S&W Appreciation: Rogues In The Gallery

Swords & Wizardry White BoxWherein your humble scribe presents a batch of characters for Swords & Wizardry Whitebox in honor of Swords & Wizardry Appreciation Day. You should have no trouble using these for any of the other flavors of S&W, though.

The party failed to run when they should have. Somebody just walked up and asked to join your public game. You need an NPC to befriend (or bedevil) your party. Whatever the reason, you need a character and your need it now.

Well have no fear, amigos. Strange Stones has made its name producing pre-made “rogues gallery” style characters for ye olde school and, just for you, here’s a passel you can pick from for your S&W game.

While You’re Here Looking At S&W Stuff…

Be sure to take a gander at the monsters I’ve put together for S&W as well. Although they’re not officially part of S&W Appreciation Day, you might just find something useful. These are ones I didn’t submit for the S&W Monster Book (now known as Monstrosities, apparently) back in the day.

Traveller: Pedro’s Angels

Wherein your humble scribe presents a group of characters for (classic) Traveller. All of these were rolled up by-the-book using Book 1: Characters And Combat and/or Supplement 4: Citizens of the Imperium.

Jaunting about the sector aboard his private yacht, El Alma y La Cruz, Baron Pedro Miguel Ramirez and his lovely companions (mís ángeles, he calls them wryly) take on missions and causes that otherwise might go unaided. The Baron feels that he and his friends are destined to help those who cannot otherwise help themselves. This sometimes puts the gang on the wrong side of the law, of course – especially when the law itself is the problem. But there’s something to be said for having strong ties to the Imperial family.

BRP Rogues Gallery: Danger Divers!

Wherein your humble scribe presents a quartet of NPCs for BRP.

Black Monster © Ledo Design - Click it, the guy's work is awesome!

Traveling the world aboard the Bergion, Captain Jack Brody and his crew search for treasure beneath the waves. They have recently taken on an expedition lead by the well-known French oceanographer Marcel Lemieux, who is accompanied by his journalist daughter. Danger awaits these bold adventurers as they seek… The Sunken City of Ys.

BRP Rogues Gallery: Cyborg Bounty Hunters

Wherein your humble scribe presents a cyborg bounty hunter duo for some crazy 60s/70s style sci fi setting for BRP that doesn’t exist. I used the Super Powers rules from the Big Gold Book to build out the cybernetic enhancements, with a Character Point Budget equal to the characters’ highest unmodified characteristic (e.g., Heroic power level).

Traveling the backwaters of the Trobane Conferdate aboard the Paranotoreas, HARC-7 and 3V3 work together to round up escapees from the penal colonies. Their methods aren’t exactly orthodox – but they get the job done – so the Confederate’s enforcers tend to overlook the occasional shattered bone or plasma burn on the recaptured criminals. There are some within the establishment, though, who are more than a little concerned with the fact that neither bounty hunter appears in the official records of the Grand Census. It’s probably only a matter of time before the hunters become the hunted.

BRP Rogues Gallery: The Daughters of Daelwyn

Wherein your humble scribe presents a trio of characters for a completely non-existent sci fi setting for Basic RolePlaying.

Daelwyn L’Orreaux was the beautiful and gifted daughter of noted Ionian geneticist Dr. Hyrum L’Orreaux. She was murdered by jackbooted thugs in service to the Jovian Protectorate’s Minister of Defense, Evairyx Schim, in an attempt to force Dr. L’Orreaux to develop genetic supermen to lead the Protectorate’s warmachine. Daelwyn’s death drove her father to flee his native Io and take refuge amongst the free peoples of the Saturnian Association. There, in a private research facility well-hidden within Saturn’s ring system, Dr. L’Orreaux has created a trio of clones of his daughter to be trained as assassins to exact his revenge against the entire leadership of the Jovian Protectorate. Though these clones are near-perfect replicas of the original Daelwyn, each has manifested a slightly different personality, affinities, and set of psychic powers. Despite being well aware of their true nature, each considers herself a daughter of the original Daelwyn and the other two, thus, her sisters. They are fanatically dedicated to their father and his vision of vengeance.

