Charismatic Character: The Shaman

If I were shaman (shawoman), I would just mess with the villagers. I'd tell them to smear poo on their noses to keep evil spirits away, then watch them walk around all day gagging. I'd do my face makeup like a member of Kiss. I'd tell them the only way to please the sun god is to bring me tasty snacks.

And I'd have my pick of the dirty cave men. Wait, scratch that last one.

Bill Hader gave us an unforgettable portrayal of a tribal shaman. And he gives us some real insight into the thought patterns of such a person. Poor guy... he really just wants to have a nap.
