Signature Etiquette

Post by Agasha Inoshishi » Thu Aug 12, 2021 2:29 am

Another newbie question:

What’s the etiquette on changing one’s signature during the course of play? For instance, Inoshishi is getting less emancipated by the day thanks to good old fashioned deer hospitality. If I change that descriptor, is that okay? Should it be stated somewhere?
Dragon * Chronicler * Too Thin * smells like mochi * fireworks
Starting day 5, Shichi charm with braided ribbon, yellows, greens, and a red
Starting day 6, LE has weirdly mottled hands, all colored in browns and yellows, as if her skin had changed color. (fading D10, gone d13)
Starting day 9, LA, has ink stains on fingers. (gone d11)
Starting D13, new bracelet
Honor is the ideal. Unremarkable Retainer. Average Samurai

Folks generally change them at will. If it's a big change, sometimes there's like "as of D7, missing an arm."
Crab * Purifier * Big Lady * Face Paint * Excellent Bloodlines * Unwealthy * Friendly
Honor is the Ideal * Glory: Unremarkable Retainer * Status: 30 * CP: 16

Commonly worn: Clothes!; wakizashi with crab tsuba; small knife; scroll satchel--tied closed with blue & brown kumihimo braid and dangling apricot pit netsuke; elaborately woven ribbon tying up her hair; a jade necklace carved into a Badger head, carved wooden charms of crab and moth looped around a wrist with lavender ribbon.

To add to Kuni Yasu's answer:

As I understand it, as long as the GM required information is still on display, there should be no problem with you changing the descriptors in your signature.
Obviously don't lie unless you have an arrangement with the GM (for example, a Shosuro actor disguised as someone else), but flavor as opposed to mechanical descriptors like that should be fine to change.

For example, I shouldn't remove "Kitsu hair" or "Missing fingers" from my profile because they relate to both GM requests (obvious physical features) and mechanics (such as my adversity or being easier to remember).
Lion Clan - HGS: 51/41/35 - Kitsu Red Hair, Missing fingers
"Mark my words, your descendants will remember you."

I'm sad that you feel that the good food has caused you to lose your freedom :D
