Character Generator
As an old player trying to get back into the game (now that I have some time) who has played about every type of character there is to play in Cantr, I found it tough to come up with ideas for new characters rather than play the rather old and stale types that I have played in the past. So I happened upon this site recently, http://nine.frenchboys.net/fantasychar.php , that generates characters with a brief description of their looks, a job (which one could easily make into a goal in Cantr) and some sort of unique quirk. Now while the descriptions are pretty brief it did give me some interesting ideas for new characters.
So I thought I would share this with everybody. Have fun with it.

"Teisri is a flirtatious day laborer with dark brown hair and bluish gray eyes, who dresses oddly."
This describes most of the characters in Cantr

Dwitani is a kindly soothsayer with red hair and gray eyes, who is strangely scarred.
Kuiqui is a obsequious middle-aged sculptor with blond hair and bluish gray eyes.
Matsi is a self-conscious interpreter with sandy hair and golden eyes, who is extremely tall and thin.
Sennatian is a gentle aging shopgirl with blue-black hair and brown eyes.
Tocio is a romantic prostitute with blue-black hair and silver eyes.
Toy is a officious limner with red hair and mismatched eyes, who has pointed ears.

I'm sure I've met all of these!
This is good fun.

Re: Character Generator
I actually used this site (well, not the fantasy char generator, but his detailed character generator), to help put together some of the description for a character of mine when I returned to the game and was feeling lazy.

Re: Character Generator
I did something similar once for a MUD I played on, except instead of using a generator, I made my own, and it fully generated a paragraph of description based on different variables, with optional variables for personality, history, etc. It was actually sort of nifty. And XML.

Re: Character Generator
The detailed char gen is actually pretty cool, might check out when trying to think of a description for my next char.

Which part? Using the generator? Or the one word response?
