Close in on Your Character Concept
Heroes can face some pretty tough decisions. But nothing compares to the choices a player has to make. Whether at character creation or when leveling up, just figuring out how to get the hero on your character sheet to match the one in your imagination can be the toughest challenge in the game.
Modern Player's Companion provides expanded options for creating, developing, and equipping characters, offering even more ways to personalize and customize the heroes of any modern-world roleplaying game.
Modern Player's Companion includes:
- Seven new starting occupations, including Bohemian and Tribal
- Nine class combinations that illustrate how to flesh out a character concept by multiclassing with just the six basic classes
- Eight new advanced classes, such as the Enforcer and the Survivalist
- Twenty-five feats including Cross-Training, Poker Face, and Sidestep
- New equipment, from duffle bags to laser pointers, along with equipment packages that enable heroes to quickly gear up for action
Modern Player's Companion is a 35-page PDF for players and GMs, plus included front and back covers. For more information, please visit The Game Mechanics website. There, you can also find Complete Feats, a document that summarizes all feats from the d20 Modern Roleplaying Game, Ultramodern Firearms (Green Ronin Publishing), and Modern Player's Companion.
