1) I am a cruel god and enjoy putting my characters (and other people's characters if they like the same thing) through horrible, horrible things. ADVERSITY BUILDS CHARACTER.
2) Romance RP only interests me when it has a really awesome conflict (either the lovers are against each other or have to work together to endure some kind of trial or fight for some sort of goal) and would make for an interesting story. Otherwise I get bored as shit and have no interest.
3) I give the characters I spend the most time on (mains) the most complicated backgrounds and personalities. Alts get much simpler backgrounds and personalities that are easy for me to get into. This is because building up the RP for the complex characters takes a bigger time investment where as the alts are characters I just want to dive into and have fun with in bursts.
Unfortunately this means I have a ton of really awesome character ideas I want to run with, that I can't, because the time-investment is too high for an alt.
