Firehazrd159 posted this on another thread, and I thought it might be worth expanding the idea of correlating forum members to fictional characters.... I have a few initial ideas which I will discard before posting anything myself.. (Umm we don't already have a thread like this, do we?)

" Cog = Darth Vader?... Nah!"



This is kind of random and off topic, but, da blob, you remind me of the character from Brandon Sandersons book Elantris. The character Hrathen. After reading that book, and coming back here and reading posts by you, his character and you have somehow merged in my head, haha, so my imagery of him is who is talking when I read your posts XD
I don't know if you'll take it insultingly or positive, or even know what I'm talking about, but I see it as positive thing.
Well of course i had to look any potential compliment up.... (It will work)

Hrathen: The Tireless Conqueror. Hrathen comes to the city of Kae as a herald of the legions of the Holy Jaddeth. As a gyorn, a head priest of the Shu-Dereth religion, it is Hrathen's anointed task to convert the city's noblemen to Shu-Dereth, therefore avoiding the inevitable bloodshed that is associated with a revolution. No other takes this holy duty more seriously than Hrathen himself. He swears an oath to himself and to Jaddeth that he will convert the people of Arelon, he will not allow them to be slaughtered in a needless battle for dominance.

But Hrathen is a man haunted. Haunted by the ghosts of the past, of his failure to prevent a bloody revolution in the once peaceful nation of Duladel. Haunted by his own questions of faith, and what it means to truly serve his lord, Jaddeth. Haunted by his time spent at Dahkor monastery, and the brutal torture he suffered at the hands of its monks. But Hrathen vows to overcome these demons, he vows to be the unwilling Kae's savior. Through the dust and ash of all they love, Hrathen will drag them, screaming, to the light of Shu-Dereth.

The sands of time flow constantly as Hrathen locks wills with Sarene and her unyielding group of followers, and as each grain falls through the glass, Hrathen can hear softly, but ever so clearly, the baying of the dogs of war and the howls of the beasts of Dahkor Monastery.

Okay how about

eudemonia = The Oracle from the Matrix?


Oracle: Sorry, kid. You got the gift, but it looks like you're waiting for something.
Neo: What?
Oracle: Your next life, maybe. Who knows? That's the way these things go.

Oracle: Do you know what that means?
[points to a banner]
Oracle: It means know thy self. I wanna tell you a little secret, being the one is just like being in love. No one needs to tell you you are in love, you just know it, through and through.

Neo: What happens if I fail?
The Oracle: Then Zion will fall.

Neo: But if you already know, how can I make a choice?
The Oracle: Because you didn't come here to make a choice, you've already made it. You're here to try to understand why you made it.

Noddy = Shakespeare's Brutus?

BRUTUS
Be patient till the last.
Romans, countrymen, and lovers! hear me for my cause,
and be silent, that you may hear. Believe me for mine
honour, and have respect to mine honour, that you
may believe. Censure me in your wisdom, and awake
your senses, that you may the better judge. If there is honor,
you may believe me
be any in this assembly, any dear friend of Caesar's, to
him I say, that Brutus' love to Caesar was no less than
his. If then that friend demand why Brutus rose
against Caesar, this is my answer: Not that I loved
Caesar less, but that I loved Rome more. Had you
rather Caesar were living and die all slaves, than that
Caesar were dead, to live all free men? As Caesar loved
me, I weep for him; as he was fortunate, I rejoice
at it; as he was valiant, I honour him; but, as he was
ambitious, I slew him. There is tears for his love; joy
for his fortune; honour for his valour; and death for his
ambition. Who is here so base that would be a bond-
man? If any, speak; for him have I offended. Who
is here so rude that would not be a Roman? If any,
speak, for him have I offended. Who is here so vile
that will not love his country? If any, speak, for him
have I offended. I pause for a reply.
.

EDIT: I can't help but see Noddy as a character in a Shakepearian tragedy, but i think I missed with Brutus (?) any better suggestions?

I've been trying to characterize you Blob, but your pretty unique.
The best I can come up with is Superman in some of his darker stories, the ones where he finds himself caught balancing on that fine line between saviour and dictator.

This is partially in jest, but I found it funny.

Apparently I'm Ferdinand, the duck, from Babe. Basically a weird, overanalytical duck that has lots of harebrained ideas and a love of independence/freedom.

I had no idea what you were talking about at first, hahaha. But now I remember, me comparing you to hrathen. I should go find that post and see what responses there are o.O

I actually thought this thread was going to be about how online personalities are different than real life personalities (As is the case with myself and Melkor, and probably many other people here, potentially.)

Then again, that may not be the case. I dunno. ^_^

I don't really categorize any of you as specific fictional characters, but i do try to see how well you all fit into different... tropes? or does the word tropes only apply to actual fictional characters?

