DFRPG / Re: Ideas for a Tengu Scion?
« on: December 26, 2011, 03:18:12 PM »
After talking to a friend of mine who's a historian/mythology major, I've figured out a few appropriate weaknesses for my Tengu scion. While they apparently apply for the two separate species of Tengu Daihana  and Karasu (Long nose and Crow), I've decided to give him both catches as a matter of flavor. The first catch is Bamboo Weaponry which should be treated as cold iron and the second is Japanese Holy Items. With these being specific weaknesses I'm not sure how they  would be treated as. I've also been thinking of giving him a feeding dependency for his supernatural speed.

Would creating a shell of air around projectile weapon to increasing it's piercing and impact  be considered channeling or evocation as I've been planning to make him skilled with bows,guns and thrown objects.

Would some one be willing to stat up a Tengu for me?. I've talked with my friend who's a history/mythology major and he mentioned that their weaknesses would be Bamboo weaponry as well as Japanese holy objects.

Well I don't want to go over bored with it. How many skills and stunts is a Submerged character normally allowed to have?. would it be possible redesign him a bit so he could take the emissary of power and still be a scion?.

Would it be much of a stretch build-wise to make him an Emissary of Power to his father?. I've also been thinking of a few stunts he could go with and I'm not sure how many I'm allowed to have so feel free to correct me if I go over board as I probably don't  have enough for all these stunts. I've decided to borrow a few from the custom stunt list marked with apostrophes and I was also thinking of adding Guns(Bows) into his Great skills and as well as bump Fists up to Superb.

Stunts:
Martial Artist   
Lethal Weapons
My Body Is A Weapon
Use Their Strength Against Them*

Too Fast to Hit 
Reading the Line of Fire*
Ball Toss*

Footwork*
Quick Draw*
Iaijutsu*
Warrior Culture*
Bows Are Weapons*
Know Your Blades*
Focused Strike*
Wall of Death
My Weapons Speak For Me*
Riposte

In Even Hand Gard has an axe covered in a finite amount of runes along the blade that were capable of weakening or turning aside powerful magical attacks for a limited time though she still took a certain amount of  damage from them. Marcone has an 18th century flintlock dragoon pistol  that  shot an anti-magic/ward musket ball  which Gard said after making it she was knocked out for three weeks.

Thank you. That works perfectly for me, as I hadn't even managed to come with a name for him yet. Seeing as Tengu magic seems to revolve around Shape shifting,Aeromancy and skill enhancing possession I'd give him access to those.as well as supernatural senses

Could you stat up the Eebs and the Ik'k'uox ?. I'd also like to see a build of Gard with her axe from Even Hand as it's probably an Item of Power being able to deflect magic,as well as Marcone's anti magic musket ball. Seeing Mag's Stats would be cool as well.

Thank you for the welcome.
While wings are probably better in every way, I wanted to do a mix of both Long nosed and  Crow variations ,which could easily be explained as two different tribes who occasionally interbreed  .  Still in addition to the long nose I wanted to include  feather like hair, that would turn white when he's drawing on his supernatural speed in addition to other Tengu traits such as red skin. Something similar to the description found here: http://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-746

Possibly the ability to converse with crows and enhanced sense of smell,particularly the ability to smell blood lust or something.
 I've thought about Emissary of Power as I can see the Tengus as a supernatural mercenary force not unlike Monoc Security though slightly less modern. I'm not sure who they'd be servitors to as there's a number of supernatural beings to choose from. Also channeling is probably the best way to go about his aeromancy

 As for help, having absolutely no clue on how to create a character  for the DFRPG despite looking through the PDFs at every opportunity, I'll take you up on that if your offering,not that I want to seem lazy or anything.

I also had an idea for at least three different IoP that he could have access to,mainly focusing on Aeromancy related abilities, though I'm sure I could try and make them into enchanted items.

Thank You for the feed back. I've actually decided to not to give him wings as it just doesn't fit with my visual image of the character,thought I'll probably include a feeding dependency to boost his inhuman speed up to supernatural. He definitely has Aeromancy though I'm not sure whether to channel it through fans or a  sword as I wanted to add in a Kamaitachi reference if I made into a IoP. Also as of yet,I don't have a party to join though I'm currently looking. This was to be my character if I found one.

I'm completely new at character creation for the DFRPG,and  new to this website, though I've lurked for a while and I was hoping you fine folks could help me out.

I want to create a Tengu Scion mercenary, and though I have a rough idea for a few things such as: Inhuman Strength, Inhuman Toughness and Supernatural Speed, I've yet to form anything really concrete other than that though both Weapons and Fists will be rather high.

Considering that Tengu would be probably considered distant cousins to the Erlking's type of goblins, I'm not sure the cold iron catch would apply given the Tengu legends focus on swordsmanship.

I have a vague idea of his item of power and his enchanted items but I'd like some feedback first before I attempt to go into them.
