As XDMs we knew there are notorious players out there … and most of them with notorious Player Characters! We need to know them better … and how to handle them properly as XDMs and we need YOUR HELP!

Take this creature, for example. Who is he? Where did he come from? Why is he here? Where is he going? Is he even a he? What’s in his satchel? What does the sign behind him REALLY say? Based on the scant evidence from this poster … what can we deduce about this character and why he is so dangerous, Sherlock?

Here is where you come in! We will be posting characters like this one every few weeks here featuring some dramatically rendered (a.k.a. unreasonably quick) original art by Howard Tayler, each linked to a specific forum discussion thread. Whoever among our XDMs who posts the most intreguing, radical, awsome character background and description for the character posted (as judged with an entirely biased and partial eye by the Grand Masters of XDM will be invited to join Tracy Hickman in an online game event later this summer where they will be invited to PLAY one of the characters featured.

We might as well start the 2010 XDM Most Wanted Characters with Exhibit A: scrutinize this poster (click on the image to enlarge) and then post to the forum your thoughts on this obviously dangerous creature.

Let the Xtreme Character Creation for the games begin!

   This is a very cool idea. I will be sure to post something on the forums when I get a wickedly sweet write-up for this character.
