Dotting for interest - thinking of submitting an Ulfen Skald (Urban Skald) - an exiled warrior-skald from the hard lands of The North, whose fallen into harder times in Riddleport.
Known as a Tavern Truth Seeker and Sword Tongued, the big Viking likes a drink, loves a tall tale and wields insults almost as handily as his great ax.
Profile is work in progress - crunch and fluff will be nailed down over the next day or so. Slow paced game suits me well, and I'm part of a number of long running games here on the boards. Prefer role over roll
@Slothsy: Am a big fan of binding traits into builds both for mechanics and particularly for flavour - would you allow Additional Traits feat for a 1st Level option?
The tall Northman eyes the fluttering sign with first a scowl as he read the rain bled lettering, followed by a nod of his shaggy head.
Slowly he trudged toward the Gold Goblin. He knew of the gambling house, though he had rarely frequented the place... Games of chance held little lure for the skald, he preferred contests of words or the drinking horn. It mattered not, his skills were in dealing with troublemakers and entertaining patrons...
Inside he stood; soggy and scarred, waiting to speak with the manager - a tall shield-maid who had something of the álfr about her...
"Greetings Mistress. The note said you were hiring? All walks considered you say? Já I hafa seen much... The North was once my heim. Now I am a nīðing... exile. They say I am breaker of oaths und shields. I will say this... minn words oft finish fights better than any fist... I do seek honour anew... You talk of Glory... Adventure... Gull und treasures... Then let us drink the kegs dry und talk of glories lost and those to koma! Und on the morrow, if you wish it, I will pledge ax und voice to you und your company!"
