So, I picked up the Jumpstart for Scion 2E, and I plan to try to run it for folks on here.

It's a quickstart game, so it uses the pregenerated characters Hassan Al-Hakim, Sigrun Askrdottir, Rashmi Bhattacharya, Rhiannon Jernigan, and Emanuel Montero.  (Eric Donner didn't make the cut, apparently.)  The writeups are slightly different that I've got than are presented in Hero (Sigrun apparently never gets a full rundown in Hero beyond the example creation) but it'll give people understanding of the characters if they want.  I'm not sure if I have the legal okay to post all the characters here for everyone to read, so, best not to do that.

At 41 pages including the covers, it doesn't look like the story will be exceptionally long, but it'll at least give the opportunity for folks to try out the system and see how things go.

Who all will be interested, and if you have a preferred character to play, which one?  I'm not guaranteeing first come first serve, but it'll help know what folks think and if I can give this a decent shot.

I've read it already unfortunately but I'll be lurking. Good luck.
Savage worlds, proving it is entirely possible for someone with no skill in driving to pilot everything from a dune buggy to a flying submarine without failing once but the guy with a d8 in it is the one the other PCs don't let touch the steering wheel.

I'd give it a go. I know of it, but haven't read it. What are the pre gen characters like?

Most of them are similar, if not identical, to the ones on page 174 on for Scion Hero 2E.  Page 182 talks about Sigrun but doesn't give the same kind of writeup.  Eric Donner is on page 172 of Hero 2E but doesn't come up as an option in the jumpstart.
