I definitely won't play as...

I won't play as an angst teen, because that would be a self-insert.

This thread makes me wonder if it could be fun/interesting/a good learning experience to make a RP where you're specifically told to try to make a character that's slightly out of your comfort zone o: Very specifically stated that nobody is there to offend anybody, we just want to try new things and become better at portraying more characters.

Would that work or would that be chaotic?

That might be interesting! I'd expect some chaos, just by the nature of the idea of everyone trying out something new, but hopefully it'd be a good kind of chaos?

That said, I'm not sure I'd be super interested in participating in something like that; two of the three types of characters I definitely won't play as are on the list because I literally have 0 interest in them (kids and human-hybrid characters), so even in the context of a "Try something new!" thread, I just don't think I'd have the motivation to get into them.

A corpse. Doesn't seem much fun to me. Other than that, I like to think I'm pretty open on what I'm willing to play. I like to think I'd actually be open to try to play anything.
