Four Favorite RPG Characters you played:Daphinas, Bluebolt, Chill, Akalon
Sevens
This came out a week or so ago, and Hythian tagged me for it, then Doyce did as well. I don’t like this one as well as the Fours, but…
Too many favorite foods to keep track of (esp. with only “four” allowed), but perusing recent lists I’d have to add chili fries, osso bucco, garlic bread, lemon squares, chocolate chip cookies, snickerdoodles, and cinnamon rolls to the list.
Favorite RPG (offline) characters for me? Hmmm. Keeping it to four: Morrigan (Kurt’s Amber game), Punishment (Doyce’s Nobilis game), Graeme (Sarah’s Amber PBEM), Aladris (Scott’s Amber PBEM).
I did it, but you’ll have to visit my site to see it!
Yay, Ted!
Hmm, yours had more options than the one I found over on Jaquandor’s site. Time to spruce mine up!
