It’s possible to just play a version of yourself in a roleplaying game that has abilities and skills you don’t have. Yet Player Characters can be so much more! What is it like to have scales, or a tail? If you could fly, or hurl spells, or run along tightropes high above a busy street, what would you DO? We explore how to make Player Characters more than “Fighter Bob.” Techniques for making your characters really memorable, so they become new friends, fondly remembered.
