This week's poll is something that affects all us roleplayers! 8D
Everyone approaches a roleplay plot in a different way. There's not right or wrong way to go about it. The title of this topic is The Forest of the Tree, because today I am asking a really simple question about how you take on a roleplay!
When you join a roleplay: Are you only thinking about the plot for your character and what you can do with your character? OR do you think about the bigger picture, of how all the characters are going to affect the larger story?
Both are totally legit. After all, having a clear idea about your character's history and what you would like for them to accomplish through the roleplay is pretty much why most of us play. We want to see that character develop.
But being aware of all the characters present in a roleplay, and thinking about how everyone comes together for the bigger plot picture can be really rewarding when it falls in to place and you built a cohesive plot.
...and hey, who said you can't do both? >:]
