Mother Summer mentioned how Mother Winter had difficulties travelling anymore, ever since she had her walking stick stolen. Now, this is Mother Winter, the steel meat cleaver flinging, tooth trophy keeping, monstrous devourer who epitomizes entropy. While her motivations her great, methods can really scare a person. Not a nice person by nearly any stretch of the imagination.

But, back to the walking stick. It was stolen. She can't move around without it, so she probably wants it back. What other staff-like artifact do we know of that the owner wants back, according to WoJ? Which one fits the Ender of the Winter Court?

I'm thinking the Blackstaff is her 'walking stick'. That she hasn't reclaimed it is up for debate. Maybe she somehow doesn't know who is in possession of it, maybe she is prevented from acting with all of her stupendous power. Perhaps she is playing around with her food, waiting for the chance to get revenge on the entire White Council, or until a less desired Blackstaff (the position) comes around. McCoy could be very useful to her, perhaps.

I am curious as to what people think about a 'No Thumbs!' Power/Rebate. Not having thumbs (or similar grasping body parts) is extremely limiting in many cases. Can't pick stuff up normally (so no weapons), can't drive, can't even open a round-knobbed door! I think this should be something you get points back for. So I am suggesting a Rebate for it.

My idea is that it only applies when you can't have a grasping body part. If you have shapechanging, you don't get it, since you most likely have a form change that would suffice. If you qualify, you aren't human, so that means this rebate would not stack with Pure Mortal.
My main question is what it would give back. +1, +2? Maybe even +3?

As far as who would get it, I'd say snakes and other full-time animal forms (not including primates) are the main recipients. Others can come up with different Rebate recieving creatures.

I recently moved to the Boise area, and I am curious if there are DFRPG players here. I would like to find a real-life group to play with.

How would you stat the Master Chief, or any Spartan, for that matter? Maybe the Covanent can be stated as well.

Spartan II
-2 Inhuman Strength
-2 Inhuman Speed
-2 Inhuman Toughness
-2 Inhuman Recovery
+2 Catch (Severe Trauma)
-_ Stunts
+2 IoP (Mjolnir Armor) (Pick and choose to fit Refresh, different models had different abilities)
   -2 Supernatural Strength
   -2 Supernatural Speed
   -2 Supernatural Sense Mod (Radar)
   It Is What It Is, Armor:3 vs. All
   -4 Modified Enchanted Item for Shields, +7 Block, 3 Uses Per Scene (Approximately 3 Refinement could afford this, plus another for not having Ritual or Thaumaturgy)

Skills*: (Sumberged [35], 12 [40], 14 [45], 18 [60, at +6])
+5 Guns, Athletics
+4 Fists, Alertness
+3 Endurance, Intimidation
+2 Presence, Conviction, Discipline
+1 Stealth, Rapport, Survival, Scholarship, Driving

+5 Guns, Athletics
+4 Fists, Alertness, Endurance
+3 Stealth, Discipline, Intimidation
+2 Presence, Conviction, Driving
+1 Survival, Scholarship, Rapport

+5 Guns, Athletics, Endurance
+4 Alertness, Discipline, Fists

+6 Guns, Athletics
+5 Alertness, Fists, Endurance
+4 Discipline, Intimidation, Weapons
+3 Conviction, Presence, Intimidation

+1 Rapport, Contacts, Craftsmanship, Investigation, Empathy

*Besides Guns, Athletics, Fists, and Alertness, feel free to swap around a bit. Every Spartan was different. These examples vary a bit. Some drive, some will use Energy Swords, etc.

You could play as an unarmored Spartan for -6, although they would have a number of Stunts, so I'd say a Submerged could cover one with old armor and some Stunts.

Grunt
Refresh:
I Dunno, not much. Maybe a Suicide Stunt
Maybe -2 Inhuman Toughness, with a Catch of Headshots. The confetti popping out is a sign.
Skills:
Guns +3
Athletics +2
Alertness -1 (They suck, you catch them asleep in a warzone)
Discipline +1 (gotta give them some, a hundred of their buddies are killed in front of them, and they will still charge in some cases)

A grapple is a block against actions. Does it block Incite Emotions? All Incite Emotions needs is contact for some uses. I mean, it seems to me that Inciting wouldn't be blocked by hugs. It might even be stronger.

We've seen Thomas Incite when he is half-insane, nearly unconscious. I don't think nearly intimate physical contact would stop it.

Would a Moderator please move this? I wasn't paying attention, and put it in the wrong part of the forum. Could it go to DFRPG?

Pretty obvious question here. How would a person stat an Einherjar, besides having very high guns, fists, weapons, discipline, athletics, endurance, contacts, and resources skills? Ever-living warriors have those kinds of skills.

Possibly Inhuman Recovery (I dunno what their Catch would be), definitely some Stunts, and after that I do not know.

Seeing the Einherjar armory, you know they have weapon 3s and 4s on hand, and training on how to use them out the kazoo.
