[sins_to_dark]

I had an idea of making a a charctor based on a samurai, but im a bit stuck on deciding the race and skills,

All i can think of at the moment is blade, block, maybe marksman, and heavy armour but no other ideas on the rest of the major skills and the race of the charctor any ideas would be appriciated

Thanks in advance

MY Advice:

Race: Breton (They can be made to look Asian in facial Characteristics with a little tweaking)

Class: Samurai - Sworn to serve the emporer, they put forth their very lives for honor.


Favored attributes: Strength and Willpower 0 Willpower because of the sheer amount of martial training the Samurai had to endure.

Major Skills:

Blade-Obviously

Heavy Armor - For the Blades Armor, yes its heavy armor

Block - Lets face it you need it.

Marksman - Yes they had infantry that trained with bows, some were actually even women.

Athletics - For those long hard marches to battle.

Speechcraft - To charm the peasants, also, writing poetry, also known as Death Poems, were a large part of a Samurai's life. This is the closest skill I can think of that reflects this aspect

Mysticsm - The closest skill I can think of that reflects the meditatve aspect of their lives. Maybe the "Detect Life" can be used as their legendary prowess on the field of battle, it is said that one samurai killed twenty men blindfolded, and Im not sure, but I think they may have incorporated blind training.
