Quote:This sounds pretty fun to me! My only real concern is the thought of people possibly metagaming things, but I imagine people would likely get a choice in what does get in. Might be wise to ask for permission from people to put information in if someone does it. Unless what's being proposed is more so for the SL2 lore characters, then disregard what I said (but as I understand it's possibly both?)
I don't think there would be any real point in adding this? There's the whole thing of metagaming if you add player characters into such a thing. Sure other things like the Emperor and the Church knights I'd understand, it just seems to me that people who do willingly are just allowing for this all to be taken IC, which by just reading this information of someone's history doesn't give the overall benefit or point of learning about it ICly. Not to mention the amount of work that would even have to go into this, to begin with:
- Find the player that plays the character
- Finding the said character's history
- Writing it so it's lore friendly
Aside from that, I'm personally heavily against adding 'Player Characters' to a fandom just to be potentially meta gamed to hell. Personally, if you want to find out how other people's characters connect then ask them?
TL;DR I don't want this to seem like I'm coming off aggressive or anything, just wanted to express in someway that this is a bad idea imo.
