RPing with Nobody
-
If we expand out from the MUniverse I can recall solo RPing a lot on play by forum games. But that, much like the vignette most recently demonstrated and expanded upon in the Ares system, was… it was sort of like RPing for an audience, rather than RPing solo. Does that make sense, or make it different?

I always thought of vignettes and journals/blue books and things like that less like solo RP and more like RP hooks–you’re putting it out there hoping someone reads it and is like gee this person sounds cool or hey I have information on that I could help them with.
So I guess it is kind of like throwing a (long) pose out into an empty room and hoping that someone sees it when they come in and wants to pose back.
