To be an interesting, intriguing, well-written character, there needs to be something to allow the audience to relate to them. That is what the problem is with who wants their character to be "perfect". Perfect characters will never be strong, and strong characters will never be perfect, because WE (those who read, who watch, who RP) are not perfect.

RP type: Social

Date: Wedneday November 28th

Active Attendees:
Kirious
Draenen

Summary:

While Draenen tries out a new recipe for barbaqued imp wings, Kirious confronts Raka with a bluff on his past, and she lets out that he once lived out in the mire with two women and then asks him which one he's made contact with. He bluffs again and says that he made contact with the snake, something that Raka takes fairly calmly and just says it was only a matter of time before walking off.

When the hero enters to kill me, I will ask him to first explain to my grandchild why it is necessary to kill her beloved grandma. When the hero launches into an explanation of morality way over her head, that will be her cue to pull the lever and send him into the pit of crocodiles. After all, small children like crocodiles almost as much as Evil Overlords and it's important to spend quality time with the grandkids.

"How hard did you hit him?"
"Quite hard, actually. For some reason he irritated me." They stared back to where the Grolim lay.
"You're getting to be more like Belgarath every day," Silk told him. "You do more damage out of simple irritation than most men can do in a towering rage."
