Let's see … Well, time to break out the **[[Wushu]]** [section on character generation ](http://danielbayn.com/wushu/high-flying-heroes/): --- **CHRISTOPHER WALKEN** Intimidating Son-of-a-Bitch - *Subvert the Dominant Paradigm*: 5 If there's one thing Walken knows, it's how to tear down the walls. Is the world around him lawful? He's a criminal. Is heaven at war? He's a rebel angel. Whatever's in play, he's very good at tearing it down. - *Bloody Mess*: 4 When Walken goes to war, it's going to get bloody. He can swing a hammer straight into your testicles. If he punches you, he may shake his hand in temporary pain, but you're on the ground. Garotte from behind? That's what he likes. - *Silver Tongued Devil*: 3 He spends a lot of time talking fast and looking good. But mostly talking fast. He's not just glib, he'll make you believe it. Even if you don't believe it, you'll go along with it because it sounds so good. Don't ask how he brought you that watch. Pay attention when he tells you how the mafia works. Remember, this isn't the first time he told you to shush. - *Can't Help Digging*: 1 Walken's never seen a situation he can't make worse by talking himself into it. Arrogance? He can do that. And absolutely will. Talking too much? Probably. Letting the pro/antagonist get the jump on him because he just can't stop monologuing? Oh yes. Everybody has a weakness. And this one is his. --- Not specifically fantasy, more broad spectrum, but - a pretty solid showing.
