[QUOTE="Tonguez, post: 2924317, member: 1125"] My favourite character Orbril the Gnome* started life as a bumbling alchemist who had been politlely asked to leave the burrow because his experiments kept blowing things up. To begin with he was naieve, shy and very much afraid of the big wode world. His first adventure had him stowing away in the luggage of a noblewoman (another PC) who was going to the next kingdom to be married - he was caught of course thus beginning his career. Of course after capturing a herd of giant carniverous hamsters, fighting Yuan-ti zombies in a lost tomb, starting his own travelling circus, being tortured by bandits, riding a dragon, visiting a parralell dimension and saving the kingdom from alien invaders he is no longer naieve and uncool - but at the start he definitely was. Another character was an Pious but angst-ridden Half-giant cleric who was having a crisis of faith. He would spend most of his day in prayer or singing hymns and when he sopoke tended to give sermons or talk about the glory of his diety and his sorrow in the failings of the Church to keep the true doctrine. Eventually he join the rebel sect during a Church schism (that was eventually defeated) and then had to go into hiding lest his association with the rebels be discovered.(thats when he was retired) I also played a Half-Orc Vodoo priest (Cleric/Scorcerer) who was the Navigator of a Ship. That character was based on Woefully Fat (from Tim Powewrs [I]On Stranger Tides[/I]). He wasn't really uncool but he was from an oppressed minority in the setting (most orcs were kept as slaves) *[I]Gnomes in this campaign were 15 inches tall[/I] [/QUOTE]
