Reaper will need a good lawyer. (I'm still thinking up names for him)

LemmingLord · 05-03-2013, 12:27 PM

I cut down on my wildcard skills significantly..

He should have some extra points now..

For obvious reasons, he makes an excellent test pilot for the mad gadgeteers in the group.. I wonder if some good ultra tech gear purchased with points might be in order... a jetpack with a tendency to blow up for no good reason, or example...

Does anyone else have something FeebleMind might need? How are we doing wealth? Can he give some of his points to the cause of our headquarters?

Ooh, are wildcard skills a thing? That makes this easier.

Yes, Wildcard skills are totally allowed! I should have made that clearer. I'll even use the rules for them given in Monster Hunters. When the description of a Wildcard skill in MH conflicts with its description in other places, the MH version will be treated as official. Wildcard skills for Styles (as described in Martial Arts), and the Wildcard Skills from Action! and Dungeon Fantasy, are not allowed.

How many players are you willing to accept? I count 5 thus far...

I was initially thinking 4. 5 might be OK, and my experience with these things tells me someone might drop out or not come up with a viable concept.

Lamech · 05-03-2013, 09:22 PM

The mechanics. I let vampiric disadvantages fall under the category of "racial template" and hence did not count them towards the disadvantage limit.

LemmingLord · 05-03-2013, 09:35 PM

Lamech, that is a pretty snazzy vampire!! Everytime I've tried making a lawyer my fellow players make fun of me... Like being a lawyer isn't as awesome or adventurous as something else?

I like the entire package. I would also submit to you that my character will provide you with all the blood you need. Of course it is sickly blood...

Given FeebleMan's willpower (er lack of) I'm sure he began quickly addressing her as mistress (or whatever grovelly term she prefers...her honor? Doctor?) when addressing the lawyer vampire character ( ala Xander in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, When Buffy Met Dracula).

Lamech · 05-03-2013, 10:08 PM

I technically have a team of allies to also help with blood. Always available. (Which is not to say all of them are around all the time, but usually 11-20 can be located somewhere.) But more blood is always fun.

Hmm... re-reading the rules I think the limit for IQ was 20 for normals. And while I think there was something in Dracula about his intelligence, its not really the most iconic power. I wonder if the special exercises perks are valid choices? I could always get talents too. (A lawyer talent for example.)

Also part of the thing with making a lawyer in GURPS is its... a skill. One skill. If combat was decided by a skill roll, it would have similar issues. So if the characters main skill set is law... its gonna be a bit boring. Note how her main skill set it vampirism followed by magic followed by gadgeteering. All the exciting stuff is outside the trial.

Of course, if you played Lawyers and Courtrooms you might find a system of exciting rules for trials and combat being extracted to a skill.

LemmingLord · 05-03-2013, 10:19 PM

I wonder if FeebleMan might make the ultimate ginnea pig for experiments... Picture this... Shoot him in the head...Shoot the next him in the head..etc.. put on life support. Pretty soon you could have 100 test subjects...

IQ 20+ is pretty amazing...maybe that's why you are with momothefiddler's character... I am so glad I am with the smartest team in the world!!
