While I've never really thought this way formally, I see this pattern
arising unintentionally... the players who put the most work into the game
get the most attention from me. A lot of that is because the more details
characters have, the more it gives me to work with and the more it
_inspires_ me. I can get a lot of great plot ideas from detailed
character backgrounds, motivations and goals. Characters that aren't
looking to go anywhere usually don't end up anywhere interesting.
