Having had about a month of careful planning destroyed in the span of about 10 hours, I can say safely say that being a witch is really rough. People tell you that all you need to do is be sneaky and not mess up but like... that's hard when any minor slip up will result in your immediate execution. I felt stressed out numerous times from improperly rped hexes or just people being suspicious of me when I only ever really used hexes with at least 6 other people around. Though even now I wonder what I could've done better, I don't think I did a terrible job. I can't really control how people rp towards things like that or even that everyone wants to be the one to reveal the witch and have them burned.
There's not really anyone I'm mad at for what happened the other night at this point. Do I think it could've been better executed? For sure. Do I think that a lot of the issues that came from the scene were because everyone really just wanted to sleep after a certain point? Kinda, yeah. There were a lot of things I wanted to do and it sucks that I didn't have the chance to even try and hop up back on my feet after an unfortunate reveal like that. But, at the same time, that's how things are ICly- there's nowhere for the witches to go and grow at. It was always meant to be an uphill battle and I tried to make the most of it till the very end, though. All because I wanted to play a good antagonist and eventually make big things happen against all odds. That was my goal going into it anyways.
Unless people can start being more respectful of them, I don't know if they're really any good in this RP environment. Not with the way the community is at the moment at least. The person playing them usually ends up understandably demotivated and, with nothing to support them and literally every faction against them, it just ends up being an overall bad time for the witches.
I tried to respect the RP of others, but in the end I'm not sure if my own RP was entirely respected. I'll keep it moving along on my next character though and see what I can do to stir up RP for everyone. Best of luck to the remaining witches if there even are any left.
