Some people on the Guild are formatting monsters

@Hey Im Jordan

What's the "Guild"?

You can quote Dog's or my own sheet and see how the format works. It's a bit of work but the gist is to just delete all of our content and replace them with your own stuff but don't touch any of the code.

Also is your sheet a WIP? It looks mostly complete but your missing certain things. Also a big error to point out: no one can use Miracles until Anetha is awakened so Maryam couldn't have magical abilities in her youth.

@Blu

I copied and pasted the player sheet then edited it, so idk what It could be missing.

How in the world did Dog model his sheet like that?

The labyrinth took everything from them.

They said they'd be back. They'd said everything would be alright. They said that they could "be brave" and take care of themselves until they came back.

That was ten years ago.

Ten years to haunt the streets of Aladia like a pack of hungry dogs, accepting charity where they could. Well, Maryam had had enough. She wouldn't perform anymore tricks for food, she wouldn't watch as her younger sisters withered away year after year. She could not think, for another moment, how she had to choose which of her sisters got to eat while the other went hungry.

And so what did she did? She made a mistake.

The Black Scorpion hadn't seemed so scary to her starved, delirious mind. They had plenty of food they weren't eating. They wouldn't notice if a couple pears went missing.

How wrong she was.

She may have gotten ambitious during her raid, emboldened by the misconception that she'd already lost everything worth losing. When she was caught, she was informed otherwise: she had lots worth losing... The only two things that still mattered in her world.

And so she served, an obedient little slave. Evidently she had some innate talent, because they put her to work performing tasks that constantly challenged her both physically and mentally. Of course, she'd have sooner died than join them if her sisters were left to die on the streets, so she could take cold comfort in the fact that they were always nearby... Yet just out of reach. For a time, at least.

Maryam learned many secrets in her time with the Black Scorpion. She picked up many skills... And some that the 'Scorpion wasn't aware of.

In time, she would free herself and her sisters, and escape into the cursed labyrinth that claimed their lives. If not to find salvation... Then, at the least, to find closure, for her and her sisters.

In time... All would be set right. All she needed to do was wait, and gather her strength.

Shrewd beyond her years, Maryam lived the life of a street urchin, and then an agent of chaos. Forced to hone skills in deception and charisma, Maryam is more than capable of playing to anybody's tune... And perhaps changing it. Maryam also always had a natural affinity for Miracles, if nascant and frequently unresponsive. It's difficult to say what she is truly capable of, but if forced to confront her in close-quarters, you best pray she makes it quick.

_{⬦ M I R A C L E S}

Maryam's affinity for Miracles has always been lackluster. Despite all of her martial training and mental acuity, magic is simply a skill she has a poor grasp on. As such, she replies heavily on a particular set of Regalia, covertly appropriated from the Black Scorpion. She hadn't known what they were at the time, mistaking them for simple trinkets; the Regalia in question takes on the form of teardrops earrings. When inactive, they bear little more significance than common jewelry. However, once active, they glimmer with an extraordinary incandescence. Maryam calls them "Embers", and uses them to enhance herself and her allies with minor physical and mental enhancements.

I may be awhile @_@ just a heads up

Instruction In Kingmaking

So, what would happen if you became indebted to the Black Scorpion? Say you stole something from them, or committed some other crime and was caught, but not killed.

@Blu

Too late! I've already formulated a pretty neat concept inspired by classic Arabian dancers. I'd like a little more information on what the local culture is like, though, so I can create a suitable background for her. I'm thinking she may have grown up raising and defending two younger sisters, which served as the basis for her current job. I'm still murky on details, but I do know I want 'Embers' to be involved. Regalia, perhaps? Little magical crystals she uses for passive effects that she probably gave to her generals.

On the subject of unique characters, I began to create a character concept paying homage to "the Barefoot Goddess" and the Arabian theme here with the Lord of War, but I'm a bit unclear if that would work out if there's a different patron god for Aladia. Can characters draw power from a different god than their own, or should I wait to hear the final verdict on who Aladia's God will be before I go off on a tangent?

Oh! Question (sorry for adding a new post, I just felt this should be seperate.) Can Lords have their own vassals? Like, could the Lord of War have a handful of generals and such that are responsible for different parts of the wall? I feel some level of delegation is involved in the duties of these influential individuals.
