Ok... err... Are you done yet, Rusky, or are you still perfecting things?

Is presence only used for Stalk/Hide?! Oh and, I'm chucking Animal Empathy, giving me two spare slots.

I'm done Ush...
Btw.. we DO get some starting capital right ? 😄
I mean I won't be fighting those orcs with my bare hands ?
Oh and btw... can we borrow money from each other ? 😈

Yep! except one thing, the sword gives plus 5, doesnt it? I've changed that if you don't mind. Oh yeah, I want to have Lightning Reaction, plus five to all weapon skills and dffense. Not entirely sure what defense is, i mean, what stat, sooo...
I may add 5 to the stat of presence, unless i can add five to all my general skills

The only SKILL presence is used for is Stalk/Hide but there are all sorts of social situations where Presence is useful.

Rusky, yes, you start with basic equipment. I shall check out your set-up in a mo.

Ok, looks good, Trickster. Defensive Score is a skill on its own, base agility. It doesn;t go up, though.

Can I increase all my subterfuge skills by fivve using a background? If not I'll just put another 5 on presence 😉

now...is it me screwing up the character creation precedure, or is the noldor really not that superior..😛

Nah, only a stat, so do Presence.

okay, I'll do that. making...

What 'presence' woud Aragorn have had? On average?

I do not have Aragorn's stats but likely +30 or more.

Oddly enough though I DO have the stats for all the famous Elves, including the First Age ones...

Anyway, that is now in the Roll of Honour, Trickster, and you are done.

Okay, what about theone, in the book, who finds them at the egde of the forest where galdriel lives. Not too good on place names sorry 😛

you mean Haldir of lothlorien

aye, i do

for my first level stat increase, what do i add to each stat? and to which stats (ish completely confuzled about the process)

It depends what profession you are..?

VR what do you want to play?

VR's character was up earlier. He's a Sindar Ranger. Here he is:

Strength: +5
Agility: +10
Constitution: +15
Intelligence: +0
Intuition: +10
Presence: +10

Unarmoured- (5/10)= 15
One-handed edged weapons- (5/5/2)= 12
Missile Weapons- (10/10/2)= 22
Climb- (5/10/3)= 18
Ride- (5/10/3)= 18
Swim- (10/10/3)= 23
Stalk/Hide- (15/10/2)= 27
Read Runes- (5/10)- 15
Use Item- (5/10)= 15
Perception- (15/10/2)= 27
Stamina- (6/15/5)= 26

Now, it is skills you will be increasing, Vincent, not stats. Now, as a Ranger, you get the following:

RANGER: Manoeuvre (2), Weapon Skills (3), General Skills (4), Subterfuge Skills (2), Stamina (+12)

Each skill an only be increased once. You can spend one point to increase it by five, or three points to increase it by then. You can swap skills between categories on a two for one basis. Points from any category can be used for Perception instead. And Manoeuvre skills are different- they just cost one for five and can be increased as much as you can afford.

How are you doing with that, Vincent?
