"Go to the sign of Marvel's Axe, a dubious inn on the edge of the Thieves Quarter, in the City of Greyhawk, and look to your own wrist. If you perceive a bracelet and dangling dice, watch for the next throw in the war between Law and Chaos and be prepared to follow the compelling geas." -Signal

Central Casting: Heroes of Legend (First Edition) (1988)

From the back cover:

Central Casting: Heroes of Legend

A Character Creation System -A Roleplaying aid for all Fantasy Roleplaying Systems

Until now, beginning heroes have been flat, lusterless characters with no sense of history or depth of personality. A warrior was a fighting machine, a wizard provided heavy artillery, a thief acted as a mobile lock pick, and an elf just had point ears.

With Central Casting: Heroes of Legend, characters take on lives of their own. They gain families, friends, enemies, personalities, detailed past histories, and most importantly- gain motivations for life and adventuring.

 From the web:

A generic game aid for use with any fantasy role-play game. Creates detailed character histories using dice tables. Includes role-play hints, game play benefits and guidelines for fitting skills into any roleplay rules system.
