Sorry as I try and get a feel for characters and how they "may" be played, it is hard to tell until we have had more interaction. It is hard to have a discussion about your character quirks as you could around the RL table, which leaves me to making some mistakes.
This being pbp I find myself "playing" characters to help move things along. I'm trying my best to use Alignment, Traits, and Backgrounds and stay within character (even when they are still new). I really try and make it so the reactions/posts I make are open-ended enough to add or subtract from. Me wanting the player to add to the posting.
I will respect your wishes to not tell you how your character feels or reacts to a situation. But please remember we are all in this together, as a group, to make this fun for all involved.
