One who seeks to catch 'em all. Ash.

*snerk*

That's pretty good.

Uhhh ... I'd be the reluctant hero, like Bruce Willis in The Fifth Element. If he was a girl, and some hot bloke just tumbled into my car.

I put Robin Hood. I just recently got out of incarceration for stealing from my rich now former employer and giving the money to someone who needed it much more. And, no, not myself.

I would be the anti-heroine who tells people to get the hell off of my lawn and leave me alone, instead of destroying them on a subatomic level.

Don Quixote and Gilgamesh blended together, I voted for Don Quixote though.

One who seeks to learn and grow(Gilgamesh). I've always believed that learning is important, and also that all knowledge should be shared if possible.

I'd say maybe Alex from A Clockwork Orange: purely self interest (bit Byronic too then), up until I matured/grew out of my rebellion and self indulgence. Or when I succumbed to the conformities of society, whatever. :P Never did anything as bad as Alex or Byron though, happy to say!

I'd be more a wandering sage/teacher than a hero or villian.

I voted for Byronic, though Monkey King and Underground Man would have worked for me too.

None really. I'd like to say I identify the man in my signature a little bit in the sense that I see corruption in my government and would desperately like to change it, as well as the huge gap between social classes and how, apparently, nobody sees anything wrong with it. But to be honest that all comes off as highly egotistical, comparing one's self to a famous historical figure or a mythic hero. Just my opinion.

I'd like to be like Captain Ahab. Fixate so much on a bad plan that it gets everyone around me killed.

I going with either Gilgamesh, Oddyseus, and Beowulf.

I'm a svcker for being remembered in the history books i'll admit it, either as some little footnote whether it be something rediculous or something interesting.

Also I want to learn from my experiences and to learn more about myself and who I really am.

And for the sake of adventure to try things and see what will happen.


Out of the three....Oddyseus, but then he really wanted to go back home cause his kingdom was in turnoil and alot of dudes were mooching and trying to get with his wife. But he had some nice adventures and experiences.

The hero part, I could care less though.

I have a character in a YouTube project I'm working on and "working for his own interest" (weither it's power or to restore his peoples home) pretty much describes him...perfectly.

one who seeks to protect, i guess, since that's part of my name... but i can hardly associate myself with King Arthur though. i think i'd want to ride a immortal horse and be immortal myself, charging into battle with my immortal army and if for whatever reason moral declines, fire them up again, even if only by leading by example. preferably though, by words. i wouldn't even want the credit of a leading figure, just be in that position and fire people up.

in games i used to play, i went for paladins, especially those with flashy spells that deal massive damage in short time, to a lot of enemies at the same time. with my Revan character for example, it was immensely fun to Force Storm and good lightsaber duel and with Jedi Exile, Force Crush(Crash, whichever it was) and again, a good lightsaber duel.
