A character for Paranoia Second Edition, created by g026r.
Like all good Paranoia characters, Smoovop started as an idea for a name, and then I hoped that the dice would fall appropriately. The generation method used was the standard roll 1d20 for each stat and re-roll up to 2 stats as desired. Powers, service groups, and secret societies were also rolled randomly.
Campaign
A Paranoia campaign? There really needs to be no description: The Computer gives you a mission, it escalates, you get in trouble, and hope that just maybe you'll still have one clone left when everything is over.
Obviously this character would be best suited for a pre-Crash Alpha Complex, but that's because there was no Crash, no "Vulture Warriors of Dimension X Trilogy", no reboot, &c. (Lalalalala! I can't hear you!)

Character Description
"Hey, buddy! I wonder if you could help me with something. See, The Computer wants me to take care of a little problem for it — top secret, hush hush Troubleshooter-type thing, know-what-I-mean? Uh, yeah... I'm tracking down a commie mutant traitor. Can't put anything by you, I can't. easy to see why you made Orange clearance. Anyway, the... uh... commie is just behind this door here, but I seem to have forgotten my security code, and I really don't know what to do, because I don't want to go back and tell Friend Computer that I've failed and... Oh? You'll use your code to open the door for me? Why, thank you very much, Citizen. I shall be sure to mention your *snicker* help *snicker* to the Computer himself."
Commentary
I re-rolled Mechanical Aptitude (originally a 3) and Power (originally a 6). Overall, I got lucky in that Chutzpah came out as a decent roll — a character with a name like Smoovop-R-ATR can only be a weaselly, fast-talking, used-car salesman type character. As such, a decent Chutzpah Skill Base is needed. Other than that, creation is fairly straight forward: fast, simple, though there are a number of charts needed.
