I should really take my time to cultivate an OC that can be adapted to various roleplays. Generally, I create my characters in about half an hour and specify them to individual roleplays.

I've never really had an "OC". I've had characters I've made, but like... never ones that I felt particularly attacked to or wanted to keep using, create backgrounds for, make relationships for, etc.

Unless you count book-characters, but I'm kind of uncreative about those, too. Always female main characters, usually teens-20s, personality depends on the tone of the story. The only exception is a story I'm planning where there are two main characters, and while the actual story revolves around the girl, the male character has just as much to do with the plot as she does, maybe even more.

Sometimes I feel really unoriginal and lame. ]:

*chomp* :B

I suppose I am kind of like Plushie, but then again, I used to play on forums, like proboards, where whole site revolved around role playing, and there I created characters sometimes solely for some plot. While I wrote only one paragraph per post, sometimes even one line, I could handle it, of course, but when I started spending hour on one post, it grew too much to bear.
All my characters are precious to me on some level, yes all 300+, I never re-used a picture I had already used, because that picture was already for certain character. Same goes for the names, pretty much.
Though... I suppose I have 3 or 5 specially selected characters that I have brought up maybe 4 times, all in different role plays. They have slightly changed name over the time, but their background is still similar to the original and so is their appearance.

My current story, the one that I really care enough for and can call a story, is told trough the viewpoint of a male (I always liked RPing guys, too x3) but the other main character is female, and they both are very important for the story.
They are not RP characters, never have been, and story idea was actually inspiration gained here, from Trisphee... It started off as a short story I wanted to gift to Trisphee, lol. XD

This makes me itch for a roleplay, just so I could figure out a character for myself.

The problem I have is I might like the character I create, but they're like... only interesting if they follow the path I have in my head. I have a roleplay going on this one site (wolf roleplays lololol I'm lame) and it's soooooooooo boooooooriiiiingggg because the dude just, agrees with everything my character says despite the fact that the character's main trait is that she irritates everyone around her, unwittingly insults everybody, and has no regard for personal space or authority figures.

The entire interest in the character relies on those traits, and I'm wondering if it's my mistake for not making characters that aren't interesting in every situation they're in, or if it's the person I'm playing against's fault for not trying to take advantage of the character's personality traits.

It evolved away from Trisphee, though, into something completely else. All that is left is the idea of it starting on a carnival and a very strange meeting. x3 Maybe I will post it some day~ -is a little self-conscious about her writing, plus, has experienced how even her 13 years old work gets stolen ;;>.>-

OMGYOURPWOLVES? Metoo. XD I did it for year and half. And big cats, too. And foxes! And even birds. x3

And, lol, I'm the same. That's why i turned to writing. I can figure out a whole scene ahead and when other player 'ruions" it, I'm like... "NAAAWH >:"

Usually I use the same character all the time when I role play. My favourite... :B Wallace... *hugs him* But I got a bunch of other characters too. They all have very detailed data and background.

*is away to eat fuud*

Maah, I'm hungreh, too. >:

Wolves were the first things I ever roleplayed, back in like 1999-2000. On Neopets. xD

I supposed I can't really be ashamed of it. I'm 90% sure that if I hadn't gotten into roleplaying, I would have never gotten into writing. And even though I don't consider myself a very good writer these days, it's still like, the only thing I have left that I can say I like doing and am okay at.

And if I find a good roleplayer, I'm perfectly okay with them taking the story in a direction I didn't plan, but roleplayers that fit my requirements for "good" are so freaking hard to find. They're all either super-duper dull, have poor ideas on what "good writing" is, or any change to the plot they try to enact is something that puts their character in the center of it all. I really hate when people try to make a whole roleplay all about them. :<

Ahaha, I started RPing them there, too, but it never got serious, till I accidentally joined panther RP and the creator invited me to proboards site all about them.
THAT'S where I found caracals from. ;;>.> And caracal siblings were my first real animal chars. C:

Ahaha, I don't think I am very good RPer, because I tend to reply to previous post and leave it hanging there, not pushing it forwards. ;>.> That's one of reasons why I went away from RPing, I felt like such a fail RPer, when I realized that. ><; Buut, I never tried to make the plot revolve around me. My English is not very good, though, so I am probably a bad writer, too. Dx

*snuggles with meh new iPod*

... -scared everyone away with her ramblings, goes to find if she can lock her mouth-

Layooooooout!...

Wha-what? ORLY? No actually I just felt like saying it. :B

Everyone, everyone! anyone here good with Tech stuff at all?! D;

Uh, how do you mean that? I can't really code, but I can find some stuff, and I know very little about such things in real life. >o<;

Well, my computer, the big one in the house that I use, it goes to where it would normally boot the OS, but instead, just....goes black. And, instead of having to hold the button down, I can just press the power button on the comp once, and it turns off completely.

There's only POOP on TV...women in slutty night wear...sports...fuck this...

Your OS might have broken down. Then it might need to be reinstalled fully. I am not expert though, you might need to call some professionals. Sounds serious.

I haven't watched TV in a loooong time. XD

Annnd brb, to eat.

Well, this really SUCKS...It was working perfectly fine at 4:30AM when I went to sleep..then, at 11:30, suddenly not working AT ALL? Seems suspicious...and, of course, they will blame ME for this...

@ FlaFla
Yup

It could be cause of many reasons, virus, old parts... @.@ Yeah you can probably figure out yourself it's something like that. My laptop would turn itself off becuase there was so much dust in it that it would overheat. I had to hand it in so they could clean it on the inside. Now I can handle it pretty well myself though.

My idea of dealing with broken computers is to unplug them and plug them back in, so you'll get no help from me...

Meh, even safe mode won' load... I HOPE it isn't the OS....

Well, I have Windows XP, not seven X3

My brother left me ancient, half broken computer that had Linux version that worked only with proper commands no one had taught me, it sometimes even refused to start up, unless I did some "magic" in the starting process, which I had to figure out on my own. But in the end, with internet help, and also on my own, I figured how to deal with the most problems, but I think it deeply depends on the OS and such. I hope it can be resolved soon. Hermes. It's really worrying when stuff like that happens. Dx

At this point if my laptop messed up I'd just save up and buy another one... 10% discount on things at Walmart comes in handy.

but all the stuff on it~ DDx

Is all backed up on my external harddrive :D

Oh I see. o3o Well, I have saved up the photos, well, all pictures on my USB memory, buuut the music~ -small flail- I don't know, I suppose I care for this laptop it self, since it's the first computer I really have for my self, to just let go of it so easily. >o<;

I LESS THEN 3 YOU ALL!!! lol xD
