      Whenever I get firstimpressions for running an event so like… someone is talking about some eulogy I gave, I don’t do a firstimpression because I think my legit firstimpression as Aureth would be “Who?”

      Yeah I’ve sometimes gotten FI’s when Aleksei does a duel or whatnot, and I think they’re legit! You get a first impression of someone who’s performing a thing for you. I just can’t respond to them yet because my PC hasn’t met theirs.

        One of my memorable FIs said my PC should smile more, and then the person reached out a day or two later to apologize saying they were asking for it to be removed, and then a month or two later they were banned for toxic and manipulative behavior. 🤗

                          A dude once put gross stuff abt a couple of female inquisitors and their sexuality in FIs of female inquisitors that were interrogating him IC about a thing. Staff removed it promptly upon +request and he apologized OOC for going too far, but it left such a sour taste in my brain that I still remember it enough that I don’t want to rp with the player. That gross-ass sexist shit was still the first place dude went, yknow?

                          let it be a challenge to you

                            @sao First of all, gross.

                            Second, I think a lot of people use FIs to kinda test the waters of possible romance, or give a hint (sometimes more than a hint) that they’d be interested.

                            as previously stated, good day.

                              @farfalla I use them quite literally and if I don’t have an actual first impression I won’t leave one.

                                I dunno anything about this system, as my Arx OC was just put in for approval today, but wouldn’t something along the lines of:

                                Damn!

                                Be appropriate first impression if that was the characters first impression of another?

                                Worded more appropriately and thematically maybe?

                                Asking for reals, since I have no idea what sort of first impressions are… wanted?

                                  @Mourne If you go to a character’s page, you can look at the bottom for public FIs, to get examples. Eleanor.

                                  Edit: I forgot Eleanor’s were broken so there’s only a couple. Try Aleksei.

                                    If I got that FI when my character was doing something notably cool or impressive, like one of my characters is a fancy duelist type so maybe the other PC was watching the duel, or my other character was doing a performance or something, I’d find an FI of “Damn!” to be totally apt. Or, to be honest, even if my socialite character just arrived at a fancy party in a super impressive gown or something like that, being her socialite self. It’s succinct, but gets the point across!

                                    You can actually look at examples on people’s character pages, too. Both sides have to set an FI as public for it to show up there, but – oh I see @farfalla has said this while I’ve been typing! Aleksei is another one in that I know a lot of mine are set public there so you can see them.

                                      @Roz lol I had just edited to add Aleksei instead.

                                        Funny enough, I will generally get too wrapped up into the scene and the story and forget about FI’s. I’m pretty sure this is what makes me bad at xp harvesting.
