Too many characters?
8 years ago
Hey so this is kind of a random thought that came to my mind. But I wonder if I have too many characters?
Theres different ways I have been looking at this. first off there is of course the money of constantly buying characters, its stupid in our modern society for me to waste my money on imaginary characters. I should be saving it up and doing something smart with my money like buying food or supporting myself....
But on the flipside I love all my characters. They are all different little facets of me and different ways to interpret the world. Alex is the easy going college cat that wants to chase his dreams, Brock is the big jock that wants the attention of his friends and to always go out and experiment, Hildir is my appreciation for my nordic scandinavian heritage, Elizabeth is that side that always wants to tell rules to fuck off and ignore societies standards. Shandras that idea of prim, proper, the fascination of the upper class and domination in intimate ways, and sam is sort of the classic geek I am but with the funny twist of being a liquid shifter, something unique and freaky he has to live with and treats like something that makes him 'weird' unless he's with friends and than he can embrace that part of him. And my gator girl ((Jess? Beckie? I need to find a name for her)) She's sort of the goofy, doofy just whizzing through life and having fun along the way type gal.
All my characters are a different facet of me and what I wish I could do or be and dream of being.
Is it bad to solidify these ideas in my imagination as characters? should I shrink it down to one or two people?
Or am I rambling way too much and just need to shut the fuck up and enjoy myself?

However, like Yulci said, I'd avoid expanding them in number, I'd would atually expand and explore them further and deeper. You may get to know something new about them, and yourself.
