Okay, here's the deal. Put your creative caps on.
I want you, the gamer, to take all of your gaming skills and put them together into a fictional character that represents yourself. Personify your gaming side. The character can be anything you want. It doesn't have to coincide with only one genre, nor does it have to be specific to one series or anything of the sort. The idea is that I want you to pull from all games you play and make a character out of them.
As a role player, I end up profiling a lot into one character, and therefore I like a lot of detail. However, I'm not asking you to write a ten thousand word essay on your character. I just don't want it to be a barely thought-out one that amounts to a single clause and a half. But! Don't be afraid to put a lot into it. Please, please, please don't think that putting a ton of stuff will discourage me from reading. If that's what's holding you back, let me slap it out of you right now. If you have a lot to put in, by all means. Mine is gigantic. I've played a lot of games. =P If your character design has more in it than mine, you might just win some kind of prize.
So, the objective here is... somewhat difficult to explain adequately, so let me just ask a bunch of questions that will (hopefully) get your creative juices flowing.
First, the basics. Name? Age? What color is your hair and eyes? How tall? Male or female? The character's gender doesn't even have to match yours! Go with whatever best personifies the gamer in you. Are you a sharpshooter? A sniper? Can you wield a sword? Do you like swords over guns, or vice versa? Do you like to explore? Where? Wide open worlds? Caves? Tombs? Are you a fighter? What fighting style are you well-versed in? What kind of title do you carry, if any? "Dragonslayer"? Are you part of a clan of some sort? In the military? Are you a general of an army? Of Hell's legions? Do you have access to highly advanced technology? Is it a tool you use; or is it part of you? Can you wield magic? How do you dress? Where do you come from? What do you fight for? What lies in your soul?
The idea is for you to use references from the games you play as attributes for your character. Let's say, for example, that I play Call of Duty: Black Ops, Metroid Other M and the Prince of Persia. Maybe I am a skilled marksman with my arm-mounted cannon that replaced my right arm that I lost in the war for my country of [imaginary country name here (or Persia, if you wanted to be that direct; it doesn't matter)]. It doesn't have to even look like that. You can change it around, make it your own. Since you would obviously have more knowledge about the games you play than I do about the three that I picked (as I have never played any of those three games for more than ten minutes), I would hope there would be a lot more in it than just that. Can you see where I'm going with this?
With that said, I want you to tell me: Who are you, gamer?

my name is Fayorii, and I'm nearing my 18th name day, I have strawberry blonde hair and ice blue eyes. I'm very short for a female of my race, barely even hitting 5 feet. My attire consists of slightly baggy pants tucked into knee high sturdy boots and a laced up leather bodice over a linen short sleeved shirt. I have a good eye and most always hit what I'm aiming at, however i loathe guns and war with other humanoids, however aliens (covenant stressed ) and other foul creatures of the dark are fair game. My main weapon is a longbow and my fall back plan is the pair of short swords at my side. I would rather pick off my enemies from a distance on a horse though since i am horrifically clumsy up close. That way i can run away if i need to, relying on speed and aim more than physical strength. I love to explore and meet new people. I'm the type of person that opens every treasure chest and overturns every rock to find awesome stuff. I'm a hothead and cant stand jeering of any sort so when someone eggs me on i hunt them down. I claim no titles though i am sure i have many. I am part of a "family" but we are scattered now. High tech stuff scares me, I've seen too many people die from it. i would rather use my rudimentary magic, even though i still cant control it all of the way. I come from the village of Ix, home of the conjurers but i ran away because i didn't want to study magic. I want to find my "family" and if i have to fight entire legions of shadows to do it then so be it. In my soul i feel as if i am the hope of the people i love, so i cannot and will not fail.
wow...that was uber fun to write. heart

Ageless and timeless, I'm a constant in the universe. I prefer older styles of fighting, and wield powerful magicks. I've been called many names, but none of them stick for long. I'll assist anyone who needs it, but once I'm done helping them, I won't stay, I'll to somewhere, or somewhen. My favored weapon is this cane I carry, it becomes whatever I need, whether it be a longsword, a scythe, a pistol, and assault rifle, or the like. I like nice quiet, dark places, unfortunately with all the traveling I do, I don't get much of that. I may not look like much, as a matter of fact, when not disguised to suit where and when I am, I don't look like much besides an inky black silhouette. Sometimes, I'll even pop in to test a group of heroes, as a battle that stacks the odds against them. I am everything, but I'm nothing, at the same time.

