I'm fond of the Patton saber, and kyu gunto jutsu.
I like the F90MBR Modular Bullpup Rifle.
I like Owlbears, carrion crawlers, and gelatinous cubes. Outside of D&D, I always liked the Myrka from Doctor Who and the Xenomorph from Alien.
Tensor's Floating Disk, it'd be so handy to have a frickin' mind shelf. And cantrips.
I like fighters and fighter-mage-thieves.
Lodestone, sunstone, fire piston.
Sandboxy, that leads into multiple possible modules.
Classic multi-era historical/fantasy mashup mess, or cassettepunk space.
High fantasy, low fantasy, exploration, genre mashups and crossovers.
My main? A hot mess of gender dysphoria, scars and daddy issues held together with duct tape and bushido.

A sword. Can be big, can be normal-sized, may or may not be paired with the shield. If I can just be a monster, though, I'm punching and biting people in a brawl, for sure.
>Favourite ranged weapon
Guns. Revolvers. Maybe musket pistols.

Depends on the setting/game. It's usually a dragon of some kind, but in DnD Land it's rhe Bulette

Shit, difficult one. I'm going to go with the humble skeleton. Very versatile and I enjoy necromancy classics. I think Giant Spiders of all varieties are also fantastic for wilderness.
>Favourite magic spell.
No idea. Probably something Illusion-based. Or Charm/Dominate.
>Favourite character type.
Pacifist-ish problem-solver/toolboxer/jack-of-all-trades. Usually involving magic if available, but I can go for literal robots or just a sneaky face, too. It's the problem-solving, planning, and force amplifiers that gets my blood pumping.

I like to smash things with hammers, although I'm also partial to grappling and brawling; my favorite melee character ever was actually a Nechronica Baroque who would latch on to a target and basically just eat them to death.

>Favourite ranged weapon
Rocket lawncher, or anything else that's highly explosive.

>Favourite monster
The game I'm running currently features a lot of giant crabs which have been unexpectedly amusing to run. They keep giving the party dumb problems and being unexpectedly dangerous.

>Favourite magic spell
Uuuhhh... I don't play casters a lot but I generically like melee casters who are in the thick of it. Shields, weapon blessings, that sort of thing.

>Favourite character type
Good guys of all flavors. I recently discovered I enjoy playing Lawful Good guys who are kind of assholes about it during a Fallout game and that was a lot of fun. Walked around being a well meaning but sanctimonious (but often correct...) Brotherhood Knight and it mostly lead to very fun RP when the party's raider wasn't mad at him for wanting to execute violent psychopaths.

>Favourite non-weapon item/gadget
Don't have one in particular, although our Fighter in my 5e game has gotten a lot of laughs/use out of a bag of ball bearings

>Favourite type of adventure/mission
Ruin delving. I am a filthy scav at heart and I love digging up old treasure and things from the past.

>Favourite setting
Fallout or Nechronica (if you can really consider the latter a setting)

>Favourite genre
Uhhh... sci fi I guess? Im not super partial.

>Descriptive adjective for your character
