    I have, in fact, been in a videogame, but Psy saw fit to only make me an NPC.

    Squishy wizard, possibly to the point of crippling overspecialization. I'd start out real weak and useless but you know how magic-users get at higher levels :getin:

    I was a long range fighter in video games, but I became "Jack" after Final Fantasy X. Being good at everything has it advantage, because you can exploit weakness of every enemy and it can save your butt almost everytime. :P
    For example, when I'm fighting against a knight (close range), I know his meele attacks are pretty tough, but he's got low magic defense, so I can give him a hard time using magic. :P

    Truly? I never knew that about you, Bubba!
    Trained under Tommy Kwan for seven years. Funnily enough, I came across my name recently on his black belt hall of fame on the website

    Jack of all stats sounds like me. I've never been specialized at anything or particularily talented but I've never been outright bad at anything either. Plus my gaming handle is usually Zack of all Trades.

    Glass canon. I can shoot something, or hit it pretty well, but would probably break in half if someone actually lands a hit.

    "I'd be a Magic Knight, since I'm pretty
    good at both magic and close combat."













    "...but not as good as everyone else."












    "Oh wait! Not quite as good as 'everyone else'?
    So... how does it feel to be below mediocre?"

    "Bern, can you please just be quiet?"












    "You do realise you're worse
    than 'everyone else', right?"

    "Just... shut the hell up!"

    As much as I'd like to be a squishy wizard, I'd be a in close fighter. I played hockey for many years and I fought my way through a lot of games because that's what I had to do. I'm good in close, and I can take a hit to dish one out.
