thesarus descriptions

[florek]

so i'm sure during the existence of HL2RP, people came up with some extremely inordinate ways of describing their character.

from using terms not even the most noble of english professors at renowned universities have ever heard of to inconceivable monstrosities

not sure if we made a thread like this before, but post your memories here

i'll start with the only thing I still have and its from willard lol

avant garde descriptions go hard when theyre done right, but look fkn ridiculous when done wrong

“the embodiment of xyz” or smth comes to mind like bro I can’t describe you as the dude that looks like the embodiment of for example a sad man

civil protection officers really be referring to their armour as a "raiment" like they gotta head down to Windhelm to pick up a new Steel Greatsword

I have a screenshot I stole of one of those really edgy 1940s roleplay servers of an SS commander who would probably be driven over the edge that I didn't use whatever confusing German translation actually exists for his rank on a Church podium with an actual honest to god SCREENS WORTH OF TEXT because NS apparently didn't have any restrictions on showing your description

I sadly cannot find it. Does someone else have it?

highly detailed rebel physdescs on bluesuits waiting in line at the ration kiosk

this was the case for me at least on one occassion, a CP player quietly DM'd me about it and I scampered back underground in shame.

gonna be completely truthful
i have no idea what mesomorphic means
it's 1 google search away to find out, but i don't feel like doing that
so i'll live in ignorance for now.

bring back descriptions made up of short 1 word descriptors separated by |'s

i also respect descriptions detailing someone's backstory, very cool!
30 minutes NLR wtf were they smoking in LP

physical descriptions were the best about gmod rp. Tall | Young | Backstyory feature needs to make a comeback though

 

[mårten]

where's his sombrero

also i realized this was for hl2rp screenshots but i have none so thats why i posted ww3rp screenshots

 

[Ond]

Mine reduced as time went by because overly descriptive shit is boring and its funnier coming up with something else

My last one was literally something like “This dude looks like what a cup of black coffee and a cigarette in the morning feels like”

cause people stopped using them here around 2019/2020 so the only people that used them were new players that came from other communities (before eventually adopting the new standard which was "A x'y" person wearing z") or people that were around long enough to have seen them in use to have them ironically when actually minging
