[TMNT] Level 1 character with STR: 27

[jaymz]

Looks right to me.

[Rali]

Perfectly legit in any Palladium game.

yep up to a ps of 40. ofcourse this depends on the gm. i only allow that ps for certain species and size levels

Ditto on the last part. If you're Size 3 I wouldn't allow your character to go above STR 18 no matter how many martial arts or physical skills you take.

"Our GM pretty much ignores that rule.

...so a super strong hamster character is possible... that would be funny"



Funny haha or funny ridiculous?

both

Hamsters are pretty strong for how big they are, next time you see a hamster watch it for a while, it'll probably climbs it's cage and put out a few dozen chin ups, I've seen it. plus I've seen a hamster push a text book off the top of it's cage to escape, tricky.

I was rolling up a TMNT character yesterday. By the end of the process the character had a 27 for STR. I wanted to know if this was possible. Here's all the info on what I rolled, type of animal, skills, hand to hand, and size:

Original Roll: 16 + 5 (1d6) = 20
Lion: Size 9, Accidental mutation, Adopted by mentor
So I assigned that 20 to str. Then I added a +3 to it because of its size. Then I added +2 from Wrestling which was under the Hand to Hand Combat: Ninjitsu (which I got because of the mentor). Under the Hand to Hand it said a character using this type of H2H had to choose Acrobatics and Climbing. So I added +1 from Acrobatics and +1 from Climbing. Coming up with a total of 27. Did I do something wrong? Im going to ask the GM at some point tomorrow, but I wanted to clarify it here as well.


PS: Im running this off of the original un-revised TMNT core book.

Yes, you did something wrong. 16+5 = 21, not 20 so your total strength is 28.

But other than that, legit and in the normal range (though approaching the top).
