Title: Quirky Role Ideas
Post by: FantasyWriter on August 02, 2014, 11:24:19 AM
Another role brainstorming thread!

Everyone's broken or at least cracked in some way or other, right?


Half-elf assassin: The more someone likes or seems to trust him, the more it reminds him of what he is and how little he deserves it.  He ends up eliminating that reminder to save his soul from the anguish it causes.

A mul who starts to psychologically bond with everyone he gains any familiarity with since his bondmate died or was lost.  Sees even the least bit of betrayal or disloyalty as a personal offense and beats/kills/casts out the offender.

What else ya got?

I once met a character who referred to another character as "Mudsex" because his name very vaguely resembled something to that effect.

That kid from "Swamp Castle"... replace all Say "I want to join the Byn" with Sing "I want to join the Byn".

Sergeant: "One day you could be a Trooper!"

Runner: "But I don't want all that... I just want to... SING!!!"

I haven't even played yet, though I have played in MUME which is similar in some ways.  So..

A blind character?  Forcing everyone else to fill out a new field for their character of vdesc (what their voice sounds like normally, or what sounds they make constantly)

You walk in slowly from the west.
You cannot see a thing!
Something is here.
Something is here.
Someone is here, walking down the street whistling.
Something stamps a hoof, restlessly.


Just imagine getting in a fight.  Do I attack 1.something?  or is it 3.something?
Something cries out and falls as you stab it!
"Damn it, that was my horse...."

This is my reality, Constant Reader. Please, for mercy's sake, close the book.
