All I got is a red guitar, three chords and the truth

The Blues!

One of the simplest forms of music there is!

In its most simple form, it has five notes and three chords.

That's it! Five! And three..

But.. with those 5 notes you can make a guitar cry with emotion
With those 3 chords, you can build songs that touch heaven and moves the earth

That's why I love the blues.. it's so simple and elegant.. but with it you can express so much.

You can add more notes.. more chords, but it all comes back to the same, simple foundation.

It's not about fast guitar solos at all costs, or exotic harmonies. It's about making those steel strings sing and cry. Pull that string... bend it.. feel it!

Now.. apply that to roleplaying. The more I game, the more I fall back to making simpler characters, with a few basic themes. Nothing to complex, nothing fancy. Just a man, some basic words and sentences that capture the spirit of him

Then I make him cry.. I make him sing! I push him.. pull him.. That's what I want.. Emotion.. Passion.. rising from those simple foundations. Don't give me 3 pages of background and information, give me three chords of passion! Don't give me that one long story, give me one long, crying note of life.

THATS when roleplaying gets fun
