Now this is hard. I have really enjoyed every character I’ve played, as far as I can remember. Johin, Mogo, Alarum, Martel, Kuraileon, Robin, Arken, William, Jonathan…. I’ve really enjoyed all of them. As I think back though, there was one which was my least favourite.
Just like this guy... only not awesome. |
It was back in a time when I tried forum-based RPGs, and played a few games which all failed quite quickly. I don’t remember this character’s name, but for a very short lived campaign I created a Halfling Psion Pyrokineticist – so a flame wielding psion. I took a bit of an overused trope though and made him have a split personality. I’m currently in a party where three of the characters have another voice in their heads, but that’s from two psicrystals and a demon-possession. So totally legitimate. This guy had an arsonist inside, who would come out in battle and make him pretty nasty. The character was flawed, annoying to use, and relied on a few too many tropes. Not that I’m against references, but this guy was just a fiery little killing machine. That can be fun, but it’s not really my style. I don’t think I’d play him again, whatever his name was.
