Mink
05-01-08, 04:26 PM
my old profile had a major flaw to it that made it impossible to write with. It clearly stated that mink was unable to take weapons and armor out of his bag, which is all well and good, but it presented one important question. What counts as a weapon? here are two examples of what I mean:
Does an axe used for chopping wood and nothing else count as a weapon?
Does a broomstick used to attack other people count as a weapon?
These questions made me have to redesign this character a bit, this time going into a bit more detail, there. Please note, I do not want this approved if you can see another potential problem in the future. Especially if it is similar to this one. thank you.
(Updates in red)
Name: Mink Thorn
Age: 20
Race: Gnome
Hair Color: Gray
Eye Color: Blue
Height: 2 feet
Weight: 10 pounds
Occupation: Merchant
Personality: Shy
Appearance: Small and skinny with a gray beard and grey hair.
History: "Being a gnome is tough. But when you wake up one day to find out that almost everyone you knew has left town to go to who knows where, It can be downright frustrating. I want to know where they went, what they went to do, and why I was left behind, but first I need to earn enough money for the trip."
Skills: See Equipment
Equipment: a magical blue bag
Blue bag: Able to produce almost any item as if from nowhere. Can use only three times a day. (out of fairness, he cannot produce weapons, armor, or gold. He also cannot produce anything from the future (AKA non-althanas items.))
On that note, let's go into what counts as a weapon.
I talked with Adventwings about this and we came up with this list:
Mink cannot produce the following items from his bag:
- Edged blades of any type from the bag, regardless of material.
- Pikes, spears or staves of any material.
- Clubs or War Hammer - spiked, flanged or unadorned - of any material.
- Bows, Whips or Firearms.
In other words, the stuff you would find on the shelves of your average weapon shop.
In that same regard, Armor counts as anything found in your typical armor shop.
(Items disappear after two hours.)
