Normally, I wouldn't ask this...

I, personally, think it's bad form to pull someone into your storyline without their consent. Especially when that person's role reflects upon them negatively. What do YOU think, Virtue?
Well, it depends. The decent, honorable, correct thing is to ask for their consent.

But if you don't really want to be friends with them, want to start some internets drama, and be kind of a jerk, you don't have to.

Either way, if the story's told well, it'll be good. It's just that with the latter case, there'll be a humorous gossip-y side story too.

But in the interest of harmony, I'd recommend not doing that.

Take a look at those as ask yourself. "Would someone who hates RP put that much time and effort into virtueverse?"

The short answer is: No.

I don't hate RP in the slightest. In fact, I treat the art with utmost respect. I just won't bite my tongue when it comes to the addressin' folks. I don't do it in the real world so I ain't gonna start here. I'm not always nice, but I'm 100% honest.
Oooooh, you are the Empire of Atlantis. I have seen you guys around and I have lurked some of your RP.

I stand corrected sir.

Very impressive stuff, love it. I suddenly have RP-envy.

Damnit JJ, don't kill the mood! :P

By default if using anyone's character for anything at the very, very least run it by the first. Most of the time people will be ok with it but be prepared to have either a Plan B or tweak some things....


Now! This is it! Now is the time to choose! Die and be free of pain or live and fight your sorrow! Now is the time to shape your stories! Your fate is in your hands!
