    We actually had an NPC in Vampire: The Masquerade who was, of course, a Malkavian, who truly believed in the Almighty Friend Computer. He wore an all yellow-suit and was called Smiley because he always smiled and asked us "are you happy, citizen?". Also reminded us that the computer was watching.

    An UtterCold Assault necromancer who sends his undead advanced wyvern zombie into combat, letting it die, while spending six rounds buffing himself before entering melee combat and getting smacked down.

    True story, the guy's an idiot.
