interesting topic

Won't really post character sheets since I've always treated those are more of a formality, but there's some RP characters that stick out firmly in my mind. Some that I never even got to play, but who's setup I liked so much that they felt memorable to me.

I like Tamatsu and Vanth, a rather ordinary girl who ended up being murdered due to a long, ancient curse on a card she was fated to own, and her corpse being animated by a spirit who now inhabited her body alongside her that she wasn't aware of. And I do mean she's a corpse; her spirit is still bound to her body, but due to the necromancer Vanth's powers, with the same spell he sealed his spirit to hers. Planning to eventually purge her spirit and use her body to revive himself, all while she's vaguely aware she's not really alive. Never got to play her but she's a super cool character to me.

Similarly, Shizuka from an old 1x1 I did with a friend that didn't get very far. A "trans girl" in a sense, as in she was an [i]actual[/i] trans girl at one point, being a boy who didn't like being one and got his wish granted by a cosmic game turning him into a real, cis girl. 'course no such thing as a free lunch and all, so she was forced to use the spirit of her alter ego- Cross- who looked like her old, male self to fight other people who similarly had their wish granted. The losers would have their wish undone and ripped away from them.

There's also Serah who I like. From an old mecha RP. I mostly like her because she's one of the few characters who I got to really write, and one with a compelling (enough) story arc and some actual character development. She had a relationship, saw her friends die, went to prison- was pretty fun. I may bring her back in a bit if something shakes out, but otherwise she's mostly a good memory to me.


i swear i don't only write girls, just the girl characters i seemed to have more fun with than the guys i've historically played.
