So how did you guys like #FighterWeek ? Did it motivate you to think more about the game? To create more? 

Did you like the submissions? Do you think this should be done here again (with another topic of course)?

#FighterWeek  *Fighting Styles!*

These moves are supposed to be an extra move for the Fighter. In a perfect world there would be lot’s of different fighting styles but i present you 3. Each one has a general fighting style moves and then extra ones to represent further training in the style. Right now there is one for 1 Katana Sword, Spear and Shield and one for a big big hammer. There is not really a reason to match them to specific weapons but it’s an easy way to differentiate them. 

As i said every Fighter would start with 1 fighting style and can choose the other Fighting Style moves later when he levels up. Getting new styles could be done by any character like one would get into a compendium class. The Fighter could easily have a Multiclass like move that gave him access to another fighting style. He is the fighter, he can figure this stuff out. 

I didn’t had as much time as i wanted to put into these moves so please be gentle on them, they might not be as good but show the direction the move would take. 

I hope you like this. 

White Swan Style (single Sword)

When you center yourself and deflect every blow coming at you, only attacking with counterstrikes, you may Hack&Slash using WIS instead of STR.

#FighterWeek Races

Some Fighter racial moves i did already write and  completly forgot about yesterday

Half-Orc: When you roll a 10+ on Hack&Slash and you choose to deal extra Damage, deal an additional +1d4 damage

Warforged: You signature weapon is imbedded into your arm and loses 2 weight.

To disarm you, someone would have to dis-arm you.

Silurian: The warrior caste was breed to endure every battle. Take +4 Hitpoints

Kobold : When you Defy Danger by running away or fakeing weakness,, take+1 forward to the roll

And here are some by Jonathan Reiter

Oni: When you slay a living being, you may ask the GM who will grieve their death.

Statue: You can turn other animated statues as per The Cleric’s Turn Undead. Roll plus Charisma.

Tengu: You can shapeshift as per The Druid’s Shapeshifter. Roll plus Dex, and you can only become canines or birds.

Hobgoblin: Add the hold option to your Defend move, “Deal damage equal to damage received ” Whenever you take damage while Defending, it ignores armor. 

Minotaur: When you sacrifice something living to Baphomet, gain a Quest to slay someone that has sleighted you. Take two boons and a vow from The Paladin’s Quest list.

Pixie: You have a horse Companion. It is fast and calm and it is trained to travel and scout. Choose one of the weaknesses from The Ranger’s Animal Instinct list. You cannot use Command unless you can find a way to communicate with them as an equal.

Kobold: Add “Poisoned” to your options for Signature Weapon enhancements. Poisoned: Signature weapon constantly has poison applied to it. Choose one among The Thief’s Poisoner choices. Poison cannot otherwise be applied to your signature weapon.

Clockwork: You can draw on a place of power to create a magical effect on yourself. The GM will choose from The Wizard’s Ritual list to give you conditions.

#FighterWeek  Training 

Training works as an alternative for Race Moves. Just like it’s used in Inverse World or on the Mage Class. This allows you to play a Fighter of any race, while still beeing different from other Fighters. 

Military Training: You were trained in an army or other (semi)organised fighting force. Due to this you learned how to work with your comrades in battle. When you Aid an ally that is attacking an enemy, on a succesful move they take +1d4 damage forward to that attack 

Trained under a Master: You studied in one of the great schools of battle under a seasoned master of your style. Because of this you got great insight into the working of combat styles and manuveurs. When you take a moment to study someones fighting style, you can ask “What is the weakness of their style” and the GM will answer you truthfully 

Self Trained: You are a savant with the blade, a natural fighter, a child prodigy and worked it all out yourself. Because of that you got to develop a way of fighting that is truely unique to you. When you recruit hirelings, they will accept training in your style as payment. 

(that one still needs work but i wanted to present the idea)

#FighterWeek  

The shield of the lost soldier 

This shield will only accept the most patriotic and noble wielder. Once you have removed all the ice from it you find it to be incredibly light but able to deflect the strongest of blows and magic. Even more interesting are it’s flight capabilities.

When you throw it at an enemy, say how you do it. If you do it

o by bluntly hurling it, roll+STR

o by being graceful and acurate roll+DEX

o by carefully calculating it’s flight roll+INT

On a hit you deal Stun damage to an enemy and on a 10+ you choose 3, on a 7-9 you choose 1

o You hit an additional enemy (you can choose this option multiple times)

o You deal an additional 1d6 normal damage

o It returns to your hand
