Welcome to the game; you are the Original Recipe Ash
ALIGNMENT: Town
GENERIC: Special
WIN CONDITION: All Scum and malicious third-parties (if any) have been vanquished.
BACKGROUND:
You have heard it said that Superman wears Chuck Norris underpants. That may well be true. But if you look closer, you'll find that all those tiny Chuck Norrises decorating the Man of Steel's stylish boxer-briefs are wearing little underoos of their own, and on those underoos are pictures of a guy with two thumbs, and that guy is you.
You are Ash, the original recipe, and back in your day you faced down a Demon Apocalypse much like this one using only a Remington 12-gauge shotgun, a chainsaw, and some badly-written quips. Your kid was in the last movie, but this time around they need something more. They need a real hero. They need the guy who once, on a dark night many years ago, uttered the nigh-on Shakespearan words, "This is my boomstick."
Now, some time has passed. You have replaced the hand the Demons took from you lo those many years ago with a fine robot prosthetic, and you haven't shotgunned anyone's head off in... well, it's been at least a week. You have a bit less hair on your head and a few more wrinkles on your face. But your supply of awesome is as unlimited as ever.
We'd wish you luck, but let's face it: Ash doesn't need Luck; Luck needs Ash.
And maybe that sentence makes no sense, but who cares? You're the guy with the gun.
POWERS:
1. You have brought with you a single 12-gauge shotgun and a total of three shells. You may use this weapon in one of three ways, by either Day or Night, as you see fit:
ADMINISTRATIVE NOTE: Ash doesn't know it, but he can resist a single Night kill attempt by the Deadites (if another party attacks him, he will die). If the Deadites attack Ash, he will lose a hand but survive.
1. Ash will replace his hand with a chainsaw. From that point forward, he will have to kill every Night.
2. Ash's hand will become possessed by an evil spirit, and become the Evil Hand. It will join the Scum. It will obviously not be a player in the game, have a vote, or count toward anyone's win condition. What it can do, once per game, is carry out the Scum's Night kill on behalf of the collective (the Scum will decide when to use this ability). This will allow the kill in question to be untraceable, and will also free the Scum to use other powers as they wish. Once the Evil Hand has killed, it will die for good.
