I am Kappa, known by that name in glowfic/on alicornutopia, and I play Leaf and Nifl. (Nifl has been quiet lately for reasons. I might bring her back at some point, but expect her participation and Leaf's to be somewhat inversely proportional.) (Are there spoiler tags on this forum...?)
Who are you and who do you play?
Participation in this thread optional, of course, if you like your secrets.

Hi! I am BlueSkySprite or Kelardry! I play Botanical Engineer and Dotted Lines.
(If anyone had advice because I am doing something wrong or there is something I could obviously be doing better, please let me know. I am new at this.)

Hi! I'm anthusiasm/inquisitivefeminist/Annie and I play the Fortunomancer!
I'm planning to introduce some other characters from the same setting at some point. They will probably not be members of the Guild of Master Spellcrafters because while the Guild members all have personalities and backstories and relationships and such, they're still less fleshed out than my standards allow.

I'm Adelene! I'm probably going to stick to the one character for now, though if I see a perfect opportunity to introduce a blob monster character I won't pass it up. ^^

I'm Aestrix! I technically have two characters, but they're both operating out of the same account. This one!

Hey I think I've figured out a way to sort of achieve the same affect as spoiler text! I did it by copying the BBCode from Andrew's books with hovertext. Basically this with the parentheses replaced by square brackets: (a title="'The spoiler bits go in here!'")(u)This contains an example spoiler(/u)(/a) Turns into this: This contains an example spoilerIt's not as nice as a spoiler box, but I think it's pretty similar to spoiler text, so that might help some?

I'm lambdabeta/sonatagreen, and I play Mother Starlight, Gray Librarian, and QUALITY DISCOUNT SPELLBOOKS.
I think I could make a spoilertext feature available, if there's a use case for it?

If the alternative is hovertext, I'd much rather have spoiertext, just so I don't have to figure out how the mirror could sensibly handle the former. (The latter would obviously be whispering. ^^)

I’m DanielH. I’m currently playing Andrew. He’s not that fleshed out yet, and I hope that once I get his personality and backstory more solid I will glowfic with him too.
I’ll get an avatar for this account shortly.

There is a use case for spoilertext in letting me put up a symbolic barrier around Nifl's identity and motivations so that if anyone wants to know those things, they will have to read A Spoiler in order to do so.
I haven't thought of an IC use case, but probably if it existed someone would eventually find one.

If someone wants to post something that's a memetic hazard to some people but not everyone, and wants to warn for it so it isn't removed, or something like that, it could be useful. There are probably other uses as well, and it could be fun to play around with!

Spoilers should work now. Testing: shh, it's a secret
