Actor Explorer, according to Sir Nitram.

Nitram, slightly high on cough syrup: Do you know you're beautiful?
Me: Nope, that's why I have you around to tell me.
Nitram: You -are- beautiful. Anyone tries to tell you otherwise kill them.

I considered such, but it always felt like such a lie... I eventually had my Paladin cast off his church's morals and started Kicking Ass For God.

Hmmmm, I think I'd be a more along the lines of "Simple RPGer".

"Fuck complexity, give me a turn based system any day"

I bought BG2, I just can't get into it, at all. It takes too long to do boring shit. I prefer the RPGs of the console, Final Fantasy, Lufia(new one is good, but I fucked up with the Adventure's cave so I'm pissed off right now and we're not talking.), Chrono Trigger, etc. Also, I don't like realism in my RPGs, sure the system is more RL like, but, if I wanted that I'd just bring a sword to school.
