Mistys Story

I am going to use an example of a roleplay that went well, and even had great interaction.  All the way through, amazingly it was ruined when I said ooc, look at your banks, of the river, I left you  a present, in round about ways.


Now I will describe the event, and leave names and lands out of the explanation, as it would not be fair to pin it on a land, when it was ruined by just one person.

We were flagged by a group, and  in retalliation, the leader of my group, decided we should hang a flag back.
I was choosen to represent us, on the endeavour.
 Now I am not the best in navaagating new lands, as I view the land, in view, not by maps. I dont search crowds of people, or lack there of for my roleplay.

I actual search someone to spend time with. Learning and sharing time with them.


Now what makes this story an odd one, knowing I was going to be going to a land of Mercs, I choose to wear a pretty blue dress, and a viel that certainly placed me in an odd sight.

 Being the way I roleplay, I went as far as hiding my group tags, as second life gor, as it is, people see names, and such, and use this to their advantadge.
I choose a tag befitting the image I beset my lovely character on,  hide aflappropiately to do my deed.

Now in character, I met a person, and showed a little skill of my roleplay, and knowledge beset upon the said character. For those confused, I played the part of my character as close to its actual orgins I could.


The funny thing, is after I leav, I am nice enough to tell this person of my bastardly deed, and share with her the experience is a great one, and I look forward to another  chance to roleplay with her. Mind you, I had to sit through a battle, and much more,  just to end the roleplay we had set on.


At this point, everything till I tell her of the deed is great. and she me.
matter fact we "had" became friends, during the course of the roleplay.  Which saddens me, afterwards, upon telling her, of my deed, in ooc, I listened to how, I was unable to roleplay, she had felt sorry for me, for appearing lost, and above all, she had trusted me. let alone the flagging roleplay was not a true roleplay, and that I was laughed at by her people, in the group.
As well as muted when asked whether or not she had fun during the roleplay, and reminded the roleplay was decent, and anytime she could have seen I was not the character she thought I was,. Is this my fault?

 I was prepared to actually play the captured victim part. Remember i wore a viel that concealed my eyes, not my face, as gorean woman are supposed to,

Why does one feel roleplay is broken, due to trust? At anytime, did I actually steal anything from her? Did I lessen my character, by not providing her a way to see i was not a true freewoman?  It was her roleplay as well as mine, she could have quizzed me more on my talents, let alone fact, I wore a blue dress, I fittingly was a scribe. Of a city I actually dont belong, a fast  courier, to check on my background would have provided such details. As far as this goes,  I earlier stated I was a freewoman, traveling without escort, to a land of mercs, for sake of writing about their land?
What freewoman, would ever want to go to a rustic land, and alone at that.

In fact, this person was bitter, due to be asked to join the land, I had refused. ( A scribe joining mercs, that in its self would be a ridiculous roleplay I may have enjoyed.)  Even more bitter, when she learned, I had a mission, one that was to drop the said flag, upon the lands she lives.

Sadly, I am the one laughed at, banned and scoffed, by her people, and told, since we are a small land, and her is a large group, the act of flagging, in my manner, was not a true flagging. Her land being that much larger,  rich in many wanting to come and roleplay. In that. my land, could continue playing with small lands .

If this is roleplaying at its finest, I shall stick to lands that appreciate abilities to roleplay, instead of pew pew. as I so sadly witnessed, was a shame, seems roleplay could have developed, and been enjoyed, Instead it was killed, by another ego.

Last thought of the day, remember, lands thrive and are successful with interactions,  killing interactions, kills everything.
In the end who shall survive.?
I have no answer to that, but her thanking me for wasting her time, well my only answer is " Ditto", now where shall i place my other flag?"
