In fantasy rpg i usually play a Dwarf. I love those rowdy lil' bastards.
My charecters are usually the silent huge kind that dont usually vare if what they do is wrong or right. In fallout i used a shotgun as long it was possible without losing the fights. I really like shotguns.

Anyone ever use the name of famous actors, authors, people from the past for character names? I usually do because I'm not very good at making names, and it becomes kinda interesting.

when i played adnd, i used a bard, and named him like axl rose, but i changed rose for my name spelled backwards, so that's the origin of my nick

Never really thought about it.

Now that I do though I think I almost always make a neutral type "I don't care" character but always end up helping everyone and becoming the savior of some city/country/faction..

Guess you can't shake your nature, heh.

I pick names that have a double or triple meaning (OMG telling names), or use unchanged/ slightly changed mythological names

- Lazarus for a character designed in a way that he just wouldn't lie down, no matter what was thrown at him

- Yale for a guard/ emissary of a temple of wisdom

- Thompson for a modern day gangster

I usually call them after things, like clock, hands, book.

Very imaginative. Sometimes I put Dr., Mr. or Mrs. in front of it too. Very Kubrick.

So I'm not the only one who does that?! How many Mr.Cuppo Coffee did you make by now?
