More Character Sheets

Another dump of old character sheets for your enjoyment.

How do you make a character sheet from a movie character?

First: Watch the movie carefully and note everything they do. They gotta have every skill and attribute they exhibit in the movie. Now, how good are they at these things? Sometimes characters in movies get lucky, sometimes they're good at what they're doing. Your call to interpret which it is.

Second: Extrapolate. If they were a cop, they need some cop skills, even if they don't show them. If they're casually good at one sport, they likely know some others. Movies give you clues about your characters' lives; use that info and work from there.

Third: Make some shit up. People are three dimensional, and two hour stories can only show you so much. I often throw in totally random skills that feel right for the character. You never know when they'll come up, and it helps to spark your players' imaginations.

What fun!
