Hello again to one of my incredibly random and very helpful to me RP'ing questions and if you haven't guessed by now it is about wether or not I should center everything I type or leave it as is! Here is an RP sample first uncentered and then centered...


Now you don't have to read it all so no worries! Just tell me what looks better!

The gloom that shrouded his body shifted and moved unsteadily but it still consumed his appearence; being incognito like this had its advantages and disadvantages. Although, the advantages heavily out weighed the disadvantages that came with it.

"I agree to that - The Holy Father says that everyone is important, but my problems are most likely nothing compared to his or, quite likely yours. Now, what would you like to know?"

Good, he had taken the right choice and smoothly let go of the mans shoulder as he turned towards him to stare into the gloom that was Sol. Lowering his hand it too was consumed into the darkness. The only thing that stood out still was the massive scythe on his back. Strangely enough it seemed to offset this whole disguise of his. He smiled upon hearing the words but none of them could see it.

"How many?" He asked his voice seemed to come from nowhere and everywhere at the same time an apparition that sorrounded them all. Sol shifted his his head to look over the mans right shoulder. "How many of them are changed?" See? Disadvantages he had to use a lot of body movement sometimes to get his point across.

That cold feeling was touching him again; egging him on but he surpressed it for the love of the Lord he surpressed it. Sol would not simply become some killing machine that fell from the Lords grace and into the twisted command of Satan like those who he hunted. No, he would not... not now not ever that was a promise to him most divine.

Now Centered!

Yay, I have a cameo! XD

I'd say that centering always looks nicer, but I would also say that it's easier to read it when it's regular.

Uncentered gives it a book like feeling. Centered gives it a short story type feeling.
