Rundown:

rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Temporary Change: To reduce the strain on Dreamwidth's servers new entries will go up when a post reaches 3,000. Please refrain from spamming so we can stretch these entries for a little longer. We don't need several threads soliciting photo evidence of body parts, and we already know that we only care about yaoi. Failure to comply will only result in deletions and butthurt.

I'm a little uncomfortable with the Andromeda and how she's portrayed but I can tolerate them. My main problem with that cast is Murder and she's the only reason I hesitate to interact with any of them.

I understand the character is inquisitive, but he's not of abnormally high intelligence and is cautious of adults, it would seem? It comes off as very attention-seeking and I know at least of one person who was not contacted prior and was thrust into an awkward position with this iteration of Trowa. I know of some people who had problems with the character before the age-down where Grimm would jump in with the character and without contacting them OOC would put them in a position where they basically would have to agree to whatever or seem like a jerk (but in these cases they would have been a jerk for denying them no matter what).

Another thing I dislike is how they are always bringing up plots and characters they played forever ago. I know someone who wanted to play someone Grimm (or Ty?) played in the past, but chose not to app for that reason.

I was wondering if I was the only one who felt the Andromeda was off. I don't think a character that relies on so much head-canon should have been accepted to the game, but beyond that the CR between her and Dick (and Damian) makes me really uncomfortable. Dick is 28 at the oldest and Andromeda has to be MAYBE 54 at the youngest.

The 'sexy' PB choice is probably part of it, but her tags often read like a gentler version of early Nancy Botwin or an original character set in the HP universe with the name of a canon character.

According to the mun on the not!meme at GDS, Andromeda is 46 in game. Personally I don't have any objections to the age difference, but if it really concerns you, you may want to mention it to Lettie and Lyrie.

The age difference doesn't bother me, but the OOCness of the relationship and how she is written like a fan character does.

Hi anon(s)! First off I want to apologize if I have made anyone uncomfortable, that is definitely not something I want to do! Second of all, I hadn't posted up an HMD to my character journal since there hadn't been much response in the game-wide HMD, but I can certainly do so if you would feel more comfortable talking there. If not, I can try to explain a little here -- just let me know. I am on my way to work so it might be a while until I get back to you, but I promise I will get back.
