Nikodin/Roleplay Preferences

Likes

• Detail, Prose, Quality. I like to See your character with all my senses. I prefer larger poses.

• Action, intensity, drama. Not pushover or fake, but deep, moving story-lines with plots and arcs as grandiose as G.R.R. Martin.

• Sadomasochistic players. You here to experience what you'd be like under stress? Pressure? Darkness? Me too.

• Darkness. Dark characters, twisted plots, villains, agony, weaknesses, flaws, visible fragile sides, addictions. It really makes a character's soul sing.

• Institute RP. Coercion, Blackmail, Force, subtle and ongoing hostage situations, NPC attachments, etc.

• Love, Friendship, History. Those things are absolutely important. How can you have lows without the highs? They are what make us (in)human.

Neutral

• Slice of Life RP. Boring as Hell. I have slice of life in real life all the time. I don't mind doing it just for character development but I really don't get how RP satisfaction can be brought trying to live a normal albeit richer life in character than we have IRL. Niko does venture out to slice of life places, but only to build relationships. Slice of Life is fine in moderation in between moments of darkness (as a darkness alleviate or comic relief), but I am here for the World of Darkness after all.

Dislikes

• Phone RP - Just gonna.. gracefully bow out of that one.

• OOC Discussions about Religions or Political views. My love of absolute freedom of thought and speech can hinder some.

• Children - It is my opinion that children in WoD have one purpose - to Die. To generate Drama, and Loss. For any other reason, Children should have NO place on this game, as it is an adult only game. I abhor the desperate cuteness of a child brought into world of darkness, especially should this child NPC ever wield power, which is laughable. I am not into any sort of RP with children or a player who likes to RP with children, I am not here for cutsey time I wish-I-Had-children in WoD, I am here for the Darkness part. Please understand this is the reason why I will bow out and lose interest in any scene with a child present.

• Here's how I think of it if you want to understand me and read on this rant: You log into your game, you're looking for some dark RP. You want to go down the rabbit hole. You've got a 'darkness boner' in your mind that's thinking about violence, and blood, the risk of losing someone you care about; A fight for your life, a fight to win for humanity; a Quest against darkness. You are clawing out of a grave to survive... And you see a PC. And you're intrigued. You wonder, could they jump into the rabbit hole with you? So you go to their wiki... you click it.... And POOF go your fantasies, because it's a 'cute' pic of a child somewhere in there. And it burns. And you want to scream, but you are too busy vomiting because you just had a darkness boner and now that darkness is laughing at you, because Ha ha, here is something CUTE for ya! And so you cry, quietly, curled up in a corner of your mind, weeping because you really wanted to see a pair of big fangs, or a monster tearing someone else to pieces, or some other dark pic. Thus... the cute things you see, can scar your Darkness, forever!

• This includes any OOC discussions about children. I just... don't care; don't want to know.
