Starting in June, I intend to run a 4e campaign with some friends and guess who's tagging along? That's right, a buddy wants his girlfriend to play. She's not exactly the most enthusiastic and is probably only playing to humor her guy. She doesnt really care about the character creation process and one of us will probably end up basically designing her character for her.
Before you suggest it, I've considered keeping her out of the campaign, but decided against it. She's definately going to play, but like many of her ilk may screw with the dynamic of the group if she gets bored or frustrated.
So...what type of character should I push her into?
In old systems it was important to keep most novices away from the casters, but I no longer think that's necessary. I'm looking for a role that will make her feel like a contributor without taxing her on a tactical level. I'm also looking for a character concept that's easy to roleplay but will force her into the spotlight occasionally in non-combat situations.
Any suggestions or ideas?
