Guys that stand for good, fight overwhelming odds, beat up the bad guys, and all that stuff.But as a player, after 5, 10, 15 or 20 years, it's "been there, done that". You want something different. Maybe someone conflicted. Maybe you are just tired of being always the hero and doing things because they are right and jumping through the hoops of being good instead of doing just what's convenient. Sometimes you don't want to be the wide-eyed guy believing that there is good in people, they are all worth saving, except the purely bad guys. I must admit that I still prefer that wide-eyed guy. I want to fight for all that is good and holy. But sometimes its interesting to be someone different. Someone that does things because he wants to achieve a personal goal. Like my Kobold Sorcerer that wanted Kobolds to rise to power. But there is only so much I can take of this, though. Heroes aren't gone. They are just not the only archetype people enjoy playing. Sometimes you want to try something different. And that is a good thing, because it reminds you what is so special and satisfying about being a hero.</blockquote>
