“You will serve or you will die,” said the voice.

Looking down at the cup of blood-red wine, I set it down on the table. I put a coin on the table and stood.

“Marg, I’m done for the night,” I said.

“What? This early?” said Marg, wiping a table clean as I walked passed him.

“Aye. I hit the sign to stop,”

“You heard voices from that cheap swill? Tani, check the barrels. The Brun’s poisoned us again!” said Marg as I stepped out of the inn.

Amit Kasan was a citizen of Radasanth. A lifelong basher for the Red Knives, he found a change in careers when he inherited a statue from his father.

Now, Amit must slay these foes or have his skull flood with his own blood.

Hi and welcome to Althanas.

Firstly can I ask you to please place 'polylinguist,' 'brawling,' 'knife fighting,' and 'crime knowledge' under the heading of 'Skills,' and everything you have under 'Skills' currently as 'Abilities.'

Thank you.

In terms of you abilities I just need some clarification:

For 'Knapping the Bone' what effect does the three hits have on the victim? Or is it just a matter of three successive hits in a row?

For 'Bull-Dragon’s Embrace' is there time between the victim being slammed into the ground before their head is smashed on.

For all of these you refer to strength and speed of the attacker. Does Amit then have enhanced speed and strength?

Thank you very much.

I was unsure on how that worked. All these attacks really rely on the advantage of surprise. The aspect of strength and speed is more just an explaination for why an attack might not work. Amit is a normal human male who strength is in the higher echelon of athletic people. Nothing superhuman.

Okay, so they are just brands of attack really? They don't do anything superhuman special?

That's fine, I can work with that :)

So your character's stats are x1 a standard human.

Basically how things like that work, is you base them on what the average human can do. So, an average human can walk about 4-5 km/h, someone with 2x human speed would walk 8-10 km/h. The average person can lift around 135 pounds (bench press) so someone with 2x strength could lift 270 pounds (bench press).

Hope that helps. Let me know if you need more clarity on that.

Um...I'm kind of dumb. What else do I need to do? Do I need to list the stats? Can I get rid of the abilities?

Yes if you have anything more than x1 base stat, inclusive of strength, speed, dexterity, endurance, wisdom, any perception, sense etc, then they'll be taken as an ability. So I'll need you to list them.

Your fighting abilities as they stand are sort of like special moves. At the moment they count towards your 15 points allowance of Player Level points.

I am sorry but what else do I need to do?

List any abilities in terms of being super. I.e. the X2 strength etc if you have.

Abilities - I see you have taken all your moves out? So you no longer want to use them?

How about we chat on Discord? I think that might clear things up. If you send me a PM here even.
