I love playing characters I don't have a solid grasp on (at character
creation). They give me room to grow and to create. And more often then
not something settles into place on it's own :)

For example, last year I made a male child who was an untrained and
powerful pyrokinetic for a fantasy type game. About the only thing I'd
figured out was that he had accidently killed someone with his powers, and
was running from the law. It was so much fun developing his motiviations
and perceptions of the world as we played. In the short time we played
that campaign (the GM went back to school for a career change) that
character developed great depth and breadth.

I would jump at a chance to find out what it's like to play an obsidiman.


To Life,
