🔑 17. Which character is the easiest to draw/write?
It really varies! Lately, it’s been Mairèad, just because she’s gotten out of that funk and is actually having a good time. And she’s got life and development happening and it’s grand. I feel like I need to give newer characters more chances, though I really struggle with starting new characters, so that’s a fun time, let me tell you.
🕸 1. Who’s the oldest character of yours that you still use?
That I still use regularly is definitely Mairèad. That I use a lot more sparingly is Senkha. I can’t let them go.
⭐️ 2. Who’s the oldest character of yours, defunct or not?
Nalicia. I rolled her in March of 2006, which makes her 11 years old. Her original incarnation is currently an orc on Steamwheedle Cartel; her current incarnation is a priest (I used to say, way back in 2006, “If Tauren could be priests, she’d be a priest, but that’ll never happen...”).
💎 18. Is there anything you really wish you could do, character-design-wise, that you feel is outside your current skillset? A concept that you wish you could pull off but are uncertain about?
I’m going to leave off designs because I can’t draw for shit :D
Concept-wise, there are a lot of things. I’d like to play a dragon at some point, like seriously play one, but I want to make sure that they’d have a personality and storyline and RP hooks besides “dragon,” and that ends up being a struggle in development. I’d like to do some sort of sex worker/prostitute type character, but not for ERP’s sake (because ERP with randos is just a bad idea, I have stories), more for like--these characters exist in this world probably and it’d be an interesting story to tell. I don’t ever do THAT one because implications tend towards “omg you just want all the ERP you are IMMORAL” and I just do not have energy.
And then you have all my already created alts just sitting around and collecting dust because I’m bad at jumping into RP. There’s my Blood Knight over on MG, with her fridged husband and a chip on her shoulder about war in general. There’s my draenei shaman who’s kind of an atheist regarding the Light (”I know we’re the Light’s chosen, but can’t the Light choose somebody else for a change?”). There’s my high elf astromancer druid, manipulating the space between the stars. There’s my gryphon rider who has roughly 500 gryphons and mostly exists so I can imagine flying around. And about 50,000 other concepts and characters that I just don’t feel confident enough about to play yet.
