Fair enough, I guess it's just different personal experiences.

I did it all the time in my face-to-face game. Same person always, perhaps that's why it worked, it depends on the people. We played lovers, siblings and parent-child (with me as the parent) in different games. It always added a little something. I just figured the last thing remaining would be parent-child as the child. =) That or cousins, which isn't too special. I may have even done cousins and just not remember as it was a non-entity.

My 2 coppers.

In my experience when others have played a sibling combo or lovers etc..The experience was somewhat rewarding to those playing in the "couple" but alienating to the other players. Creating a "group within a group" so to speak. This in and of itself is not necessarily a bad thing and can create roleplaying opportunities. But it is a double edged blade. Sometimes that alienation..well alienates another player from roleplaying opportunities and sometimes it simply isn't fun. So with all double edged blades...Handle with care. :)

Hmm ... well, you have been actively gaming longer than I have so you have come across good situations of this. :)

Your poor other half must be massive now! :lol:
 

Our group hasn't had a problem with it. However, if there is a lot of roleplaying between 2 characters it is normally done away from the rest of the table.

This is a good idea, I think. Rp'd out of gaming session? Or in session while the other pc's wait (and go get something to eat or drink or whatever)?

Maxwell Smart I remember. ;)


Inspector Gadget was on Nickelodeon during our Cartoon watching in the mid 80s Myc.

However we were too busy watching Bravestarr, Galaxy Rangers and the Bionic Six instead...
