Generic NPCs

[Sanctaphrax]

Added aspects to the Barbarian.

So, why would the catch be magic? Not saying it's a bad idea, I just don't understand. Are barbarians in D&D very vulnerable to magical attack?

[sandchigger]

The barbarians of the sword and sorcery novels upon which the D&D Barbarian class is based were traditionally frightened or distrustful of magic. Think about the classic sword & sorcery novel with the big strong fighter type going up against the eeeeeeeeeeeevil wizard.

That's why it should be magic. =)

[Sanctaphrax]

That works, I guess. I didn't much like leaving the catch unknown.

hey so i started playing dresden files about 3 months ago buts sadly we have stopped playing for now and were are thankfully going to go back to but anyway so i was looking at this thread and you did awsome with all of the NPC's i especialy like the legion demon and all the other supernatuarl heavyweights if not really close to them.  i was wondering if you could make me a couple NPC's at the deep one level. what i'd like them to be is the frost family.

[Sanctaphrax]

Sure, always glad to help.

But I'm afraid that I don't know what the frost family is.

[zaczane]

the frost family would easily be or at least a lower supernatural heavyweight. they include grandfather Glacier, King Blizzard (AKA dad), Mother Sleet, Barrakan the runaway brother who left his family to become a very powerful fire wizard or pyromancer.  then the one that usally every one knows about Narvanna    (AKA Jack Frost)  now they rule the frost kingdom which wuld be located up in greenland some were i think.  now there major weakness is fire but they have this power that allows them to be healed by there weakness or fire but its a 1 in 4 chance. thats who they are and why they are so powerful.

hey me again i finished looking at all your other generic NPC's and i think there all great. now personally i would hate to have to put to gether that many character but then agian im not you and im also not the GM for my game my friend is.  but hey you like doing that work i give it to yah if thats ok and i really really liked the legion demoned because that gave me a couple ideas for my master piece

[zaczane]

well ah what the hell he's not finished yet but ill tell yah anyways. i am in the making of the 2nd most powerful supernatural heavyweight or what all my friends and i belive him to be. his name is Averax and he started as just a mortal but then was sucked into the outer gate and was imbedded with its power so simpler terms he is now the God/King of the Entire Outer Gate.

Good job Sanctaphrax, I love all of your NPC's.  I am preparing to run a game starting in May.  (I have also bookmarked the Wiki)

Any suggestions for a Gamer/Occult book store owner?

[zaczane]

a  gamer/occultist as an NPC hhmmm sounds interesting like a videogame player that owns a bookstore about the occult or just the supernatural

[Samael]

Gamer in the sense of pen and paper RPGs, ala DFRPG, Pathfinder, GURPS, DnD, Exalted, etc.

Gamer in the sense of paper/pencil.

oh goch-ya like us the people who play dresden files.

Sancta, I'm enjoying your Class cross-posts. 

Personally, I'd use Powers, as opposed to Stunts, for the Paladin's Lay On Hands and Smite Evil features.  I've seen several "holy healing" powers (including one that I created, myself) that might be appropriate for the former.  For the latter, perhaps an altered Holy Touch?
