Who wants to take a crack at statting Jack Burton (and possibly his allies and enemies) under the DFRPG rules?
-
Jack Burton?
Is that Kurt Russel's character from Big Trouble In Little China?

Stat a mortal and chose a few stunts...done...not much of a challenge there.
His mojo later on in the game would be a good use of fate points applying the right aspects at the right time. And spending the fate points to "activate" the potion that was given to him by egg.
Choosing the right aspects is the only thing that would even remotely challenging. Seems to me that you want to have the character but not put in the work yourself.

Very nice. But I'm also looking for stunts. ;)
(There's a reason for a specific marginalia I wrote.)
Also, I'd like to see statting for Gracie Law, Wang Chi, the 3 Storms, Egg Shen, and Lo-Pan himself.
Can the DFRPG handle it? I think it can!

lol, was going to get to that but NCIS is on so no help from the spousal unit (who is the BTiLC expert).

He's actually really good with a knife, or a truck. He's just...well, not put on this Earth to get it.
He's really got good reflexes actually...though that's about all he's got going for him.
I admit to shamelessly stealing a couple of Aspects from Soulcatcher 78's version.
Other characters quite possibly following, though I might need to rewatch it (the horror, the horror).
