@ Rilla, this is a common trend and minor pet peeve of mine, too. It was pretty funny because at one point in my rpI had three main characters, one who was the leader of the group, another her close friend/partner/confidant, and another a former bandit and absolute stupid idiot. I had a story arc where the leader had a crisis of confidence and along with her partner, tried to abandon the remainder of the group. When it came to the point in the rp where the rest of the characters went to search for these two missing characters, the person who they tried to gravitate to and follow was... my stupidest of stupid idiots. Made no sense whatsoever. :lol
