Yeah, as anda can tell from the typing, this is pure opinion, but I am hoping sejak the end of this everyone sees that character sheets are a necessary part of a great RPG.
First off, character sheets increase the amount of knowledge all the other roleplayers have on the character, giving them the ability to create intricate methods that curb to the character's facts. Ultimately making the roleplay much lebih intense and enjoyable.
They also give others an idea of what your character is like, so they will not be completely blind of your characters motifs and/or abilities during the roleplay. Some may argue that ruins the mystery in the RPG, however, the characters themselves do not know this, and it is solely the roleplayers own fault if they give their character omniscience atau omnipotence.
This not only helps in roleplay, but organization of your character's emotions and abilities as well. This can be lengthened into a full bio when complete, and makes knowing your character much lebih easier.
The reason I say forum RP atau RPG is because I do not find it completely necessary to use character sheets in a roleplay which will not take a time longer than a hari and with less than three people. Personally, they're not needed because if the roleplay will only be for an jam atau two, the character sheet won't be used for reference that much and only one other person will even see it, while a standard RPG will take a bulan at least and require at least two atau three people at a minimum to properly function. It's not hypocrisy, it's merely common sense.
I thank anda for your time and appreciate anda Membaca this. I hope I have encouraged anda to have character sheets be used lebih freely in your RPGs and not have to be a mandatory procedure, but something everyone does voluntarily. Say I am a fanatic, say I fuck them at night, I do not quite care because I am secure enough to know anda are insecure. Also, this would not be much of a character sheet artikel if there wasn't some sort of example. Here is one for my OC Gaiden Horn.
Name: Gaiden Horn Batticus
Sex: Male
D.O.B./Age: December 21st 1821 (190 Mobius Years, 19 Batrakan Years)
Species: Batrakan Vampire Bat
Personality: Stubborn, Reckless, Greedy, Idle and Manipulative
Special Powers: Manipulation Of Shadows & Void
Special Weapons: Golden Pistol, No Different Than A Regular Gun
Alignment: Evil
Backstory: Gaiden Horn Batticus is a Batrakan Bat who was born on December 29th, 1821 at the Batticus Chapel Of Vestus. He is the child of Lord Batticus III And Empress Batticus. He is known to Batrakans as the Fourth Ruler Of Thartan. After he was born, we was sent via pod to Earth, with a loyal servant of Lord Batticus III named Baku. He then lived in Detroit, Michigan with Baku, who treated him poorly. As he aged slowly, he found it very difficult to be in public most of the time, so he stayed at utama most of his childhood. He was abused almost every week. While inside the house, he read buku about the occult and black magic. Opening one he found at a perpustakaan in 1902, he found Zipher L, and he mentored Horn until the hari he died on May 21st, 2011. He continues to practice his dark arts and shadow manipulations each day. After he was 169, he sued his parents sejak Rius' Law, which dictated that one must never abandon a child, including emotional damages, he was awarded about 1,805,000 U.S. dollars worth in emas for this. His parents cannot deny he rightfully deserved that, but still hold something of a vendetta against him. Baku died on 1920, due to a massive hati, tengah-tengah attack, which is the reason Horn took Zipher's death hard. He carved the words on his first pistol "Baku II" After him, and had the gun emas glossed. As a "teenager" (169 years old) he encountered Zion, an Illinoisan high schooler who moved to Detroit, later meeting Lithro, and saving a boy called James from a gang of high school seniors, they made a gang who terrorized downtown Detroit in 1991. With Lithro and Horn both as leaders, there was a scheduled match to be held to deicide who would exactly be the true leader. Lithro had beaten him almost to the point of death, and was crowned the 'King Of Losers' from Horn, who left the group, and was replaced with Zeo immediately. After feeling alone for 22 years, he was visited sejak a black bat child, who later turned out to be Coro Succitab, his parallel from an alternate universe. With him was Jackson, an older looking man wearing a suit, the four, including Zipher, lived together for 8 years. Horn left to go live with his girlfriend at the time, Tibs, married her on Batraka and now currently live at her mansion. (This was a simple copy & paste from the SFC Wikia article, so some things in here might be 'no shit' material.)
