For the second, I took the suggestion of putting my family name first, and I've finally gotten a translation of it into Japanese that I appreciate. Neat doodad, this generator. The translations are fascinating...

Got this from the LJ of whumpdotcom, which I was visiting because he and my friend obadiah went down to watch the SpaceShipOne launch in the Mojave, and he was sending LJ posts in throughout, transcribed by phone...

Character: Captain Henry Edward Mission

We join our hero, Captain Mission, returning home after an evening spent saving Abilene from burning down after a mob screwed up their attempt to smoke out a were-coyote. In the morning, he plans to get together with the other protectors of the town and track the blood trail left by the critter; as such, he's borrowed a pair of hounds. The hounds are actin' mighty uneasy as they approach his house.

"Susan?" he calls with trepidation.
"You'll wake the baby--" his wife replies through the door, interrupted with "Mwaaaa! Mwaaaa! Mwaaa!" joined by the hounds "Howoooooo! Howooooo!"

She hushes the baby, he quiets the hounds, and they discuss the situation. He checks the house to make sure it's clear, and she prevails on him to get his friends before looking through the caves where they hangar their airship. She closes herself up in the house again, and covers over the baby's ears, but even so:
"Boom!" goes the rifleshot, to be heard in town.
"Mwaaaaa! Mwaaaaa! Mwaaaaa!"
"Howoooooo! Howoooooo!"
And Captain Misson, who helped win the Civil War, who's bested zombies and cultists and firebreathing badger-frogs, puts his head in his hands and quietly groans...

I'm getting to really love Deadlands. It's a sort of Steampunk/Old West/Horror game; got a picture of a skeleton in a duster with a six-gun on the cover. I love the entrepreneurial spirit, the feeling that you can go anywhere in the US and you'll find weird stuff. I love the mechanics... It uses every die from d4 to d12, with a bit of d20, in great wads, with playing cards to boot. I love the trimmings of the setting: Saloons, gunfights, poker games, railroads, airships...
