I just added the character concepts for the 12 pregenerated characters that we will be starring in Red Dawn at Canyonside to the
HiBRiD Role Playing Engine facebook page. For those eschewing facebook due to privacy concerns, here they are:
Al “Ka Boom” Minh Leong
An Asian-American stuntman who is fed up with being the nameless bad guys' henchman in movies and instead wants to quietly prove he can kick ass like the best of them .
Russel Snake “Jack” Burton
An everyday guy who is just experiencing some extraordinary things and just wants to get home, drink a beer, eat a hoagie, and drive his truck with a life of freedom on the open road with the occasional hook up with a hot chick for some short term lovin' on a Saturday night or a short period of time
Matrix “Dutch” Hauser-Richards
A highly trained and skilled commando with a strong sense of honor who just wants to do the right thing in the field & to hell with the rest of a military/CIA complex that has double crossed him times too numerous to count
Johnny “Jake the Crow” Murata
A philosphy student who grew up in Hong Kong then moved to America to study philosophy; who believes in only using violence to set the wrong things right; who takes pride in his skills and wants to live up to the reputation of martial expertise that was the legacy of his father before him.
John “Bruno” McHallenback
A wise-cracking, no-nonsense, harmonica playing ex-cop who has lost his wife and kids and will do whatever it takes to save her or them
Scott “Lone Wolf” Braddock
A fundamentalist, right-winged, ass-kicking Texan ex-Ranger who has strong feelings and always fights against all things communist, unAmerican, and related to drug dealing
Dillon “Action” Creed
A golden-glove-winning heavyweight boxer and Harvard law graduate who despises drugs, doesn't understand street slang, and is trying to employ the black op techniques he used in the CIA to make the world a better place
Marion “Sly Cobra” Rambolone
A former porn star & battle-hardened Vietnam vet who went on to become a heavyweight professional boxer and ended up a cop who thinks “crime is a disease...and I'm the cure”
Random Ninja
The faceless ninja henchman who always seems to fade into the background; who does useful low profile things until the fight scene...then he comes screaming with a yell and dives into the fray with reckless ninja abandon
Jean Claude Van Splitts
A California pretty boy who feels like he has to prove he really can fight despite the fact that that he really is just the gym rat with some fancy moves that everyone says he is
Chris “Dolph” Kenner
An LA cop who likes Japanese food and culture, lives by the bushido, and surrounds himself with all things Japanese, but knows California law quite well and has an ax to grind with any who pervert the bushido in any way
Mason “Nico” Ryback
An ex CIA operative who ran black bag operations in Laos, then returned from 'Nam to save the environment, stick it to those who think they are above the law, & punish those who would harm little kids in any way, be it drug dealing, child porn, or subjugation of the childrens' parents.
...I'm looking forward to running the game....
