Character

[Essyne]

If you could be any character of fiction/fact, who would you be and why? Anything goes on this one.

Rocky Balboa, I love the character. 

[gyzzzmo]

Hmmm.... Not sure I'd want balls popping out of my back.     Someone congratulates you and slaps you on the back, "Way to go!" and you'd be on the floor.  Not mention just sitting in a chair.  Dang.  You'd have good posture for sure.  No slouching back.

Maybe someone from the future with lots of gadgets to do things for me.  Maybe someone rich.  Maybe a genius, complete with other personality skills so they're not scarred that way.  Someone smart.  Someone who can things with ease.  I don't know which character fits that.

[Essyne]

Maybe someone rich.

 

[Bob]

What?  Someone rich enough to pay someone else well to worry about his money for him.  I could be that guy.  Money can solve a lot of problems. 

I think I could go for a combination of characterion.  A little Invisible Man, some Sherlock Holmes, Captain Ahab for persistence.... Ah, why not?  Superman too.  that would take care of health and things.  A little evil scientist just for the grand ideas.  In that case, I guess I'm taking the best qualities from all the characters though.

If I had a spare life to live, Chris McCandless, the leather tramp.  Who hasn't entertained dreams of cutting all ties and being a vagabond?  That would be an interesting lifestyle.

[ramseytheii]

Leather tramp......?

How about being the "good" main character.  Because you know what ever happens, regardless of whether they know what they're doing or not, everything will turn out just right and they will learn a valuable life lesson.

From the book 'Into the Wild', it was a fun read!

Leather tramp is a drifter who gets around by the leather of his shoes, as opposed to a rubber tramp who lives out of a vehicle.

*yawn* But where's the fun in that? I don't want to "live happily ever after." If I have to die (which, obviously, I'll have to eventually . . . ), I want to snuff it in style!

Oh, that's a relief.  I was thinking of something quite different.

Walter Ramsey

[Bob]

I thought of one.  Not one I would be, but one I am like.

Javert from Les Mis.  Honor, duty, black and white for right and wrong. 

Not quite, but very similar I would say.


Knowing also, that's all in context.  You change the context, you get different black and white.

Jean-Luc Picard of course
