    Default Pitch your next character concept in under 10 words

    Pretty much what the title says! Pitch some ideas you have for characters, in under 10 words! I'll start:

    "He was a great warrior, in his time."

    "All the Power of the Universe, The Wisdom of a Toddler."

    Digital Cookie to whoever recognises the popular "Hero" this is based on (if exaggerated) ;)


    "Out of his Time and (mayhap) Mind, not his wits!"

    and lastly:

    "Took it once too often, no more!"
    A neutron walks into a bar and says, “How much for a beer?” The bartender says, “For you? No charge.”

    01010100011011110010000001100010011001010010000001 10111101110010001000000110111001101111011101000010 00000111010001101111001000000110001001100101001011 100010111000101110

    Later: An atom walks into a bar an asks the bartender “Have you seen an electron? I left it in here last night.” The bartender says, “Are you sure?” The atom says, “I’m positive.”

    Guts from Berserk, with less angst, as a Halfling.
    Half elf Highwayman, jocular smiles hiding cold fury
    Fey Scion, the cool kid in the back row.
    Businessman out for revenge. A Pact with Chun the Unavoidable.
    Kobold Hamlet, inspired by Beggin' Strips. He can't read!
    Dwarf Pirate Tempest Cleric. Oy vey.

    And one from my players: Hobgoblin Musashi
    Why yes, Warlock is my solution for everything.

    Bookwise astronomer who found too much in the stars.

    Girl frequently used by friends because she's just that useful.

    Angry barman seeks vengeance for ruined life.

    The last two could probably be the same character, come to think of it...
