Ron Blessing and I have started a series of blog posts on random character generation. I did one for Marvel Heroic Roleplaying, he's doing one for Icons, then we are going to talk about some of the things random characters bring to the table in supers games.

Random supers generation has a long pedigree, going back to Villains & Vigilantes and most famously the original Marvel Superheroes. What are some of the things you like or dislike about random character generation specifically in the context of superheroes?

I love random character generation, but I don't have much time for Superheroes as a genre - sorry!
