Are you reading that Mundo???? You should do things like that!!!!!!
:) Just joking but some of those ideas sound cool, for example my GM grans
us better skill levels or even non paid skill levels if our backgroud is
good "enough" (correct me on this one please) or better contacts and so on,
on the other hand if we create the standat Orfan Non caering black coat
motherfragging drek kiking munchking character
we have two alternatives, either he dies, (This is the good one) or he
starts to develop our baxkground as the game goes. And let me tell you he
has an amaizing power of manipullation, for example your character falls in
love with the small girl whose parents you killed last week, and vbelive me
you feel guilty about tha and other situations which make the game a lot
more fun. So for our group Background is allmost everithing.
