Based on YOU.
(you can use picrew for physical details)

(you can make minor alterations if you like)

Step 2: match your zodiac to your new race
Aquarius - Werewolf
You’re basically just a person who has a really bad case of "bed head" during the full moon. You might find yourself trying to brush your fur into a manageable style, but it's a lost cause.

Pisces - Clockwork
You’re essentially a contraption that looks like it swallowed a grandfather clock and a cuckoo bird and needs a coffee. You whir and clack, churning out questionable-looking statements like widgets with the enthusiasm of a bored marsupial.

Aries - Mini Elf
You’re a tiny elf who is constantly tripping over their own pointy shoes because they are just a tad too long for your little feet. You also have difficulty reaching things on high shelves because you’re just a li’l guy.

Taurus - Cyclops
You’re a one-eyed creature who is basically a giant toddler in need of a serious nap. You’re strong enough to throw boulders like pebbles, but you get distracted and throw them at fluffy clouds because they look like giant cotton candy.

Gemini - Sprite
You are a tiny, sparkly creature, perpetually confused about its own existence. You flit about like an over-caffeinated hummingbird, leaving a trail of glitter and bewildered squirrels in your wake.

Cancer - Goblin
You’re a creature that looks like a grumpy toddler who hasn't quite outgrown their green finger paint phase, with ears that could catch satellite signals and a nose that's seen better days (and probably smelled worse things).

Leo - Dragonborn
You’re a bit large, a bit clumsy, and sneezing might set a small house on fire. What’s great is you’re known for your strength, whether it be physical or emotional, but deep down you’d really like a hug without the other party flinching at your sharp scales.

Virgo - Werecat
While you have superhuman strength and speed, your primary instinct is knocking over water cups and scaling curtains with acrobatic prowress. For some reason, you want to bat toys around for hours, even if the world burns.

Libra - Undead
Zombie? Skeleton? Ghost? You can choose which stage you’re at. You may be bound to the graveyard, but you’re known for throwing some awesome bashes. BRAIN bashes.

Scorpio - Amphibian
You need to stay wet. All the time. You’re a tiny, squishy superhero with regrowable limbs. You can also breathe through your (sometimes) poisonous, vibrant skin. Anybody have any hydrating cream?

Sagittarius - Vampire
You are a werewolf’s natural enemy. If you could get yourself out the coffin. People call you terrifying, but really, with all this time on your hands, binging netflix is a better use of it. And raiding blood banks is easier than hunting people.

Capricorn - Silly Goose
HONK.
I’m pretty sure you were put on this earth to cause general chaos and disruption.

Step 3: match your birth month to your profession
Jan - Onion Knight
Passive: B.O. enemies keep a distance.

Feb - Puncher
Passive: Intimidate. People are a little afraid of you.
Active: Jab. It’s a quick attack.
Active: Fruit punch. You distract the enemy with delicious punch (open for interpretation).

Mar - Pastamancer
Passive: Saucy. You handle people with youngest sibling energy.
Passive: Custom Spell. You can whip up any intermediate spell, as long as it follows complicated pasta terms.
Active: Cuoppo. A simple hand gesture to show your displeasure.

Apr - Music Thief
Passive: Meow. Cats love you, and sing along with you.
Active: Napster. Yoink. That song is yours, now, thanks.
Active: Replay. You play a song you’ve heard before, with accuracy.

May - Flowermage
Passive: Decay. Wherever you tread, plants wither away behind you.
Passive: Secrets. Plants talk, but they don’t shut up.
Active: Growth. Plants grow and move at your command.

Jun - Pyrodancer
Passive: Heat. When you get upset, flames flicker, boosting your abilities.
Active: Dancy dance. You move like water, but command like fire.
Active: Flamboosh. It’s like a fireball, but fancy.

Jul - Demon Hunter
Passive: Aura. Your presence alone tells demons you’re not here to party.
Passive: Fatestring. You see how everything connects. Pretty, ghastly.
Active: Exorcise. Okay, maybe one song won’t hurt. Will them, though.

Aug - Gunslinger
Passive: Alert. You often scan for hilts, bad guys, and exit strategies.
Active: Parley. A good negotiatin’ never hurt anybody.
Active: Draw. You quickly get two shots off on the enemy.

