Game: Guess the character! - Page 8

Yeah, I actually figured the Warp power would be a dead give-away, because of how jarring I found the change.

I actually like other characters from the back of the GURPS book better, but Dai feels like the iconic GURPS character. Only Flamin' Jane comes close, and she was more of a 3e character. And I was curious who actually read the characters in the back of the book.

You should check out GURPS/4e sometime. It's got lots of changes. :)

None other than the legend (wait for it) dary Barney Stinson from How I Met Your Mother. Oh, and the code of honor would be the Bro Code.

Unfortunately, I have to go to work, so I wouldn't be able to let anyone know if mine was right, so I'll let someone else make a character.

Ditto. Given that two of my perks are "Doesn't watch TV" and "Loathes anime," I suspect it'll be a while. :)
