[QUOTE="Graf, post: 3930519, member: 3087"] [b]On the creation of sires and character backgrounds more broadly[/b] I kind of fell into starting this game. As a result I created a few core NPCs to sort of play around however many members of the vampire community are not fully fleshed out. I don't see this as an earthshattering problem because 1. NPCs can be easily adapted as the game progresses 2. the PCs won't know a lot of other kindred when the game begins (it's a game about neonates) 3. it gives people a chance to contribute to the creation of the world So people who can contribute to the production of their own sires are a big help to me (and very much appreciated). At the same time it has to fit the city (see the My World of Darkness post above) and also, ideally, drive forward the various plots. Please don't think that, if a character point you have is lost in the shuffle or some aspect of a character you've created winds up wildly different that it's meant to be some sort of comment on the depth/neatness/coolness of the idea, or the characer. It isn't. I just want to get the game started, I have a bunch of NPCs, some intial story stuff and a desire to get the game started soon. [/QUOTE]
