Overly Dramatic

(Major Unfavorable Trait)

Life, to a character with this trait, is one great continuing performance. Nothing is simple with them, everything is blown out of proportion like an opera, having grand and important fluctuations. Their life is one of comedy, tragedy, angst, romance and heroisim. They become bored if left to do paperwork or housework, they must be the center of attention for they are the star of the show that is life.

The smallest injury is life threatening in their minds, a lucky break is to be cheered, a new job to celebrated, a death is a thing to mourn for days in absolute negative moping (until something shiny catches their eye).

Their relationships are all soap operas, filled with highs and lows and very few places in the middle. What is important to them is the NOW, those who are offstage and out of sight are out of mind and importance. They are drama queens, and everyone should know it.

This takes a special kind of player to play, so if you don't feel up to it, then don't take it as part of your character.
