Thank you, [@Ruby], for moving this! Also, yes. I know how that can feel. I love when characters become more than just simple characters, and take over of their own accord. Sort of making them the writers instead of you. Which is probably something that does not sound crazy to only a writer. Heh. Wishful thinking every writing session would end up like that!

[b]Type 1: Characters that represent different parts of me[/b]: I love to make characters that represent me when I am angry, when I am silly, when I am happy, when I'm in a more intelligent mood, etc. So it's easy for me to delve into them and become them.

Confirmation of my belief that every character a writer creates has some portion of their creator in them--no matter how small, or be they the hero or the villain--whether the writer intended it or not! It just comes out in different degrees, creating different personalities based on who the character really is. I believe you find that even in published novels, not just roleplays. A character could seem to be completely different from the writer him/herself in many (if not most) aspects, yet still have that small bit of the writer in them, either amplified or diluted.


[@Lady Amalthea]: Theme songs! I commend you for being capable of finding those in the first place. I've tried doing that, but it never pans out, for one reason or another. Kudos, and glad that works for you!

[@vancexentan]: Yes! I am not alone! :lol That's pretty much what I was trying to get at in my initial post. But you said it so much better.
