This whole situation made me laugh, so I’m sharing it. (It’s also a good lesson.)
A while back I was in an RPG and we needed a character for the plot. The character actually needed to die off quickly for the plot to work.
The character (Jared Stone) was a cute, hotshot, skirt-chasing, foul-mouthed-yet-endearing pilot. He was critically injured and needed to die after a few days to make way for another character to take his spot.
Because of this, we (as a group) chose this avatar:
Cute, yes? XD
But then……something happened.
Because of the other player dropping out, we needed Jared to miraculously pull through and live.
O.o
The character became a main character, and the avatar was ridiculed mercilessly.
(My favorite one was comparing him to Kahn Singh:
KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNN!
And my favorite nickname was “Mr. Booby Chest.” XD)
So, finally, he chose a new avatar….but the nicknames, I am told, will remain.
So remember, kids….when choosing an avatar, choose wisely. The pic should reflect the nature of your character, and…plan ahead.
