Just a Thought Dump

I love getting wrapped up into a character I'm making, being so interested and wanting to build a world for them, creating lore, making family trees and such. But I always end up getting bored with the character, then moving to something else, leaving something I've spent God knows how long in the reject pile.

I've got about a thousand discarded characters, and my ADHD brain can't handle more than one at a time. I hope eventually I'll learn to slowly cultivate my ideas and watch them grow, instead of dumping copious amounts of fertilizer on them and not expecting them to wither.

It's my own flaw, and it's very annoying, but I think maybe D&D will help with continuously adding onto the story and having more than one biased opinion on how the events should take place. I am very nervous for my first campaign, since I don't know these people very well and already missed the first meeting due to family complications. It is no understatement that I expect myself to get too nervous and be a general nuisance or be annoying and them not want to do this with me anymore.

We will see what happens, I suppose. I hope it goes well! I'm both excited and dreading it.

 

Thank you so much! That aspect is something I didn't think of at all. I'll take your advice!
