I've been playing an early 50's reluctant witchhunter in my friends 5e game. I have a long list of contacts and notoriety as well as infamy. But I also get weezy running up stairs. I think there are numerous movies of the old salt as a great example to "mine from". Quint from JAWS comes to mind first!

Nice. "I think I'll stop here and set up an ambush. You guys drive the witch this way. After about ten minutes. Need to catch my breath."
Yeah, Jaws is a great example. As are the later westerns of John Wayne and Clint Eastwood.

I have a concept for a old, frail wizard (Con is my dump stat) teaming up with a strapping young character, who carries him around. Like a D&D Master Blaster.
