Fyxt RPG Character Style: Protector
In the Fyxt Role Play Game System, all characters will choose a Character Style. A character’s Style is similar to alignments in Dungeons and Dragons in the sense that it should help guide a player on how they can play their character. However, Character Style differs as it is not as limiting to role play as alignment. A player is allowed to deviate from this “overall attitude” of a character.
Players that choose a Protector Character Style should do so because their character will protect friends and allies first, even above themselves.
Protector Style characters will almost never attack an enemy first. They may seek out a solution without battle, but will rarely initiate it when it does happen. Protector Style characters will often be bound by honor or loyalty to their allies. Protector characters often look at a bigger picture than their own situation. When speaking in Dungeons and Dragons terms, a Protector Style character in Fyxt would fit under the Lawful and Good alignment for Dungeons and Dragons.
Since Protector Characters do whatever they can to protect their allies, they have naturally good Defenses themselves. Protector Style Characters will have their Character Tier added to all of their Defenses as a Build Bonus.
