Extra characters for our games
Sometimes you have too many guests and you need more characters. We do provide a character whom you can add to each of our games ('Ginger' Roberts), and some of our games have packets of extra characters...
But sometimes that's not enough. So some of our customers have created their own characters for their parties and are kindly willing to share them.
Please note that we haven't tested these and they may not tie in exactly with our games.
You can view the character file by clicking on its main link below. These versions here have been censored so they don't betray oany of the game's secrets. IMPORTANT -- if you've bought the game, you can download the uncensored versions of these characters from the download page where you got your main game files. Contact us if you need the link and password for that page.

Create your own extra characters
We have also provided a template so that you can write your own additional characters.
- Click here to download the template in MS Word format
- Click here to download the template in Open Office format
Steve's written two great articles (here and here) about how to create extra characters for games like ours.
Submit your own character
If you have written your own characters and would like us to include them here, please first download the template and use it to create your character. Then tell us about it using our contact form. (And if you've created other handouts or aids and would like us to share them, please send them as well.)
Please don't send us anything that infringes on anybody else's copyright property. For example, while Captain Jack Sparrow and Will Turner (from Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl) might be obvious characters to add to A Dead Man's Chest, I'm afraid we cannot use them.
When you email us your characters (or other handouts), you agree that:
- All such documents become property (and copyright) of Freeform Games LLP although we will credit you.
- We reserve the right to use the documents in future releases.
- We will edit the files and make sure that they do not give away our games' secrets. We will also edit out any offensive content.
- We reserve the right not to post them on our website if we deem them unacceptable or for any other reason.
Those files that we do upload will receive a free game of their choice.
