Agreed. I liked Conan, but the Conan Clones SUCK! No more Arnold-Type characters! I'm all for a thief though. Or even a Mage.

After watching Ever After, I can see Drew pulling of Nalia. Even the voice is almost similiar.

<span style="color: lightblue">Or perhaps Anomen? Only problem woudl be the lack of romance novel accent... but, I don't think anyone much would complain about that.

If u made a poll for the PC on 3 main characters: Wizard Class, Fighter Class, Rogue Class, i would almost guarantee the fighter class wins. Im not talkin just about this forum, but if asked for a large audience most would take the fighter. Their really the only thing that works on an epic story like this.

Off topic but seeing as how a lot of people are reading this, perhaps someone could give me a link to the download of the romance mod that lets all romances take place.

<span style="color: lightblue">Only a figher PC could possibly work? Hmm... no, I don't buy it. They are generally what has been done thus far, but there is always room for inovation.
And even if that were the case, why would it have to be a body builder superstar actor (ie, someone Arnold-ish)? Why not someone who looks normal? Why not an elf, or a dwarf? Why not a halfling?

And if you think that only an Arnoldish character could possibly work, how do you explain the succcess of Lord of the Rings?

Don't forget Costner in Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves.

Thief characters work just as well.

Mages, look at the movie Dragonslayer. That had a semi-mage (Fighter/Mage I'd say) as the main character.

I'd also say why not an elf, dwarf, or halfling? Maybe even a half-orc?

After reading The Cleric Quintet I also say why not a cleric? They can be interesting.

Well Lennon, if that is ur real name, scroll up and see if i ever said that only an Arnoldish character would work for the PC. Let me save u som time and tell u i didnt, thats what id like to see, but its not the only possibility.

How much thiefing did Costner do in Robin Hood? Was he always on guard looking for traps? Did he ever successfuly hide in the shawdows?

I could however see a cleric as the PC, everyone always loves a Holy Warrior, especially if the movie had some sort of religious crises, a loss of faith and then a miraculous redemption.

Keep in mind that people HATED Abdel, the PC in the Baldur's Gate novels. Male fighters are boring. Now, a female fighter, dual-wielding daggers or short swords... That's a bit different. Not "Me fighter man. Me hurt you with my arms the size of lunchmeat."

Hahaha what kind of lunch meat, pre-sliced or like a big haunch of ham?

The latter... Or maybe a caveman club. Or his bare hands.
