Fluff[]

Background[]

Dane Thoradin came from a rich merchant's house Mykonos' Sanctuary. He grew up enjoying the finer aspects in life and at such a young age understood the true value of gold. He did not do well in general studies and his tutor scolded him for not living up to his potential. His father always laugh after Dane's tutor stormed off in a fury knowing that books did not lie in his son's future.

Dane had two older sisters and one younger brother. They played and grew together as expected for dwarves of their station. It was their mother who stood out from the rest. She was the youngest of another merchant house married more for political reason then for love. While there was a mutual respect by all members of the family, the mother remained distant.

It was a single night that altered the paths of the Thoradin clan. Dane's father was out late due to business. When he returned, he was greeted by only one crying child. Dane held his father's bloodied axe mumbling for forgiviness. Dane tried to explain what he saw and what he had to do but the sight of his father only made things worse. His father could only take in that his children have been slain in their beds while his deceased wife laid at Dane's feet. To this day, it is not known as to why Dane's mother killed her babes while they slept. Nor is it known what Dane saw in his mother's eyes knowing that not "everything will be OK." It is only known that this day, Dane and his father fled their previous lives and that House of Thoradin fell.

    1. The skill numbers in the Math section are correct, but in the summary, Dungeoneering, Heal, Insight, Nature and Perception are off by 1. Since the Math is right, I'll just go ahead and fix them.

    Approved for level 1.

    • Brash Strike - Remove "equal to Constitution modifier" and just have the +3, also add Extra damage to clear up wording
    • Shield Bash - Remove "equal to Wisdom modifier" and just have the +2
    • Knee Breaker - Remove "equal to Constitution modifier" and just have the +3

    Other than that looks good. Minor things so I approve/

    Approved for level 2.

    Comments from TwoHeadsBarking:

    • Summary: You should remove the Dwarf clause from Shield Bash.
    • Summary: Under the Reckless Waraxe, you should remove the "twice this weapon's enhancement bonus" and just leave the number.
    • Fluff: "His only weapon is a waraxe which he wields as effortlessly as his own right arm" is no longer accurate.
    • Attacks: Check Kendrick Kent's sheet to see how to get your RBA to work with strength.
