[QUOTE="airwalkrr, post: 5698250, member: 12460"] Well I know absolutely nothing about the system, but if the Watcher is available as a player character, then I am willing to learn. Giles was always my favorite character on that show, although I think my Watcher would be a much different character in at least a few ways. So far I am thinking about a Watcher who has embraced modern technology in a way few Watchers have. He is internet savvy and keeps copies of many of his most important books on his laptop. He has a physical library as well, but rarely consults it. That might be a weakness on his part; because only a fraction of the most important tomes have been converted to digital format to date and he relies on technology, he is reticent to go back to the old way of doing things. Rees Dafydd is British (of course) with a Welsh accent, having been born and raised in Caernarfon. He attended Oxford University for his undergraduate studies with a major in Computer Science (Programming) and a minor in The Occult. He completed a Doctorate in Programming Language Design at the University of Ontario Institute of Technology then earned a Master's in Renaissance Studies at Victoria University and a Doctorate in Medieval Studies at the University of Toronto all while performing post-graduate studies in computer programming. He accomplished all of this by the age of 26, then moved back to Great Britain for a short period of time, ostensibly to serve as a professor in an English college, but actually received training as a Watcher. He had been called before attending Oxford and part of doing his graduate and post-graduate studies in Ontario was to prepare him for being a Watcher there. He has recently returned to Ontario to be assigned to a new slayer, or to be assigned to replace a former Watcher (whichever is more convenient). The Watcher's Council has never been fond of the fact that he has been so interested in technology, but they have begun to begrudgingly accept that in order to effectively combat the supernatural dangers in the world they are going to have to adapt. I'll have to figure out how all this translates into character stats later. [/QUOTE]
