@sao I really thought your sig said ‘Let the challenge be -you-’ and it felt fitting.
I draw things! http://www.mahaldoodles.com

@crawfish my sig is from Up the Down Staircase, by Bel Kaufman, the book that made me want to be an English teacher, until I was halfway through the teaching school program and realized being a teacher would destroy me and went to law school instead.
let it be a challenge to you
-
I play a priest and I appreciate this.
Granted I should KNOW stuff already playing an NPC priest.
-
Porter and I had what was a super enjoyable scene for me where we shot straw bales from the trebuchets in the Templar Yard and I totally want to do that again! With like pumpkins and things that smash messily. I def want to set up a couple of these as events this summer when college softball is over. -
@Tori Would be fun! @sao ran a great catapult event for Preston’s birthday. I think there is appetite. Using the little training ones in the Templar yard could be a lot of fun.
I’ll also set up some rite of Glorias. Maybe do a set of them, a grand melee, a joust, and a one on one tourney.
When someone shows you who they are, over and over again? Believe them.
-
@sao Great book!
-
@Narson I didnt shoot a catapult at Preston’s birthday but I would 100% shoot a catapult at another event.
-
@Snackness like… a war?
-
-
@Narson feel free to use the baby catapult. It is clearly part of your present. Feel for the poor npc Templars who had to get thing down all the rectory stairs.
-
@sao NO CATAPULTING BABIES
-
Ok totally unrelated thought: how do I make it fashionable to show up to shit in my carriage and four?
let it be a challenge to you

-
@Snackness but I can’t model a bench!

I MISREAD THIS, CARRY ON

Is it weird that sometimes it’s easier to play my NPCs than my PCs? Helping seed metaplot info or other character info is easier than actively forming character interactions.
ETA: Probably as RL has gotten insanely hectic. It’s not that I hate interpersonal interactions but yeah.
-
@Smile Not really. Like, I want to investigate and learn stuff and put the puzzle together… but also like, RP is tricksy and it’s hard to figure out the vibe sometimes.

Oftentimes when my RP energy is low I find that I can handle plot-focused scenes a lot more than casual social scenes, because I have a sort of – goal? Or direct task to do. I feel like your having an easier time with NPCs is probably similar.
