nWoD

So, you know what? I actually enjoyed making this boy, nWoD characters are nice and quick to make and i haven't made or played one in ages (and i'd really like to play this one). Good show eh? Onward:

So, character concept eh? I chose "Lost Soul" an ex-university professor who delved too deep and, driven to the brink of madness, is now wandering the streets of London.

First thing you do is spend points on attributes. These are grouped into Mental, Physical and Social. And your points are spent in a 5/4/3 split i chose to spend 5 on Intelligence, 4 Physical and 3 on Social. You get one point in each attribute automatically. Here how it pans out :


Mental Physical Social
Power Intelligence 3 Strength 2 Presence 2
Finesse Wits 3 Dexterity 3 Manipulation 3
Resistance Resolve 2 Stamina 3 Composure 1


Quite well rounded i think. Now onto skill these follow the same split as before this time its 11/7/4 as my mental attributes got the highest last time so do my skills in the mental field:

Mental (11)

Medecine 3 (well, he is a doctor)
Science 3 (as above)
Investigation 2 (all that work on his Phd must have helped)
Academics 3 (eh....duh?)

Physical (7)

Athletics 2 (ex-track champ.)
Brawl 1 (life's tough on the streets)
Drive 1 (self explanitory)
Stealth 2 (life on the streets makes you good at staying out of sight, especially if you know whats after you)
Survival 2 (see brawl)

Social (4)

Streetwise 3 (see above)
Empathy 1 (a sympathetic soul this one)


So now its time for my derived attributes:

Defense (lowest of wits or Dex) : 3
Health (Stamina + Size) : 7
Initiative (Dex + Comp) : 4
Morality : 7
Size : 5
Speed (Str + Dex + 5) : 9
Willpower (Resolve + Composure) : 3

Vice : Hope
Virtue : Pride


Now to round our character off with some merits, i have 7 points to spend:

Mental Merits:

Encyclopedic Knowledge (4)

Physical Merits:

Fresh Start (1)
Iron onstitution (1)

Social Merits :

Barfly (1)

Well thats it for David Bently. Good luck on he streets mate.....beware of what goes bump in the dark.
