Sounds like Westley from The Princess Bride…
Nope, good guess though…
erislover?
If you were just starting out and wanted help building leadership skills, who would you talk to?
I was just strolling along a street in Liepzieg and, suddenly, I smelled smoke! It was me!
lissener! 
“He had a remarkable love…” - unless it is, in fact, erislover.
“Who would you not have expected to associate with bears?”
“Who should we talk to about all these darned elves that need killin’?”
“If you were just starting out and wanted help building leadership skills, who would you talk to?”
“I was just strolling along a street in Liepzieg and, suddenly, I smelled smoke! It was me!”
And a new one from me : “Who would I talk to about Hitchhiker’s Guide trivia, mostly?”
lissener??
When the common man is done hallucinating, they realize this is the actual successor to Elizabeth.

RealityChuck?

I could, but you’re missing one important word of my clue. 
There are, of course, no rules to that effect - only the common sense doctrine that if we have too many active at once, some will fall through the cracks and go unanswered. It’s supposed to be fun for everyone, not just the person who can ask the most questions.
My guess on this is Goldilocks, at the moment. Never posted, but a valid member of the board.
YES to InvidiousCorgette and jsgoddess, it was indeed lissener.
Actually, jsgoddess, your answer still makes perfect sense - I was, however, shooting for a bit more indirect reference.
Alright then, but next time, don’t make up a game that’s so diabolically fun, okay?
