[ooc]Here's the game. Pick a real person and, based on the name alone, give a brief description of their role in your upcoming fantasy-adventure blockbuster. Ten words maximum, not including the name itself.

I'll begin:[/ooc]

Evander Holyfield: traveling priest, protector of the poor, and occasional miracle-worker.

[ooc]Your turn.[/ooc]
I move quick: I'm gonna try my trick one last time--
you know it's possible to vaguely define my outline

Élisabeth Depardieu: High countess of Vardenshire, engaged to Baron Klosterman.

[ooc]Why Ms. Depardieu? I picked a spot on wikipedia and kept clicking until I got to a name I liked. In fact, it might make the game a bit more interesting to do something along those lines... (but with rules)[/ooc]

For finite types, like human beings, getting the mind around the concept of infinity is tough going.  Apparently, the same is true for cows.
