I did not but I agree completely!

Something I mentioned elsewhere, if any of your players have read Elric. Elric himself is someone who specializes in rituals/thaumaturgy. Not a terribly ripe source of information but there is a little cross-over and can point to a few very specific aspects of DF.

That looks fun! I am curious how he made Blackbeard cry! 

Out of curiosity, shouldn't you have a "Catch" for Cold Iron on your changeling side and it looks like your wereform refresh cost should be -3, rather than -2.

Stone wasn't actually evil...he was condemned to Hell by a single mortal sin. (What's more, it's a justifiable, moral cause in the eyes of some, and removed someone who was actually evil...but it was still enough to condemn him, no matter who's right or wrong on the issue.)

 So, no.

And you get a brownie for knowing that show existed, let alone being a fan. Two brownies if you're a fan of Profit as well.

1.) Brimstone was amazing. I actually hadn't heard of Profit, though. Thanks! You just gave me something to do at work tonight instead of working!

2.) That was kinda my point about Stone. Not all characters who have some kind of evil sponsor or have a somewhat dark history fall easily into the "evil but not" category. Sometimes, people are just plain unlucky.

I have a character idea based on the character of Ezekiel "Zeke" Stone from the Brimstone series. A little more magic, a little less guns, but then, I've always had a huge crush on magic  . Would you say this falls into the category of "evil but not really?"

Can you explain a little further about what you mean with these categories? For example: Drizzt and Angel are two VERY different characters. They both have a "tortured history" (ASPECT!) but they manifest differently. Drizzt is a truly good individual who is trying to fight back against the stigma placed on him based on his racial identity. Angel is trying to cope with the horrible and LONG history of his own.

Also, for Lawbreaker, if this game is set to take place at the height of the Vampire-Wizard war, it might make sense for there to be more and more talents popping up that don't have the guidance to avoid breaking the Laws that they might have had with the White Council before the war broke out.

Good point. I keep forgetting about the Valkyrie issue.

On a related issue to my OP, how would you handle a (PC) non-human Emissary/Scion/Champion/Something of Lucifer tossing around power of a distinctly hellish nature but not on the level of, say, the Denarians?

Awesome! Thanks for the quick reply. I see what you mean about the spiritual consequences. I always enjoy playing characters on the...how shall we say...left-handed side of morality. Maybe a Scion or Emissary of Power could be fun.

As for outsider's handing out sponsored magic, I kind of thought that that was something Cowl and the White King (through his anti-magic resistances) had accomplished, but that may just be individual gifts or rituals. Is Faerie Magic not a sub-type of Sponsored Magic? It is listed separately on Rick Neal's page...hmm...this bears investigating.
