Who was the most noble RPG character in your opinion?

Harkoliar · 01-27-2005, 12:52 AM

its been awhile since i have played bg2.. but keldorn is the first guy that comes into my mind

Do you mean noble as in 'aristocratic', or noble as in 'good by christian morality'?

Hmmm, well, I'm gonna go with 'aristocratic' and say that Kain from the Legacy of Kain series gets my pick. He was awesome...

Why should it be 'good by christian morality'?

I interpret the question free from religious values in general and just apply the word noble in its more general use (i.e one who demonstrates a high moral character can be considered noble), rather than the social class.

I'd have to say the persona of Lord British from the Ultima universe. No other NPC has instilled me from my long RPG history with such benign frienship, honour, intelligence towards the sake of good for all and a warmth in philosophical discussion on the tenets of avatarhood. Not many other characters I can think of, do this half as convincingly as ol' LB. [img]graemlins/cheers.gif[/img] (To your health, LB!)

He also manages to do this without heading too far into self-righteousness, which many paladins (i.e Keldorn) are prone to doing.

That's because hierorphant has a different philosophy and does not believe in good and evil.

And he like to remind people of that... [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I would have said Tassadar but you want to know about RPG's. Then, I'd have to say Illmater, the FR god of suffering.
