My favorite D&D character to date has got to be Roscoe Underbough.

Roscoe is a multiclass Cleric/Rogue Halfling with a few loose screws. He's wise and intelligent, he knows that opening doors in a dungeon at random can be very dangerous, he just doesn't care. He likes pain, has ADHD and is incredibly annoying. One time, we met a fighter in a dungeon who claimed his party was slaughtered by a creature of fire back in the kitchen to which Roscoe replies: "That's what we call an oven."

I'm not currently playing Roscoe but he's still running around on this world. Just recently I used him after losing a character and before I was able to roll a new one. He had only been in that group for a single session (our session last three hours or so) and yet still, their flying ship was named after him: "The screaming Halfling."

Fun.

I'm actually thinking of writing a character-Journal for Lady Casandra in my current Baldur's Gate II game. I think it would be fun. Plus I have some fun ideas to help spicen the game up a bit on my second full run through, never mind the several half-baked ones.

Sounds like a good idea!

Meh. Yesterday EVERYTHING changed. Here is the tale:

I went to go and play Baldur's Gate II, but my brother said that he was on the computer. So I turned to my sister's computer that we just hooked up. It has BGII on there and so I thought I could play it there. But then I remembered that all of my characters were on this computer and, while I know how to retrieve them, I couldn't with my brother on it. So I started a new game.

My new main character is a Half-Orc Berserker (Fighter subclass) named Red-Moon Yorkbladder (Man, Half-Orc names are fun). He is the child of Jacatour, and his birth is actually a fun story. I was playing BGII with my Jacatour-lead party and I came to an inn. I talk to this one woman who says that she'll sell me her services if I give her ten pieces of gold. I do and then next thing I know I'm told that "your party has rest 8 hours". So, evidently, this woman was a prostitute. (Gotta' love those touches of realism in the game!) So Red-Moon is Jacatour's *beep* love-child he conceived with this woman. And, quite honestly, I think that he could give his father a good go with how good of a character he is.

Red-Moon has his wife along with him on the adventure. She's an Elf Priest of Talos (Priest subclass). I gave her Viconia's portrait and gave her black skin, so for all intents and purposes I made her a Drow. Her name is Sashara Moonsong.

In Irenicus' dungeon they came across an insane wild mage who joined their party, and is quite the spellcaster too. They also kept Minsc/Boo and Imoen. But they parted ways with Jahera and didn't trust Yoshimo when they met him.

Now, with this party I'm going to try something different. Half the party (three people) are going to be of my own creation, but the other half are going to be premade NPC's from the game. The character interaction is quite entertaining and I think it will add some fun to the game. I already know which three NPC's I'll have (Kelgorn, Minsc, Jan Jansen).

Red-Moon's personality seems to be something of a cross between Jacatour and Yissma Snizwatt (See Lycoria, but Yissam is an honor bound Orc warrior, Jacatour's half-brother, who is very set in his ways and a very antagonizing protagonist). I find that very often his actions are the same of that of his father, although the reasoning is more along the lines of Yissam. For instance:

There is a dijinni in the game who asks you a question. A wizard captures you and your sibling and holds you in two separate cells, unable to communicate between the two of you. There is a button and he says that if you push it and your sibling does not hen you die but they go free. If they push it and you do not then you go free and they die. If neither or both push it then both die. Red-Moon first answered that he didn;t know, but that did not suffice the dijinni. So he answered the same as his father had years ago, that he would push the button. But,while his father did it because it was the uncowardly and honorable thing to do, his son did it because he figured that he had no siblings and that, if he did, why should they sacrifice their life for him. So he pushed the button so that at least one could escape, not because he thought it the right thing to do.

Yeah, and I doubt now that there'll be a character journal, as Red-Moon doesn't seem the type to keep one. But I'll inform you of any events of particular note.
