Nick, from L4D2; only not as white, without the coprolalia, and not modeled after Nicholas Cage.

No, seriously: I think Valve was spying on me the day they drafted that character.

I'd be the guy with the trench coat and fedora, throwing molotovs at an approaching zombie hoard.
Then running away when they get too close, cause I'm a coward like that...

I'd show up in every Shin Megami Tensei and Tales game ever made. Just to tell the cast that they're all fucking retarded. I'm looking at you, Persona 4.

I'd so be a story breaker when I'd tell the characters plot twists I see coming a mile off.

Me as a character? Probably one of the background ones who has very little to do with the plot. Perhaps a friend to the main character. And personality wise? I'm kind of a dick, a little weird, and would more than likely either be dropped from the story/killed off within the first act of the game.

I guess I'm a bit like Rita, from Tales of Vesperia, with the exception that I'm not female and I'm not quite as annoying. I know a lot of random factoids and I do work with computers (which I guess are like modern-day blastia with the exception that they're not magic).

So I'd be the mage (in-battle) and guy who fixes mechanical things and provides random trivia (out of battle) as well as being playfully sarcastic (both).

Ideally, though, I see myself in a steam-punk kind of setting, with goggles on, working on a giant steam-powered robot.

Kind of like this: http://www.flickr.com/photos/eldave/136894663/
except I probably wouldn't be clad in armor because I'm not really a "get into the action face-first" kind of guy.

(By the way, the above is an image from Warmachine, a tabletop game about warcasters who control robots who beat the ever-living shit out of each-other.)

I would be that boss mid game who you think is the bad guy but is really just trying to save the world from a greater evil or something........ I would be some kind of necromancer or something Undead minions are kinda cool except for the bad smell

I'd prolly be me, in my cute black coat. Quiet and perceived as quite odd by boring people, but endearing towards people I like. Lawful... to a reasonable degree. I'm not the type to refrain from delivering the finishing blow on the big bad in favor of having an "Honorable" duel, or something of the like.

He's drunk and she promised him sex, btw
As for role and genre? Well....
*points to avatar and username*
I expect I'd be the kinda girl who gets kidnapped/killed/imprisoned in some unavailable-but-relevant-to-the-plot sort of way.

I'm the character that upgrades your weapons and armor for you.

You know, like the jaded armorer from Starcraft 2, except I look like a normal person.

I had a whole paragraph written out, describing me as an RPG character and who the rest of my party would be, but I'll give you the *significantly* shortened version, as I just realized that it's now Morning in Michigan and I've been on these forums since midnight last night non-stop (oops!).

Class:
*Scholarly, yet Tough, student of Tiger Style Kung Fu
-----------------------
Game:
*Tales-style Wuxia RPG
-----------------------
Techniques:
*Powerful Strikes, Earth Magic Techniques (Dirt Bullet, Summon: Ceramic Soldier), Rage
-----------------------
Job:
*Fight Highwaymen, Monsters, and Evil Sorcerors for money and the chance to avoid the banal townsfolk, whom I loathe for spending more time oogling Geishas and drinking Sake than they do learning to defend themselves from those threats.
-----------------------
Motivation:
*Defend the villages of the region from Sorcerors, Monsters, and Bandits until the townsfolk learn to defend themselves, allowing me to resume the journey I had previously been on before I arrived in the region. Unfortunately, it's beginning to look like that's not going to happen; I've been doing such a good job lately that, though I'm running myself ragged, the townsfolk are becoming complacent. They figure that if I can keep doing such a good job, they'll never have to worry about lifting a finger to protect their homes.
They sorely overestimate my abilities.
------------------------
Story Arc:
*I join a band of 5 other people - a Ronin, a Ninja, a Royal Guard, a Swordswoman, and a penitent Sorceror - to drive the Monsters and Evil Sorcerors from the land, making the region safe again and allowing me to resume my journey (among other things).
------------------------


That's not too shabby, huh? And this is the *cut down* version, with only a few details thrown into the mix.

I could be the scrawny comic-relief nerd in a Bioware game.

Like kang, or those adorable little aliens with like, a U on their head from ME.
