Using These Characters
Every character here is original and built by the rules in Character Creation and Skills & Advancement . Use them as pre-generated characters for a one-shot, as a replacement when someone's hero meets a grim and perilous end, as NPCs for the GM, or as worked examples of how a career turns into a character. Change a name or a home town as you like: the numbers still work.
There is one character for each of the 64 core careers, grouped by the eight classes. They cover all five species (37 Humans, 9 Halflings, 8 Dwarfs, 5 High Elves and 5 Wood Elves), and no species is given a career the core career table does not allow it. The guide's own examples are here too: Gottfried Grimwald the rat catcher from Character Creation, plus Brunhilde von Stierhelm and Klaus Kellner.
How they were built
48 fresh characters are brand-new starters at the first level of their career. 16 veterans have played for a while: 13 are at career level 2 and 3 (the Bounty Hunter, the Roadwarden and the Soldier) are at level 3.Characteristics: the species base plus 2d10, written as fixed rolls, then 5 Advances among the career's first-level characteristics. Talents such as Savvy or Warrior Born add +5 to the starting value.Fate and Resilience: the species values plus the species' extra points (3 for Humans and Halflings, 2 for Dwarfs and Elves). Fortune starts equal to Fate and Resolve equal to Resilience, plus 1 for Luck or Strong-minded.Skills: 3 species skills at +5 and 3 at +3, then 40 Advances among the 8 first-level career skills, no more than 10 in any one.Talents: the species talents (random talents written as fixed results) plus 1 talent from the career's first level.Trappings and money: the class and career trappings, and starting money by Status: Brass gives 2d10 brass pennies per point of Standing, Silver 1d10 silver shillings per point, Gold one gold crown per point. Nobody bought anything extra.Experience: species and career were chosen for the roster, so no random-roll XP, but every character kept their characteristics as rolled, which is worth 50 XP . Fresh characters still have it unspent.Veterans paid the 4th edition costs for everything they bought: characteristic Advances from 25 XP and skill Advances from 10 XP each, rising every 5 Advances; talents 100 XP; and 100 XP to step up after completing a level (all three career characteristics at 5 Advances, 8 skills at 5 and a talent from that level, doubled for level 2). The sheets show the XP as Spent with a small Current remainder.Gear uses the core weapon and armour stats: weapon group, Encumbrance, reach or range, damage and qualities, and armour locations and Armour Points. Spellcasters have their Petty spells (one per point of Willpower Bonus), Arcane spells or the Blessings of their god with Casting Numbers.
Load them into your sheets. All 64 characters on this page can go straight into the Character Sheets : press Load sample characters download the sample sheet file and use Import. Each sheet has the species, class, career, level and Status; every characteristic's initial value and Advances (so the bonuses, skills, Wounds, Corruption limit and encumbrance work themselves out); every skill's Advances; the talents with what they do; armour with Armour Points on each location, weapons with damage and qualities, trappings with their Encumbrance and the money in the purse; and spells or prayers. The Notes record the dice rolls, the creation choices and, for veterans, where the XP went. Loading replaces any saved sheet with the same name and leaves your other sheets alone.
Each card shows:
The name , then species, career, career level and Status; the badge is the career level (gold for veterans).
All ten characteristics at their current values, then Wounds , Movement , Fate and Resilience .
The six skills with the most Advances, as the number you roll under : characteristic plus Advances, exactly as the sheet shows it. Then every talent, and any spells or prayers.
A Kit line with the numbers you need at the table: each weapon's damage with the character's Strength Bonus already added, Armour Points by location, and the money in the purse (GC gold crowns, s shillings, d pennies).
