What they feel is irrelevant, though if you read their bios' info on their psychology, you can deduce what they would feel at any time. The exception to this is when you control Sakura, as you sometimes contradict her personality though there's room for interpretation. Other than that, there isn't anything going on for Erik or Sakura to be useful.

I just noticed the next turn is it, which I did not notice. The above paragraph referred to the previous turn only.

I also gotta work on Omega, will try that sooner or later.

It sounds like this frustrates you. I admit that I was supposed to have their bios on the lore document i use. I am not very good at checking their bios on the thread itself, and somewhere along the line, those bios disappeared on that lore page. I had no idea I was even altering her personality, though I probably should have been looking at the thread itself as well.

So this is why I decided to take up journaling. That lore page is a jumble now, so I am going to add their bios to that instead.. Good ol pen and paper will always be more useful than a lore document I have to save every time I update it; and there is virtually no chance of me losing what i wrote down.

Oh, I wasn't frustrated--as I said, there is room for interpretation regarding Sakura. It's not that I expect you to merge my bios' backstories with the RP, it's the lack of overall purpose, which I recall mentioning long ago. From what I think I interpret, your RP is focused on your own ideas, with users' bios tagging along amidst semi-hectic storytelling, some of which my characters can't react to because they aren't in the area or just don't have the knowledge.

Nevertheless, it is peculiar you took up journalism for the sake of improving your storytelling, keep going like that and you'll go far! What I do for notetaking is to simplify the role-play's intro/context, bios my own are with, and important events/characters, in Google Docs.



I reworked my bio in Vigil, too, it should be better, I hope.

It is interesting you should observe that because it sounds like you are saying there are other ways of rping. Ways of which I have no clue about.

Are you saying that there needs to be divergent paths for this Roleplay? Such as after a time skip, Erik ends up back with his old tribe; or Annie finds survivors from Tuba and forms her own resistance group? Right now, Annie, Erik, and Sakura are all a little in the dark, Not because they don't know, but because you as the roleplayers don't know. Thus Vyras has to lay out all the necessary background information your characters would need in this chapter, so I guess keep a notebook on hand and write down important information, and review it from time to time.

Also, Annie. I actually had the time to post for you, just now.

It's possible to make a less structured roleplay - a world built on OOC conversations. It tends to make a roleplay less about experiencing mystery, and more about experiencing experiencing mystery.

I kinda miss the days where you'd see 4-5 people in-game in a friends chat discussing lore and brain mapping info dumps for threads that begun with nothing but a name, rules and a bio format.
