Granted, I'd think some semblance of relation would need to be present to have at least some fascination with roleplaying in D&D, let alone the Realms. 2) If I were to make a Realms character based on myself, could anyone help me? I've done various online quizzes, and this between those and what I know of myself in reality, here's what I have, personality and ability-wise. - a bit tougher than I look - fascination with crafting things more functional then artistic - reverence of earthy natural settings, be it cavernous or arboreal/wooded - passionate, flirtatious, and caring towards women, but reserved and cautious around people in general - tries to be caring and protective of friend & family - rather predictable, but occasionally prone to amazing surprises - generous but also tending to pool resources for further use/donation after my own needs are met - prone to overdoing in various tasks, either ending up off my action or causing astounding results; in combat, I could just as easily miss an opponent as cause grieveous injury - as far as combat is concerned, I usually work best by exploiting enemy weaknesses from the front - somewhat absent-minded; capable of decent insight but may find social situations somewhat awkward - been described as a potential nurturer and leader - skilled writer, natural fighter, and all-around everyman; somewhat of a jack-of-all-trades - not the most skilled singer/performer, but somewhat talented in acting, practicing words/phrases/quotes endlessly when alone and - can be moody, but can use my emotions to aid my progress in a trying situation Overall, I think I'd probably be best chalked down in 4th Edition to a (Shield) Dwarf Paladin with the Bard multiclass feat, or an Ardent or Battlemind (PHB3), maybe multiclassed into Paladin. 3.X Edition, either a Shield Dwarf or Half-Elf Bard probably multiclassed into either Fighter or Ranger, or even Barbarian. Pardon if the second part is rather lengthy, but I've always been trying to find a measure of myself through the Realms and D&D in general.
