Another Child Character?

[Leeroy Atherton]

Exactly what it says on the tin.

So, considering the success of young Adelheid's plot line on IO, would anyone like to see a second plot line that also revolved around a child in WWII? Maybe not an orphan like Adelheid, but a child nonetheless. And do any of you have any suggestions for nationality, personality, gender, etc.?

I was one of the ones who voted yes, and I guess I'll provide some extra input. I would like to see you try a male character, since all of your characters are female, it would be interesting to see you try something else. As far as other details, I think that they only have to work for the child to get caught up in problems to become a useful character plotline on the site.

I think you should have another orphan character based on Short Round from Indy Jones and the Temple of Doom.

And then he/she'll be some other character's sidekick and they would go on exciting adventures.

EDIT: Going with what Owen said, a boy would be best for my suggestion so it's a little less weird for a boy to want to hang out with a soldier then a girl.

It would be great if you made another child, it would add to diversity! I think you should, like the others said, make a male character so that you would not be confused or worried about giving him Adelheid’s features (as opposed to playing two girls of around the same age at once). I also believe it would be interesting if he were vastly different from Adelheid, if he were for instance more misbehaving and liked to not listen to what his parents told him (if he indeed has parents); but personally, I wouldn’t make him an orphan. Because you already have an orphan – he could either be slightly disrespectful towards his parents or having been adopted by foster parents, perhaps his biological ones met ‘problems’ with the Nazi regime. And we all know what that means!

And seeing how you already have English, French and German characters, I would go for something else, such as Russian or Polish or Hungarian. Eastern European. It would be interesting.

I voted yes, although I don't have too many ideas on what kind of a character it could be. I agree with the previous posters on making the new character a boy to avoid making a character too similar to Adelheid.

You just have to find a good way for the kid to get into some serious trouble. Make him a Jew? ;D

[Stephen Colly]

I voted yes, like others have said it would bring diversity to the site....

[Edward"Butcher"McMillan]

I only voted no because I am not as big on neutral RP here as I am combat oriented RP...unless you make a Hitler youth child...but I know you won't do such a thing.

What? I like combat here

Agreed.

Why not a soldier? Eh? Come to the dark side. We'll give you a free rifle!

[Victoire Beaudoin]

Well, just because you birds are not very neutral-oriented does not mean you have to spoil the fun for the rest of us!

But yes, Addie going dark side is without a question something I am dying to see.

[Leeroy Atherton]

Thanks for the feedback so far, guys. It's been really helpful with the creative process so far.

Edward"Butcher"McMillan: There's more than one way to eat a steak, and more than one way to play a kid. I'm sure a kid sneaking into the army underage, if they look older than they already are, might be an idea.

[∬: Erik Schneider]

That would be an interesting idea. I've been leaning toward (if Ryan ever gets eaten by zombies) something near those lines, but my character probably wouldn't be underage.

So yeah, maybe a 16-17 year old sneaking into the army?

[Leeroy Atherton]

Possibly, Erik.

[Deleted]

Strange, Erik. That was an idea I was tossing around for my new character.

But it would be cool to have someone younger, a teenager, mayhaps...
