    Well GM engagement is supposed to be a big part of GURPS/HERO chargen, to make sure that nonfunctional or inappropriate characters dont happen unless part of the campaign tone is supposed to be having fun with that.

      Yeah, I think that’s generally the case (though not explicitly stated). Writing the basics of everyone’s characters should be a group effort, with some amount of buy-in from each player for each character. The idea of 4 completely independently written characters coming on the same adventure is… It feels archaic, like we’re all playing weekly D&D with completely different people and everyone has different amounts of XP etc.
