[QUOTE="Wednesday Boy, post: 5630092, member: 53678"] At a con my friends and I were invited to play in a Star Wars game. We were very excited to get to play in it but immediately after getting our "character sheets" (which were duplicates of the same generic pilot NPC stat block) we realized that it was really an ongoing campaign with the long-term players playing actual characters and chumps they picked up (like us) playing cannon fodder NPCs. Usually I want a seriously toned game and sillyish names are very off putting to me but since obviously it was a throwaway game for us I immediately started not taking it seriously. Hence the famed X-wing pilot, Greedo Calrissian was born! I named him that simply to amuse my friends and I until combat since we weren't involved in any of the drama. But the crowning point in the session was when my character, the lone survivor of the climatic battle, was being dressed down by our commander for fleeing and he demanded my name. "Greedo Calrissian, Sir!" It was beautiful. [/QUOTE]
