Title: Making my first Dresden Files character, looking for advice.
Post by: daspawnofsatan on March 30, 2017, 05:09:54 PM
So I've never played The Dresden Files game before, and I've only ever seen the TV show. (before you kill me, I have ordered the books, they should be here shortly.)

Anyway I was looking to make a character, but I wanted to know if there was any advice the community had for me.

My concept was to build a shaman, with Native American ancestry. So far, I was looking at going focused practitioner, and focusing on Elemental spells and spirits.

I've only been able to read the rule book a little bit, I plan to dig into it this weekend.

Any serious advice is welcome and appreciated.

My Friend, have presented me with a dilemma.  On the one hand, that sounds like a great way to go and a great character that has a lot of possibility, and I really do like to encourage all things Tabletop RPG, and all things Dresden. So tell me more about the sort of character you picture  :)



On the other hand, OH DEAR GOD!! Those source books will spoil so many kinds of great things from the series, it actually hurts me.  Deep down, In my Soul.   :'( :'(

I think my advice would be to put a pot of coffee on and read the series in a binge.  It's a more common occurrence than you might think.

Might be worth looking into Sponsored Magic for a concept like that.

That aside, welcome to the forum/game.

Violates the Eighth Law of Magic, isn't it?   Or is it the Ninth?   ;D
