I have a few characters who are endlessly recreated throughout most games I play.
Zephyr is a dark elf ninja, who is on a path of global destruction... one man at a time. He bounds from roof to roof, carefully tracking his pray with a bow in his hand and a katana on his belt. He is never seen or heard by his pray, so armor would just slow him down. He is a true mix of combat, stealth, and magic; he favors sticking to the shadows, yet often attacks with a blade, and practices illusion to aid him in his conquest. He is not immortal, and is slowly but surely aging away.
Next I have Felix, who is a former knight (no one knows but him) and is currently a pirate of sorts. He plunders and pillages, but is not truly evil. He is just really bored with life, after already living for thousands of years (became immortal after a deal with the devil). Sticking to his imperial roots he would prefer talking someone into action rather than forcing them, but being incredibly cocky, he will still charge into battle against small armies wearing nothing but a jacket and using only a cutlass.
Next I have Damion, a truly evil man and a bloodthirsty killer. He served with Felix as a Paladin over a thousand years ago, and once he found his own way into immortality he abandoned the light and now fights for reasons unknown. Because of his training as a paladin, he uses heavy armor, a shield, and a one handed weapon. Although he appears to be a warrior, in battle he uses mostly restoration, another paladin art, to slay his foes. In recent years he has also taken some interest in destruction, although he has trouble with many of the spells and was never trained in that art.
