#In character introduction

[the-biome-gods]

*Introduction.*

*The Winded One's voice calls out,* "Hello, everybody! I'm so excited that we'll be able to get visitors again!" *Their voice is warm and cheerful.*

*... They seem to be alone right now, though. Maybe that'll change soon.*

"Ah, hello, everyone!" *Genesis' overly cheerful voice rings out,* "Welcome to the circus! I do hope everyone enjoys their stay!"

*His joyful voice is a stark contrast to the bleak atmosphere. It seems the buildings used to be painted in vivid colors, but they've faded over the years... There's old, dried bloodstains on the walls and floors.*

[nova-and-strudel-rp]

*introduction*

"A-ah... um.. hello.." *Nova greets nervously,* "It's.. nice to meet everyone!"

"Hiiii!" *Strudel's voice is far more enthusiastic than Nova's,* "This'll be so much fun, getting to meet new people! I'm Strudel, and this is my best friend, Nova!" *The violet steve gestures to the timid hybrid standing beside him.*

When burning to death in a fiery chasm isn't even the worst thing that's happened to you

Well met, stranger. You find yourself in the presence of the renowned wizarding prodigy, Gale of Waterdeep.

"How does one become a caretaker of ruins. What is there to caretake." IMMEDIATELY clocked Toriel's entire character conflict within 3 lines of introduction. jaw on the floor

[gale-force-storm]

Thinking about the fact that, to pull Gale from the stone and get him in the game at all, you have to decide to try to touch an extremely dangerous looking swirling mass of unstable magic. Something that is, objectively, a terrible idea

Like, the options it gives you are to either touch the sigil or leave, and if you leave you just... don't get Gale in the party

You have to take the risk. You have to let your curiosity override your common sense. You have to look at this unstable, possibly dangerous malfunctioning magic sigil and go "...Ok, but what if I poke it?"

In short, to get Gale in your party, you have to do exactly what he would in that situation, and indulge in a moment of reckless curiosity. And I just think that's delightful

I'm reading Persuasion again, and I am just tickled by the complete takedown of Sir Walter Elliot that is his introduction.

Jane Austen said, "Meet Sir Walter Elliot. He's very pretty and he has a baronetcy and he sucks so bad. He's just so self-absorbed and all he cares about is how pretty he is and the fact that he has a baronetcy. The only reason that he should actually be proud of these things is because they probably scored him his very awesome (and tragically dead) wife, whose only major flaw was that she married him."

I don't think I'll ever understand people who claim that persuasion isn't as funny as her other novels.

Enjolras and his three character traits per his introduction:

Hot (yellow)

Will not fuck you (green)

Revolution (red)

When other Yellowjackets fans, majority who are poc themselves, talk about how weird and frustrating it is that the writers introduced a random yte character and gave them a storyline when there were two (technically three but they killed off Lottie even when there was an opportunity for more) woc, who have been around since s1, that could've fit the mold instead (like Mari) and have actual personalities outside of building up/being the lapdog for another character. Or how often times many of the, limited, poc characters are often either treated poorly and killed off, or pushed to the side (Simone, reduced to the disposable black girlfriend trope and is nearly killed by her partner because she's in the way of a ship; Travis, since s1, had his trauma dismissed or ignored and was overly hated but no one talks about how he was SA'd by the girls he's now stuck with on top of having to eat his brother and not be able to grieve over it). How Taissa's whole storyline is just revolving around Van even with all the potential, especially given she's fighting to be free from her own mind, how Lottie's mental illness is treated so poorly as if it's not the butt of a joke then it's met with heavy criticism (and the only time she is met with sympathy for it, it's through the lens of a yte character embodying her and having an emotional conversation with her father). How you can have all of these reasons (and more) for being annoyed by Melissa's character or the direction of the show, and be met with #those fans downplaying these concerns, or just being overly antagonistic just because they find yte character #243 entertaining so obviously these conversations don't have merit. But this fandom has always had an...."interesting" way in which it discussed the poc characters on the show, so I'm not surprised.

You know what isn't talked about enough? How much of a little freak The Ghoul is. Most non-feral ghouls we meet in the games hang around places more or less like regular people. A lot of them are trying to live a normal of a life as possible, even though they've been alive a long time and are facing discrimination.

And then there's fucking Cooper Howard, who's just casually hanging out in a fucking coffin for decades at a time for funsies, I guess.
