All she had were her parents and the family owl that she used to talk to a lot. After that accident her friends turned away from her, especially when she caught some older bullies' attention.
At least they were her friend before her first magical accident where she turned a bush into stone during a hide and seek game. So Opeila grew up without any siblings but managed to make friends in primary school. This would have been impossible with Opeila being what she was, not able to control her powers. Her squib half-sister Maybell was sent to a foster home because Opeila's father didn't want her to get in touch with magic. Opeila Seilun was born on the 12th March 2008 in the english city Cambridge, as the first daughter of a muggle father working as a chef and the second daughter of a witch. I will not kill anyone for asking me in a friendly tone of course on the contrary, I am always willing to reassure. I trust that they either know that I am not writing my character after my OOC feelings, or that they come and ask me, if they are unsure. Opeila is how she is, and when I write as her, there is simply no space for worrying how my roleplay partner could feel about it. I can say very openly, that I know that I get inconsiderate while roleplaying. While I am a rather calm and friendly person OOC (at least that's what I was told XP), please don't expect the same while roleplaying. You can talk to me about it, make me aware, by all means, we can talk about it OOC, but that won't change my IC behaviour. If you put a lot of yourself into your character and because of that take things personal, I have to say that is a you-problem. I am not interested in another discussion about drama like this, which in my opinion belongs into kindergarden and not into a conversation between adults. If you don't want to interact with my character in an event, it is your responsibility to act like an adult and either ignore my character or leave the event yourself, just like I will do the same, if I have a problem. Opeila is a good friend when you get on her good side, but can also be a hurtful enemy.ĭo not make it my responsibility, if our characters meet in an event or groupthread, as I will not miss out on those if I want to join and do not give me a hard time or attack me, if interactions and opinions don't turn out the way you hoped. If you know that you are a sensitive person OOC, please be aware that you are taking the risk of a conflict, when you interact with her. If she dislikes your character, she will say it into their face, amongst some more or less (likely less) nice thoughts. I am warning you right away here, that Opeila is quite direct. You carry the same IC consequences for IC actions, that everyone- anyone- else would. They develope in a certain direction, depending on your character's actions and no matter where we stand OOC, it does not matter IC. And it is only you, who has control over Opeila's opinions about your character. But not only I have control over those, everyone who interacts with her, plays with those factors. Opeila acts like it makes sense for her and the only thing I have actual control over, are environmental factors. From that point, every interaction is an experiment, that everyone is to some extend responsible for. I created Opeila with all her qualities and flaws, knowing what I did there. In the past someone got OOC upset over some of those opinions, which were negative about their character, and I don't want that to happen again. Opeila has some very strong opinions, that I distance myself from. What I am telling you here is something I consider a very basic rule for roleplaying and general behavior I am expecting of my roleplay partners in case of an unplanned course of interaction IC.įirst off, it is very important to me to make clear, that I am not Opeila. This is mainly for people, who are either new to roleplaying, rather unexperienced or unsure.
