I don't plan on playing origins, DnD is all about making your own character and I don't want to play a premade.
Hmmmm. I don't think I've played any other games that were DnD. I've played other CRPGs, but I normally just pick an alignment. I've never gone as far as creating my own character with their own backstory. Is it fun? Can you describe your favorite character to me, and how their decisions may differ from your own?
I have a lot in our tabletop games.
Currently I play Mirabelle Layne, a forest gnome artificer. She is highly intelligent, but not really streetwise, she trusts everyone. She likes sparkly drinks with paper umbrellas and spicy noodles and is very into secrets and mysteries, whic hshe lieks to soleve. I downloaded the artificer mod and made her in BG3. Only the feytouched background I couldn't implement.
In Call of Cthulhu, I have a professor of anthropology, who is from Germany, but lives and works in Arkham in the 1920. He is very charming and open minded, but secretly a serial killer. I like him, he was my first evil character and surprisingly is still alive (in Cthulhu characters often die or get mad).
In Vampire the Masquerade I play Aladar, a Tzimisce elder, who was staked and slept for 100 years and woke up in the modern world and has to learn everything new. He became pact leader of a Sabbat pact and has a rivaltry with a Setite.
Another vampire character is a Malkavian. She is a musician and plays fiddle. She has visions and hallucinations and doesn't know, which is which. SHe is the party face, because she is well known in vampire etiquette.
Those are a few of my characters. The serial killer and the Tzimisce are totally against my own moral code of course
On computer I mostly play crpgs, where you can make your own character, like the old BG games, Dragon Age, Neverwinetr Nights, Tomb of Elemental Evil, KOTOR, Vampire teh Masquerade Bloodlines, Guild Wars, SWTOR...
