Inception
Commentary by Satyr

I hadn't had a plan for Ben at the start. I'd thrown him into a roleplay for Existentially Odd with only a single thought about him: Obsessive. He was obsessed about becoming a vampire. All the backstory, issues and motives came later (though fairly quickly). There's even an OOC comment I'd written in his first post:

[ooc] Throwing in what could be a disposable charrie or a new one, depending on how this one goes, testing the waters [/ooc]

Ben has become my most complex and oft-used character. I love him the most, he is my favourite creation. I think the secret of his success is due to his determination. It was a character facet for a strong-minded character, and everything else just fell into place.
