Holy sht, this twirled' s aver
SUN?
Well, apparently the people want to wear of Boxcar Joe, we Magic Hobo
we Saga begins were most of my tales did. Dark Heresy
Back when w ddnt know how the Mes worked (actually, w stall dont On purpose Back then w cared w w was shown a Random Character for the system
What w ended up winwi was a guy who wad only two real talents Mammy his Bass Guntar, and Runing
He was mostly broke. only cloths on his back, ms Bass Guitar, and avouch that was In remarkably good shape'
He was a psyker. one wie really weak ones (so weak it was actually impossible to tell c it wie was)
He had a look that could only be described as Business casual, it it was swept in For about a week/
When wie was described to the group, one of my Marius remarked so you' re pwaying some sort of Magical Hobo?
was were his name came mm we original name, that was vowed tor, was immedately discarded tor the moniker of Boxcar Joe, the Magic Hobo'

First mission tor the Infestor, w wasnt in the group yet

They met up mth some been arbitrators. got some weeds, and went hunting
played his Bass mm a rhythm so an impromptu dance party in the wows! Hive
we acolytes got into a heated Just outside the pub were Boxcar Joe was trying to dank his lunch in peace
He stepped out, and this is where w became aware of my
on my wen. A techpriest, some sort of impends assassin, two guardsman, and someone who Woks We they Just stepped out Ma pulp Pl novel mm the 50' s Trench coat, Mora. whole
on my right, Give or Take
w grabbed my home, and chucked it at the
w wont wie and pretend w remember all Mme numbers, but
we some hit a Hoe Tyrant that was inviseble for some reason
we tyrant had its was turned by the pure alcohol
more tyrant wrested mm bridge
and owner behing Malawi: fall wing all but we one i. shot oi the defective the otherone kicks in the face so hard it new decapitated
baked over at the stunned group
Bigworlds, yeah? You have to watch the local cockroach populated bastards get real uppity every couple of years (F
w was then shadowmed into the group
m not going to tell all the DH related tales, but wie lasted pretty much we entire campaign Whenever he was directly involved in e , all rolls would go nght to martyr end or we spectrum Every other roll
the end, we got sucked into the warp sueng his couch
wet end owns story

About a month later, w was running a Shadowrun game (mi , it matters)
They were all rowling up characters, and there was one new guy who wasnt there tor the DH game
He opted tor a random creation thog
Ended up wth a techical pawns! Hobo street shaman who Wed on a couch in a downtown alleyway
He owned a Bass Guitar. Alwats shades that looked sightly too big tor mm, and his couch was even described as w mna% bly good shape'
We all yoked that two defferent computers wth two defferent random generators had created Boxcar we
Awe explaning why it was so ****** new guy, we laughed and named wits character . the Magic Hobo
we game went along normally tor a wits. and then the net combat happened
Boxcar we grabbed a can or tomato soup, spent a point of edge, grabbed six dice, and wet w at one ems guys trying to mug Him
We have e rue wen it comes to exploding dice every Edie 'explodes' the Intended stem gets bigger
27 nits water. all seven thugs (one was Hiding around the comer) were dead mm the side ensue mist thrown can one gun aww recharged into a passing truck, istantly kong the driver wth a hearshot
and bringing the van to a mashing halt into the entrance Mme alley
Boxcar we starts wreaking out, because stopping the thugs cost han ms dinner
Bahia anyone in the group courd console m. we back door Mme delivery van popped open revealing the randomly rolled tor cargo Assorted %
we game wasted about six months, and in the second to the last session Boxcar Joe lost control or a spell and got thrown into a magic porter out or ream
Awe that game, a couple Mom players went them separate ways We played some games wth some new guys, and then w ran into one Mme dudes who wen
He had a story to tell about Boxcar Joe

Tums out that she played in e Delta Green game. and one wie guys in the group, using some worm of random generator. ended up creating Boxcar use
When she met him in the game. she started laughing about the character, saying wie sounded llke someone mm an fathergame the Magic Hobo
At this point, according to , the group few silent They showed hertha sheet
Name . the Magic Hobo
They then forthat Iwas a running joke tor a couple of local groups, were a musically inclined Magic Haba' own a couch w surpisingly good shape' had turned up in more than a few random character
generators
Part wie running joke was that played wth the and the laws
so then w asked out wen wees games happened in elation to ours
After doing some math (and a Mme bit ) w made an interesting discovery Fastly, due to a combination of genie schedules and campaign , it seems as though Boxcar Joe was not in any two
games at once parallel running games yes, but it one game was on a Tuesday and so was another, something would happen that would amount to Boxcar we going away tor that one session we the guy being
Secondly Every time Boxcar we has wen a game, he hasnt died At least not in a way that the body was ever wound
Sucked into a pan: -, thrown on a cw. sewer Hem tenure, etc Almost cerain deaths in everylast, but no body ever wound
sometimes the game ends and Just btches a ride out Motown or somethiing, navesto be seen again
As a result, w have a sneaking suspicion that every appearance wie character Boxcar use is in tact the same person

As wares my personal theory goes w have two pieces of candence in my favor Every Instance of his apperance that w can m involved both a random character generator. and the laws or probablty going nght out the
we GUNS same person appearing in (no particular order) Dark Heresy, Rogue Trader, Shadowrun. Exalted, two AND New Worlds oi Darkness, [headlands, Call , Delta Green, DRAH, Star
wars. MAID. six games, D& D (Fahren, Eberron, Dark Sun, Spell Jammer, and at least two homebrew setting's, Fantasy can spy Cat. and about SIX different homebrew games?
****** fl know
Not sure w want to
A Mend of mine once pointed out that it we swapped the couch out Frer e , wie would bare an uncanny to we Doctor
rd rather not thiink on that too hard
