Creating a Character

Creating your Adventurer is a quick and easy process. You don’t necessarily need to follow this specific order, but it serves as a nice outline. You will need an Adventurer Sheet to track all of your Adventurer’s information.

1. Choose your Heritage

   • Select a Heritage from the heritages section. When you choose a Heritage, you gain traits/abilities that are particular to that Heritage, as well as giving your Adventurer a starting point for their worldview. Choosing a Heritage first helps give you a sense of where your Adventurer fits in the world.

2. Choose Your Class or Gain +3 Skill Pts

   • Class Path
     • You must take the Prerequisite Traits/Abilities these count toward your 8 base traits
     • Some Classes allow you to pick a second Trait or Ability of your choice
   • Classless Path
     • You don't need a class to be powerful in LittleP6. You can use the open traits and abilities to make a very powerful character. See The Doctor
     • You must choose a class by level 6 if you don't you can never choose a class, but you can gain up to 16 base traits!
     • Also you are allowed +2 to each level on the Max Traits Table

3. You gain 2 weapon skill Points to spend on either Weapon Skills and/or Armor Skills.

4. You Gain 1 Attribute Point to spend on either your Physical Attribute Level or your Mental Attribute Level

   • You start at 1 PL and 1 ML

5. Create a backstory for your character

6. Pick A Family Trade

   • You gain +1 ADV on any Test regarding this trade

7. Set a goal

   • One sentence describing what you want to accomplish more than anything
   • Goals should be hard to obtain, but not impossible
   • Examples:
     • Avenge my family
     • Learn a really cool spell, that I saw that enemy sorcerer do
     • Find a powerful sword, from a dark tower
   • The Goal is achieved when you and the GM have decided it was achieved
   • Once you have achieved this goal gain a reward defined by the GM. Either in the form of Experience Points (typical 1 EXP), or an item, such as the really cool spell
   • After achieving a goal, set a new goal

8. Set a Belief

   • One sentence describing something that drives you to make the decisions you do
   • This SHOULD change overtime as your character grows. Typically it should happen after each session if some form of social interaction happens during a scene that discusses themselves, typically relating back to their backstory
   • See the Beliefs section the optional Rule social-combat#Social Combat. This talks about making good Beliefs

9. Optionally you can take one weakness. This allows you to start with an extra base trait
