This is just a random question and this time it has no point! I love creating characters that were born as multiples. I was bored and collected a large list of names and decided 'I should create quintuplets!' And then I thought 'Wait, when would I use them?' So my question is... Would it ever be possible to use quintuplets in a role-play or is that just to many characters? |

| I see no problem with it if it's open-ended. If it's for a limited number of characters, depending on the maximum total number of characters, it might be too many, if you are to use all of them. |

| I rarely join role-plays with a limited amount of characters. |

| In that case, depending on how the roleplay is designed and its basic theme, it should be fine, so long as they don't all have rhyming names! |

| It'll be pretty hard to manage 4 personalities, and if your remedy for that is for a similar personality within all four, they'll just be boring and feel like one person. |

| ... 5 personalities. But I have done that before with even more characters. |

| It can feel like one person if they're all together, but if they all get seperated... Well, that can get interesting, seeing as then it would be like 5 of the same person in different places. |

| Guess I just suck at multitasking, then. The concept is nice for quintuplets, makes path for new bios and stoof. |

| Oh, and if they got seperated as kids, it can get awkward when they meet eachother for the first time. |

In one of my larger roleplays I had around ten characters, each with their own personality. Of course, one was lost and two others were killed but... Other than that I controlled them easily. There is no guarantee that, if separated, they would know they are quints as all identical quints are rare. You may not even be able to match their birthdays, as they could be born far apart. I was studying quints... |

| Yeah, I also get an urge to roleplay something with some newly learned knowledge after coming back from school. |

| I learn nothing in school so I tend to teach myself. I just like researching stuff on my own. |

| I also enjoy researching stuff on my own. That's why I don't learn that much in school... I already know what they're going to teach me. |

| I oddly learn more when I'm under the pressure to actually learn, such as like when everyone else in the class is taking notes, I feel obliged to write at least 100 paragraphs just to look like I'm learning. And it works. |

| I am best at learning on my own without a teacher talking to me. I hate taking notes buy when school start-up again I shall be forced to. |

| Mm. I feel like having to wake up early and getting my butt to school on time really affects my concentration during the earlier classes, which might be the reasons I'm tarded during the first period. |

| ... How did quintuplets lead to a discussion of school and early mornings? |

| We don't, simple as that. But hey, who are we kidding? We don't like studying, else we'd be on bbc.co.uk or something right now! |
