I mean, if you could be whatever - a protagonist, a quest giving NPC, a monster, a side character, but not an established character like Nameless One, Drizzt etc.
Discuss!!

I would be a 40+ year old virgin Wizard with an adjective for a name describing the state of food that has a pleasingly firm, dry, and brittle surface or texture.

I was going to say Grand Wizard, but someone beat me to it.

Vampire then.

Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
Man slowly bleeding out in some dungeon, waiting for a party of adventurers to tell my story to, only to be cut off at the last second by the untimely embrace of death.

An embittered old lich who chased his dream of immortality an eternity ago and now sits on the throne of his dungeon, his empire lost and the civilization he once led crumbled to dust a thousand years ago, just sitting there unmoving, his rage and hatred growing every day, waiting for foolish adventurers to enter his chambers so he can unleash his wrath upon them.

I'd be a simple farmhand mucking stalls only to die off-screen from some horrible disease the protagonist unwittingly spread.

I really love the setting of Torment: Tides of Numenera.
so ideally I'd like to be either the Changing God or the Sorrow .or alternatively just a Castoff who lives in Miel Avest.

Changing God:
+ immortal
+ can change body whenever he wants to and can be whoever he wants to
+ can (more or less) explore the whole planet
+ has his own religious cult
- is chased by the Sorrow
- has not so pleasant backstory

The Sorrow:
+ immortal
+ is feared by everyone
+ is powerful
- a bit narrow minded
- most likely wouldn't take pleasure in exploring cities/landscapes due to his obsessive mindset

Whorehouse owner specializing in elves and half-orcs. I would use my wealth to collect a variety of designer's enchanted weapons, the ones that both looks elegant and have beautiful magical properties. In my spare time I would study magic and ancient spells and complain endlessly how all the mage academies are shit and doesn't teach proper wizardry.

A gentleman of refined taste, a scholar, a virile man who owns a lot of women, and a capitalist.

I'd be an adventurer in the Forgotten Realms setting. Most freedom to do whatever the fuck I want, I'll get to see a bunch of cool shit, and it'd be dope af to retire in a lodge filled to the brim with cool shit I collected over the years.

I think I'd find great pleasure in being an escort quest character. Whenever someone would start escorting me I'd get stuck on purpose, freeze and whine whenever they'd go too far ahead, aggro annoying mobs, fall off cliffs, start walking in the opposite direction, etc. Exceptional potential for trolling.

I'd be MFKNDAGGERFALL or whatever his name is, bard with 3 intelligence and 1 charisma.


I'd spend my days complaining and waiting for people to notice I killed myself.

Elder scrolls mage, use one of the walking ways to achieve godhood, conquer Tamriel, then find a way to return to Earth with a giant invincible army.
