  Character Creation 
   
  Like most other roleplaying games out there, in order to get in on the action, 
  you’ll need to create a character. This is easier than you might think. So go 
  print up a copy of the handy dandy character sheet located on the next page, 
  and let’s get started. 
   
  Some ground rules 
  � No two characters can share the same traits. This means that names, 
  character concepts, abilities, descriptions, whatever items they’re carrying, 
  background, etc, all need to be distinctive. Each character should be a 
  beautiful and unique snowflake.  
  � Each character must be worthy of a story. Why are they here? Make sure 
  they have something to do when it’s their turn in the spotlight. 
   
  Overview 
  1. Name: Duh. 
  2. Concept: Sum up your character in one simple phrase. Examples: Living 
  Dead Girl, Rivet-Head, Cute Robot, Exiled Alien Invader, Amateur 
  Conspiracy Theorist, Escaped Mental Patient, Hardcore Biker Dude. 
  3. Thingies: Every character has certain things they’re good at, or known 
  for. Come up anywhere from one to four abilities for your character. 
  Examples: Superhuman Strength, Won $100,000 on Jeopardy, Once 
  Killed Someone with a Spoon, Knows a Guy Who Knows a Guy, Carries a 
  Baseball Bat, Commands an Army of Adoring Fans. 
  4. Allocate 15 points among your Concept and Thingies. Each ranges from 2 
  to 5 (least relevant to most relevant). 
  5. Any unallocated points go into Oooh. 
  6. Happy-Happy: Come up with a good ending for your character. 
  7. Doom-Doom: Come up with a bad ending for your character. 
  8. Both Happy-Happy and Doom-Doom start at 0. 
  9. Come up with a background, and other stuff of interest. 
  10. If you are an accomplished artist, draw a picture of your character, or if 
  you’re a talentless worm, get someone else to do it..
