II. RP Style
- Amount of RP (light, medium, heavy):
- Medium, I tend to enjoy heavy RP, but I don't always find the time to schedule for events. I also find that I get a bit overwhelmed with too many people about, so you likely won't see me at any kind of IC get-togethers without a bit of goading.
- Views on RP combat and injuries:
- I love to RP injuries, and well-respect those who can pull of a mute character, or one that has a crippling affliction. Working around such things makes RP quite fun.
As far as combat, I tend to avoid it, primarily because it can take a great deal of time if done well, and be quite annoying if done wrong. I much prefer rolling in combat rather than ad-libbing a back and forth, so that neither RPer has a clear advantage. It's understandable, however, if a character is mostly defenseless.
- Views on IC romance:
- I like romance. It really depends on the situation, but I can usually get on board with it. Vi is somewhat dense when it comes to love and lust, however, so it might take a few knocks on the head for her to realize anyone has any affection for her.
- Views on non-romantic RP (family ties, etc):
- I'm shaky on family. For the most part, like many who prepare their characters like I have, most, if not all, of Vi's family is dead. It's assumed that she's distanced herself as much as possible, part out of necessity, part out of hearing all of the rumors herself, so it's unlikely she'd find another from her bloodline.
That said, if done tactfully, I'd definitely not be against it.
- Views on lore:
- I like lore to be upheld pretty strictly, though I do understand that not everything is always spelled out, and sometimes to make things interesting you have to make it up as you go along. I can't say I fully care for those who name spells, and I prefer a slightly more D&D Prestidigitation style approach to magic, where it's more of a flowing manipulation than a straight-up casting of named spells. Same with the skills of other 'classes'. I also don't always get on board with people carrying minions around as IC pets, depending on the situation. I tend to ignore a good portion of visuals in service to the text descriptions.
- Views on chat functions (/say, /linkshell, etc):
- Depends on the situation. Private things should be in /tells or /party chat. I like it when /linkshell chat is used as an actual IC linkshell, though a lot of times the lines are blurred if it's not specifically IC or OOC. Every method of chat has its pros and cons, so generally I'm at least tolerant of every method of RPing and separating IC and OOC.

- Country:Eastern US

- Contact info:Mostly in game, though I'm not against skype or steam chatting here and there. Skype can be useful for some RP since it keeps track of history well.
