Making your Characters feel real...

[Targan]

One of my favourite NPC backstories in my current campaign is that of Cpl Virgil Morris Price, a Canadian infantryman who, before the war, was an up and coming porn star. He has been the butt of many jokes by the PCs and NPCs in the party and when the party reached New York City one of the PCs even put a lot of effort into finding a couple of video taped films in which Price had starred. Of course the laughing tends to stop when the others sneak a peak while Price is taking a leak... he got into porn for obvious reasons, being rather generously endowed in the trouser department.
