Suggested Characteristics
d10 | Personality Trait |
---|---|
1 | I must have done a favor for a god or something, because I’m weirdly lucky! Food always turns up when I’m hungry, storms usually clear when I need to travel, and I often find useful things and small coinage right when I need them. |
2 | I have read every book in my father’s massive library – twice! |
3 | I grew up in the big city and consider myself very street savvy. I talk fast, walk fast, and no-one gets the better of me. |
4 | I used to work in a kitchen and love to cook for my friends and family. |
5 | I have a talent for medicine. I was the best healer and farm doctor in my village by the time I was 7 years old. By 12 people came from miles around to ask for my help. |
6 | I have an uncommon accent and constantly use slang and colloquialisms, even in formal situations. Crivens! I’ll gie ye sich a kickin’, youse scunners! |
7 | I talk to myself, plants, and animals as freely as I do other humanoids. People often think I’m odd because I had a lonely childhood and no one taught me “normal” social behaviors, but I’m not bothered by it. |
8 | I call everyone by pet names: honey, chief, sweetie, kiddo, slugger, darlin’. It’s something I picked up from my grandmother/father. |
9 | I was raised in a religious household. I would never take any deity’s name in vain and insist that others refrain from doing so as well. |
10 | I do not like children. But kids love me. I am mystified by this. |
d10 | Ideal |
---|---|
1 | Ideal: Environmentalism. The exploitation of nature's bounty is the greatest act of evil. |
2 | Ideal: Frugality. Experience has taught me to be sparing with my resources. |
3 | Ideal: Influence. Anyone who calls it soft power has never met a good diplomat. |
4 | Ideal: Fate. The stars don't set our paths, but our blood surely does. |
5 | Ideal: Secondhand. I don't like to experience anything directly if I can help it. |
6 | Ideal: Might. You either take what you want, or others take what they want from you. |
7 | Ideal: Inventiveness. Creating something out of nothing is the chief magic of the mind. |
8 | Ideal: Pessimism. I find that always expecting the worst completely prevents disappointment. |
9 | Ideal: Structure. My life runs more smoothly when a plan is in place. |
10 | Ideal: Intuition. My gut has gotten me further than my head thus far, so why change tactics? |
d10 | Bond |
---|---|
1 | I will someday get revenge on the corrupt temple hierarchy who branded me a heretic. |
2 | Somewhere out there I have a child who doesn't know me. I'm making the world better for him or her. |
3 | A powerful person killed someone I love. Someday soon, I'll have my revenge. |
4 | I'm trying to pay off an old debt I owe to a generous benefactor. |
5 | I'm guilty of a terrible crime. I hope I can redeem myself for it. |
6 | Someone I loved died because of a mistake I made. That will never happen again. |
7 | I want to be famous, whatever it takes. |
8 | I protect those who cannot protect themselves. |
9 | Nothing is more important that the other members of my family. |
10 | I suffer awful visions of a coming disaster and will do anything to prevent it. |
d10 | Flaw |
---|---|
1 | I am nearly impossible to wake up. I could sleep through a hurricane. |
2 | I care a lot about my appearance. Outfit, hair, makeup – it has to be perfect. How can you expect to be taken seriously in a wrinkled tunic? Some call me vain, but it would be foolish not to use my natural beauty/handsomeness to my full advantage. |
3 | I like to give orders, but I’m not any good at leadership roles. |
4 | Once I get emotional, it’s very hard to calm me down. |
5 | I check everything twice before traveling, sometimes more – do I have my spell components, flint, torch, rope, teddy bear? Some would call me obsessive. |
6 | I was picked on as a kid, but now that I’m grown I can give bullies what they deserve – usually a knuckle sandwich! |
7 | I refuse to tell a lie. In fact, I don’t believe I’m capable of dishonesty. |
8 | I never move faster than I need to and take cat naps whenever possible. It’s not that I’m lazy, I just believe in conserving my energy so that I can give 110% when a challenge does arise. |
9 | I believe a commonly encountered food is a strong poison to my body. I cannot be convinced otherwise. |
10 | I am incredibly superstitious, but always changing which rules I need to follow. One week it might be that I simply can’t wear green because it attracts fey. Next month I may require everyone to make eye contact when they cheers or horrible misfortune may |
