Sample Characters
Men of Intrigue and Honour ... and a Lady!

Introduction
Finally, in this volume of the Miscellany, we offer you some characters that are perfect to pluck
straight from the book and into the hands of your players. These characters are perfect to insert
into any of the published adventures from Omnihedron Games - especially ‘Rescue Lady Barbara’
in this book, mixing army and navy characters together.

Adaptability
Each of the characters comes with their own set of variables that the players can set at the start of
the game - namely their name, ship and any associated NPCs for reputations. This allows a degree
of for the players which will give them greater ownership of the characters.

All Levels
For each service there is an officer, a senior non-commissioned officer (Sergeant and Bosun) and a
lower ranked character. In addition, there is an extra guerilla character for Duty & Honour, to add
a little potential spice. Any of the Duty & Honour characters could easily double as a Marine in a
game of Beat to Quarters.

Downloadable
Each of these character sheets is downloadable from the Omnihedron Games website
(www.omnihedron.co.uk) for use in your own adventures.
