History and real life. Things that happen every day. To some extent books by Ian M. Banks. Oh, and realist literature of nineteenth century.

- Music from 1200 to 1990;
- Baroque art;
- Documentaries and films about baroque and the Victorian era;
- Probably some other movies as well, but I can't remember which exactly;
- The Christmas truce in 1915. It is not a movie, it's a real event. It influenced on how I treat my inRP enemies;
- Some history stuff;
- "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", written by Douglas Adams;
- "Le Pere Goriot", written by Honore de Balzac (mostly influenced my Gallic characters).

Laying in bed trying to sleep

One time I did a copy/paste from a show, only changing some names around, but those characters are gone now

Ancient Romans rules and sayings that are quite actual:

• Beware what you say, when, and to whom.
  
• I think therefore I am.
  
• As long as you are successful, you will have many friends.
  
• Fortune favours the brave.
  
• Bread and circuses.
  
• The result validates the deeds.
  

Funny thing is they fit in everything quite well too- not only in RP. As it seems we humans haven't changed much in our ways for 2200 years, just the means are different when the result is the same.

Official faction players that are often accused of elitism, never deploy them and have those weird, immersion killing "fair fight/dueling" suicidal hobbies. (yes, i've seen enough of those lolduels, where house military with overwhelming force on the field willingly loses a pilot in a duel. ffs.)

A lot of my work is inspired by former members of Discovery -- Boss, Zapp, Leonardo, Dream Theater to name a few.

Most of my characters are just personality extensions of myself.

Were fools to make war on our brothers in arms.

And now it is my turn.

I didn't read classical literature, time-proven philosophy, I didn't watch famous movies, didn't play sci-fy games, I don't know much from any branch of science, I have no mates around and I didn't have true high quality roleplay since a while.
My imagination is limited in its current state, I mostly forget my dreams.

I am loosing mind concentration once trying to think about a story to roleplay out, my characters are being deleted soon after created.
Any goal I am trying to make proves itself to be useless because I can't find sense in the background, like "why shall I do it? There is no gain..."

Thank you for sharing your thoughts, they stimulate me to work with my mind and soul, hope it could turn out in enjoyable roleplay sometimes as a particular result as well.
