[QUOTE="Spatzimaus, post: 1419791, member: 3051"] Races: Human, Dinosaur, Robot, and Monkey Classes: Pirate, Ninja, Caveman, Astronaut, and Popcorn (Base on the Rogue, Bard, Barbarian, Ranger, and Expert with heavy modifications). The Pirate and Ninja were obvious, but after a recent episode of Angel included the Caveman vs. Astronaut argument, my friends and I began using that debate in our campaign. So they're pretty good fits for this concept. As for "Popcorn", that's from an older game where the characters had Godzilla-like fighting monsters, and the innocent civilians who ALWAYS seemed to get in the way were referred to as that. In this game, they'd be the random non-combat characters with lots of skill points, the Expendable Red-Shirts the heroes easily fight through, the damsel in distress the players see running from the monsters, and so on. As there are no spellcasters at all, it's automatically "low magic" and "grim 'n gritty". While the thought of a Dinosaur Wizard has a certain appeal, it's just a bit much. [/QUOTE]
