Who to be

[Dark Link]

I'm also with Alex on this one. Not only would another straight up heroic figure be welcome, Talindaar makes for a good contrast to Ditto. Plus, it's worth pointing out that Paladins don't serve just a support healing/buffing role, but are also capable of smiting evil entities on their own.

Earthworm Jim sounds like an interesting idea if you're good at humour. But I do agree with DP that the character shouldn't be based on a novelty.
