I've been involved in one aspect or another of the adventure games hobby for the past twenty-five years. Started playing in 1987. (First game? Champions, followed by CyberSpace, the Iron Crown cyberpunk game for Space Master, their sci-fi Rolemaster spin-off.) Was hired by InQuest Magazine in 1996, where I started my editorial career. Since then, I've done work for Green Ronin, Malhavoc Press, Dream Pod 9, and White Wolf. I managed two different game stores in the metro Boston area in the 2000s, and am now working primarily freelance. Still gaming after all these years.

I have a weakness for good coffee and bad puns.

comment PC characteristics overruling player intent
Ooh. This will be contentious. Expect a lot of "no" before you get a workable answer. You can edit the third paragraph to reflect that you got the answer right: it's failing the roll that causes the degeneration and potential derangement, reflecting that you've integrated your immoral act into your personality, either successfully or not. Succeeding at the check means you reject the thing you've done.

Clarified. Many settings have "changelings," including the World of Darkness and Star Trek: DS9.

Are you using the Essentials books at all? The classes in them are designed for players just like that.
