      I barely pay attention to these forums and saw this coming a mile away.

        Which is why I went from ‘please give me all the details now’ to ‘oh. Alright whatever’ almost immediately.

          You are a CHANGELING of the WINTER COURT. You are a WIZENED and your seeming is that of the FARWALKER. Your favored Arcadian Contract is the STEED, and your common contracts are LIGHT-SHY, NEVERTREAD, SEVEN-LEAGUE LEAP, and ICE QUEEN’S CALL. Your royal contracts are ERMINE’S WINTER COAT and MIRROR WALK.

            Your parents were killed by Dalmatians and you grew up hating animals, eventually becoming a fashion maven who wants to skin animals for fashionable clothes. Except wait, animals are good and wholesome, why is the God Machine having you do that?

            By questioning the God Machine you have become a Demon, and now must Sabotage the whole clothing industry. Good luck.

              @Cobalt I feel that way about character descs. I write them but then I see others’ descs and think “why can’t I write like that??” I end up just listing my character’s features in the end and hope to get by.

                @Smile if it helps, i don’t think i’ve looked at a character desc in years unless i had to remind myself of basic features to incorporate into my poses with them if they weren’t listed in shortdesc, and pretty much promptly forget it immediately.

                i’m sure there are people out there that judge descs but sometimes those people are also kind of okay if they self-select out because they’re too good for you, you know?

                  Honestly, a desc with actual information in it is just as good as a pretty desc. The only descriptions that turn me off are the ones that are like… super purple.

                  let it be a challenge to you

                              Every aspiration, short and long term, will just be ‘contemplate orb.’

                                    @Deviant Okay, you’re an Int 1 Doctor… possibly a Demon whose medical knowledge was all linked to closely to the God-Machine so you had to forget it all… an Int 1, Medicine 0 Doctor.

                                        @Tributary Finding PB’s is one of my very favorite things. Writing descs is horrible.

                                        We're all mad here.

                                          I’m fine with writing descriptions so long as they are no longer than, say… three sentences. Three short sentences. I think the only time I ever went for any length whatsoever was for a Changeling, and even then it was nothing compared to the detail most people write:

                                          Elodie’s skin is brass and silver filigree, with each joint an articulated segment reminiscent of a marionette. Her irises are flecks of polished labradorite, and her pupils are a black onyx that dimly reflects the light. When her eyes move in their sudden, twitching jerks, the shadow of gearwork can be seen at the edges of the marble sclera. Her teeth are gleaming ivory; her tongue a rigid carving of carnelian. Her hair is sculplted of dark ebony wood. From her back, between her shoulder blades, a small key protrudes. It is made of brass, no more than an inch in length and three in width, and it turns constantly in a clockwise direction.

                                          Anything longer than that, and I’m out.
