So, this is a little game I brought over from the Toyhouse forums. I thought it might be interesting. X)
How this works:
Every so often, I'll make a post asking to see a certain kind of character. All you have to do is comment below with any characters you have who fit the prompt. Feel free to say as much or as little as you want.
I'll write the first prompt/my own example in the comments.

What character do you enjoy writing/RPing with the most?
07 Jun, 2020, 8:27 pm
For me, Crowley is pretty high up on the list. He's reckless, impulsive, and does whatever the heck he wants, no matter what other people think. That makes him a lot of fun.
Another one would be Armin, of course. He's just one of my favourite charas overall.
Luxia is a lot of fun too, the things she says crack me up. She's just a really random, weird person.

Well, Dianne is lots of fun to RP with. Her personality often clashes with others in hilarious ways.
Also, mischievous characters, like Barnabas are alway fun to use.

Ooh yeah, characters like Barnabas are always fun.
He's fun to watch too. XD

I really had fun with this guy back in the day #TrevorAL
it was loads of fun being a ridiculous evil character. I also like rping with Dudley and Marco as they really throw a spin at things.
Harper and the rest of her fam I find exciting to get into, but I haven't rped with them in ages. x)
I tend to have the most fun with odd-balls. Characters that are too nice and pure get stale sometimes for me x'D.
I also get queezy when anything turns sappy hnnnnnnn.
Maybe I just need to rp more, lol.

@Alk
Aww, I like sappy stuff sometimes. XD
I understand the thing about excessively 'nice' characters though, I kinda have that feeling with Arc. He's too good. XD
I prefer morally 'grey' characters.
@Spectral
Ooooh, she sounds awesome. I love characters who are sweet and caring, but can also be really tough and determined. :)

This is a fun and interactive idea! :D
I very naturally lean towards the twins, Hawk and Hunter. They always come in a pair, which makes one-on-one roleplaying a lot more comfortable. Their brother dynamic can be a lot of fun, especially with their personalities being so different from one another.
They're also very easy to stick into any setting? Whether real life or high-key fantasy, just give them a wizard wand or cowboy hat and they'll fit right in. XD
But in long term roleplaying, they're a bit more difficult because I have yet to really flesh out their background and motives. xP

Hawk and Hunteeeer--
I love those guys. I remember when we RPed with them briefly, they were a lot of fun to interact with. I love twin dynamics too. XD

They are a fun pair x'D
I guess I don't have a good enough experience with sappy stuff so I can easily become uncomfortable. (Errr romantic things fet me turning in many different conflicting directions, perhaps I don't fully understand it yet though. In the grand scheme of things I know nothing x) )
I'm individualistic, agnostic and existential at heart (whoah that's a lot of things)
So I tend to love and be fascinated by the morally grey as well.
Cryptic and or characters who are just messed up complicated people, it makes them feel real and is satisfying when you see them break down, crumble and fall. X'D
So I suppose poetic and tragic characters are also some of my favorites, but that's hard to pull off in something as spontaneous as an rp. You have to think on your feet a lot, and easily can fall out of character or loose a track of an argument/point.
Which is why I'm aiming to do it more often! To get better at writing fast and efficiently. X'D
Some of my favorite writers came out of senior year in highschool and really inspired and awed me with their characters. I thoroughly enjoyed trying to understand and pick them down each having their own trials, tribulations and really deep messages that some find depressing. I love it, it's so brilliant :')

@Alk - I like long rambly posts though, it's fun to read. XD
08 Jun, 2020, 2:16 pm
OK, I'll just drop a couple more. These are not specifically characters I like RPing with, but ones I enjoy writing in general.
Lucifer - I kinda relate to him in some ways, and though I haven't written him much I really enjoy it. Pure boy who's just a bit lost in the world.
Cherry - Most of her stories are long rambling monologues based around her inner feelings, which are hard work but very satisfying to do. She's not much fun to RP with because she's pretty quiet, but her inner thoughts get d e e p.
08 Jun, 2020, 6:14 pm
Ramble tamble!
I honestly find inner monologue easier to do for some reason. X'D
First person seems easier than third for that same reason. Though I try to go third if I can?
Ooooo they sound interesting! Cherry sounds sweet x)
Yea quiet characters can be a bit hard, you have to have someone prompt them into talking.
