For sure xD I could totally see Gnomish boats hardly even looking like boats, more like big floating bowls with a bunch of stuff sticking out the top. Unless you're a gnome, it's impossible to tell which end is the front xD
Taking the term 'gnomish gunboat' to an all new meaning. Its a 4 foot long rowboat with a 3 foot long cannon.
"We don't have 1 ship with 40 cannons, We have 40 ships with 1 cannon!"
Appearance:
Name:
Jagluiperd Dokter "Kalahari"
Age:
15/40 (26/100)
Nationality:
Africa (Afrika Korps)
Three random facts about your character:
*Can speak Afrikaan, Zulu, German, and english with a clear accent from his feline mouth.
*Due to his heightened metabolic rate, he is always eating something, as such he has both become a fair chef and has a favoritism to insect bassed foods.
*To pass by boredom, he is a juggler and a collector of weapons. Sometimes even a juggler of weapons as long as it isn't grenades, again.
Mutant Power:
Permanent Feline(cheetah) physiology; A moderate healing factor reflected my an increased metabolic rate, roughly his body cycles much faster than humans, making injuries that take weeks to heal last only days. He can jump up to 35 feet forward at a run and 7-15 feet high from a standing. He can also reach speeds of 70 mph for one minute before breaking stride and can cover 90 feet a second. His senses are sharper than a humans, and his reaction time is truly monstrous. His changed physiology makes him resistant to many human and feline specific diseases, but he can still carry the sickness like a Typhoid Mary.
Biography:
Born in Cape Horn to medical parents and German army veterans of World war One. His mother was a medical nurse and his father was a equine veterinarian who chose to get as far away from the war as they could, settling down in the southernmost point in all of Africa. For the first decade of his life he was like any other child growing up in his region, but the changes started around his tenth year.
His bones burned, his skin itched as he grew hair at a bewildering rate. Fearing an epidemic of some kind, they quarenteened his home while he screamed in agony while his teeth fell out to make room for his new fangs. For a whole year, his life was constant agony while his parents watched on... and documented. They were medically fascinated by the change in their son to the point of treating him like a patient rather than their boy. By the end of the year he was a new man, and he was finally coming into his own, Charting his growth, his family calculated he had physically aged three years while mutating, an 11 year old mind in a 14 year old's body. if he kept this new rate, he would be a hundred years old by the time he was forty.
Unable to bear the depression of a son who could end up buried before them or even turn again into a wild animal if he were to hit a second puberty, they sent him away to an 'uncle' who was an armchair anthropologist of African lore along with a copy of the medical file. Unbeknown to them, their friend was a member of the Nazi party who studied African lore as part of the orders of 'Ahnenerbe' to build a new wold lore and fallen civilizations to make facts fit fiction. With this half animal boy set in his hands, he took the advantage to train the boy as a hitler youth for a year in the ways of war while parading him around African tribes to prove his powerful 'magic' and the like.
Not caring for his dehumanization, but grateful for the care he was receiving and positive attention to a 12 year old boy in a 17 year old body, he could hardly complain. By the time he was 13 going on 21, he was actively supporting this idea and ideal of the propaganda. He was taught how to fight with both Rifle and Bayonet using Zulu warrior techniques to adopt African warrior methods when taking on tribe champions. In many ways he started thinking of it like a game as he was being molded into his'uncle's perfect solider... Then his uncle died.
No great battle, no charging animal, just a bug bite when visiting the outhouse. He was dead within the month and now the boy had nowhere else to go. He was making his way back to his parents in Cape Horn when he was found by a most interesting group on his 15th birthday.

As a character, I'd rather face gunmen than archers and here is why:
1) 30-60 seconds between each pistol shot versus 3-6 seconds between each arrow.
2) Pistols were only lethal within 10 feet and damaging within 100 feet with an increasing miss chance of half for every 10 feet (100%,50%,25%,15%,7%,3%,1%,). English long-bowmen can hit a 10X10' area at 100 Yards.
3) You have to keep the powder dry, the wick/match dry and lit, the pan dry and full, all while on the seas, in poor weather. Versus a crossbow you can keep knocked for 10 minutes before firing without damaging the bow or waxed string, in any weather.
Please, I'll take the human musketeers over elven archers every day of the week.

