Character IMs (Inner Monologue)
Posted: Sat Jul 31, 2010 5:43 pm
I thought that I would share this really fun character exorcise with my fellow Eilistraeeans. A close friend of mine came up with the idea, and shared it on DA: it's basically an in character shout out. You put an image of your character on the page - or not, I've seen a few rpers who can't draw, and just skip the picture - and fill the blanks in with varying colour/font versions of their inner thoughts. These aren't nessicarily things that the characters would ever say out loud, since it's 'inner', and often it's fun to sneak on a few things that people didn't know about them.
I'll share the ones for my Eilistraeean home rp characters.
A bit of background on the characters, just in case they're found to be confusing....
These guys are second gen characters. Their mother is a drowcleric/sorceress/divine agent of Eilistraee that I've rped since '93, and 'most' of them have a holy warrior/divine agent of Shevarash for their father. And yup, there is a long, drawn out love story between their parents. O.o Very opposite sides of the track there. The second gen started being created/played in '03 with some planescaping reasons for them being older then they should be, and after rping them from low levels to around 16th-19th level, they've now crossed over into the Dragonstar setting. (A non D&D, d20 spacefaring/fantasy setting which is really amazing.) In our home campain they've been using the infonet (internet) of that plane to spread the word of Eilistraee, and in our home game saved her, but having her worship spread to other planes before her Faerun version was destroyed.
They were all born/raised in the planes. Originally in Svartalfheim, which was said to be Eilistraee's realm in the 2nd ed Planescape books, then to Arvandor when Eilistraee's realm was re-printed as there in 3rd ed. We had an rp of the Goddess's realm being accepted into Arvandor, and quite a few changes happened to her realm.
[b:35kukjpi]I encourage you guys to make your own IMs, since they are so much fun and great to skim over before an rp session. I do have to warn you though, they are addictive!
If you post them on DA, you should put a link to Engi-Fox on there, who came up with the IM concept.[/b:35kukjpi]
[b:35kukjpi]I'll post each IM seperately.[/b:35kukjpi]
