I can't look at it through my phone but will be happy to double check the numbers on thursday. I will also make sure we get a look at the background before that. Look forward to meeting you both.

You're at 138 by my count which is 8 over unless you're going to take a Hubris in which case you'll have 2 extra points. Looks real good so far, I'm just worried Altamira's gonna be overrun with Vestenmannjavnjar :D

See you thurs.

Actually, he is at 144 (assuming you math is right). You missed the advanced knack cost for bear hug. I would advise taking a hubris and dropping an advanced knack from the merchant and sailor skills (haggle or appraise and pilot or navigate) to get back 6 points. That would put you at 2 remaining points to re-spend. I would consider an increase to footwork 3 and raising the bow or axe attack.

Actually, I'm not sure where Mark got that last 10 HP for the languages, so check your Totals Mark.

Sal: I agree regarding the advanced Knacks and increasing Footwork.

Both Sal and Mike are right. I edited the points count to reflect that.

Adding on, read your background and I must say I'm excited by the prospect of intertwining two backgrounds. This ought to be a lot of fun...
