ArborGold 85 Share Posted November 30, 2015 (edited) So I've gotten back into the server and really like the feel to it, but the character I created is just 'eh' and average for me. I feel like I could have a more fulfilling experience if I had a character that was better for the environment. With little friends on the server I need help from you, the people of the inter-webs and the forums, to aid in my quest to find a character that is needed on the server. I don't want anything big or important but something that can keep me entertained as much as it will others. Of course, the end goal should be to produce interesting role-play, however, I don't feel like all your suggestions will fall into this category. So if you're going to post something to the tune of 'mage with bubble-gum shooting powers,' or 'princess of the dragons of the moon,' try to resist your urge just this once. So commonly I play characters that try to weasel their way into politics. Book smart, never overly brutish, mostly due to the fact that I am pitiful with combat role-play compared to many. I'd prefer something that wasn't religious, and sorry to all those religious orders out there. Its not because I don't like religious role-play, which I do as I do it commonly, I just don't have enough experience with the church lore to be anything to them. Building a business is a possible option but normally businesses stagnate and get very little role-play. Also keep in mind I don't have any superior applications accepted so it will have to be no magic for me. Basically I like playing character who are crafty but are still cordial and respectable. If anyone wants me to join them in anything just post below and I will get back to you as quick as I can, and if I am interested in an offer, I will take to sending you a message via to forums or skype, if you'd like to leave your information below. Also, as a side note, even though I have only recently returned to role-play on LotC I still have precious experience. Besides have various genres under my belt I have roughly ten years of role-play experience in and outside of the game, be it Dungeons and Dragons or forum role-play. I enjoy it all, but I'd like to see how I can play a part in this community. If you need anything more than this information, please, contact me as I have stated above. Thanks again!

tilly 5115 Share Posted November 30, 2015 What I would suggest is maybe trying different race groups. I've rp'ed with you (both of us being humans), and you seem to have mastered the art of that race! Maybe it's time to try something new! Challenge yourself with playing something that you may have to read up on. I'm doing said thing by playing a high elf, and I'm having a lot of fun! Plus the community is pretty chill. Though, the choice is yours. Maybe a hobbit or an orc or even a different sub race of human/elf would be a fun time for you. Experiment, and if you don't like that new character you made, it's alright to scrap it and start over.Feel free to pm me if you want further advice. :) 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WuHanXianShi14 0 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Keep in mind that joining new groups such as military orders, guilds or cults and such is a good way to make a stagnant character more interesting. It's an alternative you have as opposed to starting over anew. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LatzMomo 2088 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Sounds like you should play a Halfling, who knows? maybe you can run for mayor soon! I would PM _Jandy_ on the forums or in Game! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nekkore 641 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Play a Gynophobic or Androphobic persona. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argontum 153 Share Posted November 30, 2015 I suggest playing races that are not really commonly used. Halfling might be good, but I don't really like it. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArborGold 85 Author Share Posted November 30, 2015 Thanks for all the suggestions guys but I think I found one that will work for me. Wisearces made a good suggestion by asking me to extend my reach and feel outside my comfort zone of playing the smart human. So I picked a Kharajyr kitten as my character. After playing him for only about an hour or so I think I got the feel for it and liked how it felt. Since he was underage and doesn't speak or walk he is pretty much a cat. Rarely have I ever had to role-play with only emotes and it makes it a fun challenge and interesting role-play for all who are involved. To keep with the tone of not being common with a character I made him a kitten in the Orenian capital. I feel like it will go well. Although he is an innocent kitten now he is a Kha'Tigrasi which means he will bloom into quite the capable warrior, something I've never attempted to do. Altogether I think this will be a good fit for now but once I have these two characters under control I may try a third or delete the human character that I'm finding a bit bland. Thank you all for the suggestions, especially the ones involving broadening my horizons and playing something that isn't commonly played. I don't know how common the Kharajyr are but I haven't seen many so it will be a new experience for not just me hopefully. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tilly 5115 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Khas and humans don't often mesh well - I suggest that you be careful! But I'm glad to have helped you out. :) Have fun! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
