Using DM channel to explain weird character actions.

Unread post by Hoihe »

Pretty much what it says on the tin, should i do it or not, because it floods the DMs?

I ask this, because some of my characters might act a bit... weirdly, and without knowing what they intend to do the entire group might be confused(Intentional, but not regarding the DM).. Emotes might not be sufficient, so i thougth of doing this. These actions would make sense when the DM reads the character Bio/Journal, but then... It's better to have the knowledge on hand than to try and memorise hundreds of characters.

Such a character is Calinde, she's weird.

A character belongs only to their player, and only them. And only the player may decide what happens.

It probably depends on the DM.
It might be bad.. sometimes they get super busy in events, and it get's hard to keep track of things with party chat and tells coming in.
