The Dragon Lord
This, quite simply, is what happens when you are familiar with a bunch of different genres at once, and ask yourself, "what would happen if they met?"
Each different RPer will represent a different genre of creation- anything from superheroes to mech pilots to RPG protagonists to '80s-style action heroes. Each character will live and act by the tropes common to their genre (for example, is you represent harem protagonists, you'll be rather meek and unassuming, but every female [and some male] characters you bump into will basically be made into your love interests; if you represent '90s-style anti-heroes, you'll be near-constantly angry and brooding, dropping curse words at random moments for little to no reason, and every piece of clothing you wear will be dark, damaged, or both). This means you accept the advantages and weaknesses of your archetype. BE WARNED that things from outside your genre can affect you, provided your genre has no reasonable answer (for example, if you represent wacky children's cartoons, you will have an absurd number of easy ways of escaping most physical harm, by simply pulling ridiculous dodges or instant injury repair, but if someone like the aforementioned ultra-edgy '90s anti-hero drops too many swear words, you will react just like the media watchdogs demand such characters should- basically dropping into a fetal position and instantly stopping all the zany antics that would normally protect you).
I'd like to get a huge RP for this one, 8 or more RPers not counting myself, to represent as many different genres as possible. Interestingly, you do not have to be a straight-out protagonist. You could represent an anime rival, a superhero sidekick, a member of the resident Goldfish Poop Gang (a small group of minor villains destined to lose over and over again), et cetera, provided you don't represent an out-and-out villain regardless of genre.

I like this idea.
