Re: [BNW] Fluke Package [long]



Personally I think this could be a fun package to play.  Either randomly..(so Billy
what can you do today?)  Or Guide chosen, to fit the adventure  (what do you mean
Billy woke up as an Aquarian???)

I modified a copy of my Big List to create a random power generator.  Have fun!
It's posted after the package description

Random power chart.  Roll three six-sided and put the numbers togethor for a 3
digit number.  Thus, roll a 1 a 2 and a 4 you are a Scrapper for today.

Roll a number higher then what I have would be a re-roll.  (or you could be nice
and let the player arrange the numbers any way he wanted..thus a possible three
choices)
