Pick a Race
Only one race per character, please. Well, two, technically, if you're playing a half-elf or half-orc.
The common races are listed below. If you want to play something different, run it by your game
master for approval. Default is human.
Pick a Class
You can technically have as many classes as you want, if you can work them into your character's
clichs. If you don't want the can to get too silly, the game master should limit players to one class
per clich. This will avoid the inevitable Assassin-Barbarian-Bard-Cleric-Fighter-Paladin-Ranger-
Thief-Wizard 6 and goofy stuff like that. That's the sort of min-maxing that makes other games
kind of annoying and drove us to Risus in the first place, right? Single-class clichs will give you
characters like Human Barbarian from the Simolian Wastes 3, Mercenary Fighter in the Company
of Istulstan the Red 2, Ranger of the Picayune Wilds 2, Thief of the City-State of Zyngarf 3,
reflecting all of the things the character has done in their life up to this moment.
If you insist on having multiple classes within a single clich it should be limited to two, maybe
three if your game master is incredibly lenient, and that should be the only clich with a class in it.
So if you really want Gnome Bard/Assassin 4, the other clichs should expand on other character
traits.
Pick an Attribute
Unlike the classic game of killing things and taking their stuff, you don't have to account for every
Attribute in Domnio, just the one's you're good at. Even then, it's going to be assumed that a
character is good with certain attributes based on Race and Class. Dwarves are assumed to be tough,
and thus having a good Constitution. Paladins have a lot of Charisma, Thieves have better-than-
average Dexterity, and so on. If you put down Strong Fighter or Wise Cleric, it's redundant.
Better to add an Attribute clich that's off the path for the class or race (Strong Halfling) or givie
it a different rating than the class or race (Barbarian 3, Strong 4)
