What/Who is your Avatar? Why do you use it?

edited May 2016 in General Chat

Of late my avatar has been Carl Grimes, as I love the character, he's one of my favourites in the comics. I have recently started to use Lydia as I also like the character but mainly its a great drawing by Charlie!

I also tend to change it alot as at certain times i'm into different things.

  • for the most part my avatar is a dreamcatcher. I don't know it become my symbol over the years don't ask me how I cant remember. I have depresstion and insomnia. so it just makes sense to me because I need protection against nightmares and fears.

    sometimes I will change it to a fav anime character like gaara or something abstract artwork.

  • Sam from Sam & Max.

    I REALLY like Sam from sam and max (and Sam & Max in general). Simple as that.

    Asher and Beskha in Game of Thrones for two reasons:

    1. They really need a Telltale avatar.
    2. It's one of my top 5 favorite OTPs in the history of video gaming . It's in the number 2 slot.

    It's Kaito Kid's logo. He's a magician thief from Case Closed (or Detective Conan if you prefer that name) he tries to steal various jewels by using magic tricks in public or private places. He's a cool character so I decided to use the logo.

  • I suspect a majority of you know this, but my avatar is that of the Crooked Man from the Wolf Among Us. As for why I choose him, his appearence reminds me of myself; he is not the most hansome man, yet he looks very suave.

  • Mine is Rhys and Sasha from Tales From the Borderlands wearing Metallica clothing. I use it because

    1. I like Metallica, if my name didn't make that clear enough
    2. Excluding Loader Bot, they are my two favorite original TFTBL characters
    3. I ship them
  • Currently at the time of this message. My avatar is Michael Fassbender's real life character Bobby Glass from the film Hunger, it's a shot after a particularly amazing scene in which an intense and organic verbal standoff happens between he and a priest who was offered to come down and attempt to talk Bobby from leading a supposed hunger strike that will definitely lead to many deaths all in the name of a protest.

    The shot is as haunting as it is just fucking plain badass... "never compromise your ideals."

  • Fassbender is a great actor, Centurian which I think is underated btw I loved him in!

  • Truly. He's one on a high list of actors I'm very much interested in and is followed.

  • Yes he's just one of those actors that never disappoints, he's in the Assassins creed movie. Trailer out today apparently

  • You look like 21 in that picture.

  • Max Caulfield from Life is Strange because this picture was my first 'real' avatar.

  • For a long time, I used Rhys avatar because I love Rhys.

    Now I am using Rodrik avatar because he has a magnificent beard and a handsome face. :)

  • At this moment I'm using a Lemmy avatar (just so if that changes, this statement will remain true for this date). I use it as a form of commemoration of a great musician and one of the godfathers of heavy metal (even though he always claimed they played Rock'n'roll). As you might have known already, he died on December 28th (4 days after his 70th birthday). I've been using it since then.

  • I plan on changing it but mine is Sasha because I wanted to try out the Tales avatars and also because I've never loved a character as much as her.

  • I chose Mamoru Itsuki from Forbidden Siren 2. Not my favorite character, but I choose him because we're both similar in terms of personality and appearance...and we both wear glasses.

  • What a Legend.

  • My avatar is a Mira x Tom (Tira) fanart and I chose this particular one cause I'm a huge shipping trash for these two. Also, I think the fanart's hot af, so...

    And before my current avatar, I used to have a Mira avatar with a flowercrown in her head. The reason I added the flowercrown on her is because I thought it fits well with that expression:

    Looks like I couldn't stay in the sidelines.

    I've had tons of avatars over my time here, here's a few that lasted:

    • The third one from the back was drawn by @Dapnee so I'll give a shout out, I remember her from the TFTBL subforum well.

    • The second one from the back was made by pipas if I remember correctly, it has a funny backstory really.

    These are all in chronological order by the way.

    And of course here's my current avatar:

    Which is a nice shot of Tracer I stole off of one of my favorite overwatch youtubers Unit Losts videos on Tracer thumbnail.

  • Ive never changed my avatar. Its a shuggoth (not sure what it was called in game because ive not owned a console thats series 3 compatible) max. Sam and max is my favorite telltale series and h.p. lovecraft is one of my favorite authors, so combined I get lovecraftian max.

  • my avatar is abel nightroad from the anime trinity blood mainly because hes pretty awesome and im a massive anime fan it just seemed fitting my previous avatars were the stranger from tftb and vash the stampede from trigun after that

  • It was called Max in the game, because that's Max who was corrupted in the end of episode 4. It was stupid really.

  • I've always wondered what your avatar was, now I know.

    Ah yes, I remember. Max is actually Fiona in disguise. :D

    Looks like I couldn't stay in the sidelines. I've had tons of avatars over my time here, here's a few that lasted:

  • Well, I wanted to try the new TftB avatars and since there was no new Loader Bot avatar, I had to compromise. Huehuehue.

  • If you've known for enough time, you would already know that I'm obsessed over Zer0!

  • Major Marquis Warren was my favorite character from The Hateful Eight, so yea.

    "Startin' to see pictures ain't ya?"

  • My avatar is the "Can't hold all these X" meme but with all the upcoming Telltale games. I made that my new avatar around the Batman announcement as I was hyped at the idea of Telltale getting to work with a bunch of big franchises, as I had followed them for years prior to when they became famous and well-known before Walking Dead.

  • My avatar is Ser Royland Degore from Telltale's Game of Thrones.

    Because he is a beast!

  • edited May 2016

    Indeed he is. He's my sentinel :)

    @JonDee013, you're not gonna like this, but...he died in my game :'(.

    But he went out like a champion.

    My avatar is Hotarumaru from Touken Ranbu, a free-to-play browser game only if you have an Japanese ip address. You basically collect humanized historical swords and have them go out to battles, train them, make them do chores, advance to the next area. Send them to get cleaned up if they're too hurt to go to the next battle.

  • Mine is Jet Stream Sam from Metal Gear Rising Revengeance. An amazing character that does the best shit eating grin.

  • WHAT!? I thought you executed Duncan!??

    Indeed he is. He's my sentinel @JonDee013, you're not gonna like this, but...he died in my game . But he went out like a champion.

  • edited May 2016

    I did, but I rewinded and went back to my regular choice for 4 reasons:

    1. I thought it was cheating.
    2. I think Duncan deserves a chance. You don't have to do, but I think he does.
    3. Think of how pissed off Gared would be with his uncle executed by the people who treated Gared like a Forrester for...his whole life, basically.
    4. @VengefulKenny convinced me to.

    I'm really gonna miss Royland, but I stand by my reasons.

    I respect your right to be wrong. ;)
