Roughneck

Guess it's a mirror of how I make the medics..

Filthy boots that clomp when you walk.

Opinions

Another character with an obvious main function and ok at a second skill set. Can be very down to earth, use few big words and cut straight to the chase. Might have strong political views that goes either way on the spectrum, and at least have a few choice words to any pencil pushers.

Again, plays itself.

Overall I think this Alien RPG group would work well enough.

Walking into the fog

This blog was made to have somewhere to put up characters for the challenge set up by TardisCaptain for january 2022, creating 31 characters for the 31 days of january. Link:  http://tardiscaptain.com/2021/11/19/2022-character-creation-challenge/  After looking at some entries into last year's challenge, it inspired me to want to create characters on paper instead of putting them on notepad or some kind of web service thingie. Sadly I can't sketch, or I would have tried to make a rough sketch of them too. I've not really been a player in game for something like 5 years now, I mostly GM. So this is going to be a bit of a change of pace.  My first thought is to make some "rival adventuring parties" for the systems I GM, and a character for systems I would like to play in games I do not GM. With the very typical backlog of games for someone who has been in the hobby since the 90s, I need to spend some time in december sorting out games and character sheets. Or I mi...

Character Creation Challenge 2024 - 9: Evren [Vampire: The Masquerade 5e]

 Second Vampire: The Masquerade 5e Character With the character I made to serve as a stand in character for someone that might show up to the Vampire campaign I am going to run this year out of the way, it's time to make some random stuff I could consider playing myself. 1. Core Concept  So one of the things I want to do going forward, is to set more and more of the quasi-real world settings in Constantinople/Istanbul and Ur. Since Vampire is a modern day game, it would be Istanbul. I have no chronicle planned and it's been a while since I read up on modern day Istanbul so I am VERY ignorant of details of what the current city is like. And as Vampire also often deals with darker things and gets all muddled up in politics muddled with the supernatural, this is not so easy to start with blind. Easy to turn to stereotypes. I am going to call the character Evren, whose Sire is Evrim. Big fan of the football club Galatasaray, and social life mostly revolving around matches and hang...
