (2), Unarmed Combat II (2), Unarmed Combat III (2), Unarmed Combat IV (2), Unarmed Combat V (3), Warrior (2)

Cloth armor (stops 1 hit)

Miao Miao (Hero)

ST: 13 DX: 20 (18) IQ: 13

Talents: Acrobatics (3), Fencing (3), Shield (1), Silent Movement (2), Sword (2), Unarmed Combat I (2)

Leather armor & Small Shield (stops 1 hit), Bastard sword, Knives

Note: If TFT had a Cloak skill, I would use that instead. Alternately, replace Shield with Two Weapons and raise IQ to 15 and drop DX to 18.

Have to admit, these are much simpler character sheets.
