I don't know about forceful characters and you having to have one. However...
Rebooting me into a place with uh... posting people would get more posts from me.
I know, Asmo, I really do. These roleplays are supposed to move at a languid pace and be more full of holes and inconsistencies than Diana's honeymoon stories. I'm still trying to get over my mental block as a roleplayer about just commandeering whatever characters I need and maneuvering them to my will. I'm working on it, though, I promise. Expect me to be fully hijack and godmod capable within the year. I promise.
