THE QUESTIONS MEME

A first big 'n successful round of apps has concluded and the game is getting off to a roll - since there are always brains to be picked and new pals and acquaintances to be made, how's about we all play a little getting-to-know-you game?

HOW TO PLAY:
• Leave a comment below with your name and the characters who you play.
• Respond to others' comments with questions - they can be about their characters, their current in-game plans or things they'd like to play, their CR, RP in general, their canons and fandoms, or most anything else.
• Answer questions you've received! Keep it short or TL;DR to your heart's content, depending on how much you have or are in the mood to say!
• After each answer you give, ask a question back to the person who answered you. Keep the thread of questioning up for as long as both parties are game!
• Go for it - make friends, make new plans, make anything you like!

What is like playing from a canon that updated really recently and got a surge in DWRP popularity as a result, and having so many castmates?

Like, I reckon it must be quite the feeling, and it is not something I have any experience with myself.

Oh man, it is a RIDE.

I played Riku in a game (CFUD) once before, many years ago, and after I dropped him there I just really hadn't had any urge to pick him up again outside of occasional PSL threads, for a long time. But it was a super fun and formative time, and I'm still friends with most of the cast from back then.

Anyway, I have no idea how it feels for someone who was playing from KH before KH3 came out, since I'm part of the surge of renewed interest - but as a part of that surge, I'm having a BLAST. It's so nostalgic picking up my baby boy after all this time, and meeting all these new cool people who are now my castmates has been so much fun.

As an aside, I'm the kind of RPer who has a lot of trouble making out-of-cast CR - it's a weakness I'm trying to work on, because it means my characters instantly become unsustainable if too much of their cast leaves - so I more or less always end up in big casts. It's always a lot of fun when everyone's engaged and energized, but it does get sad when players inevitably move on. I imagine that part's a little easier when you have a small cast or play a lone canon warrior?

That sounds awesome. :D

And I think I am the opposite of you, CR-wise. I haven’t found any canonmates/castmates I’ve clicked with yet - I think most of them probably view my character with caution because they expect me to have him immediately kill their characters, even though “Temple kills your character” is not the type of CR I like playing out and I don’t think Temple would do it in the kinds of RPs I prefer (either because he lacks the means, he’s went through character development, he needs the advantage that allying with or acting neutral towards the character would give him, he doesn’t want to upset his close CR or the setting’s NPCs, and/or it’s a meme or PSL AU) - and most of my RP has been with Temple as a Lone Canon Warrior and he interacts better with crosscanon characters so far than with canonmates/castmates.

So I envy people with tons of compatible castmates a lot.
