After thinking about all the classes, I think I would either be a ranger or a druid. Beastmaster and Avenger for kits. I like natural settings.

I would prefer to use monk, because it is fun to kick your opponents ass and my favriot sport is kick boxing.

I would have to be a swashbuckler
I fence and have an ego a hundred times the size of Amn.

I would be one of the commoners you bump into in a city.

Hah-Ironbeard. I like your style.

I think that I would be a mage/thief. The result of an intense interest in the arcane, and a mispent youth.

I'd be a Cleric. I like maces and flails, plus the spells are cool, there's a combat side and a scholastic side and that fits me perfect.

I'd like to be a new type of character that detects cheaters and blasts 'em with "format c:".

I would like to be a son of Boo and have 25 in all stats and alsohave five prof points in each weapon, all spells and a kick ass AC.

I always play as an Archer because it is great to play as a ranger with a very good weapon prof

actually if i was the desendant of Boo i would have to be called...........Poo.

And just how would you hold a bow?
Unless you are in giant hamster shape maybe :D

I would definately be a mage. Love magic users and would love to scorch some people with a good fire ball!

Id be one of those irritating guys in the temple of oghma who say "wisdom is only possessed by the learned..."

The best character is definately a nobleman.
Use the Shadowkeeper to change Your Icon into a nobleman/woman. And find all the soundfiles in Bg that are spoken by noblemen/women.
AwAyyy With Youuh Begga'
Stand wer'u AT!
and so on.

Just kidding. Its a fun diversion to play a fighter/mage/thief and try completing the game on Your own. I just use most spells on defensive maneuvers. I spent most money on healing potions untill I stole kangaxx ring and run like hell out of the room, watching him imprison my summoned creatures :)
If You remove the xp-cap it shouldnt be much of a problem, to bash Your way out of the shadows of Amn.

Catch You on a flipside

Ironbeard no way, you'd be one of the (short) people you bump into in the pub's in the city having too many beers with me!

Ironbeard
Tue, 8th May '01, 11:03pm
Well a dwarven commoner then, maybe Cromwell's missing apprentice. "Oi need a swoid or some strrong Dwarrven Ale!"

Well, I for one would be running one of the fine brothels in the city. People can never get enough of that good, clean family entertainment you know. :p

I would like to be a sorcerer. It is my favorite magic user, also awesome! :D

Ragusa
Wed, 9th May '01, 12:43pm
Mage-thief would be my choice, possibly even a gnomish illusionist-thief. Short people are cool. Come on Ironbeard, letīs go for some pints of dwarven ale ... and found the association of the rights of the short people in Faerun ...

And donīt forget to bring your demands with you ;)

I think i would be Kensai/Mage. Yes i know that is not too individual, but there's something in this character what fascinates me.

I'd have to be a paladin, no doubt about it. Passion for making wrongs right, that's me.

Shrike00
Fri, 11th May '01, 8:42pm
I'd be a straight-up kensai. I love the idea of a "sword saint" although I'd pick a different weapon. I kinda like the idea of a "halbred saint". Has a cool ring to it huh?

I would love to be a mage. Set some poeple on fire, or just power word:silence some teachers and turn some people into squrriels.

Sat, 12th May '01, 6:15pm
A skald, I guess. (I suppose I should be trying to follow in the footsteps of me forefathers and their fathers, yes?)

Either that or a Spectator Beholder, or something. (I tend to be summoned by people to do "very important, very urgent" tasks, but end up waiting endlessly for something to actually happen when I get there)

jack-of-all-trades
Sat, 12th May '01, 8:47pm
i would be a sorcerer/fighter if i had my way with things. i dunno, i'd probably stun 'em and then kick thier asses.

Have you tried this one;make an ordinary fighter/mage(dual-classed of course)and use Shadow-Keeper to change character looks to mage. It looks awesome when man with mage robe swings two katanas. You might know this, but those who didn't, do this!

Da Punisher
Sun, 13th May '01, 7:29pm
I don't use ShadowKeeper...
I think I would be a Kensai, hack 'n slash my way to the big bad guy, leading the enemy army, killing him with one of those weird moves, like "sunrise meets moonblade on the water" 'n stuff. (If you read Robert Jordan's: Wheel of Time, you understand what I mean, if you didn't: don't bother...)

Hey, Ironbeard. Aren't the dwarves saying, "I need a swig of some strong, dwarven ale". - ???

As I said in another thread, I'd be a battle cleric - weilding an axe. Too bad they aren't allowed to weild axes... I'm too chaotic to be a paladin.

Mon, 14th May '01, 3:53pm
I'd be one of the guys in Haer'dalis theater, cause we would get around the most..

i could be the assassin, but that's just me...watch ur back ppl

Ironbeard
Fri, 18th May '01, 8:54pm
The wise, the grey, that would make a lot more sense....have to play the game with subtitles, because I keeb mishearing things.

Fri, 18th May '01, 10:41pm
A hacked character.

Purely for my own safety and well being.

Capstone

If we were talking about what would actually reflect my real life character, I would end up being a gnomish cleric. Does 3E have gnomish tinkerers? That would fit my mentality even better...

Vicsun
Sat, 19th May '01, 2:19pm
I would probably be a thief of some sort :D

Yeah the monks great ( i got bbelt in taekwondo) but his face looks like hes been hit in the face with the scullcrusher. i saw a shadow thief do a great roundhouse!

Man obviously a blade. Offensive spin kicks ass. Just go in there slash run away slash run away etc.

Tue, 22nd May '01, 8:25pm
I would be a fighter/mage/cleric/thief/bard/monk ....

I am afterall a jack of all trades, master of none.

Extremist
Tue, 22nd May '01, 8:40pm
I like that name.

Shrike, have you read "Hyperion"? http://www.pixelplanet.com/Books/hyperion.htm

This is a kick**s book (SF) - read it and you'll want to be Shrike from that book.

There is no specific Tinkerer class or kit yet that I know of, but ...

The Rogue class gets all kinds of skill points that they can spend on almost anything they want (not just thieving skills), so it is easy to imagine a gnomish rogue with lots of points in knowledge, engineering and craft, tinker for example. (The DM would have to come up with rules to fit these particular skills, a would think an Int based roll to design an object, and a dex based roll to create it.) With a creative DM one could play a very interesting character that way.

Well, I must say I'm very keen on magic, so I would probably be a dusty old wizard, sitting with my drink that has that extra kick o' magic in it :D and read some ancient prophecy...

Ta'al
Sun, 27th May '01, 6:57pm
I'd be either a Kensai (I do Kendo), a monk (I also do Akido) or a Sorceror (cause that would be kewl) Definately be an elf (who wouldn't want to live that long, see in the dark and have pointy ears?)
