I am just curious about this one- obviously also inspired by the current conversations. Do your human pcs tend to look like you? Do they usually match your ethnicity, sex, gender, and sexual preference? How often do you play characters who don't?
Speak for yourself, my details are fully functional. You have my sympathies though.I randomize my PCs when it comes to non-functional details.
Presumably this is a roleplaying game.While I play a variety of races I never play female characters, I've just never really seen the point.
.It's weird how often I play character smaller than I am-- I'm just a hair under average height for an American man, a couple inches shorter than my father was, but I'm built like a tank. Most of my human characters are a couple of inches shorter than me, and not much more than half my weight.
Given a choice, I'd be bigger. Of course, given a choice I'd also be darker, and have straight black hair.
