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.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.

i think interesting flaws need to be almost paradoxical because they give characters internal conflict that manifests itself in their actions.

for example, one of my characters is very, very stubborn with a short temper and judgemental attitude. however, she's also quick to adapt when bad things happen to her (e.g. she loses all her money and suddenly becomes a champion of the working class when she has to get a job).

just think of two seemingly contradictory traits and think of ways that they can be combined. for example, something as simple as "free-spirited vs controlling" can be someone who loves to be around their friends doing dumb shit, but only if they're in control of what everyone is doing.
