What sorts of characters would you like to see more of?
« on: 23 Jul 2012, 09:53 »
Something I thought of the other day, was that some people, are good at having ideas but not implementing them, while others are great at implementing things but not so good at coming up with ideas.

So, why not talk about character sorts that you'd like to see more of, to act as an inspiration for people. So they can think: "Yes! I want to do that!" and off they go, and everyone goes \o/


I'd like to see:
More sensible Blood raidery people
More Imperial stoic people
More Gallente campaigners

and so on.

Nothing I'm about to list implies that what we have now is wrong - just that here are some things we don't see much of (and therefore I want to see moar).

- More lesser-played factions (SSOE, ORE, Syndicate, etc.)
- Factionless characters with more motivation than "LET'S BLOW SHIT UP"
- Sov nullsec RPers
- Straight females
- Gay males

I would like more "normal" people.

More Average Joe, please.


Also, Caldari Practicals and, a personal favorite, Intaki separatists.

Could you elaborate on what you mean by "normal"?

Think so? Plenty of sociopaths and mass murderers, but no one really ever takes the time to enjoy the intimacy of a sharp blade and the look of surprise on a victim's face as their life slowly drains away...

...It doesn't really fit the setting, though, minus Jamyl's little friend?

Do you see it now?  Something is different.  Something is never was in the first part!

In a cybernetics-rich environment with individuals able to wield massive warships with a thought, who could possibly imagine individuals neurally networked in such a setting?

Morwen's Law:
1) The number of capsuleer women who are bisexual is greater than the number who are lesbian.
2) Most of the former group appear lesbian due to a lack of suitable male partners to go around.
3) The lack of suitable male partners can be summed up in most cases thusly: interested, worth the air they breathe, available; pick two.
