A Cultural Upbringing
While we know that Earth's many diverse cultures survived into the 24th century, the Human template for character creation is too sterile for my taste...it presupposes that all humans have more or less the same upbringing and the 5 points you get for background doesn't seem sufficient to vary the template to reflect cultural upbringings. I was wondering has anyone come up with variant templates to reflect humanity's diverse cultures. I'm working on one or two and I'll post them when I get the chance...
Arise, arise, Riders of Theoden!
Fell deed awake: fire and slaughter!
Spear shall be shaken, shields be splintered,
a sword-day, a red-day, ere the sun rises!
Ride now, ride now! Ride to Gondor!
