Streamlined v2.2 Character Creation

Yes, that's exactly what's in 2.0. One character generated using the assignment method, and the other the roll for stats.

Thank you for the clarification good sir - I'll have to track down the example characters then... not sure why they aren't included as they don't appear to be in the FFE CD ROM collection either

My guess? They were judged unnecessary for the 2.2 version - the worksheet was easy enough to follow without "wasting" several pages on examples.

Hmmm yeah that could be.

Can anyone confirm the DriveThruRPG PDF has the additional characters included or where I could find them - I already have the V2.2 PDF and both the 1st and 2nd edition FFE CD-ROMs as difficult to access the print products.

(Also easier to write posts and articles from the OCR text scans by searching and pasting quotes when needed from the original text)

Absolutely! My hardcopies hardly ever see daylight any more.

I didn't buy my pdf from DriveThru, I bought the CD-ROM from Far Future many years ago but considering that the DriveThru 2.2 pdf is sourced from Far Future then it's likely that they are one and the same - so, the DriveThru 2.2 pdf likely has no character creation examples.

I vaguely recall that when Far Future was trying to compile all the material on pdf, they didn't have hardcopies of their own to scan so they asked fans if they would be able to assist. While that could be seen as a reason they weren't included I'm pretty sure that 2.2 just didn't have them at all.
I'll drag out my dead tree version of 2.2 to check but as Leg mentioned, I think the creation examples were not included in that edition to save space.

The 2.2 BYB is the only hardcopy I don't have at least one of.
The PDF page numbers and contents page all line up and indicate there was never examples in there anyway.

OK so given I have two PDFs (scanned and OCR) I'm not overly.keen to purchase the V2.0 just on the chance it has these example characters so would be interested if someone can confirm or source them befo4e rushing in...

Otherwise I could do an example.writeuo myself as part of the "Starter Kit" concept I've been developing but it's always good to have an exame template to work.off regardless of the system...
