When I finally apply for Permission, I want to use my default self-insert Karen as an Agent, but I'm also trying to get into roleplaying on Tumblr and wanted to use her there. I'd change her so she's got no affiliation with the PPC at all in my roleplays, but I'm wondering what other people think? Is it okay to use Karen if I change her backstory, when I'm also using her here?

I was considering the idea of using a character I created, for an original story I never wrote, and making him a member of the PPC.
Then I remembered his magic would probably be a bit too powerful. Not by his world's standards, really, but eh.But then again, there is the fact he often fails the magic and blows things up/turns people into animals/makes cakes spontaneously appear... -

It would be pretty funny if he went to go and attack a Sue and a cake dropped on her head instead, haha!

In my experience GMs don't like to have PPC agents around for characters because of their meta nature. It depends on the nature of the RP, though.

Basically you write a section, your partner writes a section, back and forth, so-such.

I must confess I've never RPed in Tumblr. I've mostly RPed in TvTropes, though I've also played D&D IRL in the past.

Lots of us have agents that were/are RP characters. I tend to think of separate RPs as alternate universes as far as a shared character is concerned, and the different instances of the character don't necessarily have to have anything to do with each other. They can if you want them to, though. Plenty of PPC agents have some level of awareness that they are characters, even if it's something they push to the back of their minds most of the time.
