Character Creation in HELLSITE

HELLSITE is a TTRPG all about, and using, feed-based social media like Twitter, Tumblr, etc. The creation of a social media account is a required bit of utility of the game, but it also features here as a discovery-based form of character creation.

First up is making the profile and bio, which is done by making a real-world Twitter/Tumblr/etc account, acting as both a live character sheet and means of summing your in-game Avatars.

As any of us who have spent enough time on a platform now, what is included and not included (ignoring even the content itself) tells you a lot about that person. The sheer amount that your character includes is a pretty handy indicator of their age- or at least of the age and era they came to discover the internet. Whether or not your character includes pronouns could say something about their political leanings or just the specific subcultures they exist in. Adding a DNI list tells you about their icks and dislikes, but also about their history as a citizen of the internet.

Next comes choosing who your character follows on their account. Quick caveat to the above teaser from the- it very much assumes that the player is using Twitter in their game. Trying to find political figures or even news outlets to follow on Tumblr is nearly impossible, and when it comes to celebrities, you have a whole 2 options. I'll be reworking this page with some more platform-specific recommendations in the final game (: But with that out of the way, the player is prompted to consider more specifically what their character is interested in, who they trust, what they want to be updated on, and what they find funny. These aren't set-in-stone decisions, rather, they're meant to be a series of breadcrumbs the player can use to learn more and more about their character.

My goal with this system is that players can "find" their character and jump into roleplay more easily by asking them a series of questions they ask themselves everyday: What do I want people to know about me when they visit my page? Did this post pique my interest? Do I want to know more about this person's life? Will following this account result in more posts that I like than posts that I don't care about? Does this account share my worldview? Do I care? I'll get into the utility of how the posts on your feed affect the game and the powers granted by your Avatar in another post, but for now, I hope this shed some light on a part of this game I'm really excited to create further! If any of this interested you, HELLSITE is currently live on Kickstarter!

They're not perfect, but they're as good as they're gonna get without me nosediving into a self critical spiral. That being said, I'm really happy with the wings!

I broke a few off before I even primed this, So it's not perfect, But it's going to look great on Typhus, And it'll look excellent from 3 feet away ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Substitute "no girls" with nobody, and this becomes the most ridiculously accurate attack on me I've ever seen

NO girls should flirt with me because they will find out that as soon as it gets to the sexy talk stage i cant turn off the jesters spirit and i will continue to make jokes. there is no sexy in me only the bit and brother i stay chompin

Me, ugly crying into my perciatelli Alfredo at one in the morning:

Maybe in a world where supervillains were real, me and the other kids could have gotten someone to give a damn about us long enough to kill a man who deserved nothing less.

I cannot express how down bad I am for this woman, and it's wreaking havoc on my brain.

The fact that I had friends teasing me about a character in a game for I didn't play for *weeks* should have been a warning.

fyi the point of fucking up your data patterns isnt to avoid suspicion. it’s to make EVERYONE suspicious. same logic as the bloc, pals.  protect your comrades, be suspicious. ESPECIALLY if you aren’t doing anything likely to get you arrested.
