Similar or different?

[aivea]

When creating characters, did you chose traits similar or different to your own?

Aside from the rather wordy way of speaking, Aivea is very different from the way I am OOC. Almost opposite actually!

Er...

*looks at her gazillion NPCs* Eh heh heh.

I'll just focus on Alethia and Talon since they're my originals and more like PCs than NPCs.

Alethia is somewhat more like me. The Water part at least is definately me, as is the aversion to conflict and things like that. Talon isn't like me, but I didn't intend that. I was basing him off another book character anyway!

I try and keep my characters different from myself, but I see more and more of myself in Acqua every day. *laugh*

Actually my characters are chosen from a variety of personality types in hopes to see how you guys react to them. I want to write a novel at some point and whenver I get an idea for a character I make one to represent it on one RP board or another. I havn't created a good bad guy yet, although I think you will see a change in Faren's warm and fuzzy exterior soon enough .

[Kender Bard]

You're an author too?

SWEET!

*gives Adris a medal of awesomeness* So are Northern and I. We co-write stuff a lot. In fact, Naruta started out as a story between the two of us about Acqua, Talon, Alethia, and Amaro.

*Accepts medal with pride and a salute*

It is something I like to do and am told even by those that don't know me that I am good at it... I have the motivation, and some of the characters, I just have to get around to putting it all together.

Looks like we all like to write! Well, that's a common thing with those who RP.

Chast is a lot like me : Curious, a little shy and nervous with people at first but then become very sociable, likes to laugh^^

But Elvira is more like my opposite, but not at that point. I don't have her strong will and personnality, but I'm willing to help like her.

[Northen Light36]

And speaking of the novel, it's your turn sis. I'm growing old waiting!

[Kender Bard]

I don't know about the rest of you, but heavy role-playing sucks the ability to write on anything else right out of me.

[Northen Light36]

I know sis. *grin* I'm just doing my younger sisterly duty and bugging you to death.
