- Chosen one, born with the power of the whatever and blessed by a god(dess) to kill the big bad guy.
- Average joe who grows progressively into a consummate warrior, you cannot have abilities NPCs do not have.
Choose one or propose one.

So number 2?
I always play a monster huntress/adventurer with wanderlust.
Fit body, short-ish hair, live off the land sort of type.

No, what I said. Not what you said.
I like being the Chosen One. No idea when people decided to turn against the idea of prophetic heroes.
Intelligent, nihilistic, and with a wicked sense of humor.I actually think smt does it best, particularly nocturne. Thrust into the world seemingly randomly. So two with a mix of one I guess.

So player decides starting skills, strengths and weaknesses?
average hero always
What about average Joe that becomes the chosen one during the game? Like Gordon Freeman.

Like learning about some nefarious plot midway, then setting off on a quest to stop it?

I love that, honestly. Being an Arisen in DD and an Undead in the Souls games kinda fits the bill of what I'm talking about. You're one among many 'chosen ones' which makes it kinda like an Average Joe situation but you, through sheer willpower, become the most Chosen-est One among the rest.
