and a grand total of zero characters with amnesia
Thanks Meoshi, I know who that's directed at. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Perhaps there is just something universal about these types of characters, and I believe, if they are played well, they work. However yes, it is annoying that most people seem to want to play characters of that nature, and yes, I agree that sometimes it isn't very heathy for our good role-playing forums. They're probably the easiest to play as well, as they are problems are so easily defined, so people without much experience like them. The thing is, played well they can have tons of depth and make very good characters. So, to stop rambling, I'll say this: All the types of character above are great, just if you have three of them in game it becomes a chiche, but plague? Nah. Remember, if I'm not mistaken roleplaying is about taking a setting and making it your own, so if things go a little off Tolkien it's probably ok. New stories are better then newer versions of the same one. And yah, I think things get more original in Rohan if the Shire's repeated storylines displease you. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
