Elric of Malignatius?

In my semi-regular habit of pondering what I'd play in an FS game (if I were ever to play rather than GM) I was pondering creating a character based on Michael Moorcock's Elric of Melnibone (one of my all time favourite fictional antagonists).
The question is how to reflect him in game? A Decados noble seems the obvious choice but are there any other ideas?

Li Halan noble with a demon heirloom sword? (Note, I know very little about Elric or the setting)

Pre conversion Li Hilan is a good one. House Thana is another possibility. Decados, as you said.

*slaps forehead* - unconverted Li Halan makes a lot of sense - thanks guys (this will of course probably end up as an NPC in my campaign...but hey

)
Oh...and Angelman you should read some Elric (and the other Eternal Champions)... the right kind of weird fantasy

Great idea!
I always loved Elric - the poor sod!
Talk about family issues

The whole time constraints issue is why I opted for audiobooks when driving to and from work. Only problem is that sometimes I take detours to finish a chapter

Heh heh, that's funy, Bearman

Audiobooks is something I should look into. I neither have a car nor use of one, but there should be other times where I can get some audiofiction on! I wonder if one can listen to an audiobook while working (as in writing stuff)?

Don't think it's compatible with any real work but doing dishes, mowing the lawn, doing laundry, tech-redeeming a toaster and such are all great times for audiobooks

Just beware the many crappy editions of ancient magnetic tapes converted to mp3s out there

But I'm getting off topic here!

I just started with Audible.com - I have to say that audible books is a good way to pass the commute. The books are too expensive though.
