Playing the Travellers/Spacemen?

[Vile]

I've played and refereed many fantasy games that involved, for want of a better term, "sci-fi" characters. And vice versa. Blackmoor seems to have an advantage there in having the premise built right into the setting. Just as a matter of general principle I never stop players experimenting with their characters (although I will stop them repeating a failed experiment).

I find that the best characters are often the least obvious - think Red Dwarf, for example.
