Character Creation
Creating the character this time around will be different then in previous installments. Yoshi and I have implemented many changes that we hope will add more Game to our Role Playing Game. The changes to this are as followed:
1. In the world this is taking place in there are 7 races.
2. Each race is blessed with one of the 6 magic types.
3. Each race has a strong and weak stat.
4. Humans are not blessed with a magic type or a strength/weakness but instead can use any magic they want.
5. Stats are added automatically based on your race. Upon leveling up you will receive a +3 in your strong stat, a +1 in your weak stat, and a +2 in all other stats. You will however be given 5 bonus points to allocate where you wish. (See The Point System for more detailed information)
6. Your character's fighting style will have direct impact on your stats. It will provide a modifier to them and will be governed by the skill stat. When making your fighting style make sure you put down what stat the style increases and decreases. (See Skill Stat and Fighting Style for more information)
The Rules
1. No God modding.
2. You must pick from one of the 7 races.
3. You cannot have a half breed.
4. You can only have spells from your races mana. The only race that isn't limited by this restriction is the Humans. (See Mana for more information)
5. You will be allowed 4 slots for magic spells. Only one of those slots will be a spell of your own creation and the other three will be chosen from a stock list. You will be able to create more spells after you increase your Magical Knowledge stat. (See Spells and the Magical Knowledge stat for more information)
6. You have 50 skill points to allocate as you wish.
A brief reiteration of the strong/weak stats for each race and what magic types they can use:
Here's a quick summary of the races:
Humans: No weak stat. The only race not restricted to what mana they can use.
Gondols: +3 Endurance, +1 Skill. Restricted to Body spells.
Eidolons: +3 Magical Knowledge, +1 Strength. Restricted to Spirit Spells.
Allows: +3 Agility, +1 Magic. Restricted to Alacrity spells.