Anyway i do analyze you till i have a rudimentary understanding of your looking glass self, and that's all i really need to know. after all this is a forum, your true personality isn't what you display here, it is what you want others to see, or how you see yourself.

speaking of which i have found that a very large amount of you have a dark, cynical looking glass self. This is common among intelligent, intuitive people, but is not a good thing. Its a form of self deception.

Editor One = Obi-Wan Kenobi. TEACH ME!!!

Da Blob is like... one of the people in the council or Elrond who tried to hold back the Fellowship of the Ring, or one of the Galatic Senators who only placed sanctions on the Trade Federation for invading Naboo. Conservative, set in ways, stubborn, only minding his own objective. Even though he pretends to be, he's not really up for discussing anything with an open mind.

and to follow the analogy, Claverhouse is Senator Binks. (lol, why did they give that idiot any authority???)

I personally remind myself of Deb from the movie Napoleon Dynamite. I can't think of a fictional character I've idenitified more strongly with. (sorry to bring that movie up)

I have been trying to come with a worthy comparison, but for some odd reason this popped into my to mind and i will have to post it to get it out of my mind so I can continue to search for something more appropriate

Hmmm, well for what it is worth here is my self assessment


Da Blob = The Wizard of OZ


YouTube- Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain.

However, this thread has proven to be a little more thought - provoking than originally intended. If there is any validity in it, I am seen as cartoon duck with superhuman powers whose job is that of a fanatical priest.

The problem is that seems to be just as valid an image as some of the others I have been given. Once I was at a party, where two different girls told me i looked like someone. For one, it was the Cowardly Lion from the Wizard of OZ and for the other, it was Charles Manson, the murderer and cult leader. The next day I shaved my head and beard...

I truly wonder what the results be if we each polled the people who we think know us, as to what fictional character we remind them of - what kind of a composite would result? With the greater question, yet to be addressed, what is it that is seen when people look at us...?

BTW -Levin hits a little too close to home..:phear:

Tireless Conqueror? I kind of find that a strange description for an INTP.

Daffy Duck is funny, but I'm not sure he strikes me as an INTP either. Daffy Duck is somehow violent, clueless, jealous and an attention whore. I know the violence in cartoons when this was made was more popular. So that excused Daffy still has a more attention seeking personality. I would say Donald Duck is actually closer to an INTP, if not one.

I guess this thread isn't really a discussion?

You think the looney tunes were violent huh? Go watch Invader Zim. :D

I've seen Invader Zim. It was okay. It had a shock value purpose though. Cartoons back in the day were meant to be funny.

I've often thought that Wile E. Coyote was an INTP. He's super intelligent but always messes up because of some stupid detail he overlooks. The road runner would be an ENTP who lives to screw with him.

Which fully reinforces my typing him as hrathen :D

I will detail hrathen here, but it is a total spoiler for the book elantris by brandon sanderson.
Hrathen is a priest charged with the duty of converting an entire nation inside three months. Should he fail, his version of the pope will send armies to destroy them. Eventually, the plot reveals that hrathen was just a decoy, he thought he was to be the peoples savior, and even though he wanted so badly to convert them without bloodshed, he realized he might need an iron fist. So once hrathen realized the true plot, he saved people that had been his direct enemy before.

Where I see the parallel is blob and hrathen are both men grounded strong in faith and logic, who want to play the role of savior, but most see him as the ultimate antagonist rather than the person he is. Which is an inherently good person whose intentions are misunderstood, due to opposing world views.

Toad = Jean Valjean


in Hugo's Les Miserables
"Jean Valjean (a.k.a. Monsieur Madeleine, a.k.a. Ultime Fauchelevent, a.k.a. Monsieur Leblanc, a.k.a. Urbain Fabre, a.k.a. 24601 a.k.a. 9430) — Convicted for stealing a loaf of bread, he is paroled from prison nineteen years later. Rejected by society for being a former convict, Bishop Myriel turns his life around. He assumes a new identity to pursue an honest life, becoming a factory owner and a mayor. He adopts and raises Fantine's daughter Cosette, saves Marius from the barricade, and dies at an old age"

Behind you, kicking you in the ass
I'd like some thoughts on what fictional character I'd be. Please no anime as I don't know any of the characters.

Saffy - I'm sorry but I'm having a hard time coming up with the right character at the moment. Maybe that's a good thing ;). I'll keep thinking though. I imagine there is an anime character that suits you to a T though so I am unqualified to answer.

Ermine - Ralph from Lord of the Flies. (sorry for the gender switch) Something about you reminds me of a civilizing nature. (Perhaps that's in contrast to some of the more anarchistic attitudes around here :p) I would imagine you to be one who sets about to create structure and purpose while others around you give in to baser instincts. The last hold-out of civilization. My 2 cents worth anyway.
