What are the last three things you've played.

I crit!
The 'last three purchases' thread I like, so in the spirit of intellectual thef... borrowing I give you the last three things you've played.

I played a pathfinder society event and my character was a fighter that swore to only do non-lethal damage. We defended the walls of a large city from a demon invasion and barely won the day.

I'm creating a 'Brain in a Jar' super in an Mutants and Masterminds 2nd ed game. He's Bubba Thotep the only Pharaoh to have his brain preserved in a unique clear crystal canopic jar of Thoth. He's a mystic wielder of the strange powers of the deep dark beyond the stars. His Was (a wand or rod symbolizing power) and Ank (the key to the Nile symbolizing life) slowly orbit his floating jar as he seeks out and dispatches evil.

I have a character in a Sword and Wizardry game that has been banished to the under-dark and now seeks his way to return to the surface world.

I played a soulfire slinging demonologist and occult bookstore owner, Saturday in a campaign that has been running since January. The character is becoming more badass, but is still a coward- he is just accepting that God is going to get him killed fighting demons or something else that someone else more qualified should fight.

I played in a homebrewed-to-hell-and-back Pathfinder game using 3 gms worlds. This involved parts of Dragonlance, Greyhawk, Forgotten Realms, WoW, StarTrek, Dark Sun, and some other stuff. I was a human ranger. He was cool, but the game was high level and I joined the game late which meant I was confused a lot. The party's lack of tactics bothered me too.

Before that I was in a Feng Shui game. I played the Old Master archetype with the entire Kung-Fu fire path known (can't remember name). He had awesome attacks and laser beam eyes. We once created a bonfire so that I could supercharge my chi so I could pull off a Darkseid style attack. It was awesome.
 

Well, I was at a gameday Saturday, and had a Star Wars game run Sunday, so...

Yesterday, I played SWSE, in which I'm a spacer kid (read - pilot and mechanic) turned Jedi trying to rebuild the Order after it got pasted in the Jedi Civil War, 5000 years or so before the movies.

Saturday I played in:

1) a Sertorius game (not yet published), in which I was an orc who got bitten in half by an air-shark early in the session. I then played a kobold sneaky-little-bastard and healer, who survived the session. Gotta love it when the kobold is the most eriudite and charismatic person in the party :)

2) A FATE Accelerated game, in which I was a young veteran Marine down on his luck who joined a dream-drug study for easy cash, and found himself dragged into a nightmare realm that turned out to be the land of faerie at some of its least kind...

(Next weekend, I get to play in a live-action game, portraying Porthos, of the Three Musketeers)
 

I played a peg-legged, half-orc pirate captain (summoner/bard) in the Skull and Shackles AP for Pathfinder just yesterday.

Just a few days before that, I played a human knight hired to kill a dragon in 3.5 D&D.

And a few weeks before that, I played an adaptation of Garrus Vakarian written up in Star Wars Saga Edition for a Mass Effect campaign.
 

The last game I played is Edge of the Empire out current weekly game.

Before that I have to go back to Origins for the last games I played in as I usually run. There I played Dungeon World which I was not a fan of and Call of Cthulhu which was a gimmick game based on Clue.

Oh that's good...

Let's see, most of my gaming over the past 2+ years has been in the form of running an AD&D campaign. The last PCs I've played would be:

Pathfinder: Kelisendaris Shantih par-Valen (female elf) - a middle-aged lesbian Wind Oracle athlete-turned-adventurer whose mid-life crisis consisted of discovering her reckless love of battle (and well-made Mimosas made by the campaign's BBEG).

Savage Worlds: Ambrosia Appleton, aka Amber Alert! (adolescent female human) - a chain-smoking 12 year old girl genius rocket engineer. She was frequently kidnapped by space pirates thanks to her engineering skills.

D&D 4e: Sir Yatagan Fracas (male Dragonborn) - a jolly rotund idiot of a paladin who worshiped a New Age-y dragon cult, a tiny god in a wooden box he kept in his codpiece, and a large pig (in precisely that order). Known for his "highly-eroticized labor propaganda" and palling around with the Communist dwarf.
