I'ma talk about my characters...hehe!

Hows this for a random blog post? I'm going to talk about my various recurring characters/names and alias I use when playing video game RPG's/MMO's.

1) Shadow Ghoul. The big one. Sghoul is pretty much my main alias. If I play a game with a single character that isn't a fantasy RPG, Sghoul is the name I use. And when I do stuff online, Sghoul is pretty much always my handle.

Shadow Ghoul was created in the Marvel Super Hero RPG, which was a system that had you randomly generate characters. I rolled him up and he had Shadow Control, the ability to rot organic material, the ability to generate fear, and no real need to eat/sleep/breathe. So I called him Shadow Ghoul. And for whatever reason it stuck. Especially since sghoul is almost always available as a username on the interwebs.

2) Kasing. Kasing DeMarkus was my first serious D&D character. A Half Elven Ranger for those who care. I generally use him in games as a bow wielding human or elven character. And Kasing had a Van Dyke (like me) before I could even grow one. Hmmmm...

3) Jessail. Female wizard type. I made her as an NPC originally. Now I use her whenever I need a caster type. Generally Elven, always blond. And I play her as haughty (bitchy).

4) Neeily. She came about in Everquest. I played around with EQ for a bit. I wanted to stand out, so I looked at various race/class/gender combos. The least used one that I could see was Halfling/Rogue/Female. So I made one. I let the game give me random names, and one came up that was close to Neeily, but longer. Since long names are harder to type, I shortened it to Neeily.

Neeily is generally my short spunky character. Most often a rogue type. And always having dark (black if I can help it) hair. Although in Warhammer, I have one that is human.

5) Marlox. This guy came from Anarchy Online originally. I made a big galoot character, and Marlox sounded pretty galooty to me. Since then, any more monstrous character I make is Marlox. My troll in WoW, my current Orc in WAR.

6) Falla. Originally Falla Firehair, Falla is Neeily's lesser used cousin. Originally I wanted to make a Barbarian Rogue in EQ, and since I already had Neeily, I made this one up. Falla is now used most often if I am making an evil version rogue type. Usually human, and red haired.

7) Dungor Deadhammer. Another old D&D character, Dungor is my dwarf character. Now, what class he is changes pretty heavily. He's been a fighter, paladin, and cleric. He is also a main character in my Arnoth stories (that I have no put pen to paper for).

Some lesser known/used characters:

Hia! (with the '!'). Whenever I make a martial artist in a none online game.
Heal. The healer...duh!
Holy. Paladin or cleric.

That's enough of my musings for now.
