Oh God, what now?    :-)

I think this is a great idea.  We could build a small data base of these
characters and that would be of great help.  Maybe we could pretty them up and
put them in some kind of "Standard form"  (Should we call ISO or ANSI?) and
when we get a batch of them, upload them to GEnie since they are kind enough to
let us have their files (of course someone is paying for them, but at least
they are letting us redistribute them).

I don't have the character sheets handy, but one of the first I will upload
(besides my numero-uno PC, Anton Devious) is a dude named Tad McBad.  He is a
bounty hunter.  He has a cool character sketch, but I will have to find a way
to scan it in :-).  I have a couple of other NPC's that I have used on
occasions to give my character's fits.  I will try to get some entered into
this computer and mailed out.
