Special Feature: Anonymous Sources (Once per game day, knows one piece of otherwise-unknown information that will help accomplish a task. For example, Paco's Jazz Club has a speakeasy hidden in the back, but unfortunately the password was changed this morning and none of the rest of the party know it. Luckily for everybody, XXXXX received that particular morsel of knowledge from an anonymous tipster earlier that day, and tells the muscle man that 'his wife has the DTs'. The tough obliges by opening the door, and the party is in!)
Class: Newspaper Magnate
Skills:
+ Newshound
+ Slander (published)

XXXXX is a butter and egg man if you've ever seen one. Maybe not the prime example, but this guy looks togged to the bricks as Rockafeller himself, and his attitude says people normally listen to him. What he's doin' in this gin joint you haven't the slightest, but you ain't snoopy enough to ask around until he flashes a roll of sawbucks the size of your fist. This guy might be worth dogging, if it means some of that cabbage floats your way.

New characters look good. Wouldn't be the 30's without a hobo and a Captain of Industry! I'll put up Jimmy now, and Tycoonpants pending Lethal's approval.
If you want to make a character and join later, Mage, that's fine with me. I think we've got just enough room for one more.
A couple of specifc notes:
Astatia - If you'd like, I'm willing to let you broaden your Dancing skill to Cabaret, so you'll also be able to sing and act, too. It's up to you, though. You might also want to consider a convincing-type skill to use in conjunction with your persuasion ability. Deception, Bribery/Seduction, or Argument might be good options.
LR, I'm going to say that you can use your "Business" Acumen to get around other parts of the underworld, too, not just those associated with larger organizations. You are not allowed to change the name of the skill, however.

If you did that, I'd pick up Newshound again, to help recover some of your information-gathering capabilities.
A thing to consider!
