2022 - Character Creation Challenge - Day 27

Another long day, another quick character.  B/X again.


'Mongo only pawn in game of life.'  My first thought after rolling these numbers.


Mongo 'the Pawn' N Fighter 1

S 10 - none

I 8 - can write simple common words

W 7 - -1 on magic-based saves

D 10 - none

C 14 - +1 hp

Ch 7 - -1 adjustment to reactions, 3 retainers max, retainer morale 6

Current XP   0       XP required for next level: 2,001

HP 9

AC 9

Equipment: clothes, chains, near-shapeless hat, improvised weapons, terrible gas

Goal: a full stomach and people to like him; to get them to like him, he does whatever is asked.


Mongo, from Blazing Saddles, on his trusty steed.

Sometimes the dice aren't with you, and in those cases, you roll with it or roll a new PC.  Given that this is B/X, I kept the first set rolled.  It's true that I immediately thought of Mongo when I looked at the numbers in whole.  So why not?  He would be fun to play, for a short series of adventures or a one-shot.

Note that if you haven't watched Blazing Saddles, or other Mel Brooks' films, you're missing out.
