Azi, note on your post: it was Talia who was doing all the speaking there, not Chloe.

I also just have to ask: If Ridley doesn't care about anything, what is the point to the character? How is someone going to be motivated to actually do something if they don't care at all?

Oh, sorry about that, I will make an edit soon.

By "not care about anything" what I really mean is "not concerned about the current discussion". Ridley simply has nothing to add to the discussion, but I also don't know what to add as Ridley. He likes fighting and challenge, so his main motivation is outdoing other users, if the chance arises. I am waiting until we can make our move, unless I have misinterpreted the setting.



Edited my post, it is fixed and has a bit more details. It should be better now, I hope. I also hope I am not losing my touch.

Alright. I was mainly asking because I've had issues with characters before that don't care about anything making it really difficult to get anything done. Granted, this was in D&D, but the principle is almost exactly the same.

And yeah, it's better.

What about wake up rp!
How about you don't pester people?

It's not like you've been asked not to do so a million times already or anything.

OK, glad I got it sorted out. I will have to be more specific more often, for sure. Sometimes, I am too vague, or expect people to 'get it'.

Very good. I will get into the heads of my characters more often, I think that's a better option.



I forgot about Wake Up, actually. I will try to post sometime tonight. Currently, I am tired and rather weak. Working on a new novel, a fanfic, and RPing on two different websites, whilst trying to find work, and health problems and sleeping problems, have really slowed me down lately. I have headaches basically everyday. I should take an aspirin, speaking of which.

Perhaps they are there because the captain saw them shoot and thought they would be useful. Their motivation? I dunno about you guys, but the average person tends to go with the flow unless they know otherwise (and sometimes even then - there was a term for this but I forgot it..).

My point: You don't need complex motives (or any motive at all) for things to happen.

I'm not disputing that. What I was referring to was more along the lines of someone who, by not caring, didn't want to do anything and would put up opposition to doing anything because they didn't care about it.

There's nothing wrong with going with the flow.
