A Friend's RP Profile - AFriendOfAFriend - 07-16-2013
I. Basic Info
- Characters: Montague Morne
- Primary character: Montague Morne
- Linkshells: N/A
- Primary RP linkshell: N/A
II. RP Style
- Amount of RP (light, medium, heavy):
Medium-heavy. I like to stay in-character when possible, but have no problems with switching to OOC. We roleplayers are not just the characters we play, and I enjoy interacting with the folks behind them.
- Views on RP combat and injuries:
Until the implementation of a PVP system, I believe combat is best left to lotting. Can't really argue with random chance. As far as injuries go, I have nothing against them as long as they aren't permanently crippling. With white magic whisking away almost everything short of death, I see no problem with deep cuts and broken bones. Amputations/beheadings/stabbing vital organs, however, would be a bit of a no-no.
- Views on IC romance:
I fully encourage it. These characters are people, each capable of complex emotions. It should be decided between the players how the relationship progresses, and one should always take care not to take things too far - either in or out of character. I've seen RP romances blossom into real ones, but I've also seen my share of unrequited crushes and ruined friendships. Communication is key.
- Views on non-romantic RP (family ties, etc):
Again, fully encouraged, but try to warn whomever your new family member or bestest buddy is ahead of time. My character not knowing he has a long-lost-relation is all well and good, but when I don't know about it there's a bit of a problem.
- Views on lore:
Learn the lore. Love the lore. The lore is your friend. The lore is the groundwork on which to base your own stories. That being said, the lore is not gospel, and may be bent as needed - though not outright broken.
- Views on chat functions (/say, /linkshell, etc):
With the exception of perhaps /shout, all functions can be used for both in and out of character chat and actions. I tend to use ((text)) to denote anything OOC, with most everything else being from the character's mouth.
