So, many of us create their characters with some sort of an idea behind it, right? I know that every one of my characters have some sort of an idea behind it to make our character have a purpose. Sometimes we attain that goal through keeping active enough and maybe finding some suckers to push the plot along, but many of us let that story Arc fade away until we finally get bored of our character and Archive it.
One of the biggest issue we may run into with getting our personal story Arcs off the ground or even completed is a lack of being able to find dedicated enough RPers willing to stick with the story before disapearing off the site -like what happens with those New to the site that write off of new RPer hype; And when that hype wears off, they just quit the site without a word. Well, like in real life, we need to pitch our ideas to other people with similar interests and give incentive for them to participate in Our Story Arc as much as we participate in Their Story Arc. The ultimate point I am trying to convey here is that we can all work together to combine our story Arcs (if possible) so that we can actually accomplish our goals!
So, I ask you, "What is YOUR story Arc?"
I ask you this in hopes that your personal story Arc can somehow link up with mine, and we can all get what we want out of this.
Now, I too have a story Arc, and it would be foolish of me to keep it to myself while at the same time I am asking others to share their ideas; So, here we go!
My newest Indie Character, Artello Kulfar, is a Noble from Ord Cantrell (K-6) who has fallen in love with a girl, impregnated her, and lost her to an overprotective family that he is currently at odds against (Romeo and Juliet Story-esque).
There are a lot of motives behind the story and a rather lengthy back story, but here are the basics:
- Artello uses the Sith-Jedi War to conquer his home planet to unify it the hard way.
- Artello also uses this as an excuse to get in touch with the only person that would know where his love and child reside and Force them to reveal their location to him.
- Finally, this will detail his fall to the Dark side and joining the Sith ultimately.
