Wierd Character Ideas

<< < (12/12)

vonpenguin:
I’ve been toying with the idea of the Jersey Devil as a wyldfae. So if I can sucker someone else into running the game I think I’ll go with a changeling descended from it. He’d have the potential for wings, claws, mythic toughness, inhuman strength, and possibly minor glamours or speed. Personality wise he’d be repulsively true to his word even for a fae, angsty about his increasing inhumanity but unwilling to make the Choice because he thinks of himself as a real life superhero, and incredibly stubborn.

Character has contacts in the law enforcement/spy community, but sometimes has to do them a favor to get what he wants.  On the other hand, he can get free meals when he meets his contacts if he has information they are interested in.

Love it, but man the line is: "You know spies, bunch of b%*^#$y little girls"

Nothing but the best for the patron saint of Badass in B-Movies.

Xian:
The character I've been wanting to make is an ex-Knight of the Cross. In my game-universe this is the guy who had Esperacchius before Sanya did. The basic idea for the character is that he comes across a Denarian, bests him in combat, but is forced to let the Denarian off on mercy in exchange for a piece of silver (if you catch my drift). The Now-Powerless Denarian then breaks into the Knight's house, kills the Knight's lover/partner guy, and ransacks the place looking for the coin (to no avail).

Long story short, the Knight loses his faith because it allows injustice like the one mentioned above to run rampant, so he gives up the whole "nice-guy" way of living, hunts down the Denarian, and uses the Sword of Hope in a act of revenge/despair (I.E. kills the Denarian in cold-blood.) Bada-bing bada-boom, the sword is zapped out of his hands like Harry in Grave Peril, and the Knight just leaves it with the body. Somehow the Sword is reclaimed and handed up the lines until the Angel Michael gives it to Sanya, but that's not important to the character.

I haven't got many of the aspects down yet. Maybe something like "Oh, how the Almighty have fallen." or "He had it coming."

I dunno. Just an idea.

An amazing idea! I really love it!

As for aspects perhaps "Where is God now?". Its an abbreviation of a quote from Elie Wiesel. I think it quite appropriate in the circumstance.

Deadmanwalking:
Yeah, that idea is just made of win. Another possible Aspect might be "All Hope Is Lost." or "I Was Once A Righteous Man." A potentially extremely bitter and depressed character, but assuming he's still fighting evil, still a hero for all that. Doing him as a Pure Mortal with some Conviction, Weapons, and perhaps Endurance or Intimidation stunts would be alot of fun, but so would, say, making him the new Winter Knight.
