meme: more than meets the eye

Here is a meme that doesn't have a ton of back and forth but it's useful. So fun and useful! And I know we like talking about our characters.

There are certain characteristics about the people we play that *we* know, but we get tired of repeating in every introductory ping. There's also stuff that players wouldn't really be able to figure out just looking at an icon--how tall someone is, if they have an accent, what kind of clothes they are wearing...and in some cases, if their eyes/hair/whatever are different than the PB we've picked.

So wax poetic about what your characters look/sound like, if they have tics or scars, how they dress, if they have a distinct singing voice, etc!


Just a good reference to have in case you're in a casual thread and are like "Hmm does Anakin wear those robes 24/7 or is there a casual Friday where he wears jorts" or "I wonder what Eddie Munson smells like?"

Here is last year's example!

  • somewhere in the nebulous region of his mid-40s, though Paul Rudd is currently almost 54. (I actually think he does, in fact, look his age. He just looks great for it.)

  • 5'10", green eyes, brown hair, perpetual five o'clock shadow, very smiley

  • tends to wear a lot of t-shirts, jeans, hoodies, and baseball caps. And he's probably more ripped than you thought under all those hoodies. I have no idea how he maintains this while also having the pastry habit I've given him on-island, but such is the magic of being a fictional character, I suppose.

  • when he's suited up in the Ant-Man suit -- which, you know, is not very often -- it is a black-and-red suit with a chrome helmet that covers his face, but Scott can pop the visor open.

  • sounds like this, and that's also a really good example of the dude's general demeanor, too.
