Human racial talents??
« on: January 18, 2012, 12:45:28 PM »
Hey,

I'm running a HARP Shadow World demo at the end of the month and I'm tweaking the pregens which include a few humans. Rumor has it HARP Sci-Fi redefined the human racial talents, anybody care to give the gist?

The problem with demos at cons is I tend to run 1st level games and the human talent reducing the cost of multiclassing is useless in the eyes of a player especially when they see the elf with low light vision or dwarf's dense musculature.

Thanks!

In HARP SF, Humans have the following abilities.

Bonus Skill Ranks - +5 ranks in any skills in Favored Categories
Skill Specialization - +10 bonus in any 1 skill

and 1 of the following 2 -
Profession Adaptability - reduced DP cost for changing professions (15 instead of 20)
Skill Flexibility - Treat any one skill in a Non-Favored Category, as if it was in a Favored Category (develops at 2DP instead of 4DP per rank).

Thanks Thom,

I'd like to swap out the professional adaptability for my demos.

I don't suppose ICE has considered implementing this change for the next iteration of HARP?

Nicholas has already confirmed that this option will be standard in the tweaked version of HARP.

Nice tidbit Thom...makes me more eager to at least look at the tweaked version of HARP (beyond it's usefullness in Fantasy-Sci-Fi hybrid campaigns , with HARP SF).

I can't take any credit for that, beyond participating in playtesting it.  :D
