From the back of the book: "Okay, I hate all Lizardmen so I draw my sword and attack!" "So why do you hate Lizardmen, Corwin?" "I don't know, I just do!" Has this ever happened to you? Are your heroes flat, lusterless characters with no sense of history or depth of personality? With Central Casting: Heroes of Legend, characters take on lives of their own. They gain families, friends, enemies, personalities, detailed past histories, and most importantly - gain motivations for life and adventuring! Central Casting is a detailed, stand-alone system of tables, charts, and roleplay guidelines for creating thoroughly individualized, involved and invigorating backgrounds for both player characters and non-player characters.
