| − | *Name: Will Tarlton, AKA Bouffon the Fool, AKA Stiletto the Clown
| + | * 1st level Bard (Jester kit) played by [http://forum.rpg.net/member.php?u=30405 Feste] |
| − | *Gender: Male
| + | * human, 5'9", 164#, age 25 |
| − | *Date of Birth:
| + | * olive skin, brown eyes, black hair |
| − | *Age: 25
| |
| − | *Alignment: Lawful Good
| |
| − | *Description: Lean near the point of frailty, with an olive complexion; black hair to his shoulders and brown, serious eyes
| |
| − | *History and Personality: Will is still well-known in the small theatrical community of Chendl, having pioneered a natural style of acting quite different from the mannered portrayals common to the stage. He is still a fine singer, too, though his fortunes fell with those of Bouffon the Fool, a royal favorite. The events leading to his banishment from the castle grounds were engineered, he has concluded, from start to finish. This was not clear for the first week, which Will spent at the bottom of a wine glass--then Kalinstren contacted him again with an offer of the role of a lifetime: spy. The jester's talents had not gone unnoticed, and the threat of war led Furyondian intelligence to cast the widest possible nets in recruitment. Given some training in linguistics, Will was to infiltrate east of the river Veng to observe and report to his superior. Necessary to his dual identity was a concerted effort to appear every inch the embittered cast-off, and Will cultivates an image of drunkard and libertine, embodied in his new identity, Stiletto the Clown. His secret career has inspired him to greater heights on the stage, even as his apparent dissipation has enraged fellow thespians. He often leaves Chendl for months at a time to entertain across northern Furyondy, and to train under his new master.

| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Class Abilities===
| |
| − | * Alter moods – While performing before a non-hostile group, the bard may alter the group’s mood. Everyone who hears the bard perform must save vs. paralyzation, with a penalty of one for every three levels of the bard. If the save fails, the group’s mood may be shifted one level in the direction wished by the bard.
| |
| − | * Climb walls* 65% – Allows the bard to climb smooth or vertical surfaces.
| |
| − | * Counter effects – Allows the bard to counter song based attacks.
| |
| − | * Detect noise* 25% – May hear faint sounds.
| |
| − | * History 15% – Gives a bard a 5% chance per level to identify a magic item by closely examining the item. | |
| − | * Pick pockets* 15% – Allows the bard to pilfer small items from another’s pocket or purse.
| |
| − | * Rally friends – By spending three rounds, the bard may grant their comrades a +1 bonus on attack rolls, a +1 bonus to saving throws, or a +2 bonus to Morale rolls. The range of the effect is 10 feet, and lasts one round per level of the bard.
| |
| − | * Read languages* 10% – Gives a chance to read languages not familiar to the bard.
| |
| − | * Wizard spells – Allows the bard to cast wizard spells.
| |
| − | * Schools of Magic – Enchantment/Charm, Illusion/Phantasm
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Kit Abilities===
| |
| − | * Jesters receive a +1 bonus (+5% on percentile rolls) to most die rolls. This includes saving throws, initiative, surprise, proficiency checks, thief skill checks, ability checks, and ability sub-checks (e.g., bend bars/lift gates, resurrection survival, and so on). The fool’s luck also adds a +1 bonus to the Jester’s Armor Class.
| |
| − | * About the only die rolls that the fool’s luck ability doesn’t affect are attack rolls, damage rolls, initial character generation rolls, and Hit Die rolls.
| |
| − | * Jesters enjoy a +1 bonus to Charisma when they are working an audience.
| |
| − | * A Jester’s Mind: Jesters are immune to attacks that cause insanity. Jesters also gain a saving throw bonus equal to their level vs. wizard spells of the enchantment/charm school and priest spells of the charm sphere. (A saving throw of 1 always fails, however.) Furthermore, any attempt to read a Jester’s mind has a percentage chance equal to the Jester’s level of causing confusion in the mind reader (treat as if under the effect of a confusion spell).
| |

| − | ===Traits===
| |
| − | * Precise Memory – With a minimal amount of studying, any object may be memorized perfectly. If the reading/writing proficiency is possessed, written material may also be memorized.
| |
| − | * Music/Singing – +2 bonus to singing proficiency checks.
| |
| − | * Obscure Knowledge – Successful Intelligence/Knowledge check allows the recollection of a fact pertaining to the current subject.

| − | *Pipes of Sounding: When played by a character proficient in music, these pipes can be used to create a variety of sounds. To a listener the source of the sound will seem to be anywhere within 60 feet of the piper. The possible sounds that can be created are: wind blowing, laughter, whistling, bird calls, moaning, footsteps, crying, mumbled voices, screams, running water, or creaking. (Note: The DM can rule that other similar sounds are possible.)
