RE: Recreation - Adolar - 04-03-2014
Besides the usual adventuring, Adolar loves to read, often adventure novels (it would probably be considered fantasy novels in the real world.
). It's not something I have had much chance to RP but he usually carries around at least one book with him whenever he's away from home, which is quite often lately.He also has a thing for crafting and cooking. Growing up with an excellent blacksmith of a dad taught him the value of a well-crafted item so he would always pay close attention to every little detail with anything he creates. He doesn't believe his work is very good, however...
Also, the love for fishing is something that seems to be shared among all of my characters. It's such a simple hobby that it's hard for them not to enjoy it.

...I have never thought about adding this to my character. I can't honestly think of anything. She is usually either out training or passed out drunk somewhere. I think she needs a hobby...maybe she will take up bird watching...or a drug addiction or something :3.

Kiht is a hunter, and I've always wanted someone to ICly hunt with. If anyone were to mention hunting to her, she would get uber excited.
Kiht use to explore a lot as well when she was more lonely. However, with her responsibilities lately, she doesn't have much time for random exploration.
Kiht's newest hobby is fishing. I'd ICly fish with people as well when I am feeling up for some relaxing RP.

My character fishes IC, and hunts, which is one of the few times he'd be seen carrying his longbow. He's an avid reader and, while he is by no means a bard, plays the mandolin fairly well. Sparring, racing on foot or on chocoback, and marksmanship contests are among his favorite physical activities.
As for games and such, Yvelont enjoys game of chance. Craps and the like. I've even RPed a game of poker dice, something I'd like to try again; I also played an entire chess match with someone, something I will NEVER EVER try again because it became so hard to keep track of everything.
The text-based game I played for several years (GemStone IV) incorporated a lot of things like this into the game. I had a set of poker dice, there was a dartboard at one of the taverns that used your throwing skill, and jousting at one of the annual festivals. Just a lot of "pointless" fluff mostly designed to increase interactivity between players at a time when there could often be 2,000+ people on at prime time. I sometimes miss it.
