Okay. Let's find out how to generate a character basing on the Game Mechanic of MYFAROG v.2.7. It's about a 'Stamina' Skill and other Skills issues.
Hey! I already posted my thoughts how our characters obtain Skills during a generation. Check that topic here 👉 'You CAN'T obtain new Skills when you play MYFAROG!'. So, I was wrong with that way of generation. I thought it over one more time and I'd like to present you a new method that I discovered not so long time ago. I think it could be interesting for you.
I. PRE-CHARACTER
Let's generate a pre-character. A pre-character doesn't have any Character Role at all.
1) Page 5. Step 1. A Species + A Race:
i. It's 17 on 3D6. A Thulêan.
ii. It's 13 on 3D6. A Native.
2) Step 2. A gender is male.
3) Page 8. Step 3 and Step 4. Attributes (A male Thulêan Native has +0 for every Racial Modification):
i. It's 11 and 13 on 3D6. CHA = 13/Cha = +1
ii. It's 10 and 13 on 3D6. CON = 13/Con = +1
iii. It's 14 and 11 on 3D6. DEX = 14/Dex = +1
iv. It's 9 and 10 on 3D6. INT = 10/Int = +0
v. It's 13 and 10 on 3D6. STR = 13/Str = +1
vi. It's 10 and 10 on 3D6. WIL = 10/Wil = +0
4) Page 8. Step 5 and Step 6. A Height + Weight and Size:
i. It's 15 on 4D6. 58 + 4D6''. 58 + 15 = 73'' (1 inch = 2.46 cm. Page 64.)
ii. It's 8 on 4D6. 4D6 * 3 + (Str * 10) + 40. 8 * 3 + (+1 * 10) + 40 = 74; 73'' + 74 = 147 bowl-pounds (1 bowl-pound = 0.5 kg. Page 64.)
ii. A size of pre-character based on his weight is +0 (Medium). (Page 9)
5) Step 7. A Social Class:
For Example, he's Noble.
6) Pages 12 and 13. Step 8 and Step 9. A birthplace + A Life Stance:
i. It's 14 on D20. It means Trôskenia ("Tower Gate").
ii. It's 4 on D6. It means he has the Âsatrû Life Stance.
7) Step 10. A Cultural Background:
He was born in Trôskenia. I have to choose two Skills from an 'Acting', 'Social Skills', 'World Lore' basing on his birthplace.
I picked 'Social Skills', a 'World Lore'.
8) Step 11. A Tribe Name. I skipped this step, because I try to show you what happens with exact Skills only.
9) Step 12. I skipped all other unnecessary steps which are beyond this topic.
10) Page 14. Step 13. Talents:
I can choose 1 Talent without a prerequisite. My choice is 🤬 'Aggressive' +1 Initiative.
11) Page 16. Step 14. A Character Role. Here is most interesting things ☝️
For example, my favourite Deity is Skanþan. Note there is no words in the text I have some Skills by default. Including a 'Perception', 'Dodging', 'Tempo'. But if we check out the page 21, we'll see that a 'Perception', 'Dodging', 'Tempo' are not applicable (n/a). I suppose I can mark these a 'Perception', 'Dodging', 'Tempo' as are by default for my pre-character. Okay.
Next, I try to understand which a Character Role suits to my Attributes. I think I'd like to be a Trickster to do business with the Trickster circle.
The Trickster Character Role requires an equality with or a number more than 9 CHA, 9 DEX, 9 INT for both genders. My CHA, DEX, INT are 13, 14, 10 and I'm male. Well done.
Let's check the page 21 again. There is which Skills I have as a Trickster. Skills are Trained.
I have Skills as a Trickster:
i. 'Acrobatics'
ii. 'Acting'
iii. 'Climbing'
iv. 'Mechanics'
v. 'Social Skills'
vi. 'Stealth'
vii. 'Trickery'
I remember that I picked 'Social Skills', a 'World Lore' as two Trained Skills, because of the birthplace. I have two the same Skills, but I can't have two the same Skills in the same time (the page 13). I just replace 'Social Skills' of my first choice by 'Social Skills' of the Trickster Character Role.
TOTAL:
I have these Skills presently:
i. 'Dodging' (n/a (by default)
ii. 'Tempo' (n/a (by default)
iii. 'Perception' (n/a (by default)
iv. 'World Lore' (Trained based on a Cultural Background)
v. 'Acrobatics' (Trained based on the Trickster Character Role)
vii. 'Acting' (Trained based on the Trickster Character Role)
viii. 'Climbing' (Trained based on the Trickster Character Role)
ix. 'Mechanics' (Trained based on the Trickster Character Role)
x. 'Social Skills' (Trained based on the Trickster Character Role)
xi. 'Stealth' (Trained based on the Trickster Character Role)
xii. 'Trickery' (Trained based on the Trickster Character Role)
12 Trained Skills. Now, it's not a pre-character, but a complete Trickster character.
From now I can't add Skills in my Skills Set with a reason I just want it. My Skill Set is completed. Other new Skills I can add only when I reach new experienced Levels and those new Skills will be Untrained for me.
