Instead of magic you should give him something similar to Thranduil's 'Circlet of Kings'.

So maybe:
The Glory of Rohan: The King of Rohan has an inspiring presence on the battlefield. Once per game Theoden (Pellenor Fields) may cast the magical power 'Aura of Command', this power is automaticaly cast and it's effects last for the duration of the turn.
OR
The Wrath of Rohan: The mere presence of Theoden, The King of Rohan on the battlefield instills fear into the hearts of the evil minions of the eye. Once per game Theoden (Pellenor Fields) can unvail his wrath, the magical power 'Aura of Dismay' is automaticaly cast and it's effects last for the duration of the turn.

Shouldn't Theoden (Pelennor Fields) have zero Fate?

Yes, but the Age of Kings is unofficial.

Yes, I have the AoK fan made book. Those profiles are for the evil side. I wanted to (be able to) use all five wizards together.

O, you mean you use them as good prof.'s oooh. Yes, then it's good idea. But the 'Wise Fool' is... A -2 penalty is maybe to much. and Alatars: 'The Lost Palantir of Amon Sul' is maybe to powerful

I really like those Alatar and Pallando profiles!

Very good, and definitely keeping in character with the other 3 wizards, and the new spell Make Haste! is a neat idea. All around nice work, I especially like the two palantiri that you added, although for the palantir of Amon Sul I might drop either the save to 6+ or the range to 3", since it's very good at the moment. It is awfully expensive, though, so maybe it's OK.

The ability for the Palantir of Amon Sul is lifted directly from the profile for Malbeth the Seer. Malbeth costs 75 pts but also has M/W/F of 1/3/1. I have not play tested these guys yet. I'm waiting on a friend to finish his Mumak so we can play a nice 1000pt game and try stuff out.

The -2 penalty is entirely justified since the Good player would be losing 150 pts with no retribution. The conquering general ought not get a full power wizard but he should be rewarded for the task of killing a wizard. (I imagine that it would be difficult to kill one wizard, let alone these two together.) I thought about adding "your staff is broken" to the penalties that the surviving wizard should suffer as well.

My outlandish character. Also I think you guys should include small bios as well that gives a back story just like GW provides for their profiles.

Danneth, Warrior of Gondor(Man)

-F-S-D-A-W-C--M/W/F----???pts
-6-4-7-2--2--4---0-0-6

Bio
Although he appears as just a simple Gondorian soldier, Danneth is quite famous in and around his legion for being the luckiest man alive. Some even say that he is married to lady luck herself. Always Danneth finds a way to come out unscathed from the unlikeliest situation that guarantees certain death. He is also known for his fighting prowess that would rival Borimir's, but there is something more to him than his skill in combat that saves him every time.

Wargear
Danneth carries a sword and shield, and wears heavy armour.

Special Rules
Luck be a Lady: When Danneth's skill in combat fails him there is always some unlikely thing saving him from being slain. Such as the opposing warrior tripping over a rock before delivering the final blow or having his sword deflect off of Danneth's armour and hitting himself back on the head. Every time Danneth successfully saves a wound using his fate point, the enemy who inflicted the wound suffers a S1 hit.

I like the Blue Wizards profiles, I also think they should be allowed to be taken into an evil force list as well since their actual alignment is uncertain.

Thanks.
I've finished painting them up but still haven't got a chance to play they yet. :(
Not a bad idea using them as evil profiles. Do you think that they should have different spells tho? (black dart, sap will, etc.)

Giving them two different profiles based on which alignment they are would work just like Saruman. I just wouldn't do it because I would get the profiles mixed up in my head and confuse the rules that are used for evil and use them while I'm playing good.
