As a side note, I love breaking these people's brains by making jokey characters or obvious homage characters who are like legit in-world role play characters that fit better in to the lore than most.
My Tyreal homage, Sword of Justice, is a great example of this. >.>
Oh, you mean like my Blackarachnia homage character from Virtue who was conscripted into Arachnos and even forcibly given a crab-pack and multiple other 'upgrades' meant to bring/keep her in line for her constant minor rebellions against Recluse from within, who eventually managed to escape blueside?
