Regarding characters...

[Lem]

Hi! Lem here, just lurking until I get my character sheet done.

So, on the subject of character sheets, I have a question about the...play-bys? Is that what they're called? My character doesn't exactly have a celerity look-alike, so I'm very confused on whether a play-by is necessary, and what I should do if I can't find one.

If you could answer my question that would be great!

The play-bys are necessary. We can help you find one that closest looks like the character you have in mind if you'd like.

Of course they'll never look perfectly alike, because the image in your head is yours and yours alone. But think of it as an author writing a book, and then giving the book to a director who then has to find an actor to play that character for the movie version.
It's just a face for the rest of us to picture.

Thank you! I guess I'll have to go back to looking, then. UoU

[Admin Courtney]

Would you like help? I could help you look if you describe your character to me.

Actually, I had a stroke of luck and found a pretty good one! Apparently it helps to just search the features I had in mind and not get so fickle over the nose. It's always the noses! Thanks for offering, though

Awesome! Glad to hear it. Can't wait to meet your character