Elric! Rogues Gallery

Wherein your humble scribe, in honor of the upcoming new Magic World RPG, produces a couple of characters using the Elric! iteration of BRP.

Sayle, Fast-Talking Mercenary, Age 26
Law 3 Balance 0 Chaos 0
Goateed, generous, and garrulous, Sayle travels the Young Kingdoms as a sword for hire, with only a lock of his mother’s hair worn in a small leather pouch about his neck as a reminder of his youthful days in distant Argimiliar.

Vanaya, Resourceful Escaped Slave, Age 26

Her long, raven hair loose to hide the Jharkorian slave brand on back of neck, Vanaya wears her dead sister’s boots. She never speaks of her childhood, and has vowed one day to master all the magic she can to make her vengeance upon her family’s tormenters both dark and complete.

TFT Rogues Gallery

Wherein your humble scribe presents a trio of beginning adventurers for that most wonderful of early RPGs, The Fantasy Trip. As I’ve mentioned before, TFT is the game I played most (by a wide margin) back in the day. When the rest of you lot were busy taking your paladins and assassins against the giants or slavers (or whatever) in Greyhawk, the group I played with was busy running our heroes and wizards through our own adventures in homebrewed worlds like Erelandé, Greymere, and Trith. That doesn’t make me better than anyone, but it does make me very different than a lot of folks I’ve encountered in the OSR/geek blogging scene. There are a couple of retroclones of TFT out there (Legends of the Ancient World is the only one I’ve actually looked at), though, so I know I’m not completely alone.

Gathered together in the city of Lyros, the members of this trio of rogues have just finished up a month’s worth of work at the jobs they do when not questing for treasure. Joran’s employer docked him a week’s pay for an “incident” with another caravan guard, but nothing else serious befell anyone. What strange adventures might these three have in the coming days? Whatever trouble they get into will surely be played out on the hex grid of life (because people can move in more than four directions).

Joran of Rask (Human Hero)
Personality: Loud, friendly, and honest to a fault
Job: Mercenary Recruit Pay: $75 Risk: 5/16 Silver: $225

Future*World Rogues Gallery

Wherein your humble scribe presents an adventuring party for Future*World (which is a lot like Travller, but with a gate system instead of starships), from the Worlds of Wonder boxed set. This is BRP at its most basic, but that just makes it more enjoyable, if you ask me. These four adventurers were created completely by-the-book. If I were to run something using this iteration of the BRP rules I’d definitely want to tweak a few things, but on the whole I think the “original” BRP + Worlds of Wonder is downright awesomely playable as-is.

After a couple of years on the wrong side of the law (and a couple of very nice scores), Shavistine Ryn went straight and wound up serving the Empire well. But now that her tours are over, she’s considering a little backsliding for fun and profit in the Frontier worlds. With her lover Kannix, their bear-like Rumahl bodyguard Burrul, and the aimless ex-military robot Nate Jones along for the ride, who knows what kind of trouble (and profit) she’ll stir up?

Magic World Rogues Gallery

Wherein your humble scribe presents an adventuring party for Magic World, from the Worlds of Wonder boxed set. This is BRP at its most basic, but that just makes it more enjoyable if you ask me. These four adventurers were created completely by-the-book. If I were to run something using this iteration of the BRP rules I’d definitely want to tweak a few things (like adding in the Dodge skill), but on the whole I think the “original” BRP + Worlds of Wonder is downright awesomely playable as-is.

Setting out from the village of Barnswallow Bend in the Duchy of Thraesborn, this curious group of travelers are headed to the Duke’s palace in Cardoun to ask for assistance in the fight against the raiding armies of Prince Harwyck of Fennais. The journey is long and perilous, as the road to the capital runs straight through both the Troll Hills and the Lost Forrest. But with the strong arm of Dolphinia, the stealthy blade of Shyle, the wits of Velturn, and the arcane power of Ordomox the Flame Wizard, the group has a fighting chance to reach their destination. Whether they can convince the crown to send help, though, is an altogether different matter.
