A character upon entry will be preferable. Not least because I'll be continuing the special offer of trading in fate points for race changes (and not only that).

Reading your charsheets is fun though. So far you're curiously averting Charisma's status as the universal dump stat. :)

I'm apparently no-one... :P
Fine with me!

Skill gained: Totally Invisible: Both the GM & other players forget to note you! Epic successes and failures have their effects diminished on you. AOE effects never target you.

...I also used Charisma for a dump stat. ^^;

Who also used Charisma for a dump stat?

What, in this context, is the meaning of a 'dump stat'?

Because if its what I think it is, then pretty much everything that you didn't pick your 7's and 3 in is a dump stat.

or is it something you 'dump' points into to get it stronger?

Usually it means a stat you rob points from to boost your other skills.

In this context it basically just means what you want to be pure crap at in exchange for having two things you're good at. Considering my character has only one eye I probably should have went for perception, though charisma kinda works too.

*Starts to find something wrong with logic.*

Oh crap the base value is five! The three IS a lesser thing. I completely blanked out on that.

Sorry! Minor confusion!

Just a quick further clarification on those values - these will essentially be the dice used for your rolls. So with a value of [3], the best you can hope for is a partial success at something, with [5] you get mostly equal chances for success and failure (a [5] overshot isn't a big deal), and with [7] you have very good chances of success, though the possibility of a more severe overshot also looms.

Name: Glenn Halt
Tall guy with black hair and green eyes. Usually wants to know why something does what it does. Never really understood people.

Intelligence and Dexterity: 7
Charisma: 3

Someone has to be the resident mechanic. Oh wait scriver is ffff. 2 is better than 1 right? Also, attributes can raise over time, right?
Also, if you include df, maybe make a new objective/key? It definitely won't go the same way though. Elfzilla is so unlikely in the new system.(Especially not twice.) Maybe you could make it be the world after the previous game?

What are you using for dice? Not actual dice I hope... (Good luck finding a 7-sided die!)
Random.org? Or somewhere else?
