| |  To choose a world
Let's say that I, as a slumming god-on-leave, was to grant you the ability to start a novice character in an appropriate profession in a universe upon which any given fantasy CRPG was based. (Oh, you didn't know that CRPGs are actually brought to mind from other dimensions, where they already exist? Well, forget I said anything about it.) Which game envirionment and what profession would you choose? A novice sorcerer in BG2? A samurai in Wizardry 8?

Morlock,(half elven Mage lvl. 42) of course, needs no introduction for this legendery mage, who could beat the best fighter with his renowned home made spell "slayer of everything",who could contorol an army of illthids minds, who could slay dragons with his sling (The deathseeker +9)- which is, of course,home made, the savior of Waterdeep,the destroyer of the zhentarum, the eradicater of demons, the slayer of Lolth,the controller of Crenshinibon, the.....
He currently resides in his Crystal tower
in Waterdeep, claiming the title of King of the world. 
Ahem, um, sorta got ahead of myself here. 
What I meant to say was:
Morlock, the Egotistic and charming young mage from Luskan, currently waiting tables  and on the side he is looking into being the most powerful mage that ever lived.

Honestly, I would have wanted to be a samurai who would begin his training in bushido under the guidance of the greatest samurai ever --- the Samurai Saint. http://www.data-techniques.net/cwm/c...ne_samuria.gif

If I had to pick an RPG world, I would like to be a wizard from the Forgotten Realms.
If I could be any sci-fi character, I would like to be Lazarus Long or some other character from the World-as-Myth books.

Hey! No level 42 anythings, no rich young anythings. You start as a typical novice of your choice of profession appropriate to that world. Them's the rules for stating what you'd be.

No old boys, old gals, old mages, old paladins, old thieves, or old crones. 
Old fahrts like myself--maybe.
