In my mind I see a Green Arrow-esque character who has an arrow for every situation. This build, while in future CP gaining could become a damage focused character instead relies on status infliction to debilitate it’s foes rather than outright damage. While this build is intended to be a starting character of 60 CP I will include my thoughts on progression past that point. https://crestfallenlarp.com/blog/2022/10/06/pacifist-monk/ Thu, 06 Oct 2022 00:00:00 +0000 https://crestfallenlarp.com/blog/2022/10/06/pacifist-monk/ We have another thematic build that comes online with only an initial investment of 20 CP with the appropriate Skill Category unlocked but going with the theme we will be building it out as a fully fleshed in starting character. The concept we are following today is the tried-and-true pacifist monk- or if you prefer the flavor, an Oath of Redemption paladin with a few tweaks. The concept revisits the non-proficient weapon fighting concept this time as flavor, painting our character as someone who wishes to not harm other creatures despite having to defend themselves. https://crestfallenlarp.com/blog/2018/10/06/gimme-gimme/ Sat, 06 Oct 2018 00:00:00 +0000 https://crestfallenlarp.com/blog/2018/10/06/gimme-gimme/ I am back with another Busted Build (#2) this time showing some love for the non-combat crowd. We know that traditionally Orcs are terrifying fighters with massively strong arms- but didja know that they are JUST AS GOOD strongarming people as MERCHANTS?! I give you my take on a pure merchant character, “Gimme Gimme”: This build is slightly bigger than a starting character to build but if you just want to show up to game, hang with your friends, and make TONS of leaves this is the start to a very shrewd businessman. https://crestfallenlarp.com/blog/2018/10/06/the-rage-caster/ Sat, 06 Oct 2018 00:00:00 +0000 https://crestfallenlarp.com/blog/2018/10/06/the-rage-caster/ At an entry cost of just 20 CP this build is interesting, fun, and customizable. For our purposes you will need to be a Kinfolk (hence the Tasmanian devil part) and primarily be focused on Magical Combat. We first choose Specialization for our chosen flavor of elemental damage. (I choose stone for this build). We then pick up Berserk Augmentation from our Lineage Skill Category, which states that when we are affected by berserk we can spend 1 stamina yo gain +2 to our physical attacks and +5 to our spell damage.
