Character Meme
1) Name your current characters and which system they are in.
Zeke: D&D (World's Largest Dungeon)
Adriana: D&D (Heroes of Battle)
(they both have surnames, but I'll be damned if I can remember them)
2) What is their race, their role and their best and worst traits?
Races: both human
Roles:
Zeke: primary actor in the "Door procedure", expert at disabling locks and traps.
Adriana: ranged assault, especially against evil arcane spellcasters. Also a scout.
Best Traits:
Zeke: loyal to his friends.
Adriana: believes in goodness and freedom, and kicks evil's ass.
Worst Traits:
Zeke: self-involved and cowardly, as well as impatient.
Adriana: a little too emotional and not logical enough. Perhaps too flexible, except where evil wizards are concerned, when she becomes very inflexible.
3) Which do you find the hardest to play and why?
Zeke: he has a complex and subtle backstory that doesn't gel well with the premise of the game, and he's a coward, which is totally against my usual style of play.
4) Which do you find the easiest to play and why?
Adriana: she's straightforward in her convictions and personality. Although the numbers side of things is horrendously complicated!
5) Which is the most enjoyable to play and why?
Hard to say, when we have a good session then they're both equally fun. Adriana is hard work if she comes up against Inquisitor Krath, but Zeke doesn't get much time to develop his personality (too much moping is not fun!).
6) Which would you say is the best character?
Adriana, because she's consistent. She's also nails.
7) Which would you say is the worst character?
Zeke because I find him difficult to roleplay; cowardly is not my usual style, and I wanted to go for a moody emo thing but I haven't really been able to pull it off. That said, if recent sessions are a guide then I'm beginning to get a handle on him and I think he'll start to come into his own a bit more, especially if we bump into the Plot.
It's a little much for just two characters!
