Wizardry 6

Part 1: Possible party members

Well now, we can't. Because we do not have a party. We need to generate one. Here are the things. We can be

HUMANS. You know, regular people things, I guess. These seem to be the human portraits available.






Elves. Pointy eared things. I have an elf blademaster in Might and Magic X. I dunno. They are elvish.



Dwarves. Shorty, stocky, and I always imagine them with a Scottish accent. I guess they use axes or something.



Gnomes and Hobbits: Ones are tinkerers and illusionists with a fondness for Turnips in Baldur's Gate, the others are short and have hairy feet. I have no idea if I put some of the Gnome portraits in the Dwarf section but eh whatever. Hobbits also like to have 5 meals per day.


Faeries: Winged things. THey are things. Yes.


Lizardmen: Lizard folk. Scalies. Reptiloids.


Dracon: I am gonna assume it's some sort of dragon thing. Portrait looks like a bug to me though.


These may still be humans, but maybe they are the Dracon and the previous one is also a Lizardman. Not sure though.



Rawulf: Dog furrypeople.


Felpurr: Cat furrypeople


Mook: Chewbacca furrypeople



Also a portrait of a Grim Reaper can be chosen.


Any character of any race can have any portrait, as far as I know. It is funny that way.

The characters can have also a profession! Look at this list:
Fighter: They fight things. I guess they beat people to a pulp with melee weapons
Mage: They mage things. They blow up things utilizing magical powers of mighty things. Wizards, you might say
Priest: They priest things. Bah that is getting old, in any case I guess they are clerics of some deity that beat things up and use magic for other things.
Thief: They can steal things and quite likely deal with horrible traps that will murder the entire party several times over because they pay attention to the environment and or things.
Ranger: As far as I know, Wiz 6 does not take place on foresty areas, but I guess they are bow users. I guess. I am not certain.
Alchemist: They try to turn base metals into gold, as a metaphor for the improvement of oneself and the transformation of base matter into higher things. No idea.
Bard: They swill beer, and sing. Songs are important for morale you know.
Psionic: Big brains. Psychic powers!
Valkyrie: FEMALE-ONLY class. Sounds better than a regular fighter I must say.
Lord: I guess this is the male equivalent? Though it sounds less badass than the divine takers of the slain in the battlefield.
Bishop: Old religious farts of high ranking. Do they come with a funny hat? I have no idea
Samurai: I guess they are into hanzo steel
Monk: They do kung fu
Ninja: They dress in black, or alternatively, in very colored garbs.


We need six characters.
