There was one of those "post yourself in your favorite system" thingies on
RPGnet. FFE's my favorite system, so I posted. Figured I'd paste it here,
too, to preserve it for the ages:

S. John Ross, Hardboiled Game Designer
Athletics/6 Charisma/9 Grift/10 Gunplay/5 Jimmy/7 Muscle/7 Nerve/8
Reflexes/7 Stealth/7 Wits/9
Respects/Admires: Passion, bluntness, dedication
Works/Lives For: His wife’s affections, the company of his friends, and
good food
Subplots & Obstacles: Coping with the Unexpected Secret Project, lets his
feelings get the better of him
Resources: Bed Artistry, Chef, Connections (Homeless Community), Crafty,
Eloquent, Infuriating, Inspired (Writer), Lover, Scaramouch, Smooth Talker,
Student of Human Nature
Notable Equipment: Battered and ailing ThinkPad 600 with all Internet
capabilities removed or disabled, dice, pencil, cell phone (which he
resents the existence of, but can’t give up)
Fighting Scores: Toughness/7 Vitality/6 Initiative/6-5
Notes: Fourth-generation Italian, known mostly for his homepage, the Blue
Room. Dabbled professionally in bartending, voice-work, hack journalism and
stage magic before returning to his first and greatest creative passion,
RPG writing.

I'd be toast in a firefight. But I knew that. Probably worthwhile to note
that my Homeless Community connections are more properly expressed as
Connections (South Austin Homeless) ... If I needed to find something out
downtown, it'd be blind luck if someone I knew happened to be visiting the
library or something (lots of my homeless friends use the public library
downtown for their email access, but it would still depend on an indulgent
GM looking to speed things up).
