Ok, so my character doesn't actually suck. But I feel like I'm really not getting the best out of pledges. Here's my character so far: http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaigns/metropolis-city/characters/silas-wrathstrike Note that his stamina is now a 3.
I know that he's actually one of the most combat-effective PCs in the current game, but I feel like he could be so much better (both in and out-of-combat). His Freehold pledge just says he'll defend the freehold no matter what and doesn't really give him any actual benefits, I think Resources 1 or something. His Motley Pledge is really effective, lots of bonuses, but our ST made us take it with 2 NPCs which we didn't really want to and we're 100% certain that she's going to make us eventually break the pledge when they turn out to be enemies. And we were forced to make a pledge to work at and defend a bar that another Changeling owns in exchange for.... free lodging.
That means I can still make 3 more pledges without suffering any penalties.
HELP ME.
Either examples of pledges you've made, or things that would be generally helpful to me or specifically helpful. This is the first time I've ever played Changeling, and not super-familiar with nWoD in general.
