If I get a new (computer) RPG I might spend an hour or more just messing around with the character creation, putting together a character I really like. Anyway, I really like char gen in games - sometimes it's the most fun part. Similarly, I get rather annoyed if anyone tries to control my character in an RPG (doesn't really happen though, the people I play with :)), because that character is mine and if anyone's gonna decide what kind of action they're about to try and take, or how they're gonna react to a situation, it's me. I wouldn't want to be using someone else's character - I'd feel like I was "playing them wrong", having them do stuff they might not actually do because I don't know their personalities like their original creator does. I'd feel like I was trying to write a fan-fiction or something. I'd never want to play a pre-existing character in any RPG (or write about them in a story).
