Personality, or Where I Ramble About My RPG Characters Like A Boring Gamer

marnanel asked on his journal 'What actually makes up a personality?'. This set me to thinking about my RPG characters, on account of the social pressure that happens to make each RPG character you play have a distinct 'personality' seperate from others you have played (especially when bringing a new character to an established campaign when your last character has died / otherwise become unplayable).

Basically all of my RPG characters are me, because I'm lame like that. Those who weren't haven't really worked out for me.
( Immensely dull rambling about my RPG characters, probably of no interest to people who are not me. )

I'm sure I've played other interesting characters but that's about as far back as my introspection goes.
