It would probably lend itself to a lot of reckless decisions by characters if they know they have a safety net and additionally ruin any creativity the players may use when approaching a situation or problem. All fate should be determined by the probability built into the dice roll. Fate points will rob the "natural 20" of all its beauty and excitement. That said, I am not opposed to using if everyone else wants to, hence the fence. Just merely sharing some thoughts on the matter.

Good point Marc. I just saw something cool and wanted to throw it out there.

Ugh! So jealous! I've had a mad craving to play, but my schedule has been so chaotic these past few months I'd be a disappointing "no show" way too often.

For now I'll have to imagine my own adventures with all these great pics Slimy's posting.

Miss gaming with you guys. Hope to find my way back when things slow down a bit.

Dethen Bolrak
Male
Dwarf
Rogue
Chaotic Good

=== PERSONA ===

Age: 162

Languages: Common, Dwarven

He is from Grundliche Hohle (upper right of the Cradle of the World). He was born into a family of poor trinket crafters. He was drafted for a war against a lesser goblin tribe, who were discovered to have hired a number of kobold mercenaries. Dethen thusly found himself having to disarm a lot of traps, carefully sneak around the tunnels and map them out, and be ready to fight at any time. The battles were very long and very vicious as Dethen became intimately familiar with stakes, pit traps, barbed wire, labyrinthine tunnels, networks of trenches, under-mountain fortresses, mechanical decapitators, and other goblin and kobold machinations.

One experience that Dethen will never forget was a battle that few remember except for him and his comrades. A new guy got caught in some barbed wire, and when he tried to pull himself out, he just kept on getting more and more tangled. Then, a goblin came over and stabbed him in the thigh, then left him there. Dethen and his team saw the whole thing happen, but they could not lift a finger or else the goblins would come down on them. The new guy cried out in pain and begged for help for a whole day, while goblins who were just on the other side of that barbed wire taunted the dwarves and brandished their long spears. Finally, Dethen decided enough was enough, and crawled through to the barbed wire line. He quietly snipped it at strategic points, while feeling hot goblin breath on his face, then crawled all the way back to his comrades and yanked on the barbed wire in order to drag the new guy along the ground. One of the goblins took notice and stabbed the poor guy in the other thigh. By the time the new guy had been retrieved, he was dying of blood loss, and there was nothing that could be done for him. This battle was ultimately unimportant as the main army decided to use a different route to attack the goblins and kobolds, and thus, all this work was for nothing.

After the war was over, Dethen found himself in need of adventure and coin. He paid for his travels by crafting trinkets and artistic items made of metal and stone. It was slow going, and although he became very experienced in the ways of the world, he still had little more than his old military gear and some extra rations.

Eventually, he met the rest of the party, and the rest is history.

He is eligible to be Doge of the local guild, serving a guild councillor directly. However, he is actually more interested in the art of fortress design, trenchworks, and trap-crafting.

Although not faithful to a specific deity within the pantheon, he is gaining respect for Corthain after seeing what Sir Samuel can do. The dwarven beliefs were not deeply ingrained into him since he is from a lower class.
