Just a curious thought I wanted to ask that came to me this morning, but do any of you who've clicked open this thread try to expand characters to be deeper than maybe a plot calls for?
By that, I mean do you build up little things about them you know will never come up to make them more fleshed out and real seeming, like your medieval knight's would-be favorite soda, or the kind of fruit your character could never turn down? Maybe even their sense of fashion or views on bullying, I don't know. There are just so many ways it could be done, but does anyone actually do that?
Personally I do a lot of that. Most, if not all of my characters are very deeply fleshed out beyond what will ever really need to come up in a roleplay. It just helps me out a lot to really feel like I know them, even if it's some silly and irrelevant stuff. So how about you? Is this important to you, silly to you, or something you view with indifference? ^^
