| We all have favorites. Some prefer villains, others heroes, etc, etc, but that's not why we're here today.
This thread asks the very simple question:
Who exactly (all fandom (SM too) including) is your favorite character to roleplay? And why if you feel bold. What exactly makes them great for you?
Followed by: can you show us a sample of it, would it be from an old forum, a roleplay going on elsewhere, a roleplay going on here (past or present)? |

| My Otaku's lol but baring that, I do like the Shittennou for a lot of reason and I seem to gravitate towards Jupiter and Uranus the most. |

| I love playing Chibi Usa, probably because I wish I were Chibi Usa. ;D I have a level of appreciation for the character that I like being able to explore in writing. ♥ |

| Minako and Rei for me, I love them so much, and they just have personalities that make it easy for me to slip into their heads and explore xD I like playing villains in general, too xD |

| I haven't branched out uch but Minako and Rei have been fun for me so far! Also the couple of times ive played Chibisusa casually have been super fun and Id love to do more of her. I haven't done any villains yet but thats usually cause i like to play the "good guys" but it would be fun to try to twist that up every now and then I guess. Outside of SM, i haven't roleplayed a whole lot and I generally preferred doing original characters in some fandoms and sometimes completely original stories and stuff. Maybe I should expand myself and start playig different personalities xD |

| I have two all time favorites that aren't from this fandom: Charles Xavier and Grantaire. (Okay I'm lying I have a lot of favorites but I have to limit myself xD). Both are somewhat active blogs on tumblr. I also love playing James Watson from Sanctuary (very minor fandom so the roleplay is almost non-existent) and Remy LeBeau / Gambit (X-men). I used to really love playing Q (TNG), Lucifer (SPN). It's weird, I now realize I've been playing less villains xD That's sad. Grantaire - Tumblr Because that was part of the game though no one needs to see Charles' mess: - Sample:
He had absolutely no idea how it all happened, the memory still a blur in his drunken mind, but he knew it was probably his fault. He vaguely recalled a lot of wine, a fight. He had thought himself alone then, or else he wouldn’t have brought danger to anyone other than his own pathetic self. Apparently, Enjolras had been there, or had appeared tel un ange from heaven, apparently he had intervened, apparently he was now carrying him. He could feel his body under his own and that… well that was unfortunate. And slightly impressive.
When the silence became too much and some guilt started to leak through the fog, Grantaire could keep his mouth shut no longer.
“So, Apollo you really are then, for I am fairly sure to be heavy. Too much, certainly, for those shoulders of yours.” He was, after all, larger than Enjolras, even if it was more body than fat that made it so. “Is there something you cannot do?” The other was probably exasperated, maybe even angry, though Grantaire couldn’t tell without seeing his face. Or perhaps he should try to feel the way the muscles were tensed under him and guess whether they were from pent up rage or efforts, but he preferred not. “Of course there isn’t, what ludicrous question, but I beg of you, put me down. I will crawl if my legs fail me, but you will not carry me around.” I am not worth it… didn’t leave his lips. His facade was cracking, it was hard to gloat, to seem confident, to laugh too loudly or talk with exaggrated elation when he was being handled this way. Enjolras shouldn’t have been there and he should still be fighting or passed out in a corner with a bottle in his hands.
He felt the shake in Enjolras’ muscles before he heard his words and soon after he was dropped to the ground, landing in a rather graceless pile of limbs at the man’s feet. If a small grunt of pain left his lips, he ignored it. The words had finally made their way to his confused brain and he blinked up, taking in the sight offered before him. “Tu es sans coeur, Enjolras.” He mumbled, though there was the ghost, the hint of a smile at the corner of his lips, a wry curve up of a man too tired to fight back. “Beating with words a man already down.”
It felt familiar, almost normal in their interactions. What wasn’t was what had happened before: Enjolras helping him, Enjolras getting him out of trouble. He believed him when he said he would ask them to beat him to death and if he was in any other state, maybe would he be laughing.
“And you look frailer than most, I am rather heavy. Heavy with the clouds of my thoughts, the nectar I drink and the weight of this mortal body I was so ironically gifted when some miserable jester put my soul on this Earth. Yes, I doubted my carcass would do you good and not so wrong I was, was I?”
He pointed out, gesticulating around him to show he was on the ground and not still on Enjolras’ shoulder. His back stiffened when the motion brought some pain, but he made no noise.
“But my virtue is safe now, although creased.”
He breathed out, a way of thanking Enjolras, of offering him a way out of this conversation.
As for Sailor Moon's characters, let's say Zoisite (PGSM and anime/crystal/manga) and Diamond! |

| I usually prefer to play the senshi in Sailor Moon universe, because they are the most appealing to me. My absolute favorite is Minako, but I also enjoy playing Ami, Usagi, and Michiru. In certain situations I also like playing Rei, which is ironic because she used to be my least favorite character. The only inner I don't usually gravitate to is Mako. I'm also not interested in playing Haruka or Chibiusa.
I used to RP Charmed a long time ago, any of the sisters really, but since then I've mostly dealt with original characters, just set in certain fandom's world or original worlds. Can't remember the last time I played canon before I joined GC and started playing Sailor Moon to be honest. And my super old forum is gone so I can't dig up those old posts anymore. |

| None! It's hard for me to play characters that I haven't written myself. I simply never feel like I have Takeuchi's or others' goals for their characters in mind. I always want to take the character to a place I feel they weren't meant to be.
That being said, I did enjoy playing Fatty Mask in one fun thread. I think I'd be good with characters that don't have as established of a background so I feel more free to work with them. |

| I know this is probably unexpected, but I love role-playing Phobos and Deimos. It is so challenging to write a role-play post for animals that are unable to speak, so you have to use a fair amount of descriptive language to show how they feel and what they are thinking. So, yeah, technically I could role-play Phobos and Deimos as human-like guardians, but I prefer to role-play them as crows. The only downside is almost no role-play requires a significant presence for Phobos and Deimos, so, I've really only role-played them a few times on a different RPG forum. |
