Gee, and here I was trying to make the question as general as possible.

So, in answer to your question, GP, choose, would, want, blah blah blah.

I was never the one for wizards and other sissy types. I'd be a barbarian, a real warrior. Not one of those who strut around in a tin suit all day to protect themselves from the tiniest scratches. I love my battle scars, and would be willing to show the lady folks all of them.

I would be that little annoying evil guy. The one who back stabs to win. The one who says "I will stop my evil ways!" and when you look back KNIFE in the back. Don't these guys weigh about 110 pounds with pale skin and hunches a little bit? Yeh. I would be one of those. I also want invisablity and be able to fly.

Some sort of spellcaster, Necromancer preferably. It's a ideal career for a lazy guy, who like other people(zombies!) to do all the dirty job.
Chaos Wizard can be an option, since Spells of Mass Destruction are so spectacular.

I would most likely be a necromancer (original, I know). Not to have a mindless horde with with to crush my hated foes (though that may come in time) but to experiment with, refine, and perfect various undad forms, finding a suitable vessel with wich to trancend the mortal coil of my birth and finally be free of the meddling clutches of the so-called "gods".

I would share my trancendant nature (and those of the refined forms that were not chosen) with those I find worthy of eternity and those of boundless ambition, some at their behest while others would be denied the choice. This I would do to shape the world. To see mortal reject (or in some rare cases accept) immortal, immortal enslave mortal, and gods atempt to smite both for their wickedness. I would watch as the world bathed itself in blood and dust, stepping in only to cull the extremists of either side. Then, when the blood had dried and the dust had settled, when the wars of dominance and ignorance had ended, with niether side the clear victor, the mortal races would be left with a choice that had not previously existed. From that day forward they will be able to determine the result of their own mortality. They will no longer be limited to salvation and damnation, but instead may remain in the world of their birth. The followers of the gods would be comprised of only those who truly seek an existance in the next world, to serve a being that they see as greater than themselves. The gods would have to earn their worshipers, for mortals would never again have to truly fear what comes after.

Such would be my vision. Such would be my goal.

posted by Atrocities:
Quote:
A mythological warrior of evil with unbeatable powers and a wicked desire to kill all the stupid people that infest the realm. I would ride a huge black horse named Armagedon, and command fear where ever I went. I would have a flying dragon named Apoloclips, and together we would rule the weaker beings of the realm or burn them into oblivion.

AND

You will be given one chance to convert or face my wrath. "You can no more evade my wrath than you could your own shadow." Kneal before your master and pray that I might spare your life and only take your women for the night.

ALSO

I would have all the caves filled with a nerve type gas and then sealed for all time. I would place demon warriors to gaurd all the sealed cave entrances and have my minions partrolling the mountains searching for any who dare defy my command that caves are off limits.
Ummm, could you make my fantasy world NOWHERE NEAR Atrocities?
Thank You!

Don't worry, I squished him with a falling cow.

But, if you want, choice of which fantasy world is also yours.
