It really helps me determine their voices, their mannerisms, and even motivations.Examples: The nice lady at the Adventurer's Guild? She sounds and acts just like Marge Gunderson from Fargo, dontchaknow? Oh yahh! And the crime boss of the South Market? He's totally - and very obviously - Teddy KGB from Rounders. The cool bartender at their favorite inn? He's not so blatantly obvious, but I try to do my best (pre-crazy) Charlie Sheen. It makes it so much easier to carry on a conversation as those characters.As for bad habits, I overprep. MASSIVELY. I already have enough prep for the next 4-6 game sessions, and we only play once per fortnight.</blockquote>
