I assume most of us here have a bunch of RP characters, wether they actively RP or not. When we write them, we generally use a bit of our own feelings to fuel the fire that drives them, we pick a piece of ourselves, enlarge it to a character to give it shape.
What are your characters of you? Who represents what? I'll start, lead by example and al that.
Aldaris, Paladin of Torm Kind, altruistic, strong, charming, forgiving, helpful and sweet. He is what I aspire to be.
Infusco von Kempelen, Malkavian Vampire Insane, lost everyone he loved, paranoid, unreliable, lost. He is what I would pity most.
Azcracta'fazkan, Tiefling mage Cool, calculating, always in control, intelligent, no one matters but him, supremely arrogant. He is my evil side.
Drugar Deathbringer, Dwarven Battlerager Unstable, violent, rough, unpolite, stupid, agressive, unstoppable He is my bad mood.
My so far nameless Paladin of Kelemvor Cold, distant, uncaring, cynical, hateful, emotionless, alone. He is what I fear most of becoming.

Arontha - Human Assassin
Selfish, heartless, greedy and willing to abandon others. Lol.

My most recent: Morana - Human Thrall of OrcusShe's got the arrogant attitude I'm sometimes accused of sporting, and she hates people in general. The rest of her belongs in the category of unmentionables. And the others: Edana Sheridon - Human RogueInquisitive and willing to learn, but carries a bitterness in her heart making her very uncaring for anyone but herself. She's actually very akin to me, in fact she's a bit of a love child of mine Anebrin Nain - Human SorcererInsane, impulsive/compulsive, bad mannered and ill-tempered. He's me on a bad day - trust me, it's bad. Catherine "Cat" Holden - Human Gunslinger(Deadlands)She's stubborn, she's curious, if things don't go her way they don't go at all. She's blunt and she's got The Stare She's me when my Charisma is maxed out and in overdrive, and my subtlety has left me. Alima O'Connor - Human Antiquarian (Call of Cthulhu)She's studious, knowledgable in many useless things, a bit of a risk-taker where gaining knowledge is concerned. She's lost a good bit of Sanity points that way. She's actually a lot like me except that she's 15 years older and Irish. Then of course there IS Jem, but she isn't an RP character - but generally I can say: she started out with being my Alter Ego, but the developed in her own direction. She's still a lot like me in many ways though.

Kano Alderson, Greater God of the Eight Virtues: The name should explain it, hes my valiant side. Hes all of my good traits.
Verno Battlehammer, Dwarven Deity: Hes my Dwarven side, the tough and rough around the edges. And my lack of height, if you want to go into physical traits. Urg Behelthalmust: He can't even spell his own last name, or his first for that matter. He's my barfighting side, the side I've used a lot in the past. He's actually rather compassionate when he isn't pounding flesh or sucking the marrow out of a horse bone.
Nemor Silverdust: The gnomish Alchemist and Illusionist, and not a bad fighter. He's the clever part of me.
Well, that's enough for now...

"Let us start at the base of the hierarchy, and work to the summit..."
Flinn, Human scribe A humble servant, really a nobody. I killed his brother for sport, and he seems to hold some grudge over it. If anything the man represents efficiency, and patience.
William Anson, Human Sorcerer A weak wretch with... some dormant power. He may have some grand future or another, but I've yet to see anything. I hear they locked him in his house to watch his family die of plague... Judgemental and easily annoyed.
Ishan Dionesian, Lasombra Vampire A freelancer in our organisation, a diplomat and more. His traits include arrogance and charm, with a grand dose of confidence...
Alisdair Manactus, Human Military Commander A giant of a man, he represents duty, and the will to do anything to fullfill it... He's none too bright, if you ask me, but his punch can kill a bear.
Jarek, Sorcerer A white-haired, young appearing man, he seems sometimes to carry the weight of more than one world on his shoulders. He is powerful, but rarely seems to utilise everything he has...
Lord Veshannatax of Darkhaven, Race classified, Ruler of a nation. I myself am, of course, a power unto myself. I am charming, decisive, cunning, and, perhaps, somewhat cruel.
Lord Trinith Draconus, Ruler of the Netherrealm, The Omega Ahh yes, the Dark Lord Trinith. It is... emotionless, powerful, intelligent beyond mortal imagination and it will stop at nothing to get what it wants... He is Perfection...

Hmm, I've only got a few but here goes Lee Niala, Elven SwashbucklerShe is charming, flirtatious, confident, cool in the face of danger, fun loving, a little oblivious to whats going on around her, beautiful. She is me when I'm in a very good mood and with people I truly enjoy. "Moonrise" the monkQuiet but always willing to listen, sweet, loyal, wise and caring, deep. She is me with the people I love most, my friends when I'm in a pondering mood. Xantha NialoCold, unforgiving, creul, bitter, violent. She is me when angry or when holding a grudge. Tethril LiadonChaotic, ever changing, a good liar, strong, over protective, loving, wise, flirtatious, easy to anger but just as easy to forgive, given to many mood swings. She is me every day. Theres a few more but these are some of my main ones.

I figure. A friend of mine has been playing his character for more than 2 decades as well, and he recently put down the mantle of godhood because it was too limiting. Go figure

Well, the godhood did speed things up a bit, but the pure kickassticness of a character can make things boring(and very difficult for the DM), which is why my top characters are mainly just used for bothering people online ;D
