the game I am running now does not take place in Innsmouth, though I am surprised you know this place ^^ anyway, you can be a chinese scholar, sure.

join join join ^^

[K T Ong]

Perhaps we can start with just me first? (Maybe you can add in a NPC to accompany my character. )

Oh, and perhaps my character's area of interest will be on finding out about the legend of the Plateau of Leng, which he suspects to be some silly Chinese legend. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

[TheThing]

alright, we will start with just you then

take a look at the character sheet front (here).

you as a scholar has the following skills:

Bargain,
Credit Rating,
Library Use,
Other Language,
Persuade,
Psychology

and any two of the following:
Anthropology, Archaeology, Astronomy, Biology, Chemistry, Electronics, Geology, History, Law, Medicine, Natural History, or Physics

you have 320 points to distribute into the above 8 skills.

you are skilled in two languages, Chinese and English
you can choose a third language as your Other Language. (you need to distribute points in it in order to make it good)

and you have 120 points to distribute among skills other than the one listed above. recommanded skills are:

Listen
Spot Hidden
Fast Talk
or Any of the firearm skills


tell me how you distribute your points, and I will fill out the character sheet for you

I tried getting to the character sheet front, but got the error message, "plugin did not initialise properly."

Anyway, I'll pick Natural History and Archaelogy. As for other language, I'll pick Sanskrit.

I'll also pick Spot Hidden and one Firearm skill. (What firearm can I have? ) And I guess I'll just have my points evenly distributed among my skills.

Okay, now let's go to Arkham where I can date Randolph Carter's daughter.

What skills are police skillz?
