jwd - Walter Pear - (20140210)
* What does the character do well?
Walter Pear can write, shoot a little video, take a picture or two, draw what he can, record a little audio, but he really does two things well: he listens, and he talks. He seems to have a chip of the Blarney Stone for one of his fillings. Other than that, he's a patient optimist.
* Why are they a Taker?
Pure luck. Most days, he'll say "good luck." He's got a front-row seat at humanity's next round of myth-making, the literal conquest of death, and he knows it. Somewhere out there's a new Paul Bunyan, a new John Henry, a new Pecos Bill, a new Johnny Appleseed, a new Harriet Tubman, a new Bugs Bunny, a new avatar of every old hero, and all he has to do is find that man and that woman and tell the story that makes it so--whether or not that story's true.
* What happened to trap them out in the Loss?
Pure luck. Most days, he'll tell you "where else would a storyteller go?"
But that story's not true. Walter Pear stays out in the Loss because he's sick. He doesn't know what's he got. Could be he's Latent, but it could be he's Immune and has something perfectly ordinary and no less pernicious. Cancer still kills, and so do any number of other diseases. Walter knows he has something, because it fucking hurts.
* What is their retirement plan?
Live forever through his art. The whole human race has had enough horror and plain bad news for the next seven generations. It needs heroes, larger than life, larger than undeath, and Walter Pear will bring their stories back to every body who just wants to smile and have a little encouragement at the end of the day. Laugh at the slapstick antics of a half-dismembered zombie? Cheer when someone brings back a big score? Whatever it takes to make the Takers the new heroes for a civilization on the back foot--Walter Pear plans to have his name in the credits.
'Cause he ain't gonna live to see it happen very often.
* How did they come to meet their crew?
Pure luck. Most days, he'll tell you about each of them, the larger-than-life heroes that push back undeath and reclaim a little more land for the living. If the audience is a little older, yeah, he'll tell you about feet of clay, or faults they overcome through work and grit or in the worst-case, noble sacrifice.
But that story's not true either. Sugar and spice tales, and Walter knows it. Greed gilding sociopathy, a weird saprophytic subculture recycling the corpse of humanity's greatest civilization. He's got those stories, too, because knowing where the bodies got buried has kept him alive.
* Who are their dependents?
Walter's got a few support staff back in the Enclaves. Some rework his material for distribution, cleaning up raw copy to fit local markets. Some distribute it as samizdat, others as propaganda, others as cartoons or comic books or coarse videos for the increasingly common illiterates. Walter would like to find a few more investigators to join him "out in the field," but he figures it'll take a generation or two at least for that to happen on its own, and he hasn't got anything like that long to live.
Of course, there was that fellow Fagin, who had a school for orphans...
* Do they live in an Enclave, the Recession, or back at the base?
Pear lives out in the Recession, near the action, and far from the suspicious CDC types of Fedland.

« on: July 15, 2013, 09:56:29 PM »I'd like to see how the RPPR crew does with http://rpg.drivethrustuff.com/product/113064/ViewScream
Though it's a new and odd interface for storygames.
I second the suggestion.
