A recent post on Dragon Age Oracle (Specializations in AGE, by Caelen O Ruairc) sparked some interesting debate and a request for more specializations. So here are, three specializations that I’ve been working on as part of an “AGE of Conan” mod that I’ve been developing. I think they are general enough for most games but I’d certainly appreciate any feedback!
Corsair
Warrior/Rogue Specialization
Whether a pirate or a privateer, on the Western Ocean or the Vilayet, as a corsair you are a master of the seas.
Class: Warrior or Rogue
Corsair Talent
Requirement: You must have a Dexterity of 2 or higher
Novice: You learn the Cunning (Seamanship) or Cunning (Navigation) focus.
Journeyman: You can understand the pirate code used by your group or in your area. Also, you can re-roll any Strength (Might) or Dexterity (Acrobatics) tests that are made on board a ship (e.g. in the rigging, when boarding another vessel etc) but must keep the results of the second roll.
Master: You can re-roll any Cunning (Seamanship) or Cunning (Navigation) tests but must keep the results of the second roll. When acting as the captain of a ship you gain +1 to all Communication (Leadership) and Cunning (Military Lore) tests.
