Well, here's the char sheet for a certain character I've been mulling over for awhile. Everyone is welcome to offer comments, feedback and suggestions, or just tear it to pieces.

--
name: Ur - age: 18 (48 human) - eyes: blue - hair: metallic gold - skin: pearl white - height: 7'10" - weight: 512 pounds
Ur's people are primitive by human standards, but posess a rich and complex culture, and a civilization resembling that of the ancient Aztecs. Their tribe is largely self-sufficient, and . Dance and performance hold an extremely respected rank among her society, with dancers holding authority akin to priests and historians of other races. Ur became enamored with the school of dance and song, and dedicated her life to both fields. Blessed since childhood with superior grace and agility, she progressed quickly. Upon reaching adolescence, she began to hone the martial and arcane side of her tribal skills, and soon learned to use traditional singing and dancing for the purposes of physical and psychological warfare. While she excelled at dance and song, she showed no interest in maintaining the higher social responsabilities expected of her; she was finally preassured into exile, but this only left her all the more eager to explore the outside world, with redoubled curiosity. The xenophobic nature of her race gives her little chance of returning to her people peacefully.
A carefree and mischevious sort, Urga is a Prismatic Saurian, a race similar to Draconian but with an influence from dinosaur and reptile blood rather than human. While she relishes a good fight, she prefers to talk, seduce or bedazzle a potential threat whenever possible; she is more of a finess or performance fighter. She inherits the fantastic beauty and irridescent scale-texture of her ancestors, but is often seen by more civilized races as an uninteligent half breed due to her quiet manner and difficulty with non-draconic language. Her objective in life is to learn as many dances as possible, and to explore as much of the world as she can, without being captured and sold as an exotic pet (at least, not too often).

--Equipment--
Doa Stick(x2) Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â [TSC: 4, 8, X]Â Â Â Â (AT/PA: +3/+1) (Str+1)
Doa is a plant similar to bamboo, though larger, heavier, and far more durable. Even a small section of preserved or dried Doa shoot can regrow and even flower, if planted in extremely wet soil (or even just water) and attended for a few weeks. These particular weapons have flute holes drilled into them, allowing them to functionally pass as harmless instruments outside of their culture of origin. Such weapons also make effective blowpipes, though the practice is not common.
Doa Sticks are thin enough that a thrust can inflict damage on an unarmored target, but they are primarily used to slash in a series of rapid, crushing blows. Their lightness compared to metal maces and cugels makes them especially nimble and easily manipulated, but they have insufficient shape to chop or hack.
These two flutes are Ur's only material posessions.
