Well let's get down to creating your Drifter!
First up, what is your character's name? Everyone has a name, and yours may become famous or even infamous depending on your actions! Feel free to include a nickname if you so desire.
What's your drifter look like? Right here is where you tell us. If you want to include their age, feel free. You don't need to be exact if you don't want to.
Time to get creative! Next up is your character's history. Who is your character? What made them who they are today? Why did they become a Drifter, or why do they want to become one? You character's stats, skills, and items should fit into their history. If you would like to add your character's personality to their character sheet, add it below their history.
Now lets get to stats. There are 5 primary stats.
•Strength
•Awareness
•Agility
•Intelligence
•Willpower
Each stat starts with 1 rank in it. This means you're already level 1 in everything! In addition, you have 4 stat points to allocate. Choose well, you wont get more later! No above stat can be higher than rank 3 at character creation.
Now there are still two more stats to fill out. Don't worry, this part is easy.
•Health
•Toughness
See your strength score above? Just double that and you have your health. Now take your health and double that. That is your toughness score.
Now lets get you some skills. There is no list of skills, so you get to make yours up! Skills come in two types.
General Skills cover a variety of abilities. Each general skill costs 3 skill points to raise by 1 rank. Examples of general skills would be perform, melee combat, or explosives training.
Specific Skills are just what they sound like; skills which have a narrow range of use. Each specific skill costs 1 skill point to raise by 1 rank. Examples would include singing, sword training, and grenade training.
You start with 6 skill points to allocate. No skill can be a higher rank than its governing stat during character generation! Don't forget!
Next up is equipment. Like the skills above, there are no item lists in Badlands. Go make up your gear!
Every Drifter begins with one base weapon and a set of armor of either poor or regular quality. If your base weapon is a firearm, you begin with your gun loaded and with two reloads. You may also choose to spend one skill point to buy another weapon, but any weapons gained in this manner do not start with reloads.
You may also begin with one or two personal items. Personal items are not weapons or armor. Only one of the personal items may be a tool.
Every Drifter also begins their game with 50-150 zen (money). There are no benefits to this choice besides how much coin you start with, this choice is mostly for role playing purposes.
Congrats! You've now created a Drifter, and are ready to face the perils of Badlands! Good luck, and happy trails!
Note : You should place any character sheets you've made in a separate thread.
