I'll admit, I have never been in an RPG, but I want to join one sometime, except I'm a bit forgetful. Anyhoo, if I did join an RPG, I wouldn't want to be a shield-maiden or missing parents. Even though I have absolutely no knowledge in the areas, I have been trying my hand at writing some characters, and not one of them is a shield-maiden or missing parents, or perfect at using every weapon that comes to mind, or is perfect looking. I like the flaws in people personally, because they make a character interesting. Sure you can have a person who lost their parents at age twelve, but isn't someone who hates their parents with a passion more interesting? I also would like to play evil people because they can do things that many other people can't and get away with it. Well, sort of. Anyway, since I'm new to the RPG's, I think it would be best to start out as a girl.

Anyway, thanks for listening to the rants of an uneducated-about-RPG's person.
