I know there's been talk about how to handle introvert characters or how to describe specifics of a character that are minor in detail but I was curious about two in particular areas that have always given me a "huh..." moment.
The first being, how do you explain your weapons when you carry them (assuming you do). Some of which seem overly large or aren't truly connected to anything. Best example I can think of is having an axe on your back but you're shirtless(so no straps or anything to latch it onto). Assuming it's relevant to your character, do you emote or mention it every session or etc? Or do you just leave it on your back and hope people assume you have an invisible strap around you?
The other is more or less similar to the often introvert questions but I was still curious regardless. How do you RP a.. "mean" character? I mean, being shy, introvert, or openly blunt is one thing, but what about a character that is an introvert but also an aggressive asshat? I know it's common to keep in mind that you =/= your character but I wondered how comfortable people will be to start a session with someone so quiet and then when they do walkup, they get aggressive IC treatment. It feels like a "don't bite the hand that feeds you" kinda deal. You finally get someone to walkup but you fear of putting them off from how the character naturally is. Thoughts?
