Well I traded a bunch of bombs to some goblins in exchange for a hostage and then immediatly slaughtered all of them afterward.

So to answer you question, pretty fuckin American.

I have been to multiple realms outside of my home realm to fight evil cults and monsters for no reason other than I think it is the right thing to do. Along the way I have fucked up a good deal of real estate and caused a lot of economic strife because of frequent misunderstandings with my character and local lords, ladies, and law enforcement.

My character isn't fat, but he does have a tendency to poke his nose into the conflicts of others, hastily pick a side, and deal with his new enemies with extreme prejudice. His motivation isn't money and he heals people who need healing, so all in all he is only slightly American.

Not that guy, but it's a pretty common thread on the internet for Europeans to shit on Americans. It's a pretty safe bet.

Besides, competent soldiery is one of the few areas the US pretty well dominates at the global level, at the basic and elite levels.

Other character is a young lowlife seeking new opportunities and new life in a distant land, managed to raise capital robbing merchants and doing wetwork for his friend, wants to start a business with his childhood friend's connections. About 50% American, 50% Australian.

There is a bit of a difference in tone, yeah. He's a bit more subdued in Fo4. I suppose getting nuked from orbit will do that to a guy.

In a mutants and masterminds, I made a person with no powers, but a red white and blue super suit that was dubbed 'Freedom Eagle'. I flew around spreading democracy, getting into fights with party members that were not red-blooded american born and raised. All of my signature moves had names like "Liberty fist, Great Justice, Freedom Barrage, etc." and in the end, I sacrificed my life to protect the red, white and blue and what it stood for.

No regrets.

Exactly. I scuffled with the party but didnt actually fight with any of them. We argued, debated, actually played it like it was real-world and we were living our characters. It was a lot of fun.

The last boss was something we actually were not supposed to fight, we were meant to hold him off until the big beefy 'superman' of our campaign could fight him, but he was flinging around fireballs and meteors like a well-lit russian bar brawl.

I said 'fuck it, no one is hurting my american people' grappled his ass, spent a hero point to overboost my thrusters (I could fly 64,000 MPH with my suit) and launch himself and me into the sun.

The last thing my party saw was me giving them a mighty salute as I flew like a majestic eagle into a flaming ball of life-giving fusion.

God bless america.

American in the lafayette-sense but actually more of a cross between Kociusko and Steuben. In fact, if he wasn't french and was fighting more for money and cute camp assistants, he would be von Steuben.

She was born in America and is an American citizen.
She's also the true heir of an ancient and evil kingdom who's very name is synonymous with adversity.
She hides from combat, utilising her impressive abilities to avoid fights altogether. She is non-confrontational and always attempts to de-escalate situations she can not run from.
If forced to fight she is overly defensive and seeks to just run away.
She is honest to a fault and reserved. Often letting others take the lead.
She has been progressively making friends among her enemies, which coupled with her birth-right, has made many others question her alliances and which side she is on. This also means she has fewer enemies seeking her death.
She recently attempted to commit suicide by cop. It didn't actually work and she got a hug instead.

She also isn't all that patriotic towards America and wishes she was born back in her mother's former land, a fictional country in Scandinavia.
Mostly because she was raised on overly romanticised stories of the place.

So whilst she's American, I don't think she's very 'American' at all.
>>
>gritty cowboy themed futuristic gunslinger
yeah I think Im pretty fucking american

Basically a cross between Teddy Roosevelt and Big Boss, leading Humanity's forces against the Ayy Menace in glorious nuclear combat.

If that's not American I don't know what is.

Mostly he annihilates shit and claims to be on the side of right. His background in alchemy, knowledge of explosives and ability to reform his body makes him the una-bomber on crack. Except instead of packages, he delivers himself in cakes, packed with explosives, pops out screaming and hits the button. Then he releases some obvious propaganda afterward, confusing people as to how he survived.

The party keeps trying to turn him in without letting him know it's them, but noone has realised he isn't actually a Mage yet so they're going about it the wrong way.

Ex-Colonial Marine (as HOORAH DEVIL DOGS SEMPER FI DO OR DIE as the modern US Marines are), born and raised on a farming colony (Read: Space Nebraska). Speaks with a country twang, his favorite food is steak, his favorite drink is Bourbon, and he collects antique firearms.

Also has a short temper and curses like a sailor at the best of times.

He is painfully American and gotdamn proud of it.
