I never got in to PnP, and i don't play the BG type games online, but my main pc is usually female. They get into more unusual circumstances i think [img]tongue.gif[/img] (like on NwN you can flirt with that pirate guy and get by the door). I played a male pc once to try a romance. In games like IWD my "main" pc is female, and i'll probably have 2 males out of the 6 characters u get to make just so its balanced out...or something [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I have never played PnP, only CRPG games exclusively. 99.9% of time, I played as male. I honestly don't know why but I guess that I am quite proud of my gender (male) and I have never thought of playing as the character from the opposite sex.

I am male and had always used male characters. Hmm - I think I will try to play a female character in my next PNP AD&D game. Just to add some new flawour (and to see the behaviour of the other guys in the party [img]smile.gif[/img] ).

Hmm, I tend to play both actually. For me I don't see computer games as roleplaying cause I don't choose what to say and I don't do what I want to do, but do what I see as plausible for the situation given me.

But I tend to have alot of female characters in NWN, bg etc due to the fact that I tend to be a bit more protective about them. Yeah yeah.. blah and blah but thats me.

In PnP I play also both female and male, but I prefer male characters. Simple cause it is easier to to do what you want and to think like a "man" (Whoooa you didn't see that comming did ya.. ) bah.. Send this to a shrink and I will have a nice collection of white pills to go with my red ones eh..

So why do I really play female characters?
In PnP because I have an idea of a character that happens to be female. I never "roleplay" them much though.

In CRPG's. Well first of all, much nicer to look at, I am a bit more protective about them so I don't send them in to clear the minefields so to speak

In a pnp game I play males, a sort of fantasy extention of myself.But in crpgs i often feel the more balanced charcters are most often the females.Something between the no magic brute and the all magic frail wizard usally does better.

I always play Male. PnP or BG series. Oh I suppose it doesn`t matter if you are a Dwarf in BG becuase Female and Male are exactely the same.

It can be creepy, too. There's that guy I "know" who is a big Vampire: The Masquerade fan, and I'm sure he think he is really his character, you should see the way he act in real life, and he is always mumbling too, which make him look even more psycho. I was suposed to join his group once, but when I found out how he acted in real life, I changed my mind. I realy don't want to see how they play.

That is creepy. How does he act in a real life,Luvian?

Edit: Basically he's staying in character even in real life. I don't know what he's mumbling, I don't think I want to know, either.

I always play a female character - I don't really know why! Some distant, latent need to be fulfilled I suppose.

It's over 25 years since my operation but I'm still somewhat confused genderwise. In RL I prefer being male but I miss how easy it was to get sex as a woman.
