[QUOTE="Nazhkandrias, post: 3403000, member: 50521"] Making characters, most definitely. I've always been most fascinated in characters and character development, whether it be in books, movies (Hannibal Lecter from [I]Silence Of The Lambs[/I] is my favorite character of all time; I even have a character that was inspired by him - I can spend hours ranting on how Anthony Hopkins nailed the role), or D&D. Every character has a different story to tell, and a different role to fill. And let me tell you, NOTHING feels better than knowing that your character is an invaluable part of the party. I love it when the barbarian can't break the door, the wizard can't blast it away, the cleric isn't doing a thing, and my little rogue walks up and calmly picks the lock. High fives ensue. But I hate it when other people's characters end up like this - he has long, flowing hair; he's handsome, strong, and heroic; AND he has a DARK AND MYSTERIOUS PAST!!! Wow, I have NOT heard that before. Is it just me, or do way too many characters seem to look like Fabio with a DARK AND MYSTERIOUS PAST? Wow, can you say archetypal?
