Just throwing a question out there to see what kind of fish are biting.
I'm curious to see how others develop their chars. Do you begin with the archtype? Begin with background? Well rounded as opposed to specialized chars? Fill some spaces with "useless" knowledge/active skills? Do you like to develop home-lives for chars? Are home-lives ever brought into the game by GM's out there. In general, I want to know how you do that voodoo that you do. Im done now talk amongst yourselves. |
