Playing Scion: Hero as a PC for the first time. Thumbing through an abridged PDF the GM created that will allow me to build my character. I kinda have a basic idea of how the series works, and eventually we will be working our way through the series (demigod and god)... but for now I'm just making a hero. :smallcool:
Anyways... I'll probably be asking a series of questions for help on a basic character concept I wanna use: gun priest type guy. I have a massive fetish for role playing "dual handgun wielding" gunslingers, ever since I watched my first cowboy movie as a lad... modern films like Equilibrium, your various action anime, and video games like Devil May Cry or Jericho only made it worst.
Now I can literally be a god at it. :smallwink:
So here I am building my character. Gonna make Mental Traits my primary (gotta be fast and alert; max Wits), Physical Traits my secondary (gotta be slick with the guns; max Dexterity), and Social Traits my dump (cold blooded stone killa). Abilities are pretty obvious – Alertness, Marksmanship, Science (Ballistics), etc.
Now call me crazy... but I'm having a hell of time trying to figure out what deity I should go for. I mean being a gun totting "God of Death" sounds cool... but would I regret that later on? Even if that's okay – which Pantheon has a better death god?
Given that this is a game about deities, its pretty obvious I should be REALLY careful in picking my patron. Can anyone gimmie a quick pointer?
