Post Yourself As A DFRPG Character!

[Deadmanwalking]

Aside from skill names (Technology=Scholarship, Outdoorsman=Survival, Iron Jaw=Endurance, and Firearms=Guns) those actually look about right. 

Though you likely have other useful skills as well that you've neglected to list.

hehe, maybe a few, didn't want to list a whole bunch since I knew I was way off from the FATE skill names

[ludomaniac]

I can't be accurately represented with stats.  I'm more of a plot device or major event.  Roll badly, and I'll show up in the next scene. 

[FutureGameDesigner]

I chose not to "build" my own stunts because I'm not making a real character, and the examples served well enough for now.  Without further ado, here I am...

Character: FutureGameDesigner
Player: Me
Power Level: Feet in the Water

High Concept: Have Mortality, Will Smash; For Geekdom. (I'm not the standard geek.  I don't obsess over anything, not subject to any variety of fan-boy-ism, and I have a greater degree of speed and grace than my near-linebacker build would indicate, and I'm not afraid to use all of it when I throwdown.  But boy do I love to be a geek.)
Trouble: Hopelessly Altruistic Cynic. (I'm the worst type of cynic.  George Carlin is my prophet.  I tend think humanity in general is garbage and I often cheer for the inevitable E.L.E. asteroid to hit.  But ultimately, a quiet voice of mine in the back of my mind keeps whispering words of hope and faith, and I always end up doing what I can to try and make things better for everyone...even if I know it's logically stupid.)
Other Aspects:
Smart Like Cassandra. (Growing up, and even still now, I was a fairly smart kid.  What creeped people out though was that I seemed to know methods and information I couldn't have reasonably gained.  Generally, that's how it is, if I desperately need to know something, I simply do...for no rational reason.  Maybe its a form of eidetic memory that only functions subconsciously, but that's how it is.)
Temper, Temper mon Capitan. (In younger days I had a temper that was close to out of control.  Now its triggers have been limited and refined, until now it hardly twitches.  The most prominent triggers are instances when someone can benefit from my insight and guidance but when I try to lead them to what they need they react defensively or worse.  Then I blow up.  Not fond of reaching to help someone only to get kicked in the face.)
The Needs of the Many... (Outweigh the needs of the few, or the one.  I live by the principle that the greater good is more important than individual good.  If thousands suffer while one is spared, then what was done wasn't good at all.  If 10 men die saving one suicidal nutjob, it's a complete and utter waste and nothing more.)
Luck Favors the...aw, DAMMIT! (Bold or cautious, favored or not, luck is as random as it gets with me one might think.  At least til they notice that if I do anything I "shouldn't," I'm apparently immediately chastised accordingly by the universe at large.  Something I've learned about myself from my best friend of 17 years.)
I Wish I Were a He-man Woman-hater. (My first and only fiancee did a number on my sense of trust, and women in the years since haven't done a great deal to improve my regard of them.  But still I feel a nagging compulsion to keep looking, and a desire to come to the rescue when genuinely needed.)

[FutureGameDesigner]

Great...myself as a character killed the thread.  lol

[FutureGameDesigner]

Aw...nobody wants to play anymore.  Oh well.  lol

[Jeckel]

I was going to post mine, but your sheet made it seem so insignificant that I couldn't.

I've been working on me, but I keep changing the aspects and skills around and just can't get satisfied.. hey maybe there is a good aspect, "Indecisive Introspection"... wait, that means I have to change them again... right back in the same boat, grrrr.

[Baron Hazard]

Have a better chance of getting mine up once my pre-order shows up. ::grumble::

The skills part was harder than I thought... just have done a lot in my alloted time so far.
