@Lugubrious I'll try to write out the battle for now, perhaps next round. But for how long will the battle continue before the other heroes show up?

How light hearted and/or meta can we go with this i.e. could I be Patrick Star or a deck of cards from solitaire, the Linux Penguin, etc. And indeed what constitutes a game? I.e. would clippy or bonzi buddy count? Or the computer of Zork? Regardless fairly interested in this and once some reading is done and questions answered I will work on a sheet this weekend

Hey there, glad to see you're interested!

Your character can be lighthearted, but must be both a character and a character that originated from a game, so all the examples you listed would not qualify. It's difficult to qualify what exactly makes a game (for instance, saying digital media for entertainment purposes that necessitates interaction from a player would no doubt have loopholes), but I can go on a case by case basis if need be.

To clarify, this means that the first ever appearance of the character must be originally in a videogame rather than the character simply appearing in a videogame? Or would the iteration of Patrick Star from Spongebob: Battle for Bikini Bottom work? Or the Linux Penguin from Tux Racer?

<Snipped quote by Andreyich>

Your first assertion is correct, although be aware that I made an exception for Geralt who's originally from a book. A character simply appearing in a game is not enough. No Patrick, no Goku, no Sam and Max. In fact, even original characters from licensed games for non-game properties are not eligible, like the main character from Star Wars Fallen Order, for instance.

Very well then, would a villager from minecraft be okay? Got a few other ideas but this is the main one

Alright, would you say Ellis from Left 4 Dead would be a better one?

@Lugubrious So I need to ask before applying this one question: Any era of gaming character can be played? I have a specific character in mind from the SNES era: Frog from Chrono Trigger.

@Lugubrious Okay I'm going to get right to making a CS.
