Pregenerated Characters

It occurred to me the other day that I've never provided pregenerated characters for the various adventures on the blog, so here they are. When I'm running games at conventions, I generally use archetypes instead of fully developed characters; they provide all of the necessary game mechanics, but allow the players to develop the character's personalities and other descriptive information.
