Looking at Steampunk and Diesel punk art is not bad for this setting.  I would not worry about looking for Winterguard images. I doubt your character would still where the uniform. That is what I did searches for.

Do got a question though. Rhulfolk traits are fairly incomplete compared to the other races and it mentions they're a subrace so does that mean they get all the dwarf goodies and the Rhulfolk stuff?
I'll look into this after work Hexed when I can access all my books and material.  I did notice just with a quick glance that yeah, they don't list like age and some other things like they do on the two elf races so it's kind of strange.  I'll confirm what I have and let you know either here or via PM.

Still interested but been monster busy, so I might not be able to push idea to text until later tonight or tomorrow. Though it also seems like the game has a fairly healthy amount of players as well!

Ok, after further looking over the stuff, I guess that the designers got lazy on the Dwarf race and did them as a subrace for some reason.  And for some reason IK 5E has no errata, which honestly seems a bit weird even if they play tested in the kickstarter.  But based on the main book wording, minus the ability score increases, since they come from your Essence, you would get all the main Dwarf bonus from the Players Handbook along with the Rhulic Dwarf stuff tacked on.

Up to you, totally understand being busy, but I think we only have two finalized and one WIP that was posted so you have time if you want.  I know at least one interested party that still hasn't finalized stuff on their idea so you should have time if you want to submit.

Muse

Cool a Rhulic  Monk that looks like a fun character.  Yay a fellow cook!  If we get Selected we totally need to have a cook off lol!

somehow five attempts to copy/paste had parts of the stat score section vanish and everything from there down either underlined or strikethroughed even though the option wasn't highlighted and clicking that option didn't get rid of it.

hah. Cook off! Just beware she's a brewer too. Judges might not be sober enough to score who's better.


The picture is kinda funny since she's just 10 str but it is what it is.

Doesn't look too short either!

I had to play with the sheet a bit as well. Ended up adding a truckload of tables to get my OCD to stop itching.

for all it claims dwarves are short they're medium size and her height/weight just came from the chart. :D

Marie Reynolds

Well if everyone is drunk and well fed then everybody wins!

Haha, I meant the image doesn't 'look' 4'1" but that's alright. We all love a shortstack.

Gotta go edit the sheet with some character connections.

How did Dira find the Order?

I am not sure if we are going to get any more submissions, I know lost at least one potential who just can't make it.  So I'm looking at finalizing character approvals and setting up threads this week, depending how busy it is. 

Edit:  Well was hoping to at least get one more submission to even things out but it appears interest bottomed out on the idea so I think I'm just going to close it at this point and regroup on things.  Consider making it for a small, limited group in the future.

Cool, Look forward to seeing things Finalized!
