Character descriptions have always been fun for me; they're a useful way to pick out the more . . . . unique and disturbed types, or those with no imagination. Sometimes, too, non-RPers who have the mod throw something funny into the description since they're not using it for anything else, and I can have a good laugh. My own descriptions usually go on about two paragraphs; one for physical description, another for general mood and personality - it might not *sound* necessary, but things like tones and body language do not translate as well on text as you think unless you're willing to repeat yourself over and over or spend paragraphs on every emote.

Alas, I still haven't gotten around to redownloading an RP mod. I need to get to that sometime.
