all it is a show for hormone driven... oh

The theory that all guys who watch Buffy and are straight do so to look at SMG is mostly a false one, particularly for RPGers. At least speaking for myself, I like it because it fits the fantasy/RPG mold and does so in a better way than any similar show.

Are there any powerups for the slayer?
EDIT: and to add to the buffy discussion. What is wrong with the show that people would think that guys can't watch it for the content? Do people think the female dominance thing is too scary for straight guys? I know alot of straight guys who just love the humor and the fun of the show. SMG isn't THAT good looking and she's turning into a mini-Calista Flockhart at the rate she's whittling away to bones along with the rest of the female cast. So that can't be the reason.

several points;
1. I'm don't watch the show for SMG. she's not my type. (Now Ms. Hannigan... I always did have a soft spot for redheads)
2. I actually started watching b/c of James Marsters. For those of you who don't know, he's the actor who plays Spike.. AKA 'William the bloody'.. AKA 'the bleached blonde vampire who just got a soul and is now crazy.'
3. No I'm not gay. (Thats what people ALWAYS ask me when I say I started watching for Spike and not Buffy).
4. Joss Whedon is AWESOME. See, I like the Buffy/Angel series b/c they're actually GOOD shows. Which anyone who's actually taken the time to sit down and WATCH them will have to admit.
Now onto the game stuff:
5. Slayer Powerups don't come into play until AFTER the game starts, b/c you don't start as the slayer. The real slayer will die during the first adventure and that's how you'll get chosen.
6. No, Buffy isn't going to be the 'current' slayer in this game. There'll probably be continuity errors between this game and the show so to ignore those we'll say this isn't the EXACT same universe, just very similar.
7. need characters, peeps!

Amen. Joss is something of a genius
On to my character: I've expanded on the idea of the Wild Talent feat for the Divine Gift feat. Mechanically it's the same as Wild Talent, just replacing a psionic power with a divine spell. Does this seem OK to you, Jemal, or should I change/drop it?

okay James Marsters...yummy 
Anyway my slayer idea....I'd like to go back to the Buffy that's in the movie. Less angsty and more fashionista.

She's from a very wealthy family and has always lived a rather charmed life. Popular girl at school, varsity cheerleader (this is her first year on the varsity squad, made junior varsity as a freshman), student council, dance committee, fashionista and surfing at the beautiful california beaches(lol if we're in california)...and of course major interest in gossiping about cute boys with her equally popular (and somewhat snobby) friends. Her natural dexterity was something she always took for granted.
Her life is parties and fun fun fun! The last thing she wants is responsiblity...real responsibility, especially about thinking of someone other than herself and her charmed life. She's just enjoying life (and boys) too much to do any of that. She spends money like there's no tommorrow and one of her favorite pastimes is (surprise!) shopping with her friends and hanging out at the upscale malls.
LOL wow that was a teen flashback for me....
