New Iconics thread

[gaghiel42]

I think there is one more thats in the process of being made, but it's already formatted pretty well so far, and all that good stuff, so if people wanna keep on trucking with these, awesome.  If you'd rather just be done and let me keep working on them, that works too.

[Golden Dragon]

I pulled the formatting from this and the associated thread to write up a character for my own interests, and discovered that nowhere do you list hit dice or vitality/wound points. Was this omission intentional or accidental?

[gaghiel42]

Since hit dice and vitality/wound points are figured differently in pregens I left that off for now, especially because it is simple enough that in the final steps, we can just figure it out for each really fast, and its one less thing to worry about. 

The important bits are stat allocation, Origin, feats, skills and gear.

[gaghiel42]

Been kinda busy for the last few days.  Once Fall break rolls around though, I will be hammering out the last of these classes if I don't hear that someone else is going for it.  If you guys need anything, or have ideas/complaints any of that good stuff, let me know.

PM or email or just post it here, or whatev

[Crafty_Pat]

Thanks for staying on top of it!

Here is Bill's Corporate Spy Advocate.  I went ahead and fixed the formatting goodness, so it matches all the rest, and helped smooth things out a little.  Feel free to keep working on it.  I just wanted to make sure we kept them all the same so the Crafty guys can transition it all easier.

For Gear, she needs a pistol.  I tried sticking with one type to make the stat blocks easier, but figure out what she needs and don't worry too much about that.  Also, a ranged or Melee stun gun would be awesome as would brass knuckles.  Since she has a super high Cha, she gets lots of mission gear, so she could easily support the team's electronics or gadget needs.

[gaghiel42]

And here is the faceman all reformated.  Still needs mission gear/common items and a background section along with vital stats.  We're getting close!


Faceman

Name: Kurt 'Doppelganger' Keller

Only other suggestions I have is maybe consider trading out the training feat for something like talented or something thereabouts. 

[Crafty_Pat]

Oh, and when you get a sec Pat, what should we do about the intruder's extra use of the Gear Prep feat?  Should I just use it on her possessions or try to tweak it so she gets another mission gear pick, or just leave it as it is above?

Go ahead and work it in.

[gaghiel42]

Ok, taken care of, thanks Pat. 

Now, that the builds are formatted, if the original creators wanna tweak anything, lemme know, or go ahead and post it here.  I havent seen a pointman up yet, although I've heard a few people in the process of making one.  Even if its just a basic concept like just an origin or a character concept, toss it out and we can start crunching it out. 

When I get a bit more free time (probably Wednesday) I'll see what I can do about filling in some of the blanks here and there on the three I just reformatted.

[gaghiel42]

I went ahead and put together a pointman, but didn't yet create a background for him.  He's basically a Mercenary/Ex-Military type, so I was hoping one of you Military types could go ahead and come up with something fun for him.

I'll post what I have done when I get a few minutes (almost off of work right now, don't ya love getting paid to mess around with spycraft stuff? )

I know that someone else was working on a pointman too.  If you want to still post up what you have please do, we can pick and choose what we want and make one super pointman or something.

Mine is a grizzled/soldier of fortune  w/ Rock n roll, Fortunate and Fortune Favors the Bold to give you an idea.

[gaghiel42]

Here's my take on the pointman.  Let me know what people think.  I also need a good backstory for him if anyone has anything.

I think that is all of the base classes.  These last few need some finishing touches, and I guess that I can work on them as time permits, but I would really love for these to be finished by the people that created them.  Once we get these last few steps taken care of, we can hand them off to Pat for final go over and get this show on the road.

[gaghiel42]

Just a friendly reminder post.  If you still are working on these characters let me know.  I will be taking them with me on Vacation in the next week or so, to finish editing them and turning them in to Pat.  If you have any final revisions or things you want to finish, post em up, let me know, send Pat or I an E-mail and we will gladly work them into our project.

Thanks again for helping out with all this stuff!

Also, just a note on what all needs finishing on the forum end:

- Pointman needs character information and back story.  If anyone has ideas, go for it.

- Faceman needs character information and back story, as well as Mission Gear

- Advocate needs vital statistics/character info and all Gear

- Sleuth needs character information and backstory (revised to not just be Batman) and Gear

I'm pretty sure that covers it, unless there are any last minute changes on the finished iconics people would like to see.  Again, if you get a chance, please help me out finishing these if you can, otherwise, I'll just work on them over break.

Thanks!
Charlie
