From the EQ Glossary (http://amtgard.pinkpig.com/bards/eqglossary.htm)
"toon - (n.) [Possibly a European term, from cartoons like "Roger Rabbit"
who keep coming back every time they 'die'. More probably originated on
Sierra's original online world, The Realm. The characters in the game,
while highly customizable, were very cartoonish - thus, the reference to
"toons."] Any Player Character. e.g. "Ya, I just started this new toon
tonight.""
