For one reason or another White Wolf's Word of Darkness continues to be one of the most popular choices for the online text roleplaying games that are MUSH and MUX. Over the years some concepts have been done to death. In fact, they've been done to death, poorly resurrected and then done to death all over again. Some character concepts are just so clichéd that a Barbarian called Conan would wince. Other character concepts were just cheese to begin with. Now, after too long, here's your chance tie down these crappy clichés and vote for the worse ones. Enjoy. P.S. You can click on "Total" or "Average" to re-order the list. The more dire, the more cheesy, the more mindnumbly uninspired the concept it - the higher you rate it.
