Let the Sun shine…

After seeing the film The Hair, I felt like I had to do something like that.

Probably I won’t be doing any dark or hippy things as there are little or no reason for such conduct. Anyways I honour the people who can live and die for their dreams and for things that matter. Even though dying for something that really doesn’t matter is mostly a waste, I can understand it clearly – I myself have nearly perished (at least suffered a little deal) in an attempt to be something I want to be… Nowadays it doesn’t truly matter, because there are few things a person who has played a larp 351 days near-nonstop couldn’t accomplish. That is what I believe now and wish I am right. If my reasoning proves wrong – I will still keep on trying to become the creature I want to be and no-one might stop me.

An inpiring film it was and it greatly helped me in my quest for The Dreams. It helped me remember, whys of my goal and that is all there are.

Thank you.

Looking at thingies upside down

Only a few days (25) until my one year military service (completely voluntary in Finland) is over.

Anyways: let’s talk about The Dreams. I would love to list some quotes from the characters I have generated this far, but that would be a killjoy-choice, wouldn’t it? Nope. I wouldn’t think so, but I would feel very sorry in case I wouldn’t include a character mentioned after all.

Then there would be some nice Finnish military system trivia I would like to share – just in case some fool would like to join this nice tradition most eighteen year old boys live through every year. I won’t, because I truly wish not use my spare time for the Company…

Anyways… I have just gone through my current state of mind and would like to continue with the subject of character creation techniques. I personally use a trick called ‘doubling’.

As I ‘double’, I first start with a simple concept or the main point of the character and then ‘double’ the ideas and thus redouble until I have enough material to satisfy… my intuition. I hope that condences, how I build characters up and hopefully will help someone else. Any other ideas, how one should build a character?

And a long time passed without much anything occurring.

This is the moment of triumph, or at least of the Me returning here. Soon — as this has been my ‘working blog’ for a long time — I will make things happen as I have before: there will be some writing of the subjects of roleplaying (of the live or just of the ‘pen and paper’-version) and (yeah, there are other things in my life too) of the  other interesting phenomena (mostly things that correspond to roleplaying).

I hope we all shall enjoy our time together even though I know the English of mine is hardly of the adequate level. Shame isn’t it? We shall see soon anyways.
