This is half a question, and kinda of a suggestion as well, but hear me out.
Within a person, any person, qualities about them can and will change over time. They get taller, change their hair color, so on. In VA, its even more diverse, they learn a new spell, they get more powerful, they suffer some kind of loss or event that changes their personality.
So my question is, where do you stand on issues like that?
As of yet, character growth, even deterioration other then death, is non-existent. As is, a character could lose an arm, and with the threads locked nothing could be done about it for some time. I know that's an outlandish example, but you get what I'm saying right? Even subtle things, like hair color glasses new spells the like, those things have no real room, and most importantly of all these things can't be done on the fly as they might in real life.
My REAL question, what can be done to improve character growth that fits into your preferences?

Well, we don't really want to let any "growth" be in the magic department because then people would just keep adding new things on without end, and then things would just get out of control on a personal level most likely between the admins and members.
I personally don't mind the younger characters becoming taller or anything like that. Things such as hair color and whatnot, I believe that it should be stated in the profile that they tend to change their hair from time to time, etc. Oh, and just a quick note on death, when characters die, it would be nice to notify the admins that way we can better keep track when people decide to make new characters. But accessories and all that are pretty much to the oimagination. I'm sure you;ve noticed that I tend to go on about my character's slothing when they first appear in a thread. XP Does that answer your question?
