Message: <blockquote data-quote="SnowleopardVK" data-source="post: 5634725" data-attributes="member: 6677945">I've had two characters that I really loved, even though both got pretty limited use.Ori Tenn, Half-Orc Barbarian: Ori was my first character ever, and I played her among three other new players and one with some experience. Ori was an ex pirate who managed to be the sole surviving member of her crew simply because she was rather unimportant to them. She was rather calm and collected for a barbarian and was (as the DM often joked) less prone to violent rage than our genocidal cleric. She was the only character, PC or NPC, that ever managed to befriend the party rogue, and she enjoyed using the sorcerer as a ball and kicking him across rooms (to be fair, he was gnome with an incredibly perverted personality. In other words easily kickable). She liked the sorcerer's replacement, the kobold that killed him, much better than the sorcerer himself. In our final session before the DM moved away (in which he told us that he'd be killing us all via paladin) she shoved the party leader, the too-cynical-for-his-own-good fighter, at the paladin and ran for it. She and the rogue actually got away successfully from an encounter that was supposed to TPK us all (five 3rd level PCs against a Paladin that was at least a 10th level, maybe higher), and the DM rewarded the two of us by saying that we went on to become successful pirates over the years.Sizemet Tardaker, Gillman Fighter: Sizemet (may he rest in peace) died recently and will soon be replaced by an elf ranger. Sizemet never did manage to get past first level, but he was apparently well liked by his teammates despite having only known them for a short time, and his death by skeleton (an unfortunate combination of a critical hit, high damage rolls on that hit, and bad timing) has caused some character development among them about caring more for the safety of their fellow party members. Sizemet was the unofficial leader of the party, he was a classic heroic good guy, and he united the group and drove them towards common goals. He cared enough about the lives of other people to always put himself between them and any enemy, even when he himself was already injured, but he also knew when he was beaten (which I think was his finest moment; leaping backwards off a ship to escape the skeletons that outnumbered him, knowing that because he had been separated from his party at the time he wasn't leaving any of them behind by doing so).</blockquote>