Now, look... I don't have a 'Stamina' Skill! I couldn't pick a 'Stamina' based on my birthplace, because there is no 'Stamina' for people from Trôskenia. Also, a 'Stamina' is absent in the Skill Set of Trickster! It means when a game is started for me then my character will be exhausted just IMMIDIATELY. It'll happen to my character, because he has no Stamina Points. I need to add a 'Stamina', when I'll reach a New Level, but I can't move, because my character is exhausted permanently. What the hell is it? Moreover, I DON'T HAVE a 'Melee' Skill!!!! I'm not able to use even a knife to protect myself. Even though, I have a 'Melee' Skill' I'm not able to use it anyway, because I'm always exhausted. How to solve this problem? 🤔
SOLUTION.
II. A CIVILIAN
Well, the second way. Let's generate exact a Civilian character. A pre-character doesn't have any Character Role at all, but in this case we generate a Civilian character at the beginning. Why? Because a Civilian Character Role give us an option to pick any 4 Trained Skills more! Yes, you can do it. Because if you check the page 16, you'll see that a Civilian Character Role doesn't require any prerequisites (n/a). It means that your character can be a Civilian instantly even before he/she acquires Attributes! After every step, we'll just convert a Civilian Character into a None-Civilian character. In this way we manage to add more Skills to our hero. Let's do it.
I started the same first generation anew, but from step 10.
7) Page 13. Step 10. A Cultural Background:
He was born in Trôskenia. I have to choose two Skills from 'Acting', 'Social Skills', 'World Lore' basing on his birthplace.
I picked 'Social Skills', 'World Lore'.
8) Step 11. A Tribe Name. I skipped this step, because I try to show you what happens with exact Skills only.
9) Step 12. I skipped all other unnecessary steps which are beyond this topic.
10) Step 13. Talents:
I can choose 1 Talent without a prerequisite. My choice is 🤬 'Aggressive' +1 Initiative.
11) Step 14. A Character Role. So, it isn't a pre-character as I typed about it above, but a Civilian character. It means I can choose 4 more Trained Skills (the page 21).
My choice is the same. I want to be a Trickster, but while I'm a Civilian I do my choice with Skills. First of all, I remember I crucially need a 'STAMINA' and a 'Melee'!!
I picked next four Skills as a Civilian:
i. 'Stamina'!
ii. 'Melee'!
iii. 'Religious Tradition'
iv. 'Riding'
Now, let's convert a Civilian character into a Trickster character.
I have Skills as a Trickster:
i. 'Acrobatics'
ii. 'Acting'
iii. 'Climbing'
iv. 'Mechanics'
v. 'Social Skills'
vi. 'Stealth'
vii. 'Trickery'
I remember that I picked 'Social Skills', a 'World Lore' as two Trained Skills, because of the birthplace. I have two the same Skills, but I can't have two the same Skills in the same time (the page 13). I just replace 'Social Skills' of my first choice by 'Social Skills' of the Trickster Character Role.
TOTAL:
I have these Skills presently:
i. 'Dodging' (n/a (by default)
ii. 'Tempo' (n/a (by default)
iii. 'Perception' (n/a (by default)
iv. 'World Lore' (Trained based on a Cultural Background)
v. 'Stamina'! (Trained based on the Civilian Character Role)
vi. 'Melee'! (Trained based on the Civilian Character Role)
vii. 'Religious Tradition' (Trained based on the Civilian Character Role)
viii. 'Riding' (Trained based on the Civilian Character Role)
ix. 'Acrobatics' (Trained based on the Trickster Character Role)
x. 'Acting' (Trained based on the Trickster Character Role)
xi. 'Climbing' (Trained based on the Trickster Character Role)
xii. 'Mechanics' (Trained based on the Trickster Character Role)
xiii. 'Social Skills' (Trained based on the Trickster Character Role)
xiv. 'Stealth' (Trained based on the Trickster Character Role)
xv. 'Trickery' (Trained based on the Trickster Character Role)
15 Trained Skills. Now it's not a Civilian character, but a complete Trickster character.
If you're confused with a fact I changed a Character Role from a Civilian to a Trickster. Yeah, this possibility is really restricted by rules (the page 11)! I know I can't change my Life Stance hence some Character Role. An occasion when your Life Stance under a risk to be changed is really unlikely in a game. Second way, you can lose your Character Role when you're not Noble more and your Character Role requires being Noble. It's not about a Trickster within this rule. Anyway, you can't lose your Noble status before a game. Even though, you want to convert a Civilian into a Berserk you can do it. Because you make a convert before a game starts! But when your hero is already putted into the MYFAROG World you can't change a Character Role as you please it from that moment.
I hope this post is useful for you. Thank you!
