[[Category:Character|Horrorshow]]

A character for Heroes Unlimited Second Edition, created by g026r.

Created using a completely random-roll method; if there was a way to roll for the value, then it was done. Only the skills (and skill groupings) weren't rolled for.

Campaign

Horrorshow works best for a street-level game, preferably one with a heavy infiltration game-style . Sort of a Shadowrun-with-spandex, if you will. The character's less than pleasant powers and side-effects makes the character a good candidate for a game in which an examination of just what makes/it means to be a hero plays an important part of the plot.

Character Stats

Name: Horrorshow
True Name: Cliff Bennett

Commentary

A friend asked for my copy of this book when I decided to clean off my shelves, and I said he could have it after I finished doing up a character. In some ways, I wish I had just given it to him sans-qualifiers instead.

I had forgotten just how much I disliked the Palladium system until I went to make this character. Stats that are really of no use if under 16, poorly organized and explained (or just plain missing) rules, and a creation process that takes fiddly to a new level. Glad I did this one up in pencil. Yeesh.
