Mechwarrior Charles Finley, loyal servant of the Federated Suns.
Yeah I played him like Bruce Campbell's character from Burn Notice.
He wasn't even really MY character, but rather from the RPG quick start rule sheet.
One of our friends wanted to run a quick campaign, get the toes wet as it were.
So we're trying to track down someone who attempted to kill us.
The party splits up, but we all have someone with us to help out just in case.
I run down a possible suspect and tell the GM I'm going to interrogate him.
"Sure, roll for it."
I rolled 2, fumble.
Without missing a beat, at the table I mimicked a scene from the 24 television show.
Grabbing at thin air, like I have the perp by the lapels, I scream at the table "YOU, WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT BLAHBLHABLAHYAYAYAYA!"
Afterwards I begin breaking down and laughing, alongside some of the others.
I did manage to salvage the character's dignity at one point though.
When we confronted one enemy we tried to tackle, I negotiated with him for information.
While doing this, my arms physically up in surrender, talking real slow and deliberate to the GM, I hear one of the players commenting how his CHA skills are better and he should be negotiating.
The GM turned and said, "Yeah but he's going a good job showing it."
Yeah to this day, if I get flustered, somebody in my group will tease me with "Quick! Interrogation check!" *Drops dice* *begins to make odd strange noises*
I hate you all, but I love you all the same. ;D
