April fools, I'm still here. Actually, it's just been busy and I'm stealing time from sleep to use my computer.
So five characters from the Call of Cthulhu 1990s Handbook, printed 1995 and bought new. Ow. I'll edit in some pics tomorrow.
Remember the two Delta Green characters I tried and got average to lousy rolls on so they had very little real skill in anything? This fixes that. Also going back to the original rules I find that I massively misremembered and screwed them over a couple things. Maybe I'll re-do them later.

Absolute favorite line. I still think about it during games someyimes.
