If you all were considering this type of silent character, how would help your character to come to communicate with others?
There's some mixed views on this. Some roleplayers believe that having a Qestir utilize any form of language, verbal or nonverbal, goes against their lore as a tribe who communicates via their actions. Which leaves describing your intentions purely through gestures, emote actions, pointing, etc. Others take a more lenient view and say sign language and the written word is fine because Qestir lore focuses so much on the spoken word as opposed to other methods of communication. The three threads below I'd definitely recommend reading as they each go into these opinions on how to RP Qestir and many ways they can be emoted, communicate, etc.
- Qestir RPpers: how do you handle communication?
- Would this be annoying
- RP a silent character.
Hope this helps! ^^
