Hey

I just got the game, and for my first run through i want to make a character based on Balthier of Final Fantasy XII; the games blend of magic, tech/guns and such gave me the urge to buy the game to play through with this idea.

Still, just having got the game and not exacly being good with file-editting, i'm having trouble making a custom Portraits and Backgrounds.

For the Portrait i am cropping this image; so just his head, upperchest and most of his gun are visible. [url="http://i146.photobucket.com/albums/r242/Lindzeh/FFXII/Balthier/Balthier.jpg"]http://i146.photobucket.com/albums/r242/Lindzeh/FFXII/Balthier/Balthier.jpg[/url]

For the background, i've gotten...

Spoiler

Sky Pirate: A young man running away from his past with the dream of exploring the skies, to do as he wants when he wishes, and get rich in the process; he became a Sky Pirate. Only, he is a "Sky" Pirate without a ship, something he works tirelessly to fix with little success. Liberating a ticket for the maiden voyage of the IFS Zephyr from a foolish noble, the witty "Leading man" decides to take a break from his Airship hunting to simply relax...

But i need advice for his stats. Obviously he needs to start with a Rifle of some sort, since its his trademark weapon (and some bullets). Firearm skill + of course, maybe 10/15? Charisma is a must since Balthier is so sarcastic and witty. A small bonus in Appearence since he is the "handsome" style of Pirate. Other than that i'm not sure.

Advice?

Thanks for the advice guys, really helped me out



His stat boosts might be a little high (most histories seem to be a little more subtle) but since i have never played through the game before, i'd rather have stats that are a little too high but are like the character, rather than stats that are too low and make me feel like he isnt true to character.

I think i'll take him for a spin

Lol, I like the idea, but don't you think that you've made him a bit too powerful for a first level character?

that's the stats of my level40 char, lul
