That's part of the reason why I didn't add anything in the CS about the characters history. I had a tenuous grasp on what this World had to offer in the first place, and you can't create a history without a world. There is no context. I mentioned that this is our world to build. It's not some lazy tactic on my part to get out of world building. I honestly want input from the other people playing (preferably in PM) to ensure that there is diversity in character backgrounds.


Also, posting a character history is masturbatory(as in self-serving/self-indulgent). It's more practical to have an understanding of where your own character is coming from and to reveal bits and pieces of their backstory in game as they interact with others. Adds mystique to the charcater and insentive to get to know them. If you want me to approve of the history, that's fine, pm it to me. But not here in the OOC. Same goes for the World building suggestions. Thats my fault, I failed to make that clear.

And I thank you for not having a Background/History in the CS. I [i]hate[/i] making those things. You're trying to have a childhood and adulthood in a world you have just been introduced to - it's impossible.
