Good post on the topic. Obviously, something I find relevant to my RP. I think one aspect to playing a (superficially) unlikable character but still having interactions is to make sure that no matter what – it’s fun for others to watch. Be it IC or OOCly, be it fun to watch the poor behaviour and interactions or just the aftermath, make sure there’s a reason for others to put up with the antisocial bastardry.

Works for me.

More than anything else, bastards are subject to the Rule of Cool. Be likeable, be stylish, be fun to be around, and you get literally get away with murder.

You know; this stands to reason. I like to think I’ve been taking the right approach with Norvallen, who is a pretty much a consummate Bastard as our dear Bricu puts it. I look forward to seeing where it goes.

Incidentally, Bricu (in-character), an equal bastard, thinks she’s a sinister snoot, and she thinks he’s a marble-mouthed snot (not like Jolstraer, who’s a marble-mouth that could probably use some antihistamine). Both of them are both massively wrong yet completely dead-on.

I am happy to have rolled a bastard. I have a fine legacy to live up to.
