Sheikah Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 I think I'd be like Kuja. I'd have the ability to mass obliterate a planet, but then die really quickly. Burn brightly, extinguish quickly. Aww yeah.
Paj! Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 I'd be one of those extraneous characters you occasionally use in RPGs, but aren't essential. Like Zelos in Tales of Symphonia, when you'd prefer to just use Kratos and win.
Pookiablo Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 I'd be Ness without a shadow of a doubt. Baseball hat (and bat) included.
Emasher Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 You anger me. I have a little thing for Colette personally I really didn't mind much. Although, that may have been because I was 12 when I played the game first.
gaggle64 Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 I'd be that bookish wizard-boy character you pick up about a third of the way through and joins you on your quest but has absolutely no storyline of his own to speak of. You know, that guy you had to buy the strategy guide just to get him stop dying all the time before he could do anything useful. Eventually you just lump all your healing spells with him for conveniences sake. Was probably getting inappropriately touched by his mentor/uncle before you turned up.
Ashley Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 I'd be the one who made the RPG. The all-knowing, all-powerful ruler. Or at least the delusional guy who thinks he is.

So, basically every mage in fire emblem ever?
Iun Posted August 7, 2009 Posted August 7, 2009 Probably the Elf from Heroquest, one magic specialty and a big sword. Balanced, but still pretty strong. Magic specialty would have to be Illusion from the Elder Scrolls series - night eye, light, invisibility, chameleon, charm and provoke (or whatever it was called). I like playing a good character, or a magnified version of my own personality: quick to remedy any injustice.
Ten10 Posted August 7, 2009 Posted August 7, 2009 I'd just opt to be of the magic swordsman class. Hack stuff up with a sword, and if things get toO hot I'll just make you BURN TO OBLIVION!!!!!!
gaggle64 Posted August 7, 2009 Posted August 7, 2009 So, basically every mage in fire emblem ever? Essentially. See also: Tales of "X" games.
Ellmeister Posted August 7, 2009 Posted August 7, 2009 I'd be Tidus, just because he gets to play Blitzball! He also seems to be able to hold his breath underwater for 5 minutes whilst doing amazing moves. He also gets sweet swords.

Kirkatronics Posted August 7, 2009 Posted August 7, 2009 I think i would be one of the bigger, slower characters. The really powerful ones, which are easy to dodge but you dont even dent them for hours.
Letty Posted August 7, 2009 Posted August 7, 2009 Definetly Necromancer - badass health stealing/resurrecting enemies as zombies etc, plus an awesome leather costume!!
Sheikah Posted August 7, 2009 Posted August 7, 2009 I think i would be one of the bigger, slower characters.The really powerful ones, which are easy to dodge but you dont even dent them for hours. Yeah, but those guys tend to be really stupid. Wait... :P

So, basically every mage in fire emblem ever? Essentially. See also: Tales of "X" games. STFU! Fire Emblem mages pwn j00! Speaking of Fire Emblem, I'd be the tactician for Tactic RPGs. Even for the games that don't have one as a character. If I was a villan, I'd be that recurring boss that consistently tries to defeat the hero, only to be shot down at every turn (though giving good experience to the hero). In other words, Jr. Troopa from Paper Mario.
rizz Posted August 7, 2009 Posted August 7, 2009 If we are basing it on personalities and life skills, experiences and such, I would determine myself to be a Mage. A mere clothie, he has taken many a beating and found much ill fortune. He has waited long and hard to build power, where others parade it around not knowing it's worth. Considered wise by others, but really has as little clue as they do. Calm and reserved. Poeple don't fuck about because they know they'll have a motherfucking blizzard on their hands.
Fierce_LiNk Posted August 7, 2009 Posted August 7, 2009 If I were in a game, I would love to have an amaaazing twist, where I help the main character throughout...but at the last minute it is revealed that I am infact the villain of the game. It would kinda be similar to Trevelyan/Sean Bean's twist in Goldeneye, hehe. Playing villains just seems more fun. My ability would be the ability to confuse your enemies, so that their attacks hurt themselves. Mindfuck! Yeeees. It's kinda like the Confusion Pokemon move. Actually...it is the Confusion Pokemon move! Either that, or I would be Frog from Chrono Trigger. Broadsword plus other coool swords, but I think he has tremendous courage.
Rummy Posted August 8, 2009 Posted August 8, 2009 Why has ReZ not posted in his own damn thread? As for me, I'm still undecided, as I'm not massively into RPGs even though I've played a few, but they're all a bit...varied really. To approximate to characters I can think of, maybe that Kimari dude from the only FF game I've actually played. Only less blue and furry. I'd be that strange fellow you pick up in a bar with a mysterious past, not much of a magic user if at all, but loyal and good at what I do, with some element of a beserker side, and in things on my own agenda, but in a good and moral way(ie not me over you). Either that or I'd be that total spaz who's really useless, except for like 2/3 times in the whole game when I'm massively helpful by accident, or something. Kinda like how I imagine Luigi, I'd be Luigi.
Blue_Ninja0 Posted August 8, 2009 Posted August 8, 2009 Can I be that character that always blocks that square you need to pass by because the hero hasn't met a certain condition even though the hero could just punch me out of the way?
S.C.G Posted August 8, 2009 Posted August 8, 2009 Can I be that character that always blocks that square you need to pass by because the hero hasn't met a certain condition even though the hero could just punch me out of the way? 'You shall not pass!... wait is that a sword? ah shi... go on then.'
Blue_Ninja0 Posted August 8, 2009 Posted August 8, 2009 ^ lol exactly, except Nintendo inovates everywhere. That was an arch you couldn't pass, instead of a square.
Zell Posted August 8, 2009 Posted August 8, 2009 I'd be a knight, except I'd have a cricket bat instead of a sword and pads instead of armour. I'd drink tea to restore HP and lager to restore MP. My special abilities would include "drinks break" and "tea break".
