i thought that the most powerful power move i could make in my rp group (in terms of character creation) would be making a 40-year-old bi guy who looks and acts his age (and also acts as the group's dad figure)... but i was wrong.

another player managed to one-up me by adjusting his character's age JUST so that the romantic tension between our characters would be less weird. this retroactively changed 1/3 to 1/2 of the story up until then in significant ways.
