    Well, I'll have to admit you just described my current character, (with the exception of the alignment) which is the result of having completed the game with a male, ugly, halfling thief.

    I'd just say: Add to that recepie "Master of Persuassion".
    It will do wonders for you.

    Yeah I've tried persaution b4 and it kicks arse. So does getting your charisma to 20+ (Any1 joins you, regardless of alignment) ^_^

    Reason why I didn't include it with that dark elf is cos when you choose the background ''Dark Elf Follower'' You get extra WP with Lower CH 3:) I usually find it really hard to chose a back ground sometimes end up with not having one but i think its a good idea to have one cos it makes your character more orginal and personal. :p

    If I play a Dark Elf im not going to have an evil one, just one that hates tech. Reason why is I just can't bring myself to do evil deeds :-? :eek:

    Oh and incase you didn't know females make better makes as they gain +1 CN for -1 ST 3:)

    Try to play using the debutante or super model character backgrounds. You may find them amusing.

    When I played a female, I chose the debutante.

    If you are human,though, then I recommend the Beauty School background.

    I have become rather fond of 1/2 Orc females.

    Debutant as a diplomat, Miracle Operation as a gunslinger, Barbarian as a battlemage. Mad doctor as a, well, mad doctor.

    dont waste cp's on balanced sword, get Magnus to make them for you.

    Another fun character is the super-mage, there are 64 cp's you can get so it's possible to have 12 colleges, I've done this and its so fun. I want to raze every city in Arcanum to the ground. My character thinks "if it breathes disintergrate it, if it breathes and has an Arcane staff fireball it.

    I Killed stringy pete and all his followers with disintergrate ( I disintergrated stringy pete, stole the boat and then got mastery to kill the other skeletons.

    I disintergrated kerghan when he came as a mysterios apparationm (not really)

    My current character is kind of a tech gunslinger. He mainly focuses on using weapons, but also does explosives and gunsmithing. A fine revolver is quite worth it in Otto Krupp's mod as opposed to the quality revolver my bandit-ish arse starts with. Ammo is tough early in the game though.
