A Question of Character: Fondly Remembered Roleplaying Characters

I began roleplaying a good few years ago now, but I can still remember the first character that I played very well. The setting was the D&D 2nd Ed version of Ravenloft and the character was a Sylvan Elf Ranger known as Tollarion Redswift who travelled the domain of dread in the company of a stalwart Dwarven battle-rager known as Heimdal the Swift (it was "the Furious," but then he found some boots of speed). Anyone else have fond memories of their first, or indeed any character they've played over the years?

Reuse and recycle ideas, it's the hallmark of a good DM.

yeah, the thing is i am no closer to fingin anything out about my characters history

i was think could i have a chat with cora in private and try to get her to give me an account from when her fathers ship crashed and he met me up to when we rescued her.

because i want to know could u do it outside of when we role play ???

The very fact that I made a point of the character not having any recollections of his past is a part of his plotline in the campaign as much as Mannon's missing father is to him.

You can do what you like within reason when it comes to finding out what Cora knows about the subject. Finding her father might answer more of your quetions as well.
