If you joined make-up era KISS and had to create your own persona, who would you be? Extra points if you can come up with something that's not an animal.

I'll get back with my answer. It's a tough question.

Every now and then, a genuinely inspired thread appears on ILM, and it restores my faith. Cheers, cw28!o

As an extra rhythm guitarist (allowing Paul to prance about like the nancyboy he is), I would be "Baron Von Sophisticate". My costume would be a futuristic tuxedo with white dinner jacket with exaggerated shoulder pads. I'd play a guitar shaped like a mar tini glass, and my makeup would consist of a monocle. Each time Gene bellowed, grimaced or spat fire, I'd chuckle suavely, and light my cigarette (in a cigarette holder, naturally) from his flame.\o

And then there's this related question.

For some reason I expected this to have 50 people crossposting that they wanted to a) be that dark lord guy from Star Wars 1, and b) be Strongbad

I'd be the embarrassed Kiss member. I guess I'd mostly have rouge on for that. Or maybe lady's pinch, so as not to seem whorish! Mostly because I loathe Kiss. Most boring rock band ever? Ok, so they probably aren't, but I like that feeling in my knee.

A pandabear would be the most obvious choice, even if Immortal already used it.

Or chessboard-Kissy. Throw on a cape and a king's crown and demand to play Music From The Elder.

very nice answer alex in NYC ... 50 extra points for exquisite detail.

I would paint a ying yang on my face and go with some sort of asian mystique character. I'd wear some sort of over-the-top karate uniform. And there would be a huge gong on stage that would emit tons of pyro every time it was hit. That would be my "thing." I guess that would make me the drummer. Then I would play my kit with nun-chucks.

okay, that's just silly.

... or I would just be King Diamond and join the band.

I would be Gwar - all of them
