Do you think the reason Jesus Christ doesn't rise again is because we keep putting up crosses and he gets flashbacks on how that went last time?

Okay, after looking it over, I guess these are a few of the ones that I use:


Probably a lot more, but those are the most common ones I use(that I know of).
Let's face it! Those are the most common types of roleplayers.

The Pre-planning types:
These types are those that want to plan out every single detail as much as possible. Be it plot, side-plots, environment, the environment's inhabitants, weather, economy, landscape, races, whether magic exists or not, what the focus should and shouldn't be, and all that good stuff. They are the types that prefer to scope out exactly what should happen in every main and side-arc. They are the type of person that, for the life of them, can't understand why people don't plan out every single detail. They are the types that want to outline everything so nothing is "inconsistent."

The Spontaneity types:
These are the free spirits of the roleplaying world; the "Live For The Moment" types. Above all else, they believe that there should be minimal to no pre-planning and let events unfold as they come. They believe in the process of world-building as the posts come. Whether plot takes a dark turn or it's all fluff, they let it happen naturally. There is no "let me think about this first". They come up with -enter plot here- as they type a certain post. To them, being surprised surpasses discussing it thoroughly with -enter amount of- partners here. They want the thrill of coming up with something on the spot that will be even better than if they actually thought it through. Even if it's inconsistent at times, it is, to them, fun and full of unpredictable moments.

So RPG, where do you fall? Do you like to pre-plan or let the moment take over?

About Gary Stus - Kvothe is okay in writing, but I can see the issue unless it is pre established that your character is somehow a demigod.


Unless it fits the parameters of the game(if based around Demigods as a whole or say a Thor-like Character), this should never happen.

I do this all the time. It really has something to do with wanting to do some parts of your character, and then going "meh" at the rest.

Though, I, sometimes, tend to regain interest later, and finish the character.


It's the fucking worst, especially when you know you have a badass concept.

Like for me, my character was the result of an experiment gone wrong. He used a variation of Heat Manipulation, but only applied it to water(like from his body). His entire body would abnormally heat up each time, say he got a suit that helped him contain it and would be able to siphon out the bad for the good. Thing is, he has to keep it on at all times or he runs the risk of getting his internal body heat to such a degree that it rises to dangerous levels, like over 150 degrees F.

The thing for me, I was totally behind it, but one day(yesterday), I just looked at the word document I had him in and just was like "fuck this." It's going to be like you said and sometime later, I'll go back and finish him. But, as the popular saying goes:

"But it is not this day."
