It's hard to make a character wholley unlike oneself (at least for me) that's still satisfying to play. So yeah, we probably have a lot in common, which means if we ever found ourselves in the same party we'd probably have to death battle to see who stays (that's how it works, right?)

Heh... You better hope that I'm not thinking the same way as you, or you'd be role playing with a Succubus. 😈

But seriously, I guess it just takes a lot of practice to write characters far different from you. The protagonist of my debut novel is pretty much my Alice Peerbane.

And that's with about a dozen years of intermittent practice. I guess it just wasn't important at that time for me to come up with a protagonist who's that different from me.
