After Hours BTS at the Open House
Alright, so the idea struck me the other night to do some BTS2 games at the Open House. However, I don' want to do them at the Open House, rather after hours at the Ramada Inn.
Where? Either in the Palladium Freelancer Presidential Suite or we'll improvise: your hotel room, a Detroit back alley surrounded by candles, or Jason Richard's hotel room without his consent.
Of course this is not 100% definite, though I definitely would like to do this. Also, if lots of people are interested, I'll be more likely to run after hours BTS games (note that "games" is plural as in more than one).
However, I do not have the time to pre-gen player characters, so this will be B.Y.O.C. or Bring Your Own Character.
Restrictions for character creation are as follows:
* Characters should be 1-4 level of experience with no special weapons (magical or otherwise). If you start your character at first level, I suggest that you put his or her EXP at a little bit less than halfway toward second level.
* Your character should not have all encompassing government contacts. A Cop character is okay, but you will not be able to call in the NSA or FBI to help the group.
* Keep your character background fairly loose. More likely than not, the player characters will be road tripping paranormal investigators a la one of my favorite shows that will remain nameless.
* NO Ghost Hunters. Period. If you want me to explain why, I will. Though I will not change my mind on this part.
*NO NegaPsychics. These games will likely be one-shots, and thus Nega-Psychics have a good chance of ruining everyone's fun.
* Autistic Psychic Savants are okay, however, if you want to be one, bring a spare character that is not one just in case. I only ask because of the slim chance that everyone wants to be one. If people want, I could run a game where everyone is an Autistic Psychic Savant, though that will only be done upon request.
* All characters are subject to my approval. If you're scared that I might turn your character down, bring a spare, or two (or three). You might even want to bring spares just for the hell of it.
* Any other questions on character creation can be addressed by me, on this thread or through PM.
Oh, and a quick parting note: the monsters in many of the adventures that I might run, won't be found in the BTS-2 main book. They will be monsters from the annals of Fortean events, but they won't be from the main book.
Anyone interested?

No Ghost Hunters?!?!? Boo on you!
I might come up with something though.

I guess I don't have a reason to stat out Ron Caliburn yet.

Neither is Pendragon. I got him pegged @ 6th, maybe 7th level.
Created Bishop as well. Although I am not sure what to make him.
