Background
Kuublu's family had a lot of contact over the centuries since back in the time of the Selentine. For generations they formed the Mungodan cavalry that fought in an earlier age. Since then the noble titles have been passed on to successive generations. Kuublu is 17th of 49 children, the 2nd son of the 4th wife and thus has a noble title which is not recognized 5 miles from his ancestral lands. Many of his brothers and cousins are dispersed and introductions and announcements can take 10 minutes as he recites his origins. Has a perfect recollection of oral ancestries and can discuss and relate to distant cousins 5 generations apart.
We'll nix Bleu cos...well Coradia essentially doesn't exist for the purposes of this campaign.
I like the royalty idea but we'll have to nix the horses as Wagadou and the other empires have only just started opening trade with the Ta'ashim through the Desert of Songs trade routes. There will be a lot of Mungodan cavalry but its about 100 years away before big groups are fielded. You can swap out ride warhorse for another skill if you wish.
Yak skin? Lets say buffalo...cos thats a whole seperate continent.
No need for bronze weapons, if this was actual Africa they would have been making some steel and definetely iron for about 1000 years at this point.
His armour would be AF2. Because he is foregoing 3 levels of Armour that his Profession usually enjoys he can take another three skills:
As a member of nobility I would suggest:
Noble AuthorityEmpowered by the authority of their patron—be it a noble, the king or the church—He holds a privileged place in feudal society. This authority will be conveyed by form of physical document or object that affirms the PCs status. Raises the PCs perceived status by 1.
ComposureThe PC is able to maintain a composed and focused bearing under pressure, without displaying any outward signs of being flustered or disturbed. Furthermore, the PC is unaffected by Morale Checks and those of a lesser Rank accompanying the PC add +1 to their Rank when making Morale checks.
Navigator - LandWith access to an open sky the character may determine their course and approximate location to within 15 miles by rolling under their Intelligence score.
Hide shields over a wooden frame with iron fittings aren't actually all that much weaker than full wooden shields like everyone else is using. Like those it will definetely need upkeep after each battle though.
Languages: Wagandan. Normally he would be literate but I can see him as a noble son who paid more attention to physical pursuits and forgot all his lessons.
