I thought it was a chocolate chip

Rundown: [community profile] 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.

colette brunel | tales of symphonia

reposting from last post!

Post-Symphonia, pooooossibly post-DOTNW. Still not sure if I want to pick her up, but it's been on my mind for a while and I figured I'd at least ask around here for tips! You can just throw your thoughts at me, anything at all would be helpful, particularly things to avoid with her.

That wasn't particularly helpful. She's pure pureness, that's clear to anyone who's played the game, but how much is too much?

she's not pure pureness, though? it's really clear in the game that she's a genuinely good and sweet person, but a lot of how she expresses that is also mixed up with her expectations of herself as a chosen who people look to for help with world regeneration and her issues with feeling like the chosen has no worth outside of helping people. most of her main character conflicts in the game are her struggling with that. she's nice to everyone and doesn't want to put people out by admitting she has problems because she doesn't think she's worth anything as a person, that's why she covers up her arm turning to fucking crystal even after it's clear that everyone's worried about her. she feels like having any issues now that she's still alive is failing the rest of the world even more than originally deviating from the chosen journey and it makes her ugly and even more worthless.

she basically latches onto lloyd and everyone's belief in her as something to affirm herself and figures out a way to live with that and still try to help the world but her whole character is basically a play on "what would actually happen if you raised a nice person in the belief that their life as a person meant nothing in comparison to how great it will be for everyone when they die."

unless "kind of hating yourself" and "existential crisis" are how you define "pure pureness," anon...

Holy shit you are way too passive aggressive to play Colette. My suggestion? Pick up a different muse.

actually, my suggestion is to take a step back and look at how you're acting

no one owes you advice at all. there was really no reason to be rude about it

what?

anon, you were a fucking dickwad to the advice-asker to start with. their reply to your being a fucking dickwad was foreseeable and expected.

shockingly when you are a fucking dickwad to people, they aren't that nice back to you. i know this is a new concept for you, but we at rpanons are here to hold your hand through the venture before we drop you off a cliff.

...because if your personality is different from your character's, you can't play them well?

if you were going for some sort of sick burn there you didn't exactly stick the landing
