Im pretty sure all of us have a picture in their heads that in no way reflects what plays in the game. It just seems our nature moreso than others. When I created my Char it was with a particular mindset in mind and I drew inspiration from several different places,and it was enough to get me to quit template grinding and play for fun. and I wonder where it came for you guys.

I think mine was a mix of 3 prominent anime figures:

1. Vash the Stampede from Trigun: he was a dork but he had such incredible artistry with a pistol.(Why I am a Master Pistoleer)

2.Irving from FFXIII: He was such a badass shot (Anyone remember the trickshot limit break?) and no matter how awesome he was, he always fell tragically short with the ladies and socially. All he could rely on 100% was his gun and I respect that.

3. Spike from Cowboy bebop: Pistol artisty and underground dealings at its finest. I really liked his whole persona. Yes he was a bounty hunter, but his mix of hand to hand, pistol skills, and charm made me fall in love with pistols and smugglers. To me he is a smuggler at heart, he just took bounty hunter for some more content

1: General Veers was my idol, and still pretty much is. I love military ground tactics so I often use an Imperial front to my Smuggler.

2: Boba Fett: Bounty Hunter, ooolalala, hese my idol of combatants.

3: Spike: He influenced my love for bounty hunters, underground dealins, and high speed vehicles. Hese the reason why I went Smuggler-BH-Pistoleer mix.

Spike and Vash are some of my favorites of all time.

Batou from Ghost in the Shell should also be mentioned. If there is a bad ass of the bad asses, it should be him. But Vash is a close second im my eyes, I love Trigun. The story is so interesting once you ignore all the stupid skits and stuff. The battle between his brother and so forth is a very interesting story. I need to complete my collection...

Sheeana Secundus - Respec Jedi - Elder Carbineer @ heart.
Raylonis Del'Rathin - Elder Chef, Dancer - Retired / Canceled July 2005.

Without the past, the future would never happen.

I'd have to say NickHeel (N'Joh) and Selko (Selko!) from my own server, they're my inspiration to be naughty and underhanded! I love 'em to bits!

/wave N'Joh and Selko!

Roland Deschain "the gunslinger"is a frickin Badass and my inspiration. Also in general all the scum, thugs, and lowlifes from the Star Wars movies. word

The inspiration for my main... I don't know anymore... it evolved to a own persona, have a huuuge backstory in my head.

My Bounty Hunter, a bit of the Fetts. I call it the mandalorian blood in him. The rest came from one of my Shadowrun characters, one emotionless soziopath, where I don't want to know all of the backstory, cause it scares the sh!t out of me (the SR one, backstory for the BH exists)...

The secondary smuggler, the appearance and skillset came from a webcomic. A gunslinger, crazy pilot and always ready to get in touch with the girls. Backstory is not much more than what is in the bio so far... have to get over with it and start actually playing him on the ground...

We couldn't play SWG without Tiggs. Now we can =)
