When it comes to roleplaying, my characters are almost always weakness-driven. I don't like coming up with characters starting from their strengths. It baffles me that some people just throw together strengths and don't think about weaknesses at all. I find weaknesses and limitations so much more interesting.

Three OC examples under the cut.

Einar Odinsson. He's a 773-year-old vampire who has accumulated a lot of knowledge about cultures and he's generally very accepting of other cultures (not necessarily all practices, but he seldom judges individuals who grew up in certain cultures). He's also rather good with numbers and genuinely cares for the wellbeing of others and the planet. ...but he's also impatient, impulsive, sensitive, overdramatic, insecure, and hypocritical. He wants to stop the climate change yet drives a car because it's easy. He wants a relationship but is afraid of risking heartbreak.

Phoenix Myers. He's a 27-year-old data analyst who is very math-savvy and good at programming and understands physics, and when he relaxes, he's also visually creative. ...but how can he relax when the world is uncomfortable? He has Avoidant Personality Disorder and he dissociates a lot.

Malachai Solace. They're a 21-year-old YouTuber who has an abundance of ideas and who isn't afraid of trying new things, and they also have a great self-esteem. ...but they're not knowledgeable about the world (they grew up in a cult, how could they be?).

BIG ANNOUNCEMENT TO ALL HOMESTUCK FANS

so, i've been getting very interested in the decentralization of the web recently, and i found a free forum hosting website the other day.

so i got to work making a homestuck-oriented forum, and it's finally up and running!!

it's still a little wonky, and it still needs the finishing touches (and i plan to do a lot more with it once i learn how), but it's definitely functional.

HIGHLIGHTS:

specialized boards for everything from classpects, to fanfic, to shitposting, to fantrolls, to roleplay!

informal moderation and causal atmosphere

a no-tolerance policy for any variety of bigotry

general, non-homestuck chats!

ALSO, NOTE: i will be opening up applications for mods, and i plan to have this as a mixed-age server, with links to outside-hosted NSFW content (in keeping with the terms of service of proboards). so i will need some 18+ mods for the specific threads that those links will be housed in and the discussions around them (and just because it’s good to have some older mods). but anyone can apply to mod!

edit: mod apps open in the server, check the announcements channel!

so, if you're a fan of homestuck and interested in web-decentralization, here's the link to the forum!

(also, please reblog! i'm very excited about this, and i would really like people to see this)

i think before joining or making a minecraft roleplay server every creator needs to either have played at least ONE campagin of a ttrpg of their choice (doesnt have to be dnd) or they must have spent their entire childhood roleplaying with people on any social media/forum/chat app their tiny hands could get a hold on. i want these minecraft roleplayers to have backgrounds in doing roleplay with actions written out *like this* in their friends text messages and getting into insane drama as teenagers in discord roleplay servers

#if you really want to get into it. there needs to be more mcrps with members who got in trouble for having mary sue ocs on roleplay forums--#for the record i did in fact do both of the things mentioned at the end here #shout out to my bestie in middle school who would do underfell bone brothers rp with me #we texted each other roleplay and also sent each other voice messages. and also did it irl .#mcyt #mcrp #qsmp #and. to be mean #dsmp #yes i know this would possibly disqualify tubbo because he hasnt played dnd before now #but. he knows what kinning means. i KNOW he knows what kinning means #and he knows the spiritual definition. and hes a creek shipper #im sure that man has SOME sort of roleplay history before joining minecraft smps ok #on the note of things ive gotten into though i have in fact gotten into insane drama because of discord roleplay servers #shoutout to the rp server that ended because one of the main writers partners cheated on them . that server was a pit of toxic waste #but boy did 15yr old me really enjoy working on the story except for all the times i got suicidal about it #but thats the magic of roleplaying as a teenager ok #if you didnt come out of it traumatized were you REALLY roleplaying.

"Text-based roleplaying is a nice, relaxing hobby! No pressure!"

...cool theory, however, in the real world...

...to make my newest character, Atlas, I:

researched Eastern Orthodoxy (Atlas grew up Eastern Orthodox but is questioning Divine Providence in a very un-Orthodox way)

researched Eastern Orthodox baby naming rituals, came up with a naming ritual for a witch family, and then combined the two

emailed an Eastern Orthodox priest to ask about saints that might work for a trans man and be known in Finland (he named Saint Blessed Xenia of St. Petersburg) (because Atlas carries a small religious icon with him at all times)

spent countless hours researching Karelian language (to name one sculpture that Atlas made five years ago)

researched where those evacuated from Ruskeala (in Ladoga Karelia) after Moscow Armistice (in 1944) were sent in Finland and how the process of being evacuated worked (to write one paragraph about the grandparents of Atlas)

went to my town's orthodox parish's käspaikka/rushnyk exhibition (because Atlas uses double running stitch in his jewelry art, and his aesthetic is a modernized version of käspaikka/rushnyk)

borrowed four books from the library: three about käspaikka/rushnyk, one about double running stitch (again, Atlas uses double running stitch in his jewelry art)

spent countless hours researching flax (Atlas has a tiny flax field on his yard, and he weaves it into a fabric himself)

spent countless hours researching the elättikäärme tradition of Finland (a wild snake that agrees to live in a house to bring luck, because Atlas has an elättikäärme)

I also made up new stuff about how elättikäärme might live and behave

researched the taste of raw human heart (because Atlas gained a skill after eating his uncle's heart)

wrote a business plan for his jewelry business (because of course)

researched pesäpallo (Finnish baseball) results of 2018 to be able to refer correctly to a game

And please don't ever allow me to talk about all the research I've done for Einar. He was born in the 13th century in Northern Norway, married a Saami woman, became a vampire, left his wife and son, moved all around Europe... and now we're in 2023. That's a shit-ton of research.

I can't allow myself to make mistakes in things that can be made factually correct with a bit of research.

Especially if the mistakes could end up reinforcing harmful stereotypes.
