[QUOTE="Psion, post: 1092903, member: 172"] For my innagural Second World Sourcebook game, I am planning on running the free download adventure [i]Small Worlds and Exiles[/i] (see 2WS's [URL=http://www.second-world-simulations.com/SWS%20Downloads.htm]download page[/URL] for more information.) In it, the players get tied together by a fight in a coffee shop. The adventure recommends just for entertainment purposes putting a celebrity incognito in the coffee shop and having them play along when it gets raided by creatures from other dimensions. Now here is part two: this will be the last session with one of my players, as he will be moving soon. He says he didn't want to make a new character for this game and he is just going to come and observe. I thought I might try to make the character an interesting person to play for one session just to entice him to join the festivities and have him play as the celebrity. So, my question is: 1) Which celebrities do you think would be fun to play as a one shot, and 2) What classes/levels do you think they would have in d20 modern terms? Try to keep the levels low, 4-6 total levels maximum. This is a low level adventure and I don't want the character to outclass the party by too much. I was thinking of Jackie Chan or Michelle Yeoh, but I am having trouble fitting them into 6 levels to my satisfaction. Jackie is obviously agile, but does his own stuff and gets banged up alot, so that suggests fast and tough hero to me. But I also feel like I should throw a level of charismatic and/or a level of martial artist or martial arts master in there. (Edit: Looking over Jackie Chan's real biography, it looks like his training in acting is actually much more notable than his training in martial arts. Perhaps I'll skip the martial arts classes altogether and just go wiht feat and add charismatic levels.) I was also thinking Bruce Campbell would be interesting to play along. Arnie is an obvious choice (even suggested by the adventure) but due to current events, I am leaning away from him. Who else might be an interesting star who might join in a brawl with otherworldly creatures? [/QUOTE]
