Thoughts Through the Ages
Now now, do not get excited. These are merely words, fleeting thoughts throughout my days on this mortal earth. They might range from the vivid imagination to the simple and mundane. If you wish to comment, that is your decision.
Have the Wells of Imagination Run Dry?
I do hate to be the person to complain, however it annoys me to no end to see simpletons with no imagination copying the ideas of a creative soul almost verbatim without any semblance of guilt or hesitation. I have met many extraordinary people on this site who have within them the capacity to create worlds of unique characters with absolutely no similarity to each other. One can easily understand if a role play specifically states that you can only use a certain type of character, then there will be more restrictions. However for a place with absolutely unlimited types of supernatural creatures, there is often seen a lack of originality. Most prefer the route of going with whatever type of creature is popular with the general media. Now you may look at my character and say that I am only being a hypocrite, but the character I portray is not in any means a normal vampire. (Yes, I despise Twilight with every fiber of my being.)

I am not in any way trying to point fingers or direct this to a certain person. All I wish is that you might take the time to research your character thoroughly and explore the numerous creatures and beings that are seldom used as characters. Many lists of demons, mythological, and creatures of superstition are available online for your perusal. Use the data you find to build a unique character that will not be forgotten.
All due respect intended. -Lord Katsuto

    Hail Hitler XD I'm with you on despising The Twilight thing and I also must agree, people have started to lose imagination these days. I Myself intentionally made a loner character, the Arch demon and the Arch Angel, nemesis' to fight to the death, and I even Made A Human character in a way, no one would ever think of. I also know some people who have made Creative new Species or have been totally unique while having a famous race. However, the worst things I see is that these days, People have strtd to tlk lyk dis. It is painful to read and makes my eyes bleed and some people even write with such foul grammer and spelling, I feel as a English Teacher in real life that I must go and teach them personally. I just hope that the small number of achievers in these dead seas will reign and multiply as they are the last hope for Creativity.

    Well I didn't think there were many others who would notice such a tragedy(the decline of creativy and true, pure imagination) I see it lately in books as well, which saddens me greatly. Twilight wouldv'e been a little better in my opinion if she would've been consistant and hadn't tortured the potential of the story. But I am again allowing myself to be side tracked.....forgive me, it is still daylight. Your character even if it is vampire by 'breed' is far from normal or sterotypical. Anyone who accuses you of hipocracy on this hasn't read enough of your character. and thank you for reminding me of a character I had forgotten to finish from a year ago.
