cr with your wol sounds like hell

all cr is bad

cr where your character is expected to put up with an all powerful asshole is especially bad

"I want to rp my asshole wol and be a huge bitch to everyone so the NPCs have to pat her butt anyway"

Then cry and scream when I opt out of tagging you with my npc ok got it

this feels like those old "anti-mary sue" OCs from the early 2000s where people would make characters that were awful and edgy and not like all the OTHER girls because she was TOUGH and MEAN but all the popular characters hang out with her anyway

i can only hope this is bait and that you aren't serious in thinking that people would actually want to rp with a character like this

you seem to misunderstand the issue with wol rpers. it's not that they want npcs to be their character's friend or lover. it's not that they're goodie two shoes, or girls who are sweet but feisty, or carboy uses, as much as wg dunks on them. it's that wol players get so caught up on what they think is fun to play that they don't stop to think about whether it's fun for their rp character, and your wol is the perfect example of that attitude.

sure, it would be a lot of fun to write someone who isn't an all loving jrpg hero. but would your castmates enjoy it? because unless she only recently revealed what a terrible person she is npc players are going to wonder why the hell they got in so deep with her (and i mean a genuinely bad person who does bad things and harms innocent people, not some surly asshole who's mean but still does the right thing). alisaie players are going to wonder why she never punched her out until this thread. other scion players are going to wonder why she was even hired when there are other people with the echo. estinien and ysayle players are going to wonder why they didn't push her off a cliff while alphinaud wasn't looking and try to handle the plot themselves. people who play characters who were active in stormblood will wonder how this monster was able to unite people to rise up against the empire, while others will wonder why they just don't replace her with fordola. etc etc. sure, you can say your wol is still necessary because she's the best of the best, but that just leads to cr where npc players can do nothing but wring their hands and gnash their teeth over and over and over again. how is that fun to play out?

tl;dr you've created a character that requires your cr to be willing to twist canon and sit around doing nothing for it to work. if you really want to play a wol who's a bad person, find some way to give other players something to work with. make her a sleazebag who keeps her worst tendencies hidden away from friends and allies. make someone who's nice to most of the cast, but has no problem killing kobolds and baby dragons because she doesn't think they're real people. have someone who's self-righteous or hypocritical or a little too bloodthirsty, and one step away from having that twisted into a corruption arc. just give your castmates something to do.

catboy ukes* lol autocorrect

this is worded so well, thank you nona

this is a lot of words about a wol who is not being rped

Lmfao

👌🍆💦

delightful

nah she's gonna peg thancred

joke's on you no one tags in the pegging meme

you can play pegging outside of the pegging meme

good luck finding a het thancred who doesn't just want to fuck urianger's boyhole

happy for him tbh

everyone interested in pegging drops the thread

She's always been abrasive and entitled with wealthy parents. It would be one thing if she just had mine but she was disgusting about poor people and anyone not born with the advantages she was. She was just really his about avoiding talking about it for a while.

Related, does anyone know where her mean girl besties Ali and Yami went? Are they just more low key and that's why I don't run into them anymore or did they finally leave?

i think you missed a couple words there nona

My phone is hell. What I get for being online at work I guess.

Pretty sure Yami left after Yugi won their duel

my life for a het thancred

i'm still convinced that mat wasn't even drunk, but was just hoping everyone would be stupid enough to accept that writing out whole rants like that while blackout drunk was in any way a believable excuse.

sorry but when i got so drunk i can't remember what happened the previous night, i can barely hold my phone straight, even with autocorrect.

That's a very accurate description of her vibe, even with the typoes.

Overall she just is a very sad, pitiable person who brings nothing good to the world and clings to the illusion of self made success to tell herself she has value.

I wonder if that delusion breaking combined with alcohol-related brain damage is what made her go Q-level crazy.

Also, even if they were drunk, alcohol doesn't induce genocidal impulses in people who aren't already at least a little psychotic and a lot assholey.
