Well I have to keep him interesting to make up for the fact that he’s going to be 91 years old

You know, having looked, I just noticed that Simone and Westra would have been at Cornell at around the same time... He'd be doing his Bachelor's around the same time she was doing her Master's.

Honestly, I might just end up sticking to Vohoffsky (and possibly Goldman?) and then hyperdevelop him and his allies to provide a highly detailed background on the AFM and ensure that the new political force acts in a realistic and effective way. Perhaps the way to make my characters better is not to make them more centrist, but to make them more realistic, more 3D and generally put more effort in them.

Although considering the fact I spent the entirety of yesterday thinking about the Vohoffsky-Prendergast skirmish, I think I should probably clear my mind during the time where I do not have access to the RP more so that I'm not so racked up about it, and therefore be able to produce more clear-minded and less "angry" content.

Making more characters, however, might actually help me do this, since it allows me to immerse myself less, as I pretty much see my characters as though I was acting as them in a play or TV show, therefore allowing me to get less attached to them and make more 3D content.

Note; The other characters will be used as secondary characters, which, whilst given a name and some background, won't be fleshed out as much as Vohoffsky. This will most likely change later. And yes, I will still write their actions, albeit to a lesser degree.

Dont make this RP dictate biology to you. If you want a 100 year old character than make one, and you never have to make them die! Let’s establish a gerontocracy, people!
