Character Creation

Character Benchmark

Eosin has written a great benchmarking document that lists the statistics of well known mythic characters for players to have an idea of suitable levels.

FANTASY BENCHMARKS

This list speculates about the characteristics of Greek and Arthurian heroes. The fantasy genre displays an amazing range of abilities with many characters falling well outside of the Normal Characteristic Maxima. The list is specific to fantasy characters and only hits the high points of well-known heroes, but it may give the players ideas on where they want to go (and more importantly — where they can go) with their character. Again, this is only my opinion of their abilities and it is not intended to be a strait jacket. I omitted the PRE stat because nearly all of the characters demonstrate enormous courage, even when facing sure death.
