In homage to J.C.

I originally thought I would try to do a character for me but an Author was much more interesting...

Hope you are not offended, tried to add some interesting abilities that had some balance to them and a fun one at the end

as I think it is always good to have a negative ability. (No such actual ability implied. )

Had to be something to do with alignment, and a way of gaining gold to then use for later (in Middle Region).

I may have been a bit harsh on the restrictions but overpowering is a problem with a lot of characters.

It is attempted to be balanced so that one ability requires to roll under your craft and another over

to create a sort of progression. It is a crude mechanic but that fits right in with the Talisman ethos...

A pretty useful ability to be able to effectively avoid the enchantress in the city.

Sorry but don't have time to sort out a proper image so nicked one as a placeholder... Anyone out there want to have a stab?

... now how could I be offended. Although I think Barb was snickering just a little too much when she peek over my shoulder.

The following illo is highly questionable for public use, but it's the best I could find, so I fudge my rules on free art this time. Right-Click and Save/View for the full 300ppi version. Bantha, let me know if it needs any more tweaks.

Great pic.

Looking at it again, you can tell I am not an author as my English grammar is terrible.

Glad you enjoyed it. You gonna play with it ? Sadly my opportunities are somewhat limited. 2yr old and -3 months old...

Perhaps I will try to come up for a char for me as well. Who else can we do ? Mr. New ?

Mr New would need to be some sort of holy man, perhaps a Friar! Ok Jon, I know its an old joke, but must keep it going!

Right now I'm buried under deadline trying to finish up final review for a novel that must be rushed to my publisher's layout department. Perhaps in another week or two i may need a lighthearted escape into another world... other than the one Barb and I write in.

Hmmm... I would sort of see Jon as more as mild-mannered tinkerer and tactician. He's also sort of the arbitrator type, though I don't know what either would equate to in the Talisman world.

Or maybe he's more the Illuminati type... pulling the strings in the background. Oh my, he could be watching us even now.

As to you, B.F., well, I'll have to think about that a bit more.
