Are you still accepting new victims...er...recruits? I'd be interested in playing, but I may not be able to get a character whipped up until the weekend.

Okay, Dazza and taitzu, sorry you won't play. Dazza, keep checking back! Spell, you can have your character in tomorrow. Gomez, are you willing to play?
There is a difference between won't and can't ;)

I'll continue to check how things are going and maybe could join once I return? If this is a true CoC game the party should have lost a couple of party members to death or insanity within the next 3 weeks anyway ;)

Until then, have a blast guys.

Cheers

BACKGROUND: Aaron Sebloswki is the only child of a single parents. His mother escaped from her parents in California when she was only 15, and by 17 she was pregnant of Aaron. Being born in the slums isn't fun, especially if your mother has to do whatever crap job (including beating the streets) to feed you.
Aaron was never a problem child, though. He always managed to make others do the dirty and uninteresting work for him. He had the girls and the connections with the older folks as well as the imagination and curiousity to perform "interesting" tasks well. In due time, he left school to become the leader of a small gang. In the last five years, he managed to raise the criminal ladder, thanks to his charisma and to his intuitions. The recent killings in the area forced the Organisation to put somebody on the tracks of the killer, as too much attention from the autorities is the last thing that the everybody wants. Aaron, with is nice face and manners was deemed to be the right man to uncover the culprit and kill him. This will also serve as the final proof that he is ready to become one of the top bosses of the city.

PERSONALITY: Aaron, or "Red" as he likes to be called, is an ambitious young man. He thinks he is destined to great things in life. Unfortunately, despite his charming personality and wits, he is also quite lazy. Unless something is of any interest for him, he will always try to take the easiest and quickest path to solve the matter and get what he wants. Jobs are meant to be quick, fun, and well done, not long and tiring.
His personal morality seems to be designed to accomodate his whims: absolutes have no place in real world, and everything is a shade of gray. Red is sure that intelligent people will readily take all the benefits they can from random opportunities. The smartest ones will create such opportunities themselves. "Good" people do not exist, as everybody has skeletons in his closet. In those rare cases when he witnessed the behaviour really charitable people, he dismissed them as losers or madmen.
He despises stupid people, people that seem too cautious, whatever makes him lose time, and whoever seem to act illogically. He likes basketball, neat jobs, feeling in control, efficient and logical people.
If he was born in a different background, Aaron would have probably been a good actor or salesman.

Newer note: notice the cash. if you don't agree about the explanation of it, then it will be my money. As i said, I'm easy with it. Moreover, i really want to have some cash ready, should i need it, so...
as for the car, it costs slightly less than $80,000, so i should have the money... i'm not sure of the amount of my savings... :p
as i said, feel free to leave me with as much savings as you like.

Oh, Spell, which are your core skills, and also include the total modifier for your skills. BTW, just so I can know, since he is sensitive, will you get other Psychic feats, or just leave it at that?

Great! I'll get something written up and posted.

As for dice rolling, I prefer it if you do all the rolling (makes my life easier), but it isn't so critical that I can't do it.
 


Spell, also add your income, as well as any weapons, gear or equipment that your Red might have. I might suggest making him have a higher Dex and a high Reflex save instead of Will, since they're more fitting to his career. You might want to switch Con and Dex. Your character description implies that he might have a high Dex and Cha, a medium Int and Str, and a low Wis and Con. I only say low Wis and Con because he never does things himself, and instead gets others to do them, so he doesn't have to be that tough or experienced. As to XP, he has 10,001. He does have the ability score increment. And, BTW, a person of 5th level would probably be the leader of a gang (as you have already put) or a small criminal ring. He would not be sent to investigate (since he wouldn't have a boss), but would probably be questioned by the police. This could lead him to inquire more on his own, because, as you said, too much attention is never good.
