(both of these are very long-career Fighters of mine who are still active now)Doesn't matter that in either case we'd be more or less doing the same things (though very likely not in the same manner!) - the characterization differences would make it different enough.  Throw in that each other player at the table might be making a similar choice, and you never know what you're gonna get. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />To me, again yes as noted just above.Yes.Red herring.  If the characters are deciding where they go and what they engage with (one assumes this is being done via a vaguely consistent in-character decision process) the play is already revolving around them.It's the party's collective story.  Characters within said party often come and go as time passes, but the party continues.Claiming as a player that my character's story is more important than that of the party is pure selfishness.</blockquote>
