So, one of the players for a halloween game I am going to be running soon wants to make a character.
The downside is that they have no idea how to make a character.
And I don't want to spend the session time helping them/making it for them.
And they are not going to get the initiative to figure out how to make it on their own, and then go to make it.
So I am stuck making the character myself (I know it is easier to teach them, but we will be doing a high level, ECL 10+, game for this (its a one shot) and I don't want to bother teaching them the buckets of crap that is D&D character generation, especially at higher levels)
They do know how to play already, so high level play will not be an issue.
So, any suggestions for a trickster-esque character? I have no more guidelines than that, but will post them as I get them.
Preferably ideas for ECL 10-15, and it has to be Halloweeney (whether spookey or whatever)
Party is going to be the trickster, a fear/dream based wizard, and maybe someone else.
Thanks in advance,
Kreen
EDIT: Turns out that they want a poltergeist types character; one who lives for the reaction, but doesn't think about the consequences. Asides from a straight up ghost, any ideas?
