RPG Characters
A journal I happened across had a meme-ish thing that I actually found interesting. What RPG characters have you played, what's a common theme with them, and do you think that theme says anything about you? Thinking about this made me realize how much gaming I've done over the past half-decade or so.
* Jace - Star Wars RPG, J9 worker droid. Scout, tech, and hand to hand combat.
* ??? - D&D, a dwarf whose name I've forgotten. Druid/wizard.
* Yokai - Shadowrun(cyberpunk), shy troll hacker/technician of Japanese ancestry
* Beswick - Star Wars, bith (cantina musicians from A New Hope) Jedi
* Dr. Wolfgang Sartorius Von Waltershausen - Deadlands(wild west + cthuian horror), German mad scientist and rapier duelist
* Vreln - D&D, dwarf trained in ancient elven fighting and magic techniques
The common theme seems to be people from outside the dominant race/culture, who don't fit the stereotype of their home culture. (Okay, except Wolfgang.) This seems to fit with the few characters floating around in my head I want to play in the future
* Goldilocks - D&D 3.5, burly male half-orc rogue with pretty blond hair
* ??? - D&D 4, halfing paladin of the Raven Queen
* Dranel'liss - Star Wars, Twi'lek (twin head tentacle guys, like Jabba's assistant) Bantha Hunter (not TOO Steve Irwin)
As for what it might mean? Not really sure. They've all been competant individualists, pretty much, which is something I aim for. Feel free to comment, perpetuate the meme, or ignore it.
