Not trying to inconvenience you by any means. Trying to keep the rules as simple and as thin as possible. I'd rather we all spent more time enjoying ourselves than sifting through copious amounts of rules. Hopefully you aren't having to alter too much. Sorry for the gnome thing too. Just a bit of preference on my part...

@Arkitekt

Well, when I saw there'd be dice rolls, I might've gotten a little ahead of myself. And to be honest there isn't much info on the topic of character creation in the OOC. So it's guesswork, and you're either right or you aren't. I wasn't. Not giving up yet.

~Winds of Fate- A Thief's Adventure~

Thank you for the clarification. This changes my character concept, but not by alot.

~Winds of Fate- A Thief's Adventure~

Whatever works for you @Peaceless. I said you could remain a gnome if you were dead set on it. Either way.. I just didn't want this to resemble a LOTR type environment with all sorts of races running around. Either way it is up to you.. I'd prefer them to be all human, but I can overlook it if need be.

One thing I would maybe change would be the Firearms skillset. There is a -2 modifier for flintlocks that is to be rolled by everyone who uses them, sort of a standard thing. Also when using a flintlock everyone rolls a standard d10 just like an attack roll so I'm not entirely sure that you'd benefit from having it anyway.

However I do like the idea of a such a place where little people dwell. Pygmies..

@Arkitekt

Aha. So using weapons is a constant roll? I wanted her to shoot well, but if it is impossible I will change the skill.

Harmony "Harm" Titanfoot

Currency: 4 coin, 0 bits
Ammo: 20 flintock pistol bullets
Status: Uninjured, incarcerated

Harmony

Harmony "Harm" Titanfoot

Gender: Female
Age: 25
Race: Human
Origin: Colossus Island (born in Guillan)
Complexion: 4'9" in height, looking to be in her 13s other than her face and the width of her shoulders.
Attire: Harm wears a cloth and leather work garb, with thickened leather plates in various strategic locations. It seems designed for workplace safety rather than fighting, but may as well work in both cases. This garb has various pockets that are always filled, giving her the look of a homeless trash-diver.
Demeanor: Serious, Confident, Nerdy, Uncompromising, Merciless

Skillsets 15/15

Stealth - 1
Firearms (Crafting\Maintenance\Use) - 3
Locksmithy/Lockpicking - 4
Traps (Creation/Disarming) - 3
*Divination - 4

Background:
Harmony is the eldest daughter of the noble Titanfoot lineage. Her parents were permanently assigned to the Colossus Island embassy in Guillan when they were young, and thus she was born in the city along with three younger brothers. Such a life would present infinite opportunities to a curious young girl, but that was exactly the problem.

From young age, she was interested in destruction. Meticulous, planned destruction that requires setting various processes in motion to accomplish. The doctors back home would say she has The Ember Ailment, but she was not a pyromaniac. At least not in the usual sense. Yes, fire was a means to an end, a dull one to be honest, though the process of firing a flintock was nothing short of amazing.

In other words, Harmony was a bored noble wanting to stir things up.

Her parents largely ignored her due to their duty, leaving her to roam the streets, and roam she did. She was fascinated with the kind of improvisation the poor employed, in everything from cooking to architecture. It was all so fragile, ready to topple in a cloud of dust at any moment, but holding nonetheless. She would apprentice with various handymen to understand this better. Unbeknownst to her, her every decision and move, while making her look like a genius sometimes, would be backed by some magic ancestry that allowed limited insight to both the past and the future, allowing her to understand the purpose and working logic of various devices while letting her anticipate the effect of her tinkering on them.

It would thus not take long until word of her reached those in less renowned lines of work, where she would finally receive a task worth of her talent.

Personal Effects:
Hand-sewn work garb designed to be exceptionally sturdy in the right places, with many pockets for tools, hidden or otherwise.
An improvised pistol that works surprisingly well for its shoddy looks
bullets and powder doses
Worn lockpick set
General craftsman tools
Magnifying glass
Small can of Machine Oil

@Arkitekt I've been hoping to finish editing the sheet on the weekend but it's been a little crazy here. Hope to finish it today. It's harder than I thought to change race, so I'm gonna take the easy way out - invent a kingdom where people are short and like industry and "me pot o' gold".

~Winds of Fate- A Thief's Adventure~

Also @Peaceless good character sheet. I was only wanting human characters, but if you are dead set on being a gnome I guess that's okay. Very good sheet. Add to the character list and post whenever you are ready.

@Arkitekt

I was looking for a race limitation in the OOC and couldn't find any, so I just assumed everyone's making humans out of personal preference. I am pretty sure I can make Harm a human or a half-human without much impact on her story. Will edit and post.

Numenera: Stars of Glass

Heyo. This is interesting.

Here is my application:

Engine

Name: Engine
Age: 50ish
Sex: Construct

Type: Jack
Descriptor: Curious
Focus: Builds Wondrous Devices

"I am a Curious Jack who Builds Wondrous Devices."

Engine is able to use most of what she finds to cobble together various techno-magical solutions to her problems. Some of these solutions make sense, others seem to work via some hidden will. Much like herself.

The more complicated the solution, the more time and various exotic parts it requires.

Appearance:

Image

Engine appears to be a living pile of driftwood and stone that somehow resembles a humanoid and moves by itself. Her ability to animate matter and technology hints at the fact her existence isn't limited to the physical components of her body. Despite her crude appearance, Engine's movements are fluid and graceful, as her various parts dance together to her will.

Backstory:
Despite being a force of pure multidimensional chaos, it is rare for the Iron Wind to create life where there is none. Nevertheless, a pile of wood woke some years ago, and began drifting, searching for sense and purpose. It studied animals at first, then human settlements, and was lucky to be discovered by scouts when it had already learned to control at least some of their language. At this point, by some strange unconscious process, it had come to resemble them.

Once deemed safe, the creature looked for immediate purpose within the settlement. Its sustenance was raw matter, and the quality of its physical form determined by its quality. It thus only made sense for it to find work with craftsmen, and sometimes alchemists. And for the longest time, it - she settled down, given the name of Engine by the older, smarter children.

But no one can avoid wanderlust forever, in the 9th world.

So I figured if we'll be keeping track of our stashes and Ammunition it'd be a good idea to have those outside of the Hider on the CS. If you want me to change it I will.

@Icarus

I will be tracking ammo in the IC. I think it's more practical.

Oh hey guys, don't misunderstand, I was just mentioning my upper limit is all.

Will submeet a sheet on the weekeend.
