(ooc: ~To members of the clan only~
Based on comments that have been passed about my character, my general sense is that there are some out there who find her too wishy-washy, at least as far as her romance was going. Let me state upfront that this was intended to be her weakness, and that I had intended to create a minor sub-plot in which she overcomes this over the passage of time. As it is, I have now changed the script and she is more stabilised. However, I am not entirely pleased with this result.
I am disappointed by how some of us can be so judgemental about fictional characters; I dread to think how they would have reacted to real-life persons with similar characteristics (would they also criticise rather than help such people?).
What I am trying to say is that I am beginning to feel stifled in my attempts to create a more interesting and multi-dimensional character. I am sensing unspoken vibes for my character to behave in a certain way (especially to cut her scenes short), and this is eroding my enjoyment of the roleplaying. While I would like to ignore what others say/feel/think about my own plans, I know I am not quite capable of doing so as my nature is to please others, so that there is little friction.
I would like the remaining members' feedback within the day, as to whether my character still has value in the plot. If the answer is no, I will remove her from the plot with no questions asked.
Oh, and I will not be posting any actions by my character until I hear everyone's feedback.
To Larry~ I am terribly sorry for leaving your character in this state, but you should not let this hinder your character's actions. I just felt that this is an opportune time to sort matters out while not much action is taking place.)
