: The League of Extraordinary Gentleman - Listener Edition
: Kemlin Dragos April 12, 2013, 12:28:30 AM

I think we can all admit that we love a good, or even a bad, League of Extraordinary Gentleman Game. The best part of those games is the Gentleman ( or Ladies) that are chosen to be played. So here we go, pick three characters that you would love to play in a League game and tell us about them if you like. They can be any heroes, villains, or anti-heroes from any medium. Hell they could even be some of your favorite characters from Know Evil, New Arcadia etc.

Also, if you think of any characters that might be too overpowered, complex, or game breaking to stat out, list those as well.

Keyser Soze-- Usual Suspects

I was discussing this with Ross and decided to share this with everyone. To properly play this character, I would tell everyone at the table that I was playing Bennie from Bennie and June. Until I absolutely had to reveal my alternate identity, I would do silly juggling tricks that Bennie does throughout the movie.

Basic stats: Max Disguise (or equivalent), Max Bluff (or equivalent), Max Spot (or equivalent), Max Killing Skills

M.A.N.T.I.S.  He's Professor X plus Iron Man and his name is an acronym.

Methos.  From Highlander TV series.  Cool character and not over-powered, despite being immortal.

Archer.  Not too far from muderhobo, so being a complete dick is expected.  Plus he's a super-spy.

I would have gone with Burt Reynolds from Archer but I can't do a good impression of him.  It just wouldn't be right.  I thought of some 80's characters but decided not to go with those.  Too many too choose from.

Oh and this:

I do. I also have the Dragon Magazine that wrote it up as a D&D relic, somewhere, if it didn't get accidentally tossed.

Well if you really want an effective team, you'll need the real hero of Puma-man:

I edited my post before posting it to remove Semi-Competent Aztec Man so as to keep it to 3.

Besides, I'd think he'd come with Pumaman anyway, as a kind of skill (the 'oh by the way you have this power' skill, roll to see in any situation if theres some Puma-based power you werent aware of that can aid you)

I would have to go with The Doctor, only an as-yet-unseen regeneration (The Nth Doctor) who is portrayed by Tom Waits.

Second choice, following the Doctor Who theme would have to be Vladamir Putin, who is actually The Master.

And if Doctor Who is off the table entirely, I'll take the BMX Bandit.

It depends a bit on the nature of the game. If we were planning on play a more investigation/horror themed scenario I think I go with one of the following:

Jessica Fletcher from Murder She Wrote (who as the nations most prolific serial killer could also fit into a high body count game).
Dr. R Quincy from Quincy ME
Carl Kolchak from The Night Stalker

Dude, after seeing this I had to go to Youtube and watch the intro to that show. I used to love it when I was a kid. Now I have the friggin' theme song stuck in my head.
