Savage Worlds Pulp Concept Characters

Posted on by

I was flipping through the Pulp Fantastic and came across the Archetypes section, and one popped out me:

MASKED AVENGER

And that settled it.  I was gonna make a Green Hornet/Crimson Avenger tribute character, with a twist.

A Filipino playboy and his African-American valet/chauffer by day, scourge of the underworld at night!

Introducing….

THE TIGER BEETLE AND JAZZ BUNGO

I looked up insects of the Philippines, and the tiger beetle jumped out at me.

I mean, no color in the character’s name, which is fine (though tiger beetles come in black, brown and green) but OF COURSE I’m gonna take a beetle name.

And yes, that’s a saxophone on Jazz Bungo’s back.

I’ll work out all the character details later.

CRIMINALS, BEWARE!  THE TIGER BEETLE STRIKES!

Systems Recap

Remember when I said I was going to shelve Savage Worlds and focus on Dragonbane, Captain’s Log, and Dungeons & Dragons with the Mythic Game Master Emulator?

Well, 1 out of 3 was accomplished.

And while I still do plan on starting Dragonbane and Dungeons and Dragons, I’m re-adding Savage Worlds Adventure Edition to the mix, using Pulp Fantastic as the setting.

Along with The One Ring.

In the last month or so I’ve been delving into reaction videos for The Lord of the Rings, and *tried* to continue watching Rings of Power.  The latter never got done, and after reviewing the game system, I’m going to play The One Ring with Strider Mode, the solo system for TOR.

Don’t touch that dial!
