The In-Character Critique Meme



Have you ever just wanted to tell someone flat-out what you think of them as a person? Does your roommate have this one quirk that drives you up the wall, like dripping apathy all over the kitchen sink? Sometimes all it takes to be the best person you can be is a dose of self-awareness, sometimes what it takes instead is a cluebat to the head... and sometimes they just have a stupid name you can never quite spell right.

For all this and more, have I got the meme for you!

THE LOWDOWN
i. Post a header with your character's name.
ii. Comment in-character to other people's headers. With what? Depends on your CR! Maybe they're a good person and really should keep on keeping on, maybe literally everyone can see they need to suck it up and confess already, maybe they'll change their wicked ways if just one extra person casts aspersions on their pompadour. Bring in examples if you want, as with any helpful critique. Be as creative as you like! FOURTH-WALLERS you are totally welcome to jump in here too!
iii. Other characters will comment to yours, no doubt overflowing with well-meaning advice on how to be the best person they can be. Your character is free to respond. Excuse you, maybe despair is still in fashion??
iv. A probably unnecessary reminder, but just remember, this is not a place for OOC crit! There are other, more appropriate channels for that.
v. Here are quick links to the Dreamwidth inbox and recent posted comments page if you want them.

Anyway. One day, fighting comes to a head, and all three kingdoms send everyone they've got down to the battlefield. We're talking knights, we're talking archers, we're talking every soldier in every battalion. And for every knight, of course, there's gonna be a squire.

The first kingdom has tons of squires. The second one, not so much. And the third kingdom, well, they're real small and underfunded, so all they've got is this one elderly knight and one squire to make sure he don't keel over in the middle of battle or nothing.
