2nd Character: Lugule DeLure, FIGHT! 2e 


 Second day of the year, second character! Or rather, second version of the first character! As mentioned previously, I'm starting the challenge by providing different version of the same character, Lugule DeLure, the Naari Pyrokineticist. Naari are the Pathfinder 2e Remaster of the Ifrit, the Pathfinder-brand version of the Fire Genasi. For those unfamiliar, Genasi are mortal in D&D that are descended or otherwise touched in some profound way by the Elemental Planes or the creature dwelling there. Most commonly, they are descended from Genie, but it doesn't have to be the case, as shown by Lugule. Back to the point, I decided to pull out my FIGHT! second edition handbook for this version of Lugule! I'm working with the assumption that we're doing some sort of Pathfinder fighting game, so I kept that in mind while assigning quality and such.

Her various move as it would appear in the booklet for the hypothetical Pathfinder Fighting Game, by Dante DX 
 

Made her a little older than the Pathfinder version, though she's a little more limited in moveset at this point. I mainly made her a little older for the qualities and liabilities, she is now married to the half-orc Hex and they have two children together. The other qualities were easy to pick, Power (Pyrokinesis) was very much needed and the various appearance related Qualities made sense for her startling looks. Occupation (Dungeon Crawler) is a better skill to represent a D&D style adventurer in this system rather than try and grab everything separately. After all, one of the example occupation in the book is Ninja!



 Fairly straightforward character to start with, I decided to give her +1 Stamina to represent her high constitution and +1 control so it's easier for her to later on combine her move sets together. As always for a Fight! character, I gave her 3 quirks for fun RP opportunities and the extra qualities it gives. By taking only 3 Quality and taking a Liability on top, I got 3 extra point to put in my combat skills. That way, I managed to max out defense and give enough Evasion to get a bonus when combining both defenses. I don't have enough move to combo yet, so my other points went into Ki. I could have kept it at 1, but I built her with the idea that she would level up at some point, so she only need 1 point more in Ki to improve her damages. For the move, she just has her Elemental Blast for offense, the melee is slightly stronger to represent her adding her strength to it in Pathfinder. At Power Level one with Ki being maxed at 3, I could have saved some points and make it a regular Special Move for the same damage for less control, but I made it Ranged so it would use Ki for Damage and grow stronger later. Her other move is Burning Jet, it's a Feat that lets you move quickly and ignore Difficult Terrain in Pathfinder, here it's re-imagined as a move that lets her move farther by briefly gaining flight, she can use it as an interrupt to quickly get away from an opponent. Here's her sheet using the excellent gsheet version for clarity.

Once again,art by Dante DX
 As always, Fight! is a lot of fun for character creation, it starts up fast and easy before having to really drill down to create some cool special moves. I recommend the Movelist sourcebook too, lots of good inspiration there! Maybe I'll use some of the stuff in there to create a random character in the system, I was pretty happy with the result last time I tried doing that!

1st Character: Lugule DeLure, Pathfinder 2e  Hello everyone, I created this blog for the Character Creation Challenge, 2026 edition! Last year, I did everything on Bluesky, but the limited post size and number of images was a bit too limiting. I don't know that I'll write a lot, but it's nice to have the option if the game gave me some thoughts I'd like to share. Anyway, last year I did 31 different characters in 31 different systems, so I decided to do something else for 2026. I already made a tentative schedule, but I may end up not sticking to it, especially if I stumble on a game during the month. So, not only do I not worry about repeating game, I even plan to create some character in multiple systems, just to see how different the result is system by system. With that said, let's move on to the first character!   Lugule DeLure, Human Naari Pyrokineticist, drawn by Dante DX So, a little bit of cheating to open up the year! Lugule here is not in fact a new chara...

4th Character: Gumei, Vagabond

 4th Character: Gumei, Vagabond 4th day and finally a new character! This time, I chose the game Vagabond by Land of the Blind, a fairly recent OSR-ish game that I managed to pick up right before Christmas! I say OSR-ish, because it says the game is fairly compatible with old school adventure and there is an emphasis on Dungeon Crawling and the like, but it does thing in a pretty unique fashion with only the players rolling dice, using clocks and allowing some character building with a Perk system, for those like me who do prefer the character creation aspect from starting with D&D 3e. The character is Gumei the alchemist, I was planning on starting her off with Pathfinder 2e, but I decided to showcase another system to start with instead! I'm also planning of creating her in a few different system, but I'm undecided if I'll do all of her in a row or if I'd rather sprinkle her various version over the month. I guess we'll see how I feel tomorrow! Good old 1 page...
