  • If I were a video game character...

    Well, a pre-1985 video game character to be exact:



    I am a Gauntlet Adventurer!

    I strive to improve my living conditions by hoarding gold, food, and sometimes keys and potions. I love adventure, fighting, and particularly winning - especially when there's a prize at stake. I occasionally get lost inside buildings and can't find the exit. I need food badly.

    I'm a:

    Thrust-ship.

    I am small and tricky - where you think I am, I probably am not. I can work very fast, but I tend to go about things in a round about way, which often leaves me effectively standing still. I hate rocks. Bloody rocks.

    OR

    I am a Pacman Ghost.

    I like to hang around with friends, chatting, dancing, all that sort of thing. We don't appreciate outsiders, and do our best to discourage others approaching us. I enjoy occasionally wandering around randomly, and often find that when I do so, I get to where I wanted to be.

      I am a Space-invader.

      I will happily recruit the help of friends to aid me in getting what I want. I have no tolerance for people getting in my way, and I am completely relentless until any threats or opposition are removed. I try to be down-to-earth, but something always seems to get in the way.

        I am a Base-defender.

        What's mine is mine, and I make sure everyone knows it. Nobody invades my space without permission - I'd destroy everything I own before letting someone take it from me. I tend to be forward-facing, which is both a strength and a weakness.

          This sig is a shameless atempt to make my post look bigger.

            I am Pacman.

            I am an aggressive sort of personality, out to get what I can, when I can. I prefer to avoid confrontation, but sometimes when it's called for, I can be a powerful character. I tend to be afflicted with munchies constantly

              Ahahaha! Did you see the latest Futurama episode, Anthology of Interest II? I'm talking specifically about the second story where Fry wanted to know what would life be like if it was more like a video game... that was hillarious.

              "Invaders! Possibly from space!"

              "What are your orders?" "Drop down, increase speed, reverse direction!"

              Someday, we'll look back on this, laugh nervously and change the subject.

                I am a Breakout Bat.

                I am an abstract sort of creature, who dislikes any sort of restraint. If you try to pigeonhole me, I'll break the box, and come back for more. I don't have any particular ambitions, I just drift, but I am adept at keeping life going along.

                  Damn! Why do I always get the strange ones? In Quake I was one of those floating, phlegm-spitting things and now...

                    I am a Death Chase Rider.

                    I enjoy taking risks, and I get kicks from speed, danger, and death-defying stunts. I drink and drive, I bungee jump, I snowboard, with no regard for my own life, or the lives of those who stand in my way. Trees? I laugh at trees!

                    I am a Defender-ship.

                    I am fiercely protective of my friends and loved ones, and unforgiving of any who would hurt them. Speed and foresight are my strengths, at the cost of a little clumsiness. I'm most comfortable with a few friends, but sometimes particularly enjoy spending time in larger groups.I

                      a Scorched Earth Tank

                      When I have a mission, it consumes me; I will not be satisfied until the job is done. I have a strong sense of duty, and a strong sense of direction. Changes in the tide don't phase me - I always know which way the wind blows, and I know how to compensate for it. I get on poorly with people like myself.

                          I am Kong.

                          Strong and passionate, I tend to be misunderstood, sometimes even feared. I don't want to fight, I don't want to cause trouble, all I ask is a little love, and a little peace. If I don't get what I want, I get angry, and throw barrels and flaming oil at whatever's stopping me.
