[@KatherinWinter] That's what I figured. It's unfortunate, because I really have been trying to avoid that. I guess the question is, would you like to start over again or do a new roleplay instead? 

It seems like you need a more straight forward plot line. Maybe we can checklist and line up plot elements in preparation, so you never feel lost. I'm willing to put the effort in, to make that possible. If you wish to contribute more, but feel like you can't in the direction I'm taking the story.

I guess that's why I asked, if you prefer leading or following or mixing story lines. Usually it tends to go either/or, because otherwise unless you're very used to role-playing. It will get confusing. I'll admit, I'm adding a lot of things to the plot. If it feels convoluted because I'm trying to make the world live outside our characters, I didn't intend for such. 

Because, I'll say you've kind of set yourself up and sort of put limitations on yourself for no real reason. You made a character that won't make decisions, won't speak up. Which in itself doesn't lead to IC, actions in changing the story.

And you don't usually add any outside character details, environments or otherwise. So you can't effect the IC world, if you don't try adding to its overall shape. You also don't/rarely want to work with NPC's I've created, but not for my sake. Because I wanted this to be both our story. You could easily change the direction through NPC action, character action, environmental IC action. But you say you don't want to. Which, you don't -have- to. But if not doing anything, makes you feel like you're not getting involved enough. Well, there's an relatively easy fix for that...

If you don't like a story element I'm doing, or want to add your own. Like I've said. I'm about as free-going in IC story building as possible. But if you don't like the feel of randomness or strange/odd coincidences or plot elements in your fantasy. Then my suggestion to start anew and make a step by step plotline layout is open to try. We can always come back to the story if we wanted to.
