I like this. I wonder what other sets we could come up with. I fixed the image. Wouldn't it be cool to do something with a group with this mixed up backgrounds. Wonder if you could extend this to 8, 10 or 12 members and keep all of them completely different? |

I'll see what I can think up. |

This is not something that I ever paid any attention to, at least not much, but now it seems a great area of enquiry and you could use it to good effect in world building too. Take 10 different time periods, find as many cultural streams as you can for each and voila, 10 unique feel worlds. |

That is pretty wild, I think if you do something with it, you could put that into the fanzine.

Take 10 different time periods, find as many cultural streams as you can for each and voila, 10 unique feel worlds. You could start with a slice of US history for inspiration, work directly from that, and then reskin the results and generate a setting that way. Might be worth a shot. I may remember to try this. |

In 1920 Russia, you could have: - a down-and-out aristocrat (educated and skilled, but at present has few material resources, may be injured)
- a sincere (not insane) "Red" (Bolshevik) cultist, a newly-literate laborer, who has a child's faith in his new masters
- a chevalier (cavalryman of the "White Movement," the anti-Bolshevik coalition, relatively high military rank in a military with a very uncertain future
- a mother from the merchant class whose central ambition is the protection of her children
Re-skin or interpret for your campaign.

Dr Who needs mussle(actuaaly ran this, only did fair job, not my best)
The Doc himself
Bruce Lee
Lt Jonny Ricco from Starship Trooper and crew
James Bond
Batman
great idea very poor exicuton, So bad Id like to try again
all of these guys except for ricco are equiped w Dr Who level weopanry and gimics
Batman was MVP
villans are the Master and Mordru from DC comics(wizard whoo can take on Justice Leage by him self)
The good guys are attacking the bad guys base
whole concept was created right before we started playing.Deserves some love(not intrerested at this time)
