MU Peeves Thread

If I wanted to play an unattractive character, I’d just play myself.
-
@Artemis i get it! I do think that’s important to think about especially the barrier in CG! I feel like I’ve been shifted now more to a “desc for my pc is more a tool for other players rather than for me” due to this discussion and its interesting to think of things with that reframing.

This brings up a WoD/CofD peeve of mine. It’s STRIKING Looks. Not sexy looks. The character stands out in some way, not necessarily because they’re hot/pretty/etc. Yes, in 1E they describe it as attractive, but even before 2E, I saw people use it for characters that weren’t “hawt” but had something distinctive about them. Example: Grotesque, which didn’t give them Persuasion type advantages but Intimidation instead.
I’m very glad in 2E they changed it to reflect that.

I have definitely played people who weren’t hot, but they were definitely dynamic and attractive.
Especially the quarian, who routinely advised people how handsome he was.
let it be a challenge to you

@sao the magnetism and charisma you are capable of emoting with a single written sentence has both always impressed me and confused me. Like what is this black magic stoppit also wait come back-

@crawfish I mean the sentence he usually used was just “I am very handsome” so that can’t be what you mean, but thank you
let it be a challenge to you

@sao I never said it made sense!

I’m notoriously problematic.

One option for a PB picture that isn’t actually some actor, model, or whatever is thispersondoesnotexist.com – you’ll need to click a lot, no doubt, to find one you like, but there are infinite possibilities for AI-generated faces.
I don’t really have an opinion on PBs myself. Some people like them, some people don’t.

@L-B-Heuschkel lol god I forgot about this and started clicking through it and was like OH RIGHT
It’s really cool but sometimes you get like demon faces in the background. Like this one, check out the bottom right:

What I am hearing is that this is the perfect PB for a person who is possessed but it is subtle and they are acting like a normal friendly person.

@tsar it’s giving emotional vampire @ What We Do in the Shadows

Oh yes, many of them are horrible. I still nick NPC faces from there a lot.

@L-B-Heuschkel It really is an excellent resource! I’d just totally forgotten about the random stuff it pulls up until that moment. I kind of love it, though, in its own way.

I think this is a RL and MU peeve bound together, causing a level of personal conflicting emotions with myself. But it’s not even a ‘peeve’ because I’m not even mad or annoyed at anything or anyone beyond my own brain and how it sometimes fights against me.
I’m always happy to see another game open, I think it’s a good thing. I’ve always believed it’s a good thing and will continue to believe so. But there are times, when you see a new game just take off right out of the gate, putting up a presence that you really can only dream about, there is…a sense of feeling defeated. Especially when you look back at everything you tried to do in order to achieve what you have. And it feels like the wind suddenly gets knocked out of your sails like a punch to the gut.
It’s nobody’s fault, and again, there’s no one to be upset with. There’s only myself and wondering if you’re good enough, and yes, I know, don’t compare what you do to what someone else does. The logical part of my mind is screaming that. It’s brain weasels, I know it’s brain weasels. I’m aware of it, and I recognize it. But I also admit to realizing that doubt can creep into my mind and make sure to ask me. “Are you sure you’re doing a good enough job?”
I try to not listen to it. But there are times it gets real loud. It will pass, I know it will. It’s just recognizing the feeling for what it is and not letting it rule my judgement. Still, it can be very hard to make that distinction.
I don't know what I'm doing. Poke at Seven Nations sevennations.aresmush.com port 2021

@Testament I could be way off base on this but I’m throwing it out here in case I’m not the only one…I always got the impression from your posts here that you were trying to run a small game, which kinda kept me from checking it out.
-
@Testament I don’t know if this will help or not, but I’ve heard of or talked to several people that have been on your game (or are on it currently!) and they have all only told me good things about it. That the setting is interesting, that they enjoyed setting things up with you. That they were excited to play.
