[QUOTE="Bari, post: 3428581, member: 39791"] The idea is, write some sort of essay, about a character you have played with. You know, like if you were talking to someone else about a friend (or enemy!) of yours. There are two simple rules: [B]A:[/B] You must write about a character that you [B][I]DON'T[/I][/B] play. Someone else's char. [B]B:[/B] You are not to ask the char's player, or use the words of the description, unless you are quoting them. It must be based in your own playing experience with him/her/it. This could be a bit of fun for everybody, and help newbies like me to see in what we missed when developing our char's personality :D. And, since I'm the one who started the thread, the proper thing would me to start the "game". [B]NOTE:[/B] The idea is to write about personality traits, not physical descriptions. There can be multiple essays of one single char, as long as they come from different people and do not turn the whole thread to be based on that single char. So I don't want to see, fifty essays about Bhryn! [B] Zeliphia [/B] Zeliphia is the classical girly girl. Not only tall and lithe, but she shows the three traits that every memorable female in fantasy possess: Cheers most of the time, deep guilt when does something wrong, big ego and a bigger temper. She loves nature, trees, flowers, grass... don't think she loves the dog poo that usually goes with them, through. Not surprising she's a gardener, but surprising that, having to get them inside the dirt all the time, she has those so called "little lithe hands". Also surprising, that the arms attached to them can pick up an unwary halfling and crush it to a helpless (and oxigen-less) puddle of a hairfoot. Zel is also [I]awfully[/I] romantic, clasping her hands together and blinking dreamily whenever she speaks of her "luvie-wuvie", and if it was for her, she would probably spend all day in bed thinking of him (while doing some better-left-censored things in the middle, because she has to get the basements for those dreams from somewhere.) She's also fond of recieving compliments whenever she has the chance, no matter from who, and apparently freely gives her trust to whoever is unlucky enough to cross her rose-laden path. On the other hand, she's soon deflated when something pinches her pink balloon, and you must watch your choice of words when talking to her... it can lead you to a reddened face, and most probably not red as in a embarrassed blush. And again we quote her hands, because, one thing is being hit by a big beach ball, and another is being hit repeatedly by little round bullets. Girly girl enough, however, she's quick to forgive. ------ I know, thankfully, I'm not a writer. [/QUOTE]
