the absolute worst thing you can be on a MU* is average height
I… actually like to be within the realm of average height on MU*s (most of the time, not always). Then again, I’m also the guy who likes playing by-the-book pilots, Stormtroopers, and other characters who could be “generic” if not for how they’re played.
you are taking the joke too seriously

30 is the new 20.

There was even a book series about it.

Gently steering this back on track
What do you do in your MU RP to make it fun for other people?
-
Most of what I try to do has already been said by better RPers than me, but maybe slightly different is I try to be the one who comes up with the scene premise. I think (hope?) it’s fun to be able to run with something but the “thinking up” part might be more difficult. Obviously no one is the one who does it every time, but I did shoot for at least usually having a concrete idea in mind, even if a scene ended up being something my partner suggested instead.

@junipersky I literally made Aureth 5’9" and he was 37 when we started and going a lil prematurely gray because I liked posing about his hair. He got… so much ass. Lmao. I can’t remember how old he was when the game ended but he was still doing just fine.
Edit: I looked it up, he was 50.

Making your RP fun for other people for me is all about reading other people’s poses, responding to what’s actually there and riffing on it. RP chemistry develops from the way you can bounce off the other player so I always want to be both reactive and proactive in terms of giving my partner something to react to. Also my sense of humor is dumb and it is everywhere.
