When you create an out-of-the-norm character which is original and everyone decides to ignore them. For example, I had this really obnoxious know-it-all male that had the power of Knowledge which was really fun to roleplay because he abused coffee and caffeine to alternately slow or speed up his brain 'speed' and everyone thought he was a wack - which he was - and decided he was the one to pass out on since he was not perfect in character.
I was really annoyed. Oh well, I'll have to re-use him at some point.
I remember him! He was so interesting. If I remember correctly, that was the only RP where I played someone with below-average intelligence (which is a stretch from my usual characters). That made interacting with him very difficult, I mean, the know-it-all and the know-nothing. I wish that hadn't died.

Well said. It's not perfection, it's the generic thing. Hmm. It might be fun to play a character who thinks they are perfect (and has many of those traits), but is actually a horrible, arrogant human-being.
Any interest on the, er, experimental high-quality two-three liner RP?
@Aqua: I think it's a good idea, but I don't think anyone in this club would be interested, 'cause we're all control-freak writers here.I've considered offering a writing store, where someone gives me the characters and a general plotline for a short story, and I write down their simplistic story as a higher-quality piece. I might actually be interested in buying from a store like that.

Fiasco, I would loooove to do a powers RP with James, but I don't know if I have the time at present. Dangnabit.
