I'm compiling information about player and character interests to better plan out some events and STs and I'd really love your help!

If you would, please respond to this thread with a simple list of things that interest you as a player and/or what would draw your PC in, as the lists can be different. Please keep it positive!

-----

Example:

As a player, I like:
- adventures that present a moral dilemma
- chances to work with others towards a common goal

As a character, I like:
- monetary rewards
- discovering secrets and solving puzzles

Thanks!

As a player, I like:
- "street rat" commoner hard life type themes
- events where participants help explain or define theme (religion, laws, etc.)
- realistic evil, e.g. they have a cause that can be seen as "right", but it's against the commonly accepted definition of "right". I guess the "moral dilemma" aspect could fit in here too.

As a character, I like:
- money, or goods that can easily be converted to money
- nonmagical conflict

Will probably add more later, but this is a start for me.

As a player, I like:
- Moral dilemmas!
- Puzzle-solving and STs that involve non-combatant roles
- Dark horror and drama

As a character, I'll find an excuse to participate if I'm OOCly interested, so my likings as a player matter a lot more!

As a player, I like:
- character building exercises (I suppose moral dilemmas are in here, but pretty much anything that presents me with non-trivial choices)
- stirring up trouble and seeing how long or far I can go before someone kills me for it (ie, making enemies)
- dark horror and drama


As a character, I like:
- respect and recognition for my achievements
- improving my phome
