(IOU) Owen Humprie

Owen Humphrie
Owen is a theater major and inspiring actor. He has had some walk-on one lines in some cheap movies being made locally, and has been an extra in several as well. Owen is willing to do what it takes to get that big acting job. He’s very handsome and athletic though his resume lacks. He has a drug problem. He often likes to use the “don’t you know who I am” line and drops names of famous people he has met in passing, embellishing the story to make it sound as if they are good friends.

Struggling Actor with an Eidetic Memory (4)
Able to remember anything he has seen or read, this helps Owen memorize his lines and pass his classes.

I Do My Own Stunts (3)
Owen tries to get the parts by selling himself as an all around actor” being able to not only act, but is willing to do his own stunts for the authenticity of the film, and help save the director a bit of money as well.

Drug Addled Thespian (2)
Owen doesn’t feel pain from the drugs he is taking and his tolerance for anything unnatural in his body is high requiring him to take more than the normal person. Downside is he needs his fix. Each day he goes without his fix he loses a D6 from any cliche.  Once any cliche reaches zero, his sole focus is getting a fix any way he can.  If a second cliche reaches zero, he passes out.

Master of Disguise  (1)
Being an actor he can quickly change roles and costumes to become who he needs to be. Failure means he resembles a cross dressing Bugs Bunny that only a nitwit could fall for.   If this cliche drops to zero as a result of his drug addiction, he actually gets +2d6 to the base role for seeking drugs only.
