[QUOTE="Zerith, post: 5455143, member: 99953"] About Lawful being boring: I just don’t find it as fun: thus it is boring (although L.E. can be fun for me, but that is generally as the big bad, not the big bad here so that is irreverent) And about being perfectly normal, ok, so I generalized, Far, too much there, but I like making my characters as highly unequal as possible (although I never use girl characters, they confuse me far too much to get into their heads.) Also I’m not an RP newbie, just a DnD newbie, one of my first characters (pure text RP) was a human warrior he, was not wise or smart, but damnedly over built, got into a fight with a puny elf thief, Poor Armee’s armor was ruined even and battle axed a half dozen or so of his own coins in half before the thief fled before the brute could hit it [FONT=Wingdings]L[/FONT] (the other Character? A small silver dragon, small as in the size of a cat with wings and a large tail, so about the size of a prudo dragon? Or however you spell it…) [FONT="] Mind you, I have nothing against that old character, but it was a very short PvP RP. For an RP that, from what I can tell, will last years, I want to make damned sure the character I play will intrigue me for years, and wandering how a character will interact because of challenges they cross do to their stature and or form adds to the intrigue. (I’m tall[6’4”], so my characters are generally short, meaning they don’t hit their heads on things, normal, but can’t reach the top self easy, odd.) [That said most of my characters are smart, because I think I’m smart because of my (overly) inflated ego, and let’s be frank, if we think of something, so did our characters, but it’s hard to justify how a [URL="http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f135/Forest_Herder/Drawings/Zuak.jpg"]half-wyvern[/URL] with a brain the size of a peanut noticed the walls of a graveyard are odd because they are two feet tall and four wide, even more so if the ‘smart’ priest/wizard was ignorant of it.
