Description: David Watts is the top student at school, the envy of many of his classmates, and is greatly desired by many of the local girls. However, his nature is such he’s virtually immune to the girl’s attempts to go out with him, concentrating instead on his school work. In addition, he’s apparently sports prodigy, having led the school’s team to victory and being named team captain. He’s also Head Boy at school, well manner, well liked, and greatly admired (aside from the aforementioned envious classmates).

David Watts comes from the song David Watts by The Kinks and appears on the 1967 album Something Else By The Kinks. I started with a Normal character sheet with all 8s and then added in elements from the Athlete Package Deal from Pulp Hero. He makes an excellent DNPC for a hero, or a possible target of some plot the PCs must disrupt. To make David Watts more powerful, increase his STR, DEX, CON, and EGO to 13 and give him either Boxing or Wrestling.
