Name: Alexander
Mutation: Ate irradiated food (experimental)
Education/Training: Extensive culinary training, has adapted this into combative skills, able to use most cooking ingredients and tools (or the "hardware" and "software" a la Alton Brown) effectively as weapons.

Stats:
IQ = 10
ME = 13
MA = 7
PS = 13
PP = 10
PE = 10
PB = 11
SPD = 10
(kinda crazy how close they are)

Background:
Alexander is a largely "average" mutated skunk.  Always a hungry character (likely due to high metabolism), struck it big one night discovering a large container of food.  He failed to comprehend the various warnings on it and ate it, passing out and awakening to find himself "antrhopomorphized."  As it turns out, it was a failed experiment in performing what would essentially amount to nuclear freeze-drying, preserving food in a more simplified state so that it could be brought back at a later time.  Seeing his new condition as a stroke of good luck he sought a mentor who could teach him the art of cooking so that he could satisfy himself with finer food than garbage.  However as one might expect, it is a bit difficult to find a chef willing to train and deal with a overly large skunk (albeit a very skillfull cook), so his mentor is a bit "odd" to say the least (I suppose a bit like Gusepi from the Candlewick AP) and insisted that he learn to use his skills not only to feed himself, but as personal defense as well.

So, yeah.  Let me know if there are any changes or something I should make (not sure what kind of backstory is desired)...

that's fine. I just borrowed the TMNT book from Tom and random PC gen is always fun.

I wrote that character background and I realized I have to use that general idea at some point (cook/fighter).  I can just imagine someone fighting with food effectively.  It's like one of those scenes in action movies/TV shows where they run through the kitchen.  Except this guy would stop and fight, as everything would be a weapon...

Obviously there is more to chargen in the book but it's too much to post here - pick skills, equipment but there's one interesting part - mutations - basically each animal chooses what kind of human features they would have. The categories are

Hands - can you use tools like a human or not?
Biped - 2 legs or 4
Speech - talk like an animal or not
Looks -can you pass for human or not?

Each category has to be set to none, partial or full. Partial biped is like a bear - you can stand up but you run on all fours. Full human looks is something like the thundercats - can pass for human but still has animal features

The TMNT are hands, biped, speech full, looks none

There's also size and optional psionic powers. Also, some animals have unique powers like the skunk's stink spray or cheetah speed or flying as a bird.

You get BIO-E points to spend on these features. Each animal starts with so many - small animals get a lot of points, big animals not as much. You can lower your size to get more points but you become easier to kill (can take less damage) and if you go too small you get attribute penalties

Anyway, it's a neat chargen system.

IF I ROLLED YOU UP A CHARACTER YOU BETTER WRITE A BACKSTORY - Tad's and Mckma's were AWESOME and I expect greatness out of everyone

The character of Alexander the Skunk lives on!  I have to do a team builder for my staff tomorrow and the person I am working with on it suggested making short comic strips, cutting them up and distributing them.  Then people would try to figure out the order and the story without showing them to others.  I drew a four panel strip of his mutation and training.
