(to a +1 or-1 to members of the same race).<br /><br />The Traits Cautious / Rash and Courageous / Fearful will together influence the initiative a character has in his first roll in a combat scene. (example; a Cautious 16, and Fearful 4 character will reduce his initial initiative by –1 –1 = – 2. if he rolled a 4 he could make hit action in the first combat round at 2. A Slow, Haste or Speed spell or magic effect will negate this effect to 0. <br /><br />The Social Modifier is a number created from these Traits, Social class,Family Status, and Status(profession, etc)<br />and will affect reactions to members of society as thus.Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03336932065181438822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2952352431882892872.post-37730919609583980532013-04-11T07:42:38.906+02:002013-04-11T07:42:38.906+02:00I'm actually compiling a set of house rules fo...I'm actually compiling a set of house rules for my own campaign (about 150 pages so far lol), and I've come up with a replacement for the Northern Reaches character traits. I wanted fewer traits so that each could mean more. I've ended up combining 10 of the traits into 5 new ones, changed Energetic / Lazy to Physical / Intellectual, and converted Reverent / Godless to Piety Points. :-)Pippin Stranohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13832001332414676400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2952352431882892872.post-58466821034451091502013-03-26T00:16:42.420+01:002013-03-26T00:16:42.420+01:00Hai Pippin

Character statistics are for most player character races still between 3 and 18. Although some races have greater stats, but you''ll be able to discover that in the upcoming Monster Manual. I hope that ASAP i'll be able to host it somewhere and provide a link. If you have any other idea to this please inform me, as i'm too new on the internet.<br />I'll try and see if I can place Traits information here. I must have compilred it somewhere in an older unfinished book of mine "In the Line of Duty". I must make myself to finish that too, then convert it to PDF en putting it online. This goes about everything of character creation, skills, weapon mastery, basic statistics, classes, and other stuff.<br />Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03336932065181438822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2952352431882892872.post-2099089007587791082013-03-25T21:40:05.504+01:002013-03-25T21:40:05.504+01:00Thank you for putting this up :-) The use of the ...Thank you for putting this up :-) The use of the Reverent Trait is new and a great idea. My only question with it is that my understanding is that the personality traits are in a range from 1 to 20, not 3 to 18. Are you referring to something other than what I'm thinking of?Pippin Stranohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13832001332414676400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2952352431882892872.post-45909508956740156332013-03-23T13:52:34.721+01:002013-03-23T13:52:34.721+01:00I Don't Know who wrote the original chapter in...I Don't Know who wrote the original chapter in Dragon Magazine, But although I have adapted it partially It is not comoletely my own work.<br />So when this individual's name is known to me it will be added here out of respect.<br />Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03336932065181438822noreply@blogger.com
