BobGreenwade Posted May 7, 2004 Report Share Posted May 7, 2004 I just came across a couple of interesting names, and I thought... what if a GM were to throw the players off an investigative track by giving an unseen boss a strange-sounding -- but definitely Human -- name? For instance, the PCs keep hearing the bad guys talk about a powerful figure named Vulko Trombulak, and assume he's an alien only to learn that he's quite Human (it's a Bulgarian name).

JohnTaber Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 Re: How to surprise your players Hi Bob: I had a funny comment to your idea. In my Star Hero campaign I am getting names from my company's phone list. I simply got the phone list, removed the number, and printed it. With the number gone I now have a nice space to write a little comment. After the game I can flesh out the details. Works GREAT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
