Beautiful!

Here's one of my favorites:

 *Ennui* only rouses himself from his torpor to cajole other Warriors to be
more interesting - without, of course, ever contributing anything of
interest himself. Ennui has limited weaponry at his disposal, but his
majestic affectation of boredom provides an effective defense to attacks.
When pressed in battle he will announce his intention of moving on to a more
stimulating forum, but instead he will generally lurk quietly until the
threat passes.

Also, I do believe we have at least one Propeller Head in our midst:

 *Propeller Head* knows just about everything there is to know about
computers and the internet, and is a little mystified that you don't. Often
an inarticulate and clumsy fighter he is still much to be feared because
with a few deft keystrokes he can reduce your computer to a smoking heap of
ruined metal.
