Re: OOC Discussion
What are everyone's thoughts on romance in RPG's? It's something that's only just now come up and I don't have much opinion on it myself. I threw together a few questions for players to answer that can hopefully give me a better idea:
1) Generally speaking, would you be interested to have elements of romance in the plot of Marvel Mania?
2) If yes to the above, are you interested to have the possibility of romance between player characters?
3) If yes to the above, how would you prefer to establish relationships between player characters? (Decide it beforehand through OOC discussion? Figure it out through play as we go? Use whatever's on the character sheets? Something else?)
4) If the character sheet you are using has references to past/current relationships, do you consider them "canon" to your version of the character? If so, which ones?
5) If you have ever played a character with romance-themed milestones, did you use them or swap them out for different ones?
You can PM me your answers to these questions if you prefer.
As a more general PSA, I want to let everyone know that no one is 100% beholden to what's on their character sheet biography. With characters like these that have evolved over decades of different continuities, it's OK if your idea of the character is different. As long as you stay true to the origin and general essence of the character, there's room to be flexible.
