All right, here's my character. If I got anything wrong tell me, because I don't know the system at all.
Name: Maxwell Otkis
Bio: Max is a former student of Dr. Spencer's from back when he was teaching history. A history student, Max has traveled across the world to view ancient marvels, writing short articles for historical journals to keep himself in funds. Never settling on one thing for very long before becoming distracted by something else, Max has been from China to Brazil and back again. Somewhere along the way he picked up a smattering of Egyptian Hieroglyphics before being distracted into other pursuits. He relies on a fast tongue and good health to get him wherever he wants to go.
In person, Max is a small man with fine brown hair, a thin frame and perpetually curious brown eyes. He occasionally wears a small pair of round spectacles, though he usually forgets about them.

Aaron was born into the life of a doctor. It runs in his family, his father was one, as was his fathers and further on than that. He was raised very strictly, and as such is a very well mannered yet quite individual. This has led to him being quite timid and even a pushover at times but he knows how to throw a decent hook when the time calls. He is currently enrolled at a university in MA studying to become a doctor, as to follow in his fathers footsteps.
In his free time Aaron has been known to rockclimb aswell as swim laps in the universties pool. Aaron had just gotten home from such an evening the day it happened. He returned to his home to find his father, a man of tall stature and fair faced, a man whom is all buisness and no nonsense, and a man whom had never been sick a day in his life; Reduced to a shivering mass. He was backed into the corner dribbling and babbling to himself in strange tongues madly.
The professionals stated that it was just too much stress for a man of his age and he finally crumbled under the pressure, but Aaron had a feeling that there was more too it, far more. A mere three days went by and his father died in the darkened halls of the asylum. According to reports of the other patients he began speaking in a strange language as his eyed rolled into the back of his skull before choking upon his own tongue.
All were grief stricken, but Aaron couldn't shake the feeling that there was something more at work here. Back at their manor he went through his fathers things, trying to find some sort of clue as to why this all happened, and thats when he found the letter. It was from an old family friend, Dr Hubert Spencer. Aarons father had gone on numerous buisness trips with him. The details of the letter spoke of a digsite in Egypt and apparently something big was about to be uncovered.
Normally this would take a backseat in ones mind due to the recent happenings, but for some reason this knowledge ate at Aaron. He couldn't explain it, but it was as though some unseen force was pushing Aaron to go, forcing him. Before Aaron could even finish brainstorming the details of the journey he was already on a frieghter to Cairo. He felt that he could find answers here, and see if Hubert had any knowledge of why his father would fall so far in so short a time.

Raphael attended Dr. Spencer's Ancient history class in University, and went on to major in English. However, because of his tendency to constantly read books on any and every subject he ended up becoming a librarian after graduating. During his time as a librarian he's developed a rather unhealthy obsession with the occult, which is part of the reason he and Dr. Spencer have become such good friends and keep in touch. After receiving his letter from Dr. Spencer he was dead set on traveling to Egypt to help out, as Egypt is chock full of occult history that so fascinates him.

Thanks root, I didn't even notice that discrepancy. When I re-rolled my stats Byakhee apparently didn't recalculate, or maybe I did it without noticing. Anyhow, I fixed it now and redistributed the extra points.
Looks mostly right, but I think you need a 18 or more in Education to get a degree. Not sure.7dollarbill said:
@Teafo: Credit Rating is how much cash you can get hold of in a pinch.
@Raphael : R/W English at 105? It defaults to EDUx5, so please tell me you didn't spend 25 points on it? All the rest go to default.
Alright, so is it possible for him to be a medical student without a degree yet still proficient enough in medicine to be helpful?
Not a problem at all, he can still be working towards his degree, and he can still have his Med/First aid up high.
Sorry Purp, I'll shut up if I'm back seat GM'ing.

Samuel Houston grew up in the back woods on the outskirts of San Diego, CA. While out on a camping trip, he gained an intense, and singular fascination with the heavens and decided to attend Miskatonic University where he aquired his Bachelor's Degree in Astronomy. He has since enjoyed working at an observatory near Arkham, MA.
He originally met Dr. Spencer while perusing the libraries of Miskatonic U where they hit off a conversation about stars and their changes, Dr. Spencer told Sam about the possibility of occult reasons for the stars' movements. Having witnessed many movements, and hearing the explanations from Dr. Spencer, Houston now sees the truth that something in the heavens is making the stars move in patterns, this cannot be simply coincidence.
Recently, Sam recieved a letter from his newfound friend, alluding to finding something that could explain everything. Having gathered his possessions, Sam has now landed in Egypt and is on his way to see the good professor.

Ok, sorry to keep you guys in the dark.
Everyone starts with 0 Mythos points even thoug it does go to 99. 99 basically means you know the universe. 0 means you know nothing of gods and 'unrealistic stories'.
Each point of mythos you gain, you decrease you SAN by 1 perminatly.
Sorry, I also didn't state how much Magic Points people get. They are equal to your POW.
And you don't nessissaryly have to include every skill in your profile. Just the ones you put your skills on. You have the minimum amount on the rest.
EDIT
You can backset GM if you want Root. 19 people is a big number for this and I won't be on here 24/7 so knock yourself out.

Yeah, I'll give you 5% on it. You once witnessed a giant fly in a suit talk to a doctor. You could believe what you saw and were sent to an asylum.The_root_of_all_evil said:That's a good reason.The_Toe_Bighter98 said:

Born in Boston to a rich father who taught him how to wrestle and fight along with going hunting, and he was taught basic first aid when his father was injured during one of the trips, making his proficient in rifles and pistols which he used as his primary hunting tools. His father took him on many trips to the middle east and france and he has enough knowledge of both languages to be able to ask or say nearly anything his father also made him study hieroglyphics so he is pretty good at understanding them as well. He is in Egypt to see the digs.

You have EDUx20 points in 7 core skills groups. These are your 7 core skills. The ones that rule your life and your job. There is a list of jobs specific ones you use but I'll leave it open.7dollarbill said:
Then you can add INTx10 to spread amongst the others. These ones are your hobby points and can be spent on any. I find this funny. Putting these points on Hide, means your hobby is most likely stalking people. Listen, you stand on the street and try to hear birds. It doesn't make a lot of sense but these are generally to fill in gaps that you have.
Here is my final, revised edition of my character sheet. Now, I just need to ignore my hastily done BIO...

Travis Doormen is an inspiring student, aiming to gain his degree from a prestigious College. However, after a highly publicised scandal, he ends up being expelled from said College. This event shatters Travis's highly kept world, and he begins to feel the full effects of depression and poverty. However, before he did anything drastic his phone rang. It was an old friend of Travis's, who invited him to Egypt. Accepting, Travis heads to Egypt where the story begins...
