with the complete book now in our grubby little hands, i thought it would be interesting to get a Final Fantasy themed thread going. post yer monsters, jobs, spells, weapons, whatever here for a FF OVA one stop shop.

These classes are assumed that PC's get 10 dice to create an initial character, and these templates come out of that. i tried to keep them as equal to one another as i could.

Nicely done. Only issue I have and it's nothing that you could have done, is how do you model the Dark Knights reliance on being damaged to do more damage. The less health, the more damage he does, to clarify.

Also, am I to believe that you don't think that the Samurai or Ninja class should exist? (Don't care either way.)

Pretty nice, liked it.

Looks great! I always love template approaches to characters, and these look really easy to apply to any concept you might have. One note, though: Acrobat no longer exists in the final version of the game. It’s been replaced/combined with Agile.

If you wanted to model the “low HP > great damage” attribute of some appearances of the Dark Knight, you could always use the Break Ability Flaw that requires your Health to be depleted.

Great job Goose! I totally dig these! (so much that i may consider doing a final fantasy game sometime using these!)
