New Dublin, Johnny Vega Head of the British Firm



Johnny Vega aka Gentleman John, Johnny's rise to the top was far from what you would call a normal route, in that he's not know for violence, Johnny's life of crime began with pulling off con-jobs a roll he was well suited to given his exquisite manners which earned him the nickname Gentleman John, but don't let that fool you as when needs must Johnny will go toe to toe with the best of them & despite his charm has a ruthlessness not matched by many. 

Fists 3, Gats 4, Guts 5, Smarts 5, Stunts 2 Hits 4
Exquisite Manners If a non-Leading Role enemy is about to start a fight, the character can say just the right thing to put him off (prior to shots being fired or punches thrown). The character tests his SMARTS +1 each turn until he fails--then the fun begins!

    Another great idea for a character, I dare say he is pretty useful with that umbrella too.

      Thanks Dave, as the saying goes it takes all sorts, as for the disclaimer that's very important in these days of law suits :)

    Great character background and name. I like this sculpt a lot too (what manufacturer ?); good selection of colours, making him quite a suave looking guy.

      Thanks Joe, the model is from Pulp Figures, & I think matched up with the character perfectly :)

    Your English Toff could grace the front page of the Tattler, another fun background for your character as well.
