[QUOTE="ccs, post: 8020357, member: 6803664"] [B]Do your human pcs tend to look like you?[/B] No. Most are younger. All are better looking, & in much better shape than I'm in (or have ever been). Those who're older are along the lines of what I wish I'd look like, but will not achieve - for starters not of them are balding. [B]Do they usually match your; ethnicity: [/B]Yes, assuming "some degree of Caucasian" counts. [B]sex:[/B] Yes - Other than when DMing I've never made a female human. [B]gender: [/B]Yes [B]sexual preference: [/B] Yes [B]How often do you play characters who don't? Feel free to include non-D&D human characters in your discussion.[/B] Other than when DMing, in this century, I've only got 3.5* Female characters of any type in any system. 2 Halflings (a Warlock & a Barbarian), 1 Tiefling (a PF Divination Wizard), & 1 1/2elf(?) Sorcerer(?)Warlock(?)Sorlock(?)* All 4 are female hetero. The 1/2elf only counts as .5 of a character atm because she's a concept waiting for the right D&D/PF game. Mechanically she's a 1/2elf but doesn't have stats yet & her class isn't set beyond [I]"[U]caster[/U], not a Cleric/Druid/Wizard"[/I]. Sorcerer will probably end up the best fit. The hard parts done though - I know who this character is, what makes them tick, & (generically) why they've taken up the adventuring life. I even have a mini. :) The last 5 characters I've played; Current - Bree Burrfoot: Female Halfling chainpact Warlock 5e (or Summoner in PF1). Caucasian. Hetero (though NA) Current - Jack'son: Male Human Rogue. Caucasian, Hetero (though it's not likely to matter) Zarbag: Male Goblin Sorcerer (PF2). Green skin & based on Night Goblins/Moon Clan Gitz from Warhammer if that means anything to you. Hetero, but it never came up. Gojira: Male Dragonborn Paladin (5e). Green DB, though he breathed fire. Hetero, but NA Karzouk, the Almighty: Male 1/2elf (mechanically) Transmutation Wizard (5e/PF). Varisian, so Caucasian-[I]ish[/I]. Played as though he were a human. Hetero, though it never came up.
