I ran a small combat to see how people would like it.

Pregenerated 25pt characters... these were the guys who wish they they could wish of being hero material.

Each was a one trick pony to see how things behaved.

Eventually the leader was the noble armoured guy effectionately known as Captain Klanky (he had armour and walked slow).

Spear and Shield guy with overconfidence
Paired Tonfa dude with impulsiveness
Zweihander with Beserk
Sword and Shield guy with indecisiveness
Quarter Staff dude with curiousness
Captain Klanky with armour and shield plus code of honour chivalry

Played a couple of games with them and people enjoyed the behaviours. One guy on 'Mission Cliche 1' wanted to know what was over there... aah your impulsive, off you go.

Spear guy thought he would not need his shield and got beaten up by Zombies. Captain Klanky was concerned but the Spear guy managed to convince him he was fine (or rather Captain K did not realise he was fibbing).

Luckily indecisiveness guy managed to get the book back to the alter after a few rolls to be decisive.

It was all a bit of fun.
