[QUOTE="Essafah, post: 8327273, member: 16472"] Upon reading this my primary question is (and also being serious though smiling); exactly how long in real game time? I ask this not because of the trans experience, take trans out of it. This could be about the the ghost of a loved one that is male haunting you. It could be a scene where you come to talk to the person who killed someone dear to you...my main inquiry is how long does the game stop for you to explore this elaborate back story while all the other players just sit around listening. To be clear, I am not saying it should be banned and again I am not focusing on the trans part, gender, etc. I am just focusing on this what I call Critical Role effect that somehow I showed up for one person to take up a huge chunk of time having their solo scene. It does not matter if I get a long solo scene later. I don't want to have one. If I wanted to do long solo scenes I would join a drama club or LARP. I want to go on adventure, explore some ruins, fights some monsters, etc. Watching you act through a solo story (about whatever) and me sitting there while you and the DM have a solo internal expedition is my main issue.
