I've Been Tagged!

Meme: Name five fictional characters you'd have sex with, then tag five people who have to do it, too. Be sure to mention who tagged you when posting it, though.

I've been tagged by [livejournal.com profile] owlkeeper, who got it from [livejournal.com profile] nyghtshayde, who picked it up from [livejournal.com profile] darkwizard_va, who got it from Gods know who else.

My five fictional characters, hmm ...

Five characters )

There are loads of other fictional characters I'd love to seduce - FBI Special Agent Scully from The X-Files; Jade from Home and Away; Jakita Wagner from Planetary; K'Ehleyr from ST:TNG; T'Pol from Enterprise; Sara Sidle from CSI: Crime Scene Investigation; Jenny Sparks from The Authority; FBI Special Agent Samantha Spade from Without A Trace; Detective Eames from Law & Order: Criminal Intent; Catwoman; Harmony Angel from Captain Scarlet; Durham Red the Strontium Bitch; Jadzia Dax and Ezri Dax from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine; Detective Benson from Law & Order: Special Victims Unit; ADA Carmichael from Law & Order and Seven of Nine from Star Trek: Voyager spring to mind, to name but a few - but I'll stick with the five listed above.

So here are my five tags:

WoD: Virtues and Vices

Characters in the World of Darkness are governed by a Virtue and a Vice. Upholding the Virtues and giving in to Vices permit characters to gain Willpower, as their altruism, or their indulgence, affirms their values.

But what if there was an element of risk involved?

What if, each time a character's Virtue is tested, there is a chance that that Virtue might be misplaced; or a disaster occurs as a result of the character indulging their Vice at precisely the wrong time?

What if a character is attempting an action involving a die roll which could fulfil a Virtue or Vice ... and they throw a 1 on the Chance Die?

Here are a few examples that came to mind where a character could potentially lose Willpower through the refutation of their Virtues, or through being immediately forced to face the direct consequences of their Vices.
