How I tell stories and other meta-matters

Whenever I try to present something from the past, I adjust some qualities of the stories. Let me go through some of them now.

Persona

I ask a D&D 5e Random Character Generator to give me these details. I want to make sure you don’t spend any time entertaining any biases on gender, race, ethnicity, religion, or educational/socioeconomic background. Decisions need to be under the microscope and not people.

Project / Activity Description

Expect me to change some identifying details so we don’t identify things specifically. Context is essential, but actions and reactions are usually more common than we would like to admit.

Wording

Most of my wording, from emails or discussions, is based on my best memory, not explicitly copied. It’s always from the first-person perspective and not a central authority.
