In fact I asked for a "cute" (or "kawaii" or "chibi") cat, now I don't remember the words but I wanted something nice! :) thank you!

No backstory other than I really like The Guardian Legend, and I think the box art looks awesome.

 

[Deean]

Some character from Granblue Fantasy with awesome design and powerful lore-wise.
Buuuut her unit gameplay is mid because she's not a limited character.

What is your avatar? Does it have a backstory? If so, I’d like to know. OR ELSE I’ll capture the avatar!!View attachment 2559

I always liked this scene and costume from MGRR and when I found out this site allowed PFPs to be GIFs, I had to use one from this scene and I chose this one.

Well, for mine it's no complicated story
I am a big Mega Man fan.
I usually use a PFP from any Mega Man character, but the most common is X's, since I have a certain affinity for him; he's my favorite character in the entire franchise. His games kept me cheerful during those dark times of the pandemic and I still enjoy them

Bird from Cuckoo Clock Of Doom, Goosebumps book No. 28

I really like the TV episode too, mainly because of this one scene, where the sister of the main kid trips him up, then proceeds to faceplant into his own birthday cake, all of his invited friends laugh at him at the party...
My favorite scene.

(Kids can be so cruel)

The name was given to me as a joke by my friend Dave 30 years ago. The profile picture is a Photoshopped screenshot from the Simpsone episode, "A Streetcar Named Marge."

I thought it was fitting because I like old games, and I'm a fat bald guy,

Sig from the Japanese puzzle game Puyo Puyo

Fun fact to those who aren't aware, this game is actually a spinoff of a Dungeon Crawling series by former owner of the Puyo Puyo series Compile called Mono Monogatari.

Another fun fact: Puyo Puyo is SEGA's second best selling franchise behind Sonic the Hedgehog.

Protagonist from Spelunker for NES. I like how he become famous for being the weakest video game character ever.

Dying from falling a couple feet is pretty rough. Is he the weakest though?

What about this guy? Lester the Unlikely won't die from a small fall, but he is pretty useless otherwise.

I love SNESDrunk's review of Lester the Unlikely.

Lester can survive at least two hits, when Spelunker can be killed instantly by nearly anything he touched (even landing on the ground from moderate height). He can even be killed when falling too long without hitting anything.

[MegaDrive1987]

I needed a new one to go with my online name change due to reasons mentioned in another post so it made sense to go with this. Always a place in my heart for the Mega Drive and Sega in general being a 90s kid.

The first thing that came to mind when i create this account was "I really like the sprite of the Robo portrait so why not?"

 

[diet_orange]

Got my collected edition of the old ROM: Spaceknight comics from Marvel in today.Highly recommended if you're big into pulpy science fiction, it's one of my favorites.
