I'd definitely go with the 'alternate world you' version, myself.  I mean, I'd be far too angsty to be around if I was separated from my wife and pets and friends and all that.




So, then...  Barbarian?




Only if we rename 'Rages' as 'Depressions'.




...  You see, I read "angsty" as "angry".  Instead, let's say Ardent, hm?

Oh boy. That's something I want to see: Typical final fantasy game with stereotypical angsty protagonist, except he's not angsty but very, very angry instead.
Imagine the potential love interest dying in a very dramatic fashion, lying in the arms of the hero while he yells and cusses at the villain who just vanished and the situation in general while the rest of the party isn't quite sure what to make of the situation.

I'd buy twenty.

Well, that's what happens with Cloud, but the rest of the game kinda overshadows that...

Funny story:
InQuest Magazine (I think it was InQuest) had an oversized Chaos Orb which I totally rooked someone into allowing into a (non-sanctioned) game. 
I had a proxy card that was a Mountain with "Chaos Orb" written on it. When I played it, my opponent cried foul:

Him: "WTF? a Proxy? no-one said anything about Proxies. Do you even own an actual Chaos Orb?"
Me: "Yes, but I thought it would be better to use a Proxy." 
Him: "No way. If you're going to put a Chaos Orb in your deck you have to use your actual Chaos Orb."
Me: "*Sigh*. Okay."

I pulled out this huge Chaos Orb and placed it on the table. He tried to cry foul again but everyone else said he insisted I use my actual Chaos Orb and that was my actual Chaos Orb. I used it, flipped it and wiped most of his board.

Unsurprisingly, that only worked once and only because everyone present thought it was hilarious.

no, see i can kill defenders, but 8 consecutive crits on a battlemind, eh walk it off.

Hi guys!  So, I'm a sort of returning player to Magic.  I say sort of because as a child I had two main TCG's I liked.  Yu-Gi-Oh, and Pokemon.  Some of my friends branched off in to Magic, and I bought two pre-made decks just to kind of fit in.  Like I said, Yu-Gi-Oh and Pokemon were what I really knew how to play.  I have a extensive knowledge of deck building in those two TCG's.  However, as far as Magic is concerned, I only ever used those two pre made decks.  I know how the game is played, and I know general things, but now I want to get in the game for real.  I want to begin playing it as a regular.  My question is, are all cards ever released from the time of the inception of this game until present day fair game in a deck?  Or are there special rules?  Are some cards forbidden or restricted?  Thanks guys, and I will gladly accept ANY help lol. 


I have the same problem with women.

That's what RPJesus tends to do. That's why I don't think he's a real person, but some Magic Card Archive Server sort of machine, that is programmed to react to other posters' comments with obscure cards that do in fact exist, but somehow missed by even the most experienced Magic players.

And then come up with strange combos with said cards. All of that is impossible for a normal human to do given the amount of time he does it and how often he does it.

He/It got me with Light of Sanction , which prompted me to go to RQ&A to try and find if it was even possible to do combat damage to a creature I control (in light that Mark of Asylum exists).

Blue players get all the overpowerered cards like JTMS.  I think it's time that wizards gave something to people who remember what magic is really about:  creatures.


Initially yes, Wizards was married to blue. However, about a decade ago they had a nasty divorce, and a few years after that they began courting the attention of Green. Then in Worldwake they had a nasty affair with their ex, but as of Innistrad , things seem to have gotten back on track, and Wizards has even proposed .

Either Ardent, because I'm good with people, or Warlock, because I'm a lazy bastard. (Study, or sell my soul? That one's easy.)

I have found that I like to play characters that are ideologically similar to me. Though often I will change their mannerisms to try being a different personality than myself. I like to play good/divine characters because I think I enjoy roleplaying good in a world where being good is something so concrete, the gods are real, and the actions of good men are recognized and encouraged.

I would "like" to consider my self a ranger. The amazing nature guy who is a complete loner. Closer to reality I would be the wizard in the back screaming "Don't hurt me" while I blasted people's heads off.

There's lots of DND quizzes out there aimed at figuring out just this very question.  For me, the most common results are Bard (the kind-of-artsy-and-right-brained-yet-software-engineer kind) and then Monk (from years of studying martial arts and some of my philosophical choices.)  It's... not a very optimal combination.  Especially not according to 3rd edition.

A half-elf bard with the feat that makes the attack stat for multiclass and dilletante powers charisma might be an interesting character. Especially when they pull a full discipline power out of nowhere (at-will in Paragon!)

I would most likely be some form of tome wizard b/c i love books. I would probably hang way back and summon stuff to fight for me. intelligent just not as intelligent as he thinks. Facetious (smart-arse), quick to get angry, and self depricating.
