If you want I would love to see a Shinobi Hobbit/Half-ling! If you don't want to I may write one up.

[Malancthon]

My best D&D character was a drunken gnome barbarian. A 4.5 ft greatsword never looked so intimidating than welded by a 3.5 ft crazy drunk. He was originally going to be a halfling, but the gnome traits actually went better with thr build.

[Sabersonic]

Well here's my interpretation of the Shinobi Hobbit/Half-ling. It's pretty bare bones since I'm horribly unfamiliar with the DnD setting.

Hobbit/Half-ling, Shinobi

(5 Points)
HEALTH: 20
ENDURANCE: 20
TV: 10
DX[END] - Attack

• 2[0] - “Tantō” (Accurate. Weapon)
• 3[0] - “Kodachi-style Ninjato” (Armor Piercing; Effective. Elaborate Gestures, Both Hands on Weapon; Weapon)
• 1[0] - “Shuriken-like Object” (Accurate x3; Disarming; Ranged. Activation; Elaborate Gestures; Ineffective; Weapon)
• 3[0] - “Do Crossbow” (Accurate; Armor Piercing; Effective; Impairing; Ranged. Activation; Ammunition; Elaborate Gestures, Both Hands on Weapon; Weapon)

Level - Ability

• +1 - Agile
• +3 - Art of Invisibility
• +1 - Attack (Sword)
• +2 - Combat Expert(Ninjitsu)
• +2 - Knowledge (Throwing)
• +1 - Quick

Level - Weakness

• -2 - Awkward Size (Small)
• -3 - Code of Conduct (Will Die Before Revealing Information)

And a quick question that's been bugging me for a little bit now. Since from the various interpretations of the Barrier ability, execution-wise it's less shields like this:

And more shields like this:

So would the actual physical shields be a form of Armored with flaws attached to them to signify that they're not, well, suits of armor or similar, or is it designed as something else?

[Malancthon]

Barrier can be interpreted as either physical shields or as magic/energy globes. A sword and shield warrior would have levels in Barrier.

What he said.

Also your half-ling looks good to me!

[Sabersonic]

I guess I could go with that interpretation, though the notation of it allowing a character to block an indefinite amount of damage if one had enough endurance in addition to its default DX of 1 did give me a kind of whiplash.

As for the Half-ling Shinobi, it can easily be used as a placeholder for Goblins. Heck, one could go for Goblin Kouga vs. Half-ling Iga plot hook. Though I can only assume that for Goblins, a +2 of Bizarre Appearance at the very least would be required.

[Blobathehutt]

This time we will be covering the Beholder line!

Lets start with the Beholder its self! (Thanks to Malancthon for showing me how add pics to my post!)
