I'd most likely be some unholy mixture of The Chick, The Token Evil Teammate, and The Team Pet. Okay, I'm lying, I'd really just be The Tagalong Kid. In other words, I wouldn't be a very useful addition to any team.

The Smart Guy, I guess. Or in situations where I wasn't all that useful, I wouldn't be worth much more to the team than an ineffectual Tagalong Kid. Even though I'm not a kid, except maybe to someone quite old...

Obviously, if I was being ineffectual, I wouldn't be on the team in the first place, so all things considered, I'd probably be The Lancer, particularly if The Hero happens to be your standard Hot-Blooded type.

I tend to be The Smart Guy in real life, even in groups composed of intelligent people (and even a group where I'm clearly not the most intelligent person)—I'm the one who happens to most act the part.

I'm bad, and that's good. I will never be good, and that's not bad. There's no one I'd rather be than me.

The Fixer. I try to be the smart one but there are many smarter than me. I'm large and pretty eccentric but there are plenty of others in my groups stronger than me. And I'm a wimp. Which makes me the balanced one, except I lack the confidence and leadership skills to put me in the hero position.

Also, I tend to befriend a lot of crazy and excitable types who I have to play straight man for. That and people usually turn to me for help and I carry a lot of miscellaneous tools and stuff, so long story short, I'm The Lancer since there isn't a position called The Balance.

Depends on who The Hero is. If it's my Gay Best Friend, then I am, without a doubt, The Lancer. We even have that personality interplay. If, however, someone else is the hero, I am probably The Smart Guy.

My friends tell me that I would be The Smart Guy / The Heart. Apparently I'm a Nice Guy.

Yeah, it really depends on who The Hero is. I can't really see myself as the main character of anything, though - especially not Real Life  *

The Smart Guy, I guess. If we're to take the band metaphor seriously, I do play keyboards/synth in a band...

Despite being a dude, I often play The Chick in my group of friends. Alternatively, I'm also a bit of a Looney.

I want to be The Hero, but most of my social circles tend to have no clear 'leader', so I'm more likely to be The Smart Guy- unless the group is very masculine, in which case I get to be a male The Chick. I tend to play the Token Evil Teammate sometimes.

The Hero or The Lancer, depending on the situation. Me and my friend are both big personalities among my group, so it really depends.

I usually fall into the position of Hero or Smart Guy.

The thing about making witty signature lines is that it first needs to actually be witty.
