Do we use this character sheet to make our characters or do we wait for you to make another one?

I have a quick question: does our character have to have Magical abilities? I was thinking about creating a character void of Magical abilities and to compensate he uses technology instead. wanted to run that by you first before creating a character.

@Letter Bee
Alias: Wukong
True Name: Liam Leric-son.
Age: 20
Physical Description: Wukong is a human, but due to a magus, his former master, using change magic to cruelly punish Wukong, he know looks as this.


Important items:
One wooden staff, with the ends capped with iron as to make its strikes more weighty. It's enchanted to make it rather hard to break, or cut by normal means. Magic, however, is still able to harm it normally.
A large burlap sack, that he uses to carry his other belongings.
3 books, about old tales of the warriors of the old gods.
1 robe, complete with hood for when he needs to hide himself.

Short Bio: Wukong was born Liam, Leric-son, son to a slave named Leric, who was owned by a powerful mage, in the most eastern stretches of the territories controlled by the Reich des Goldenen Grahles. This magus was a cruel man, as he enjoyed testing his change magic out on his slaves, for to him, changing them was just like turning a fork to a knife, or turning a stone to a stick. Good practice, and nothing of value would be lost in him doing so.
This magus also owned a large number of books, of times before the goblet was thrown into the earth, back in the times of gods, and warriors. Liam having learned to read as to be able to bring this Magus the books he wanted, when he wanted, quickly found himself enamored with these stories. In his free time sneaking into the library when his master was gone, to read. One warrior he read about caught his attention most. Sun Wukong, a warrior of mayhem and mischief who defied even some of the gods. Such rebellion gave Liam hope, that one day even he could resist against his masters, as Wukong did his.
However, fate is cruel, and existence cares not for hope. At the age of 16, Liam was caught in the library by his master, after many years of reading. The Magus saw a drawing of the Monkey King, and smirked evilly. With a twist of his fingers, and evil intent, he shaped Liam's body like clay, turning him into the spitting image of the creature depicted in the drawing. He then turned a near by chair into a staff, tossing it to Liam, where he ordered Liam to preform tricks for him.
To many, this would of been crushing. To have your self changed, to be humiliated, to know that most likely, you'd never be yourself again, knowing that you would be trapped forever in a near monsterous form would crush most. However, to Liam, this was fate dealing him a kind hand. Liam was strong due to the heavy labor that his master put him under. His muscles honed, and his anger strong, Liam swung the staff with surprising speed. As the magus attempted to yell a spell, his neck was struck, and snapped by the wooden staff. The Magus was launched into a bookshelf by the force of the strike, and it then collapsed onto him. Along with the broken neck, this ended the Magus once and for all. On that day, Liam died too and from him arose a being from old. Leaving behind his old name, Liam took up the name of the old warrior. Sun Wukong now roams the land, a force of nature, seeking out evil and destroying it. He seeks to set all free, and to crush all who would enslave under his staff.
Hearing of the Iron Decree, Wukong sets his sights on Venedig as his next stop. Will Venedig grind the new monkey king under its heel, or would he be left standing, against its crushing force? Only time will tell.

Starting Faction: None.
Spell List: None.
Exceptional Skill List:
Exceptional staff skills x2: Wukong is quite skilled with staves, using wooden ones to even dent, and shatter, metal equipment without the staves breaking.
Exceptional Speed x2: Wukong is quite speedy, able to run up buildings, and deflect arrows with his staff.
Exceptional Durabilityx2: Wukong is rather tough, being stuck with magical attack without being worn down to badly in the moment. However, many times, after battle is when the damage truly takes it toll.

@Rex, Exceptional Abilities exist; perhaps you can have Exceptional Craftsmanship, Exceptional Science, and Exceptional Repair?

This is really interesting but I'm leaving on a camping trip tomorrow and won't be able to be active for a week or so. I'm wondering if I can just reserve my interest here and come back with a fleshed out character?

That depends; will you be all right with the first arc having already started, and introducing yourself later on?

Yes, the character I have in mind is a pretty jaded mercenary from a band that got decimated during the rebellion phase. He's just selling his skills to whoever needs them, acts like a bodyguard and junk like that. I can just say that his last charge was pretty detached from whatever events may have gone down until I get back.

What's the race situation? I know you at least have one non-human race and was wondering if we could make our own.

Don't be a bully and You should be fine.

@The Narrator

If a character either is heavilly suspicious of you or knows you did something your mental suggestions will not work. Level two mind spells are not mind control, they are simply suggestion. Also, if you want that rapier artifact to be enchanted but are indulging in the line of thought "I best not talk about it or they'll play around it" stop, and say what the enchantment is on the cs. Otherwise, it's not enchanted, and if someone starts meta gaming you I will slap the shit out of them just as hard as I will slap the shit out of you for doing so.

Sorry If I come off as harsh, I'm just trying to be upfront about issues instead of sugarcoating.

So all the player characters will have six spells/exceptional skills, but I was wondering how common that level of power was in the populace. If I walk down the street and bump into the baker, is it likely that he has some kind of magic to deal with the master swordsmen stealing flour from his suppliers? I ask out of curiosity and backstory reasons.

Oh, PCs are meant to be exceptional people, but ordinary civilians, especially those with a profession, have one or two Spells/Exceptional skills, as opposed to PCs' six and increasing.
