SV: SV: [DL] Characters

[Nils Anker Oldefar <he1021@non.tietgen.dk>]

The only pistols that can fire two shots an action are semi auto and then
only by using the double tap rules from DL:HOE. Two gun kid only removes the
penalties for firering two guns at the same time and they don't reduce them
by all that much. At least he didn't munch out on you, if you're running
your game like that make sure he never gets twin gatling pistols, or he up
to 12 shots per action, four that almost automatically hit and 8 that you
got roll for innocent bystanders. In law dogs there are no pistols with a
ROF of two, some may have a speed of 2 but thats it. Remember that using a
double action revolver gives you a -1 to the roll (having a gun of quality
negates that).
Two gun kid and two fisted dosen't give the character extra attacks it just
makes them ambidex...

Anyone can shoot 4 times in an action if they have a
pistol in each hand (each pistol fires twice an
action).  They just have to suffer penalties, unless
they spent 8 points and got two-fisted kid and two-gun
kid (Lawdogs).  If this is too mean, imagine sending a
gang of outlaws with this combo up against the posse.

As for funny names.  I can't recall a session where an
NPC didn't have an awful punny name.  My favorite has
to be the practical joker sifu sifu (Master Tuan
Ophan) of our MA (Kat Astrophe).  He also had a few
other students I named on the fly, Ichi, Ni, Son, and
Yon (japanese 1 to 4).  Later they became more
important characters so I added last names.  Ichi was
turned into the handsome leader, Ecchi Bishion.  Ni
became more of an annoying sycophant, Ni Digui.  Son
was the cheerful one and named, Son Edai.  Finally Yon
questioned his religious beliefs and studied judism,
Yon Kipuri.
