[quote=@Hero] You call that a summary?! Also going simple and leaving it to the player to make the CS/Character interesting as opposed to vice versa is ideal. [/quote] It is difficult to take several small essays of explanation down any further on that. If memory serves, this would be the fourth time I have contributed to such a discussion between the forum and the Discord. It is a matter that comes up time and again for reasons I cannot understand, but I digress. Yes, that is the condensed version of what I have said before. On a related note, I have never, not once in all of my years of roleplaying - aside from completely free form as it was on old chat services - known any roleplay that did not have some sort of character sheet system involved. Even then, some of those had them, or there was at the very least an expectation and unwritten rule that once things were done, they were done; set in stone. Not everything need be changed, so I do agree that simple is better, as complexity can often be needless when without explicit purpose.
