[QUOTE="Eis, post: 8021438, member: 6801206"] I kind of just think of a cool concept and go with it I guess. I'm playing a dwarven samurai in a 3.5 game, a human storm sorcerer in a Tomb of Horrors short campaign, a half elf bard in our Ravnica campaign. I generally think of what class I want to play and then leaf through the races until something strikes me. I do tend to play heterosexual characters but it has almost never come up. There was a flirtation with an NPC in our Ravnica game but when she expected me to join her that very night in her bedroom I answered with a message cantrip telling her that patience was a virtue and I have literally never spoken to that NPC again In video games it varies, I played a dwarf in Dragon Age Inquisition and when it came time to define his look in character creation I was messing with all the settings and noticed that he looked badass as a black skinned dwarf so black he was (I am not black, nor am I a dwarf). Then when I restarted the game a second time I decided to play as a female character and she was pale with brown hair. I got to about the same point in that game both times and it is amusing to me that I realized that without even giving it any thought I chose the same romance options with both characters. It kind of irked me, not because I think it was wrong for either a black dwarf or a pale brown haired Inquisitor to romance Josephine but because I would have liked to have seen the other little side quest stories from romancing another NPC so I guess I do not have a type, even though I do like dwarves an awful lot, I didn't have any problem playing Aloy in Horizon Zero Dawn or what have you even though I am a 50 year old white cis male [/QUOTE]
