What you think Sienna would do is not necessarily in line with what she *would* do. In fact, if she surprises you from time to time, that means I'm successfully roleplaying the character I created. I intentionally wrote her in such a way that she's
supposed to be a bit unpredictable without being completely erratic. I leave out a lot of what goes on in Sienna's head
on purpose. I don't
want the player base to always know what she's thinking or planning. That's part of the fun in this plot.

However, if it ever becomes a burden or a bother to the majority of the players, I will gladly adjust what I divulge and what I do not.
If you are ever unclear on the way something works, then by all means, please ask. I want to help, and I'm sure the other players in this RP want to do so as well, because not only does it help a fellow player, but it improves their own RP experience when everyone understands what's going on and is working within the same IC environment. The problem, I think, is that the way you are presenting yourself makes it seem like you're upset that things aren't going your way. I apologize if that isn't your intent, but because of the nature of text-based communication, those sorts of misunderstandings are very easy. The words you say (or in this case, type) are
heavily influenced by your tone of voice, body language, facial expression, and so on. Because none of those things are conveyed on a forum post, it's very, very important that you choose your phrasing very carefully so as not to send the wrong message.
I'm not telling you this to pick a fight or to be cruel; I want you to know that we are all trying very hard to accommodate you. However, you have to be willing to work with us just as much, or this isn't going to work. As I said, we are here to enjoy ourselves and have fun. We are writing a collaborative story here, not pitting characters against one another, nor is anyone keeping score. While it's fun to be the central character and/or the hero in a plot once in a while (and if I'm doing my job right as the GM, Vel
will have his spectacular moments), not everyone in the story is going to be totally in control every single moment, nor is everything always going to work out the way you'd necessarily prefer it to. That's the fun of playing these games with other people.

As a final note in response to your final sentence, NightWolfe (which I have deleted), as well as to ALL players here,
I will not tolerate hostility between players in my plot. If you have a problem with something another player is doing, you are perfectly capable of working it out like adults. Any refutation you give to another player's actions will be phrased in such a way that the specific issue you have is addressed specifically and in a mature manner, WITHOUT resorting to sarcasm, name-calling, or antagonistic wording. This thread, and any other under my control, will not be permitted to devolve into a flame war. I will not hesitate to remove any player from this plot who cannot treat their fellow players with the respect they deserve.
Consider this your one and only warning.

Now, if there are any other things that need to be cleared up, please ask me in the IRC or via PM. I am more than happy to set the record straight on anything else that needs to be explained, as long as it is not an attempt to change my mind on the current topic at hand. This goes for now as well as for any point in the future when you are confused or unclear on something that is going on.
However, if everyone has the information that they need, then we can let this matter drop and continue on with this story happily enjoying the experience for what it is.
