I'm going to be guilty of this, an alien bounty hunter from outer space will be a minor foe in a 60's Luchadores pulp game he is there to kill an alien band which will be friendly npc.
Probably going to name him Stardust Crusader

>>55238157
I do this. One of my characters is Forrester, and another one is called Florent.

>>55238492
Story time please.

>>55238840
I don't have any storytime yet anon, I will soon have a group to play the game, I just have ideas for it. I Can tell you more about the game and system if you want
The system is called Luchadores, it takes place in an archipelago in the middle of the Bermuda Triangle. The Pc are masked warrior with magic Mask, Luchadores, fighting against monsters trying to destroy the island, it's very inspired by Luchaxploitation movies, it's a really good game.
The picture I used is what I requested in the drawthread, the band is mentionned in the rulebook of the game, they are the Astro-Men aliens who crashed on earth and became a band to pay the bills to repair their wrecked spaceships, to the eyes of the public of course, they are just a radical band wearing Tv screens for the style.I liked the concept so I expanded on them. They were 4 aliens friends who went on a roadtrip, they did a few robery and after a rough pursuit they crashed on earth. The bounty hunter is after them for the money but Also because Starcrash(the guitarist with the star) fucked Stardust wife, so he have another reason to chase him.

I got ton of Idea for the game, I will run it in an episodic fashion , probably with recurent story element. The Idea I had for session are:
>Fighting against an Undead Syndicate with zombies,mummies and a vampire boss
>Destroying a robotic nazi brain
>Escaping the new fancy Dunwich hotel full of eldtrich Monster

I hope I'll get to run it though!

We had to play a Dark Heresy Game with "RAGE" who for those who dont know is just akuma as an angry black man, and then his player didnt even rip hom off right, playing him more like Draxx from guardians of the galaxy

You can't make me stop naming special agents after the Freelancers.

>>55237701

You know, never did it or saw it done, but why the fuck not?

Unless the character's name is Jesus or Hercules.

>>55237701
>Not having a cleric named Unapishtim

>>55245120
Jesus is actually a decently common name in some places. IIRC, it shares etymology with Joshua, which is a pretty fucking common name.

I made a space fighter pilot once.

I realized later than her handle on radio (chosen from hebrew, means "dawn") was Shahar. Well, I realized the connection later, to be more precise.

Unfortunately she was NOT a blonde, wore masks only at a grand masquerade ball but I guess she did came to the party to laugh at them, in her own way.