Good good.
Both of these posts are good, but I have a question or two.
Fayorii, I assume you are human, but the way you've worded your description, I'm not completely certain. Are you?
Mr. Ocelot, why do you travel so often?

i did that just for you sempai! I knew you would catch it. I'm a forest sprite. No not the little zippy silly things, the tall graceful forest people that are constantly butting heads with the resident elves.

Name: Alexander Roe, Mr Roe to you.
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Location: A wanderer
Appearance: I have charcoal black eyes with snow white hair. My hair reach my neck and I usually have it in a pony tail. I am about 1.6 meters long and weight about 65kg. I am not buff or muscular. I wear a a full black suit that helps me camouflage into the night.
Fighting Style: I am very much a long range fighter, I prefer a good set of dual pistol to rain hell down on my foes. I am fast and agile which makes dodging as easy as breathing. When foes are to close I switch to set of dual swords or daggers raining down a flurry of swipes that are not easily blocked. I am well trained in the arts of stealth, I rather take down my enemies before they are ever aware that I am there. As I am an assasain I take to the use of throwing daggers, shurikens, poisons, smoke bombs and other weapons that are used by those who wish to remain hidden and silent.
My adventures: I am a well versed explorer, I will explore anywhere and everywhere but I tend to draw near places of supernatural activity or urban myths. I prefer exploring in the dark as the lack of light place strongly to my ability to sneak around undetected. When it comes to loot I prefer something old rather then something shiny. I seek old relics or books that will feed by every hunger need for knowledge.
My Status: In the world I live in I am highly respected and yet very much feared. Am I smart and thus many come to seek knowledge from me, but as well many seek my services. I am an assassin, I top one at that, I have never failed a hit and I fear I never will. I carry two titles depending on which services are requested, my fountain of knowledge has dubbed me the title "The Lore Master" and my work as an assassin has given me the name "The man who gives certain death". As you can see I belong to no army as well as that I side with no nation, I am a mercenary for hire, I go to those who can either provide me with knowledge or give me a worthy challenge. Because of my work I am a highly wanted man as well, I have many who hunt me but as they are all usually assassin I always best them since in this game I am at the very top.
Technology: As I am a lover of relics, I do not fear technology. In fact I love it, I have many technological artifacts both modern and ancient. One of which resides in my body, an artificial eyes that serves as a mini display which can show such things as time, a map, objectives and as well auto locate nearby heat signatures.
Origin: I have little knowledge of my origins, at birth I was an orphan, I live out on the streets and became a rather skilled pick pocket. Until one day an man as old as time saw what I had done. He offered me a choice, to turn myself in or to join him as an apprentice. I naturally chose to be his apprentice knowing little that perhaps turning myself in would have been a less harsh experience. For next 5 years I trained with him, learning the ways of the assassin. My training was harsh, from running on water to being completely silent to the point where I could nearly stop my heart.
My morality: It is needless to say that perhaps some might call me evil. I do not hesitate to kill someone whether it be a evil dictator or a saint. I am a man who will do anything for knowledge, but at times I choose not to take a task because I believe it is truly wrong for me to kill the person. I have a strict policy of not killing woman or children. I feel a need to repay society from every kill so whenever a job is finished I do something charitable that matches the worth of the life I have taken.

I travel so often, because no matter where I seem to go, things fall apart around me.

My name is Karina. I have luckily made it to 20. I stand about 5' 6". My hair is a light purple colour with streaks of red in it. I only have one eye and it is an off orange colour. My other eye was stabbed out in a fight for my life. I was trained to be an assassin and I became to well known and attacks on my life became high. I've decided that it was pointless to try and hide so my clothes have a bright white and gold colour to it. I wear a shirt that covers only my breast, I suppose this would be a bra. It is black in colour. And then a coat that is sleeveless The outside is white with a light gray lining around it. I wear pants that are black with white checkered squares on the left leg. I have combat black boots underneath the pants. I have learned not to stay in one place so I travel often. I've also decided to travel to find my roots. I can no longer remember where I came from or why I was given to be an assassin. I wish to remember my past and have made it my duty to find it. I carry two swords with me. one is obsidian in colour and the other is silver. They have become more and more important during my journey. My goal is to one day be living under the free sky with no danger lurking around in every shadow. I fear that my goal might be to hard for me to obtain.
