For those not use to HârnMaster, the information is presented in the following manner:

Name (Guild Rank, if any) Guild or Occupation .

ATTRIBUTES

Attributes are based on 3d6, with 9-12 being average. No stat should be over 18 for a human, but there are exceptions.

Diabolical: One who obeys laws only if convenient and never feels guild. There is no act of depravity he will not commit for personal advantage.

Unscrupulous: One who is rarely troubled by guild or influenced by right/wrong. He behaves in whatever manner suits his objectives. His ethics may be based on a principle such as "survival of the fittest".

Corruptible: A moral chameleon who probably ascribes to some kind of ethical code, but will do almost anything for pleasure or profit. The corruptible character tends to view law/authority as unreasonable constraints on his freedom, and will bend/break rules with little regard for moral consequences.

Law Abiding: One who respects law/custom and strives to maintain high moral standards, but often lapses. He will usually keep his word, try to avoid harming others, but has little difficulty committing violence in a "just" cause. He can be inspired to virtuous behavior, and suffers from guilt when he sins.

Principled: The character is reluctant to cause suffering. When he sins, he is troubled by guilt and will try to improve. Although he is honourable and dutiful, he is capable of vanity, greed and hatred

Exemplary: One who is motivated by the desire to be kind, fair and honourable, regardless of personal cost. May be prideful and hard to get along with.

Note: The above table was taken from the HârnMaster I source book, (c) Columbia Games Ltd. and N. Robin Crossby. It is produced here without their permission.
