Re: More historical and literature characters
Using Pathfinder rules I would use base line Medusa stats with six levels in cleric (she started out as a high priestess of Athena). Then add either 4 advancements from the Bestiary or three mythic tiers

Re: More historical and literature characters
By 1890 Geronimo had been in prison some and 80 years old. As a hunter most of his life he is proficient with archaic weapons as well as the Winchester model 1873 and a Colt single action revolver. Dread possibilities. Perhaps haunted his last days by the ghosts of his massacred people

Re: What do you guys think of "Rules Nazis" as DMs?

Re: Real life fear/horror/madness
