Human Fighter: once a battle, may re-roll someone's damage roll

Bend Bars (actually, smash things)

Mage Armor - armor 1 while unarmored and unencumbered

Signature Weapon Spear 2w

  • Versatile: Close range in addition to Reach. (Though tempted to ask instead for Reach + Near (Ranged))
  • Sharp: +2 piercing (ignores 2 armor)
  • Look: Ornate. Kyouko's spear started life as a knife on a stick, but in her hands it is a blood-red, carved, and glittering tooth of death. In light it even seems to glow, though it doesn't cast any useful light in darkness.

Alignment: Good or Neutral [still waffling]

Gear

  • spear 2w
  • 5 rations 1w
  • Adventuring gear 1w
  • 2 healing potions 0w
  • antitoxin 0w, rations 1w, poultices 1w (Kyouko has no armor or money, but is almost as eager to stockpile food and medicines as she is to eat the food.)

Total 6w

Bonds: later. I might want to use other classes', or make one up.

Story

Kyouko's father was a preacher of an obscure Christian-like religion, teaching charity and nonviolence in a world of hardship. She admired his faith and dedication, until a dungeon erupted from the church or graveyard -- hard to tell, after the fact -- and killed most of the large village. She'd been out gathering in the forest, and got to club the zombie-doll of her mother when she returned.

It was probably foolish of her to eat the cake labeled "Eat Me" that she found just inside a dungeon entrance, but she did, and she was infused with unearthly strength and power. Making a spear out of a long stick and a knife, she left to seek her fortune, or at least survival. Not nearly as old, worldly, or experienced as she pretends to be, she's driven by desires for revenge on dungeons, the excitement of beating stuff up, and of course, food. Openly, she disdains notions of fairness and justice as foolish and weak, ripe for betrayal, but her instincts may betray her in turn.

Discussion

I wasn't thrilled by the Int focus of the Duelist, so I'm thinking Fighter but with as much magical skin as I can slip in. E.g. having 16 Strength while being the size of an average 14yo Japanese girl.

World addition: dominant local religion is not like Christianity. Dungeons can wipe out and absorb villages from below or within. Dungeons can be like Alice in Wonderland with zombie things, including permanent transformation treasures. (Perhaps very rare.)

Alternatively we could go with a mysterious black and white moon-rabbit thing granting her power, rather than magic cake. I have no settled preference at this time.
