Also, the common language in Caithness (and in most of the Yrth) is Anglish. However, I do know that reptile-men cannot take more than Accented level, not because of their mindset, but simply the inability to pronounce things right. It is possible to take it on Writen Native level, however. Once again, gotta check the book, but I reckon they have some kind of native language, can't remember the name. Marko |

1) they have a language, (though I cannot find it) and 2.)they're cool with their native one. Grok's native language is Anglish, but due to his reptilian face, speaks with an accent. GURPS "accented" is more about grammar and syntax, but with an int of 12, Grok would have beat that years ago. Under "Penetrating voice" in Basic Set: Characters, PG 101 Quote:

Anyway on to finalizing the character sheet, finishing the back-story and grabbing equipment. |

Re: [OOC] The Marching Storm
I donīt think Sir Green would fit very well as a leading man, he is a strong build slightly stubborn man that solves his problems directly (usually with some kind of violent behavior).
But he is very fit to be the leading manīs second. He has Status 2 that would give him at TL 3 a rather decent rank among most armies of that period*. *800-1500 give or take few hundred years.

Re: [OOC] The Marching Storm
Note: I am using the basic set for armor weapons and equipment right now. I CAN switch to low-tech if you want.
Getting close character sheet

Re: [OOC] The Marching Storm
Sorrry it is taking me so long to get a character up. It's cool by me that Grey Fox takes the lead role...But I don't think I am going to have a Mercanery group. Just too may points. I will come up with something soon.

Re: [OOC] The Marching Storm
How many Mercenary Allies should I tak eto make it significant? 6-10? 20-50? Anymore than that makes it cost prohibitive. I would just rather say he is currently without a mercenary troop since his last troop was lost due to a combination of deaths and deserters after their last battle. Perhaps they were in the conflict with the reptilemen that took Blythe? He and a few others escaped but have since disbanded. One of his goals would be to rebuild his army.

Re: [OOC] The Marching Storm
Okay, here's a big post regarding all of your replies. Forgive me for all the *snips*.

You do not specifically need to buy those men as allies. They are employed and you act as a commander. You have a high rank and may command them on the basis of simply having the rank. Quote:
You're free to use this piece of story you mentioned about Blythe, though. However, if you took them as still living and under your command, that would be neat. It's your choice in the end. The IC Thread will start as soon as I send you all the briefing PM regarding the current situation you will be faced with once the game starts, the knowledge your characters have, and some names and notes you might find valuable. If you have read the PM, you're elligible to join the game. Note that all of you will get the PM at approximately the same time. Finish your backstories, so far I have Kobold's, zoncxs', Hannes' (although he is free to add more if he wishes too. Everyone can, that is). Grey_Fox is not obliged to give me the whole backstory, he'll get a portion of his after I publish this post. I have only a vague idea about Lamech's and Skullcrusher's backstories, but I believe they're on their way. Any more questions, comments, criticisms? Feel free to ask whatever you wish to. Marko |

Re: [OOC] The Marching Storm
Questions: Can I use the assumption from magic of "80 energy or less enchantments are 1$ each"? Two how many layers of armor can I have on the skull before you get overly annoyed? Three I suspect you might find a basic speed on 9 objectionable, if you want it lowered that is fine.