I was considering a stuck furry speedster from the Afrikorps like a cheeta or gazel, but the likes of quicksilver from days of future past bother me as over the top gamebreaking if one can dodge bullets so I started thing of twenty people hitting once rather than one hitting twenty times. A cloning ninja not like naruto which is where the ninjutsu legend came from. Historically it was not one ninja capable of a dozen amazing feats, it was actually twelve people all dressed identical each with one specalization, the climbing expert went up the wall perfectly and left a rope for the others to come up easily behind him, then the one skilled in stealth snuck up to the guard to remove the lookout so the others could pass in the window provided, each one leapfrogging their skills like an edo-era-oceans-eleven.
I'd like to revamp an old favorite, but I want peoples help in sculpting away at him. As he is he is stealth heavy skill monkey he augments with his power set. But like the seductress I think he might be too jack of all trades...
[spoilers]Name:
Magnus Wagner
Code Name:
Bamf
Age:
20 (been drinking since a teenager and cant wait for next year, not that it stops him)
Gender:
Male, very male
Appearance:
5'6" with a very lean Bruce-Lee frame. On his chest is tattooed an Egyptian cartouche that reads "He will serve the end of the world for a year and a day" On his right hand he has L O K I on his first knuckles.
Taught never to depend on any one thing, from skills to powers, he keeps a number of tools on hand at all times.
Tanto Located on his left pectoral with a kevlar mesh sheath as an extra measure of defense from heart-shots.
Ninjato Kept on left hip.
Grenades: Never keeping more than two on him at any time in uniform after hearing the story of his grandfather pulling the pins of a dozen soldiers at once. Chaff-nonmagnetic metal flakes meant to scramble electronic measures, Knocker-compressed microfine Metal powder used to blow open door with high kinetic output or stun multiple organic opponents
throwing irons As designed, but his are hollow and fluted with multiple tiny holes to ensure a sucking wound to let an opponent bleed out if organic or hydraulic if he can land the right shot. Kept on his person on a thigh holster even out of uniform.
Sling: Simple kevlar thong used to hurl a simple fiberglass sphere with enough force to break bone, When he slips a thread through the ring of a grenade, it becomes a twofold weapon to launch the five pound weapon to impact before exploding. This he also keeps on a pocket with a hard rubber ball in civilian attire.
Uniform: A class A-III fabric armor in the make of denim jacket and pants with impact plastics Velcro atop. Can withstand up to .357 at point blank with only broken bones.
Powers:
Physical mutation: His physiology is unique in several different ways. His bone structure allows him great flexibility. His spine is more flexible than an ordinary human, enabling him to remain in a crouched position for a long time and perform contortionist-type feats without causing any damage to his spine. Bamf's balance and bodily coordination are all enhanced to superhuman levels. He also possesses superhuman dexterity, being able to manipulate items and fence with either hand and his tail. He lacks his fathers prehensile feet but does have five fingers and toes that let him pass for human easier. He has a prehensile tail, allowing him to grab onto objects with relative ease. His tail is strong enough to not only support his body weight, but also lift an adult man completely off the ground at the same time, and is deft enough to fight with while holding a sword or blunt object. His eyes (which are constantly washed in black) grant him a marked degree of heightened night vision.
Wall crawling: Where his father could blend into the shadows by warping light, he can stick to shadows by an instinctive connection to the home dimension of his father and grandfather. This allows him to fight in a third dimension most others lack but also means he can not cling to an activated ceiling light for example beyond his physical strength.
SKILLS
Trained in the formal art of Ninjutsu by psylocke, he puts his mutant physiology to best use as an infiltrator. He has been taught how to consciously filter out the lightest levels of psychic invasion thought a 'moving meditation'.
Magic(k): While a weak skill now, it is to note he keeps a store of occult books and the like, some real, some just to piss his dad off. His superhuman dexterity makes the sleight of hand as easy as breathing but he does also practice a few practical incantations like sewing glyphs into all of his clothes so they will put themselves away.
Personality:
For the most part he is happy go lucky to hide his pain of loosing all the life he had ever known. He has always had a fascination with sleight of hand and stage magic, On quiet nights he loves to curl up with horrible kung-fu movies and a plate of sushi to pass the time away whenever a girl isn't available. Even being the prodigal son of two great mutants and the grandson of even greater mutants he is still a physical mutant, he can never pass in normal society. As such he has a deep seeded hate for 'pretty' mutants who can pass by unseen and will bend over backwards, literally, for those who cant hide themselves. Where his father was a devout Catholic, Magnus has always carried a despise for the church's position on mutants to the point he is a vocal follower of Loki, a 'real god' of Asgard that has put many a hero of earth on their heels.
History:
In another time and another place the mutants lost at Alcatraz. It became a campaign of slaughter on a planet wide level, In that reality, Kurt wagner and wanda maximoff had a child who was born in bloodshed and forced to fight from the time of a child, in time it became evident that they wouldn't survive so they went to the oldest and most powerful enemy they knew, Apocalypse. They agreed to become his newest horsemen in this world if he got their son to safety on another, The first mutant agreed and sent the teenager to a reality whose other Aubin-sur matched his own temperament and psychic harmonics. The new Apocalypse understood what had been done with a simple letter tattooed int the boys chest, and handed the boy over to Xaviers school anonymously. This Xavier knew the boys past and did all he could to try and help heal a lifetime of war, but healing can't be done if it is unwanted. For years he studied at the academy and learned his lessons to master his powers so they didn't master him but there was too much ill will in his heart to be a member of the x-men. He spent some time with the morloks in new york and even served as a higher mok in a few darker circles, but nothing as prestigious as the hellfire club. Fearing for the day apocalypse called in his favor, he was deemed a potential danger to the world and so he "volunteered" to join shield who instilled him into a program to make the best use of his skills.
Notes:
*Magnus has a fear of heights/falling from a failed attempt to teleport that broke his spine, resulting in two of his bones to have to be fused to let him walk again.
*In his home world, physical manifestations are far more prominent mutations than in this realm, as such he has a much stronger favor to disfigured women then "pretties" as the morloks call them to the point of a fetish.

I have a pathfinder character I've wanted to try and here would be just as good as any to let it out: A half orc paragon of a sorcerer with red dragon blood in his veins (technically crossblooded orc and dragon bloodlines but again shying away from direct character facts, but going to use them for the character skeleton) He is a fire mage through and through, and on the sea, fire is a dangerous threat.
Character concept inspired from: https://unithralith.wordpress.com/2013/03/12/fire-sorcerer-of-ultimate-destruction/
Rough character image, He uses a gun as his casting focus like a wand:
