Okay, so welcome to my newest blog. I'm going to be posting here all the new stories I write under the pseud of 'AbbadonsDaughter'.The pseud has been created in order to distinguish between my usual writings and stuff I intend to write featuring characters who might be considered 'evil'. I will also probably post here about my experiences, thoughts and feelings on the subject of playing someone of this ilk.
'Good' and 'Evil' are very subjective concepts. Many people would say my 'real' persona is a Good Woman. They don't hear the darker thoughts that rattle around my head. If I were to act on those thoughts I would not be 'Good', by my own standards. Is the thought as terrible as the deed? Will writing for and roleplaying the darkness exorcise it, or encourage it?
Those who are familiar with me in 'real' life will be aware I often play morally dubious characters. I have a penchant for it. I like Dark Elves, Vampires and Tortured Souls.
I am presently attempting to develop a version of Professor Moriarty for play. He's a very difficult creature for me to get into, primarily because of his psychopathy. Playing someone with no feelings toward any other human being, no remorse nd no social conscience is a huge challenge. I look forward to all that I will learn with the character.
