No problem, man. Just find a viable character.

A burglar? Then our characters will know eachother...

Already in a Zombie game but 2 can't hurt. How about a Hollywood stunt man who is on vacation after a movie he shot in Australia? How many disadvantages and Quirks are you allowing?

There is no real limit, but make the character logically built. If you're an ass with the number of disadvantages, I'll be an ass about exploiting them. If the guy's playable, I'll accept him.

How cinematic is the campaign? As in, is "Computer hacking" an available skill, can I make a kid that is actually an adult in a kid body, and all the whiz, or should I make something a bit more real?

[Gwythaint]

IMHO, Make someone who won't get eaten, or still has skills when the power goes out...

I will follow the Rule of Cool in terms of cinematics: I'll give bonus points for doing cool stuff. At the same time, that kind of character is almost useless in this setting; I'd recommend building a more survivable character.

Here goes my character:

Albert Jones

Albert works for the hotel's casino as a Probability Verification Specialist; he catches( and interrogates and intimidates) people presumed of cheating, and is an adjunct of the hotel security department. He grew up as a bit of a tough, and knows his way around the back of a pool cue, and most other blunt instruments as well.

And the first character is in. He'll do.
