Describe the Character Above You
Posted: Wed Oct 09, 2019 8:35 pm
The rules of this thread are simple: the first poster will name one of their characters, and the next person will describe their mental image of that character. They will then name one of their characters, and so-on.
Note that the idea is not to look at the appearance section of their profiles and copy what was written there. Describe them as you imagine them when you read their name. This may or may not incorporate in-game events; it depends on whether that impacts your image of them.
Think along the lines of more than just face features and clothing; also consider expressions or stance or demeanour, or even actions they might be doing.
The idea is to get an impression of how your characters appear to other people, which is hopefully of interest to you as a writer. It's also a chance to practice describing how other people appear.
I would say focus on V7 characters for now since that's the active version. There's no rule about how fast you can respond, as long as you give a description of the person above you. I would suggest not describing the same handler's characters twice though, since they'd probably appreciate a broad perspective.
First person to post gets to pick their character first, so go for it!
