[QUOTE="DrunkonDuty, post: 9284066, member: 54364"] If by RP setup you mean give the player chances to do things that their character is good at and that the player enjoys doing? Then yes you should. Someone who has a face character obviously wants to do some face character schtick. Someone who builds a combat monster wants to do combat. Give them scenarios where they can do the things they have signed up to do. As for setting up jokes. Well, that's hard and there's a reason why professionals write scripts. I wouldn't bother with writing up lists or getting the player to write up lists. The chances of something from the list coming up are slender in any case.
