Just something a bit different.
Who is yours?
My Character: Jano Saint Clair (AKA: Bad Vibes) has been around since 1997, and has recently been updated to H2 rules.
He is a level 17 Rogue Scientist (with a focus on robotics)
He has 3 Majors powers and 3 minor powers (as of the new update) (developing powers table) (was 2 and 2)
Minors:
Energy Expulsion: light
Healing factor
SuperHuman strength (update)
Majors:
Sonic Speed
Vibration
Dimentional Room (16x10x10 foot +2 foot per level) "Personal" dimensional space (update)
Appearance:
Metallic black skin with light grey strips
No hair
White eyes.
He has been to England, Japan, China, Russia, both North and South America, Atlantis, And Africa. (has not been to Alaska Germany, Australia, or earths orbit).
He's been to Phaseworld and hopped around in the 3 galaxies, Visited Wormwood for a moment then decided to get out.
He has Fought Vampires and a Vampire Familiar in South America (lost a Coalition Skycycle in that mess.) (First adventure) made friends with an Atlantian undead slayer and a few others. Hopped around trying to Rescue a Party member taken by splurgorth slavers. he and his party were ran ragged.(worst of it was all the chasing was pointless and a goose chase around the planet and megaverse as the character had never left atlantis.)
He started with Plastic man armor. But while in Japan upgraded to the IA-100 Infiltrator, then in Phaseworld picked up a set of Naruni NE-C20 Camouflage Variable Armor.
He has 1 of each "new" in his dimensional room.

When I post an idea, game balance is my only concern. For rules see rule zero and for canon look at RUE PAGE 372. Only 2 questions need consideration is it fun? Is it balanced?
Gamblers fallacy:(Example): Coin flips are the most common example of the gambler's fallacy. For instance, in a game of heads or tails, many people will bet on tails if there have been several heads in a row.

Re: Share your oldest Character
LOL... per my post in heroes unlimited power combinations, my longest surviving characters are a pair of immortal spirits of light (powers2) with powers that grow with experience.
I was allowed to choose powers instead of rolling randomly.
Dane and Rifka AKA Kitbash and Cameo
He's got APS light, shrink, alter facial features, technoform, metal manipulation and speed tasking
She's got APS light, shrink, alter facial features, technoform, alter physical body and shapechanger
He's an operator/mechanic who likes restoring old cars, she's a xenobiologist/medic.
They started out as nomadic adventurers in a travelling circus in the 1800s, moved to the american west in the mid 1800s
where they finally settled into their roles as a healing/repair/scout team. In modern times they both like collecting famous faces.
Game was 8 hour sessions once a week for 5 years between 2007 and 2011. Spanned a time period from the 1800s to modern day. Started in denmark, worked down to japan, then american old west in the 1850s. Game group broke up and I've recently had to move states, so they'll be on hiatus for a while I expect. I think they'd be a lot of fun to run in a rifts campaign, particulary as vampire hunters.
So real world time 5 years beginning in 2007 composed of roughly 280 8 hour sessions. Even though I used to play 2e D&D daily over summer vacation theres no character I had from those days last longer than 4 months. Second longest running character might have been our pathfinder rise of the runelords. Definitely longer than 4 months. Ran an evolutionist summoner.
But yeah. Longest playtime 5 years and also the characters with the highest age. Rifka is definitely older than Dane though.

Re: Share your oldest Character
I think I have mentioned it, but my oldest long running character is Alecia DeVreis.
she started out origionally as a special forces char from rifts Mercenaries.
never really did much in 3 galaxies, or phase world, but she went through the Macross (robotech) stuff multiple times, did crossovers to other universes such as star wars, star trek, original Battlestar Galactica, etc.
Due to things happening through her various adventures, she is now a kind of Weak- mid level God, and claims the title of being the Goddess of high tech warfare. and has some ties to both the Norse, and Greek-Roman Pantheons.

Re: Share your oldest Character
I'll offer a few:
Oldest in the sense of lasting the longest: The character Curbludgeon in the MMO Kingdom of Loathing
Oldest in the sense of being created earliest, by game:
Rifts: A Great Horned dragon hatchling that got immediately killed. Second would have been a Cyberknight upon which I tried to shove every body mod I could that was available at the time(psyscape implants, bio-borg symbiotes, bionic arm, wormwood symbiotes)
Palladium: A TMNT Wolverine not unlike the Marvel character
D&D: A 1E Ranger/Monk dualclass with Psionics, because casters still win back then
Toon: A sentient picture of a door that could hold stuff and offer a bit of teleport, but was mainly interested in getting people to run smack into it.
Cowboys&Indians: a Chinese former railway worker that acted like Caine in Kung Fu. This was wildly insensitive.
Characters in games like GURPS and Shadowrun weren't particularly memorable.

Re: Share your oldest Character
Shon would be my first and oldest rifts character. Started around 1994, stopped playing around 2000
My oldest D&D character is Lance the Elf Ranger, level 21. He started around 1994, and I continued to play him for many years. Seems like 2015 was the last time I played him.

I also play a lot with the D&D character Nickolis, a Black Smith and level 23 Cleric who identifies more as a Blacksmith than anything else. He is able to craft intelligent weapons up to artifact level.
