Default Dungeon Fantasy Pregens ROFCON 2015

Guys,

I'm going to be at a local con running GURPS Dungeon Fantasy demos and I was hoping I could crowdsource some more pregens for players so there is a wider variety to choose from. I can't offer anything other than my gratitude and would really appreciate any time anyone is willing to spend to help me out here.

Guidelines:
  • All characters need to be in GCA format.
  • All characters need to adhere to the RAW for Dungeon Fantasy (either supplements or Pyramid issues)
  • All characters must be at least 250 points and no more than 350 points. Use the higher range for templates that aren't as "attractive" to pick-up players (clerics, wizards, etc.) and the lower band for "ogg smash" types. Though that doesn't have to be the case for a cool concept.

Thanks again to anyone who lends me a hand. :-)

Query, because I understand this to be a GM judgement call -

Are racial templates bought out of advantage points, resulting in minotaur barbarians being "beefier" than human barbarians but having basically no personal advantages

The alternative, which makes sense from an order of operations sense but can make math interesting, is starting with the racial template (Ogre, say) and making sure your Ogre conforms to the Barbarian template (which results in buying ST down and producing a rather cheap Ogre). On paper this math is annoying enough to make templates kinda pointless, but in GCA it's just a matter of taking the Ogre template before you take the Barbarian one.

Option B makes an Ogre Wizard that can actually be a useful Wizard a matter of a few button clicks, once you remove the Magic Resistance (taking up much of his personal disads). Which is certainly an unusual option, and once you shake it around and let the details settle down, it makes for an interesting wizard :) But probably not a 250 point one.

B for sure.

Pyramid professions or not?
Imbuments or not?
Psionics or not?
Ninja or not?
Non-human Ninja or not?
Any races you don't want?

What deadline?

A normal week I would fire 20-30 DF CGA files at you.

This week, I'm preparing 12 THS characters, 12 MH characters, and 9 150 point modern adventure characters for a different con the same weekend (MystiCon).

If I'll see what I can send your way.
-Dan
