As a librarian, I agree; however, there is something to be said for memory.

I'm just thankful that everyone here has a built-in nametag, so I don't have to remember all your names.

I suppose it's more if - instead of knowing everything now, know how to find out new stuff, and don't forget it once you've learned it!

True, but then there's all the alt-IDs to consider... grin

Of course then there are also our real-life names, our characters' nicknames, our characters' "real" names (such as Rockhopper Lad's given name being "Eudyptes"), among other things, to remember. Some of these can be answered using the LMB Wiki (plug, plug).

How many characters really have politicsl beliefs? Rocky is obviously a monarchist, but he is also quite possibly a socialist. We've never seen any sign of private industry in the Pyngwyn Colonies.

My main character would fit the definition of "Hollywood liberal", being insanely wealthy and privileged but also wants to help the less fortunate and supports what she thinks are worthy causes. Her boyfriend is currently center-right; he's a business owner who earned his money through competing in Tournaments.

Power Boy ain't got time for that. He would be sort of an anarchist ... his tribe are few and far between and they go their own ways ... or fight it out through fisticuffs or political intrigue.

... but now he is learning to be an elected official. He's more of an FDR ... or TR ... an elected official with a big stick.

he's not one for debate or public process. Which is just what the galaxy needs after the Dark Oval War, I think he's insanely popular for his heavy handed leadership style.

It's kind of interesting that Peebz with his "big stick" leadership is elected LMB leader after the Dark Oval, while Rocky was leader during the Oval war. Rocky is all about diplomacy and nonviolence until he's provoked to become Big Daddy Rockhopper. wink

Invisible Brainiac is heavily based on what I am like in real life. Very idealistic, and gets enraged at injustice.

I guess Rocky is a lot like me, though in some ways, he is who I would like to be. Time-Teller Lad also represents a facet of my personality.

Lardy's pretty much not political at all. He has a history, though, of doing whatever it takes to protect his home, Legion World, and those extreme measures eventually netted him some jail time. I suppose, then, that if Lardy were here in the 21st century he'd probably be a hardcore conservative as far as advocating the right to own firearms and such.

He's like a super-alpha version of me. Kind of the Superman to my Clark Kent. I'm a moderate liberal with mild manners and an aversion to confrontation of any sort. No one would describe Lardy that way! grin


Still "Lardy" to my friends!

Maybe we should give Lardy a secret identity tongue

Would Ann Hebistand be happy playing Lois Lane?

One of the nice things a lot of us find with having these characters is having an idealized version of ourselves to play with. smile Of course, not everyone's main character is quite that.

It CAN be fun to play the villain sometimes. As long as it's all pretend, of course.

If you want real evil, I'll just post a bunch of my High School poetry.

I took a basic poetry-writing class in college. There was a whole lotta angst from my classmates. Mine tended to be kind of on the cute side.

I don't about uplifting, but I just sort of drift into "cute" an awful lot. shrug
