I'm Andy, but everyone just calls me by whatever wrestler I'm the handler of so I guess I'm Jamie. I've never RP'ed as Jamie before, but I've always planned to. He's the older brother of another guy I used to handle, Drake Munday. I'll probably struggle here at first because I've never RP'ed as a full-on white meat babyface before, and it's a huge change from the psychopaths and cocky youths I've handled before. Any advice and feedback would be appreciated.

Speaking as someone who's handled a cocky, young, psychopathic babyface for around a decade, entertainment is key. Your character doesn't even have to be all that nice, so long as he keeps people interested. For instance; my character was the type of guy who would lay into anyone who looked at him crosswise, man, woman, child, animal, inanimate object, it didn't matter. But he was entertaining as all outdoors, so the fans cheered him, no matter what he did.

All I can say is have fun with it. If you don't like what your writing, than don't write it. I "suppose" to be a heel, but I have my hillbilly moments (every Sunday ), but I still have fun doing it. Bubba

OK first off, I'm Frankie.B the handler of Cole Blaze ( a baby face ). And I have been in the ACW for quite some time, I have played the same wrestler for the most part of being here, however I pulled in a wrestler called Uria Kane, he was an egotistical heel, and it was nice to do something different, If your not feeling being a face, but your still wanting to be a fan favorite then become a tweener, someone that plays a fan favorite but has a mean streak, honestly there are allot of tweener's in the ACW, so its not something that is shunned or anything like that, it will give you a little more freedom to... well lack of a better word be a Dick from time to time, but if your really looking to make the change to face all the way I might be able to help, I'm a face kind of guy, so if you need me just PM me or something hell hit me up on my Email ( fbilly26@aol.com ) and we can talk about it, If I can help I will, if not hell the chat will be nice,
I'm hoping that this helps, if not I'm sorry Bubba!

welcome first off..
second, I'd go ahead and try and play the face.. because if you don't take the risk you'll never know if you could have pulled off a different kind of character. Requires a whole different skill set then a heel.. and if it doesn't work.. you can always use someone different..

that's why I'm doing, I've never been a full on babyface underdog, so I may as well give it a go. just hoping people will bear with me while I get to grips with this

Welcome again -
And yeah I'd say go for it. You never know, you might end up having a blast playing the babyface. Devon here started out as a 'tweenerish' heel, then went full on heel with the Toxic Melody faction, and now much to his chagrin is somehow a fan-fave face.
Its been fun playing through the progression, let me tell you.

Welcome, Andy! Can I call you Andy? Maybe Jaimandy? Jandy? Jandy. There we go. You're Jandy. I'm Dimitri.
Being a face is more fun than you'd think... The hardest part is getting started.

Not to contradict anyone here, but the hardest part about playing a face is keeping them on the straight and narrow. Making sure to keep with the honor, defend the weaker, stand up for what's right attitude the faces usually have. it's in human nature to play heels.
As someone who played them, and did a hell of a job with it i have found that the hardest thing about Carnage is watching his mouth. Trying to keep the respectful tone and yet still get your point across.
i do agree however that entertainment is the key to a face. My heels have always been Point/Counter point heavy, but Carnage on the other hand is entertainment heavy.
Hope this helps.
