Weird Character Combinations
« on: October 05, 2010, 07:17:21 PM »
What's the oddest group of characters you've ever seen in a DF game?

In the game I'm in, we have a con-man/gambler who has learnt thaumaturgy; a fake psychic whose "pretend powers" actually do exist; a dodgy dealer of a male sylph changeling from Morocco or Tunisia (who is confused because every other sylph seems to be female); and...   a Second World War naval captain who was lost in battle in the middle of the war and found himself on a beach in the 21st century, who has no powers but may be haunted by his crew.

Got anything weirder?

RIVER SONG: What thing?
THE DOCTOR: I don't know. It's a thing in progress. Respect the thing!

Well, the Dragon and Golem dropped out, and the Illusionist is a thief, but yeah. I'm the Witcher!

A bartender/bar owner who 'inherited' a bar which is Accorded Neutral Grounds and has a Genus Loci; a were-jaguar who's the failed Emissary of Tezcatlipoc (and attacks Red Court vampires and servants on sight/smell); a street performer with a magic guitar; and the best cat burglar in the city.
You're the spirit of a nation, all right.  But it's NOT America.

A hacker for the Supernatural community and tech support for things that dont do well around modern tech.
The sentient clockwork creation of a mad sorcerer (named Geppetto) that is a Accords negotiator.
White Court Vampire outcast and enemy of most of her family that runs bar/night club.
Monster hunter of the church, with all inhuman powers through items and bad ass magic sword, but has a soft spot for "monster willing to change and be good".
And my character, a private investigator half vampire...serious nazi's during ww2 turned him into a half black court vamp that only has supernatural powers during the night

our current line up consist of a crossroads demon, a shamanic pixie scout, and a goldsmith wizard (a crafter). we also had a witcher style character, but that player has not much time at the moment, and the player of the goldsmith tried out a few other character ideas: an einherjer monoc security specialist (with gauntlets of strength) and a shapeshifting schizophrenic detective.

one player is still missing (she's studying out of country at the moment), so i have no idea, what she will play.

We started with a smaller scale group but what we have is the following.

Practitioner /fledgling warden however his teacher is missing
Were -wolverine
Emissary of Power that is over 70 years old but looks like he is 30.  He is also a kleptomaniac.
Modern day Robin Hood that lives in the Hood.
Techno-sancemancer -  He talks to elemental spirits thru a dead phone.  Sorcerer
Last one doesn't have a class per say.  He is a Rohnin Gaijan that lives on the street.

With your laws of magic, wizards would pretty much just be helpless carebears who can only do magic tricks. - BumblingBear

The novels are actually very good, and the game keeps true to them. Only problem is that only 2 are translated so far.
