Editing Badlands Chargen

__NOTOC__
[[SWADE:_Out_of_the_Badlands|< < < Back to Main Page]]

You're a Duster, at home in the badlands. You look human, but you're really not. Life in the wilds has changed you on a fundamental level, and you and your crew and your airship are the lynchpins that hold society together.

==Source Material==
[[SWADE:_Out_of_the_Badlands|< < < Back to Main Page]]

We will be using Savage Worlds Adventure Edition - '''SWADE''' - for this game.

==Setting Rules==
[[SWADE:_Out_of_the_Badlands|< < < Back to Main Page]]

'''Heroes Never Die:''' As implied, things that should kill you somehow don't. Wild Card NPCs get similar benefit.

'''More Skill Points:'''  PCs begin with '''15''' skill points instead of 12. 
:Additionally, '''Piloting/Boating''' will be treated as a single skill and is considered a Core Skill in this campaign, starting at [[file:d4a.png|20px]] instead of untrained.

'''Languages:''' Everyone speaks '''Trade Tongue''' in the settlements of men, including Dusters. 

Dustlings, small humanoid creatures native to the badlands, have their own language, '''Ting''', that is rarely understood by settled folk, but which can be spoken and understood by the Dusters who share the badlands with them. 

Dusters have also developed their own pidgin of Trade and Ting that they often speak among themselves.

==Duster Template==
[[SWADE:_Out_of_the_Badlands|< < < Back to Main Page]]

'''Outsider''' - Dusters appear human on the surface - mostly - but settled folk can sense something is ''off'' with them.  Persuasion rolls are made at '''-2''' vs settled humans.

'''Environmental Resistance''' (Dust) - Dusters get +4 to resist the negative effects of Dust that plagues the  badlands.

'''Attribute Increase''' (Player's Choice) - One attribute (Agility, Smarts, Spirit, Strength, or Vigor) starts at [[file:d6a.png|20px]] and that attribute die's maximum is [[file:d12a.png|20px]] '''+1'''.

'''Adaptable''' - Gain one free Novice edge that you meet the requirements for.

==Skills== 
[[SWADE:_Out_of_the_Badlands|< < < Back to Main Page]]

The skills '''Driving''', '''Electronics''', '''Hacking''', and '''Language''' won't see use in this game. 

Similarly, the ''Power'' skills '''Faith''', '''Psionics''', '''Spellcasting''' and '''Weird Science''' are  unavailable.

'''Focus''' is available, but will only be useful to those who take the edge: '''Arcane Background''' (Gifted).

'''Piloting/Boating''' will be treated as a single skill and is considered a Core Skill in this campaign, starting at [[file:d4a.png|20px]] instead of untrained.

==Hindrances== 
[[SWADE:_Out_of_the_Badlands|< < < Back to Main Page]]

Because we will be posting as-available in action scenes, the '''Hesitant''' hindrance is unavailable to take. 

'''Young''' is also off the table, because I'm not willing to run kids as PCs in this game.

==Gear==
Tech level is mostly wild west-ish, if the wild west had airships. Make your choices for personal gear accordingly. We will be using the '''Wealth''' stat instead of x-monies-per-character. 

We won't roll '''Wealth''' for starting gear, but your starting gear is subject to GM approval. (If it seems reasonable, it will be approved).

:[[file:d4a.png|20px]] This is starting '''Wealth''' for characters with the '''Poverty''' hindrance.

:[[file:d6a.png|20px]] This is starting '''Wealth''' for base characters.

:[[file:d8a.png|20px]] This is starting '''Wealth''' for characters with the '''Rich''' edge.

:[[file:d10a.png|20px]] This is starting '''Wealth''' for characters with the '''Very Rich''' edge


The party will collectively have their own airship that will get statted out by the group in development.

:[[file:d8a.png|20px]] This is starting '''Wealth''' for the ship.

==Rank and Advances==
[[SWADE:_Out_of_the_Badlands|< < < Back to Main Page]]

Build your characters as '''Novices''' plus one (1) '''Advance'''.
