The Coriolis Effect

Dave reminisces about Hobo, an antagonist from his old James Bond 007 campaign. Matthew still, in a sulk about NPCs from yesterday, chooses to answer a different question instead: Most Memorable character retirement.

Matthew takes issue with the whole concept of NPCs. Dave reminds him that we have only a few minutes. We talk about Mariko, Bobby Rashid’s wife in Dave’s Serenity RPG campaign, and Charles Bennet-Smythe*, the PC who became an NPC, although controlled by his player. (See what I mean Dave!? There is no such thing as an NPC!!) Apropos Charles Bennet-Smyth, we also claim the “Evil Hat stole our idea” and published The Ministry – a Fate World of Adventure.
