#40129, "RE: Let me make sure I understand.."

>A fair statement, but you'd think someone would be able to >tell the difference between you the player and the character, >I mean you were titled etc.
Not without wiretapping your phones, which I'm not legally allowed to do. Where's mine, Patriot Act? Where's mine?! Ahem.
What it amounts to is this:
Qulenit = Sardonic, a little arrogant in a friendly way, helpful, and at times a bit of an abrasive jerk. The kind of guy you would call when you're stuck in a death trap but not the guy you want to get mud-married to in the Lyceum one day.
Qulenit's player = Presumably similarly sardonic, a little bit arrogant in a friendly way, helpful, and at times a bit of an abrasive jerk.
That doesn't mean Qulenit talked on Fort CB about his car or dog or whatever. It just means the rough personality and speech of the character is similar to that of the player.
But, you know? I even thought he was a pretty good Acolyte. He went out of his way to help people out and took some risks to do so. There's little, if anything, in the character that wasn't solid for what he was supposed to be.
I'm not running a cabal, but #### if I wouldn't have given Qulenit everything Team Fort did and probably a hell of a lot more in their place. Not all the well-played characters in this game are missing arms, have elaborate accents, or are the product of garishly elaborate backstories. Some are just plain solid and good. You need these relatively archetypal characters for the out-there ones to have something to play off of and not just be stupid, and this would've been a good character if it were played by a froofy hugful mom type and it's still a good character having been played by a sardonic jerk. (Although the former would impress me more, after the fact.)
>Do >you blame me for inquiring how this can be so?
I do. It reeks of jealousy and misdirected criticism. If you can't outshine a guy RPing a character similar to himself, that says more about you than it says about him.
