Skip grows up in the slums of Egypt in a large, poor family. Finding work as the "Go for" at a small factory, he quickly gets a reputation of having the right tool at the right time.

Aspect 1: You mean this?
"If only we had that key from the main foyer..."
"You mean this?"
"Aha! Excellent work my boy!
- - - - - "Well, we'll be fine as long as no one touched the ancient skull of Amon-Ra."
"Uh... You mean this?"
"Ah shit."
Aspect 2: Friends in Low Places
"Oi, you're Skip? I think my sister's friend used to go out with your cousin."
"I think I remember her, very nice girl. Say, you mind puttin' the knife away?"

Alternate Usage: Exceptional Handling (Like in the movies)
Aspect 4: Hasty Machinist
"That plane flew like a champ, what did you do to her this time?"

"..."
Phase 3 (Your Novel!)
- - - - - Skip Nazeer and the Flying Castle of Baron Malik
When his mentor, Clifford Dunston is captured by the Ottoman madman, Baron Malik, Skip must use his technical know-how to stop the Baron's flying fortress of doom. Perhaps his newest toy can help him stop this tyrannical foe in time!
- - - - -
Aspect 5: Skip's Gyr-yoyo
New Gadget - 3 Improvements
Base: Toy Yoyo
Armed: Bludgeoning weapon
Alternate Usage: Gyroscopic - Uses Engineering instead of Weaponry

Aspect 6: Thorn in the Side of Baron Malik
"Sir! The starboard gas-thrusters are losing power, and someone's reported a jail break in the brig, the Australian Centurion is escaping!"
"That blasted boy, Skip! I'll end him if I have to take the castle down with me!"
EDIT: Although I now understand that you have to have been born on January 1st, 1900? I guess I could make that boy-ish machinist?
i'm playing a character that alludes to a william s. burroughs play
I ain't role-playing. I ain't no gay. I'm just saying what I would do if I was into that kind of thing, like I would bone Christian Bale if I were, you know, that way.

Which is surprising since I am a whore for superhero based RPGs.

consulting PI for a drawing that doesn't involve manatees (to my knowledge)
Superheros without capes.
If nothing else comes from all this, at least Pooro, PI, and I are now Facebook pals.
Cheers, Bemis!
