Looking for a Hand to Hand skill

Unread post by Jimbo »

Hey guys, long time no be here, but I have a quick question. I am trying to compile a character creation book to help new players I am introducing. I figure it will cut down on the book passing. I found in some of my old notes a reference to a combat skill; Hand to Hand Wild. now for the life of me I can not remember which book it came out of. Am scouring the collection as we speak, but not having any luck. Would one of you guys know where i can find it? Thanks.

If it was for this game I can only think of two areas to look. The first being in the Northern Hinterlands under the barbarian section, or in one of the Rifters.

Petty tyrants thrive when they have authority backed by vague regulations.

Off hand I would say that there is not such h2h in PFRPG 2nd ed.

However, there are barbarians listed in the one of the books. There might be something there that I don't remember.

Otherwise I would suggest looking through the 1st ed books or the rifters for it, if it is PF specific h2h.
May you be blessed with the ability to change course when you are off the mark.
Each question should be give the canon answer 1st, then you can proclaim your house rules.

Not sure if it is actually PFRPG specific. have been looking over the books and just cannot find it. I thought it would be in Northern Hinterlands as well, and then Eastern Territories and Western Empire. It vexes me at this point. Guess its time to start digging into the pile o' Rifter. lol

Hey Jimbo,

you may find the RIFTER INDEX useful.

As stated, the HTH:Wild is in the article "A Walk on the Wild Side" in Rifter 40 and, as I find, very fitting for barbarian and savage characters.

You may also find the HTH:Fencing in the article "Flashing Blades - Fencing in Palladium Fantasy" in Rifter 22 useful. I love that article.

Kindest regards
Hendrik

Thanks Hendrik, I will make it point to check that one out. It may very well fit into my next campaign. I have already found the Rifter index to be quite handy. Thank you Nexusnine. :-D
