Characters-meme!

[ladysanjou]

Just a little roleplaying meme I have seen at the journals of  aryana_filker and lisande :

Pick a character I've written or roleplayed, and I will give you the top five ideas/concepts/other I keep in mind while writing that character that I believe are essential to depicting them accurately. This includes both original characters and characters about whom I write

Azador. :)

Ah. Azador. My most complex RPG character I ever created. The initial idea originated from music, actually. The song "No song of mine" sung by Phil Collins tells such a tragic story of a young boy I couldn't resist to create a whole character out of it. I then brainstormed a little bit and thought of what might become of a kid who has such a crappy childhood. I guessed such a person will never again return to an entire normal life. Quite on the contrary, the memories of the past most likely will haunt and traumatize such a kid and once he becomes an adult, his whole existence will be formed by the dark events of his past. As a consequence, they are the groundwork for his entire being, in present and future as well. :)

:) I always admire your creativity when it comes to complex characters. Azador is my personal nightmare as a GM, but I really love him.

Well, I guess partly he is supposed to be a GM's nightmare :P
