Just asking: What's your favourite UT character? Is it the one you play with (all the time, most of the time?)? What attracts you to this character in particular? Why this character instead of its "twin" (UT2k4 typically uses the same model twice with different faces, and sometimes with different skins. See below for example)? Are there any particular things you dislike, which made this character all the more attractive for you?
I'll start off, of course: For me, it's all about Axon. He has the quiet dignity of the battle-scarred veteran, while looking real cool. The "scar" over his "eye", the numerous dents and scrapes all over his armor further this image. His cybernetic equipment also shows his willingness to sacrifice part of his humanity in pursuit of victory, while not being an ugly genetic mess like the "juggernauts" or, even worse, the "nightmare" people.
I don't play with Axon all the time, but keep coming back to him. I prefer Axon over Xan (his "twin") because Xan does not have that battle-scarred-veteran-feel that I so like about Axon. A particular dislike is psychotic or otherwise mentally deranged or unstable characters. Axon's text bears no such mention.
Does anybody beside me HAVE a favourite character, anyway?
