While not much have happened here in this forum for a while, the mod is very much alive and the workroom is full of ideas and questions.

Among the things we have decided is the final stats (with BobTokyo's comments afterwards):

STR: 12 (Young athletic fighter, used to street brawls, couldn't cope with running around in heavy armor).
DEX: 18 (Impressive, as good as a human can be)
CON: 13 (Young, healthy, tough, but not quite good enough for a HP boost)
INT: 15 (Smart, well educated, could have made a decent Mage)
WIS: 7 ("Watch me juggle flaming knives!")
CHA: 18 (Women want him, and men want to be him)

Another thing we have decided is to give him a custom theif-kit, called the Bravo. This is for many diffrent reasons. Firstly, we felt that the Bravo fitted his personality and fighting skills better than a Swashbuckler. Secondly, it gives us larger possibilities to customize him as we want to. Thirdly, it gives us excellent dialogue and personal development possibilities. A detailed description of the kit is coming soon. Note that this will not be a kit choosable by the PC.

One of the effects of the kit is that Khadion's scimitar won't upgrade as he levels-up, like we originally planned to. This is no longer necessary, since his kit will give him the bonuses we wanted the weapon to give. Whether he'll have an own weapon at all is not decided at the moment. We'd like to have your opinions at that.

His background and personal development in the game has been refined, and become much better than my original story. This will result in some teasers coming up soon, I will publish a Khadion fanfic very soon. A new biography is being written, as well, but there is no ETA on that one.

More information coming soon...

Can you give us some details about the kit, Seb ?

At the moment, the advantages and disadvantages are undecided, but I can give you the description:

Bravo

The Bravo, also known as the Blade-slinger, is a mix of warrior and rogue. Addicted to the excitement of one-on-one combat wearing little or no armor, only those with an extraordinarily rare combination of luck and near-inhuman speed can hope to succeed as Bravos. Almost always young (Bravos rarely reach old age), the Bravo relies on reckless aggression to take out more physically powerful or skilled foes, and such is the fury of the Bravo's initial attack that he or she often succeeds. Outside of combat Bravos make their way in the world through wit and charm, often seeking wealthy patrons to direct their adventures. A Bravo that reaches middle-age tends to support himself or herself as a con-artist, duelist, or weapons instructor, until the inevitable day when a younger Bravo challenges him or her to one last fight.

It looks great. One thing is bugging me though. The name Bravo, it is a real cool kit but the name is not that fitting. Why not just call it the blade-slinger since it is also known like that?

Good job with the stats. It fits the character well.

Why isn't it fitting? I like the name a whole lot better than "Blade-singer".

Thanks!

Yep, the name fits him very well considering his personality and such things.