Sep - Alchemist
Passive: Magnum Opus. Your goal is to create something to shape your life, like a Philosopher’s Stone.
Active: Transmutation. Base material turns into fancy material.
Active: Elixir. Cure disease, though 1/1,000,000 chance of immortality.

Oct - Nekomancer
Passive: Cat Hair. You’re covered in it, and it repels anyone with a sneezy.
Passive: Wild Magic. There’s a chance your foe will turn into a cat.
Active: Cat’s Meow. You can talk with cats for a short while.

Nov - Fruit Ninja
Passive: Cantouflage. You blend in easily, but always smell a little fruity.
Active: Strawbertage. Arson is a great disruptor, but you can only use fruit.
Active: Persibomb. You make a sticky getaway.

Dec - Blood Hunter
Passive: Hemocraft. Your dedication to destroying evil boils in your blood.
Passive: Hunter’s Bane. Your blood turns black, honing your abilities.
Active: Venipuncture. You pull out the enemy’s blood through the arms.


Step 4: choose a title
1. You come across the side of a mountain and see lots of lines running right and left in the rock. Do you…
A. Chip away carefully at the rock to find things. (Page 2)
B. Blow it up for a new path. (Page 3)
C. Move on with your life. (Page 4)

2. Archeologist (+1 wis, +1 perc)
You enjoy figuring things out and taking your time with it. You also enjoy slapping your name on things you may (or may not) have discovered and getting the glory for it. Some call you egotistical, you call them jealous.

3. Explosives Expert (+2 dex)
Big. Badda. BOOM. You enjoy watching things blow up, but you also enjoy all the intricacies of how the interconnections work inside the kablooeys. Red wire or blue? You already know the answer, but the other option is oh so tempting.

4. Down at the docks you come across a big ship. You:
A. Take over the ship. (Page 5)
B. Take on the task of escorting someone/something across the sea. (Page 6)
C. Move on with your life. (Page 7)

5. Captain (+1 char, +1 dex)
You are a leader, and you need others to follow your command for ship-shape smooth sailing. You are calculating and careful with your every move, keeping a step ahead everyone else. This makes you a challenge to keep up with, especially those close to you.

6. Warden (+1 prot, +1 str)
You’re great at listening, and while it’s been useful in helping others, you find everyone trauma dumps on you without asking how you are. You tend to carry everyone else’s burdens, as well as your own. You need a month long vacation.

7. In your travels you discover an artifact that says to deliver it somewhere.
A. Deliver it as it says. (Page cool
B. Kill the assigned targets with you and take the artifact. (Page 9)
C. Move on with your life. (Page 10)

8. Treasure Hunter
You love a good bargain. But more than that, you love things that shine and shimmer. It’s those little things in life that bring you joy: trinkets on a shelf, countless frames on a wall, goodies lining your tables. Some call it hoarding, but you call them treasures.

9. Bounty Hunter
You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take. You can bring them in warm, or you can bring them in cold, either way you are getting that bounty. Is there anything better than hearing clinking of gold against gold?

10. You are challenged in a competition under a big white tent.
A. You are confident to win and beat everyone up. (Page 11)
B. You are confident to win and outbake everyone. (Page 12)
C. You move on with your life. (Page 13)

11. Champion
You are the winner, and no one will say otherwise. That race you won at age ten by clotheslining the other kid at the finish line is still one of your most boasted about moments. You might cry if someone else gets the glory. But winning means people love you, right?

12. Cookie Master
You are the winner at making cookies, and a blue monster (and a blue eyed white haired man) would agree. Grandmas everywhere rage in jealousy. But don’t try baking bread, that blue eyed man will put you in your place, “it’s under-proved”.

13. Jack of all Trades
Look at you, the indecisive one. Fine, you get a little taste of everything but you haven’t perfected any of em. Archeologist? Sure but you break every other artifact. Explosives? Ouch. Captain? Mutiny. Warden? Lost ward. Bounty Hunter? Missed. Treasure? Lost it. Champion? Broke a leg. Cookies? Burnt. Can’t have it all, smart guy.
