    I was playing BG2 last night and noticed something... I know this guy who looks EXACTLY like Amoen except for the fact that Ismo has bleached hair! I mean, otherwise they could be twins!

    I wanted to know, does anyone else know people who look like a character in a game?

    [​IMG] I look like the Nameless One when I wake up each morning. ;)

    Stick a tail on my friend Jenny and she'd be Annah.

    My Spanish teacher could pass as Fall from Grace if she had wings.

    I also met two new people at my usual hangout, that are lookalikes. Other is a dead ringer for Nalia, and the other is just like Imoen... Then there's my roommate, who is almost exactly like Mazzy...

    Argh.

    Then there's this guy in my class who looks just like an elf... Odd.
    And I supposedly look either like Viconia or Cernd... Ugh.

    For some reason, you seem to just take someone's portrait and try to fit it in everybody you see.

    Hey!

    I don't do that. I just know really much people! And when I breought the subject up and showed the booklet to my associates, everyone started to do that!

    And, to point out something, if I had to pick one ficctious character I look like, that'd be Ysanne Isard from Star Wars Extended Universe.

    [​IMG] Its hard to say if people really look like celebrities (even BG2 celebs ;) ), or if a person just has that celeb in mind and paints it on an aquaintence.

    I've had many interesting experiences in elevators, etc, where people tell me I look like someone famous. The people who I am a "lookalike" for range from John Travolta, to Etan Hawke, Ben Afflect to Superman. One high school girl at a McDonalds drive in even told me I was a dead ringer for Arnold Schwartzenager!!!!! :rolleyes:

    The moral of the story .... sometimes people see what they want to see. After playing BG2 long enough, even my wife starts looking like Irenicus .... but that's another story :p (joking! :grin:)

    Arabwel: You mean you have one eye blue and one eye red? Nice... :D

    Hmm.. as for the topic, I have a teacher that looks and acts like an orangatang, but other than that, nothing in particular... :D

    No, I don't have the eyes. (Yet. I'm raising money for contacts...) But I do have the hair. :) I liked her hairstyle so much that I dyed mine to match hers. I just can't do the locks free-thing...
