I'm thinking of giving several of you guys, or at least your namesakes, a cameo or walk-on in an upcoming campaign. Anyone got a request for how they're represented? (And no, I don't wanna see your 180 pt character record. You're gonna be a cameo, and probably won't need stats. Also, I'm not talking about your character; rather, some version of you as a character.)
No one's gonna get killed in effigy, unless you ask nicely. |

I think i'd be more interesting if you portray the lucky few as you envision them, and then let us know how it turned out. :)

You do look Elven AH, though lovely is too feminine a term to suit you. Your picture has a vintage quality to it...I feel like I'm looking at a recolorized picture from a WWII scrapbook. Were you trying for that, or was it a quirk of fate?
On another random note...didn't Ryan Mercury have red hair... |

Ye gods, an elven assassin in every likeness! I humbly apologize for my initial skepticism.
But of course! :D |

Let's say the circumstances under which that photo was taken give a reasonable explanation for the similarity. |

Deleted because it wasn't what Dog meant, before he made it more clear. :D

Wow, that would be awesome! Shanshu is a blonde elf guy who wears purple tinted eye glasses, and specialises in pistols. He's a sucker for the underdog, and has been known to take in strays on occasion. (people, not dogs) He's a True Believer in any cause promoted by Dunklezahn. He uses humor to disguise nerves, but usually plays it cool in most situations.

my 2 :nuyen:
I actually never developed my persona as a character, but if I were to do so, it would be something of a mix between the Silicon Mage, and a blood mage character. Black Magic and Matrix savvy, combined with a bit of know-it-all. Not so say that I know it all. Hahnsoo and AH are good about setting that straight (thanks guys ;) ), just the character. Be more of an info broker or magical contact type. Definitely a black hat type. |

I agree with Fortune. Pick some notable people and create them as you see them, then get back to us. More interesting that way.

I have a feeling the only usable bit of info is in bold. But here goes anyway. Here is a character that I have been playing for about 4 years (real time)
Chi-Sao. Drake (though always appears in human form), Male, 22yrs, Chinese-Mandarin. Long tied black hair with under cut. Brown eyes. Grade 12 Initiate. Masked, no Cyberware... Chi-Sao is a well toned with a slim build. He wears only the best quality taylored armour. Currently he is fitted out with a Great Coat and suit, all from the latest range of fashion that you might have seen on recent trid. Cunningly however, the suit is made from a material that has 6 pre-programmed colours/patterns: Black, White, Urban Camo Day/Night, Woodland Day/Night. (Power packs & switches inside clothing) (Conceal: 10) "You notice a young chinese man glance your way from under a Black chinese peasant hat. He is smartly dressed in suit and coat with no distinguisable markings. You notice from his posture that he he must have had good dicipline in his life but otherwise he appears calm and relaxed and is most likely just another bystander" His weapon of choice is Pien'Chi, his custom made R:6 Weapon Focus Dikote Katana. This is yet concealed within his Great Coat in a custom sheath (Conceal 10). He follows the way of the Shadow and his aura is always masked (being a Drake after all!). He fights normally with a R:6 Anchored Armour Focus & a R:4 Anchored Improved Invisibility Focus (He has Magical Power Lvl 2 so takes Physical Drain from said spells:-( ). His hat is also a balanced throwing weapon. It shape allows it to be thrown much like a chakram (without returning). |

Troll Grande Zombie / professional masked luchador / superhero (sometimes supervillain)
Usually a technico, except when is essence is running low, then definitely a rudo. |

My namesake is usually either a meatshield or damage output. Usually Human, sometimes Elven. Rarely Awakened (if he ever is, an Adept. Silent path using mostly unarmed combat).
However, if you felt like portraying him differently, feel free. I agree with Fortune that it'd be interesting to see how it turns out. |
