[QUOTE="FnordBear, post: 3535598, member: 15897"] I have always like the idea of "translating" characters too rather than directly converting to a system so I would like to chime in with: The Characters from the Darksword Novels. The Characters, especially Haplo and Alfred, from the Deathgate novels. The Shanarra characters (the dragon mag article was good but needs a 3.5 update) Thomas Covenant, Lord Fouls, Morhan, Avery Linden, and Saltheart Foamfollower are dittoed. Horseclans! I need Bili the Axe and Prairecats! I know this series gets a lot of hate but....The characters from the Sword of Truth series. A Dungeons and Dragons translation of (IE not a new system written around), the Wheel of Time. Jules Verne characters, especially Captian Nemo and the Nautilis. Eragon. Seconding Elric, the D20 Melnibone book was nice but I would like a 3.5 update/translation. Again gets lots of hate but....Xanth...especially the first 3 novels before it got really silly*ducks* The characters and magic from The Mirror of Her Dreams from Donaldson. Characters from the Chronicles of the Chaticist(sp?) series by Alan Dean Foster. And though it seems silly...I would like to see a translation of a Dashing Swashbuckler captian with his elven wizard first officer, his dwarven chief artificer, his old country healer, and the rest of his colorful crew on the air-ship Enterprise as they explore strange new lands, seek out new peoples, and boldly go where no adventurer has gone before and returned to tell the tale.
