#1 Cyber-Dave Jan 13, 2009 22:23:48	The Dhampyr article sparked my imagination for a Dhampyr character from Erlkazar... but I can't find a listed region with regional benefits for Erlkazar in the FRPG. I am wondering, which existing regional benefits would best suit the place? Or, if none, what regional benefits should someone from Erlkazar gain?

I like this one. It relates nicely to the current plight in Erlkazar. Just my .02
#7 Cyber-Dave Feb 04, 2009 22:35:37	I like this one. It relates nicely to the current plight in Erlkazar. Just my .02 I actually don't. There is a reason why people from Erlkazar live in fear, and its not because they are great at resisting the undead. I am kind of a fan of a Bonus to Bluff checks (all that pretending nothing's wrong during the day) and a Bonus to Knowledge checks related to undead.

I can see that, but the backgrounds are for Adventurers, not the "normal" population. Anyone brave enough to rise up and break through the fear and become an adventurer would probably have that resistance, or at least you could make a great case for it.

Anyone brave enough to rise up and break through the fear and become an adventurer would probably have that resistance, or at least you could make a great case for it. Neat distinction there. I can certainly see both options working here, though I still don't know what I would select, myself.
