Description Change

Player: Kakashi_on_crack 2

Character: Claire Sceleratus

Due to the fact that I've had a number of people keep asking me OOCly and ICly about Claire's religion, or if they can see the symbol on her hand even though she's clearly wearing gloves, etc. I'd like to ask to have the following changes to Claire's description:

Adding in the phrase "Hair color: Deep black"

And removing of the phrase "a symbol in her left palm" onwards.


While I like to put little descriptors in there so I don't have to explain it every time someone is close enough to look at her with her gloves off, I've frankly had about triple the number of people ask about Claire's religion ICly than I have with -all- of my characters combined. I don't think its metagame, its a trained reaction, but frankly I'm annoyed by it and think the removal of that descriptor will decrease the number of times I'm asked questions regarding her faith.

Thanks!

Done.

I understand how hard it is. People naturally ask Clerics more about their faith. Also when the character is OOCly known to worship one of the 'dark gods' it does come up more often. It's the sad truth of human behaviour and I agree that it most likely isn't meant as metagaming at all, but it sure feels like it sometimes when you just want to be hiding, heh?

Although I would say that Religion is just one of those conversation topics you can use to break the ice with a character you dont know. Although I wouldnt recommend it in real life as religion is a lot less controversial in D&D

[gatalis]

Awesome, thank you.

I wasn't upset about anyone asking, its been giving me plenty of time to come up with true excuses not requiring the bluff skill while not revealing her god actually, but I figured it would be in my best interests to just get that piece removed in a bid to try and make the questions less common so I don't have to answer them as often.

Hello. I was wondering if it was possible to change my character's bio. I didn't know we had to create a back story and I was wondering if you could change it to this:

Name: Bram Ashby
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Height: 5'1"
Wight: 140 lb
Eye Color: Blue
Hair Color: Blond
Body type: Muscular/lean

Nothing much is really known about the man standing before you. He sometimes has the attitude of a serious man and sometimes the attitude of a swashbuckler. He is almost never seen without his hood on, he believes so he can hide the emotional scars he suffered through when he lost his parents to the zombie outbreak.

Before the outbreak, he was the spy commander and assassin for the king of Siranda. If there was an enemy army coming to the castle, he would be the one to see how big the force was and report the information to the king. If there was a rival noble who was threatening a civil war with him, he would be the one to kill the noble and make it look like an accident.
