| Message | i was looking over my rp charecters and the pics i used for them when it occured to me all of them are somewhat alike. they are all powerful, or have the potential to be and self relient. i didnt realize that i had made them all so similar in personalities, although they are different in small ways. look through your own char and see if you find them to be simular. do you think we make them in our own image? or in an image we wish we were. perhaps they reflect the mood were in when we create them.

| Message | I try to make all of my characters different but some things I purposely keep the same or similar. For instance, two of my characters have white/silver hair and two have black hair and green eyes (the list goes on in that aspect). They’re all related to the same plot. Otherwise, though, I try to keep them specifically different. Arseniy is a martyr complex young adult who tends to go out of his way for the most hopeless of people and has an aggressive streak---he usually keeps his mouth shut; Synnove is a priestess that helps anyone in need of physical healing or psychological therepy and she tends to be a preachy sort of person; River is a blind child who is very bright but has a bit of aggression and enjoys fighting, unlike the previous two; Xaphan is downright nasty and portrays every dark aspect of my personality---he’s sadistic and self-serving; Savan is a pretty quiet boy with Synesthesia and doesn’t help anyone, nor does he really show much care in himself--he mostly immerses himself in his music and is an introvert.
They show few similarities that I purposely keep to make it easier for me to play them, things that are always true about my own personality, but I try to make each character convey different dispositions I have. |

| Message | Well I’d say we do. Roleplaying is a fun way to be who we want to be. . .who we wish ourselves to be. |

| Message | It’s mostly in our nature to create something we desire to be, which is powerful, self reliant, independent, blah blah blah. But you realise if everyone was like that we wouldn’t have anyone to talk to cos we’d be so busy being "self assured".
Sometimes counting on someone else is the only way to win! That’s why we have teamwork. Cheers, enjoy your Rp-ing. Azuire P.S. Excuse the idealist overtones. Teamwork can get VERY VICIOUS. |
