[b]User Name:[/b] Ichthys [b]Join Date:[/b] September 2010 [i](Pre-Guildfall)[/i] /// January 2014 [i](Post-Guildfall)[/i] [b]RP interests/Genres/Categories:[/b] [list] [*][b]Genres/Types of RPs:[/b] - Fantasy RPs: Generally, I prefer Fantasy RPs in any of its diverse flavors. - Supernatural/Mythological RPs: Read above. - Science Fiction RPs: I don't do these all that much, but I don't have any glaring qualms about them; they just don't interest me as much as some other genres. - Drama/Suspense/Thriller RPs: If it's not typical drama, like High School Life or something, but something hard-hitting, something that is either very original, creative or causes me to think or feel, then I like it. I don't do many of these, but the ones I do are usually pretty great. - Survival RPs: I usually enjoy these. I like the challenge of being both a good writer and an ingenuitive survivor. Plus, the mix of characterization and relationships that are usually in the mix are good. - Adventure RPs: Isn't any RP an adventure, in its own way? I like adventure in all of its forms. - Comedy RPs: Of the very few "comedy" RPs that I've seen, I've been utterly confused and repulsed from the funky gangbang of randomness. - Mystery RPs: These are usually a basket toss and rely most on the GM and the RP's mechanics, so I can't really make a clear opinion on them. - Horror RPs: Personally, I consider Horror RPs as a darker form of Drama, just like with Suspense RPs, so I have the same thoughts on them; I don't want something super cliche. - SoL RPs: I don't normally do these all that much, but the few I've actually done have been surprisingly pleasant. Something about deeper development and finding beauty and something worth writing in everyday lives is nice. Its also nice to see how heavily character development and relationships can play in an RP. I tend to be very picky with these though, as I have an unspoken list of requirements to separate SoL smut from what I consider quality. - Combat-Oriented RPs: The thrill of a fight is always enjoyable. Always. Plus, I enjoy all the thinking and creativity that has to be done while writing in combat. - Romance RPs: Never done one, but I feel like these things can be slippery slopes, so I tend to stay away. - Canon/Historical/"Allusion" RPs: RPs based on shows, books, history, video games, etc. aren't really their own genre, since being based on another work isn't actually a type of RP, but I felt I should mention these. Basically, if the actual RP is good, then I wouldn't mind it, even if the hated the original work/event/universe it is based off of. The converse is also true. In my past, I've preferred and done a number of Naruto and Fairy Tail RPs. - Hybrid RPs: Since I know no RP is distinctly one genre, I felt like I had to mention what I call "Hybrid RPs", which are really just any RPs. In other words, I like Hybrid RPs profusely. Ultimately, it's on a case-by-case basis, I may like on RP of one genre but hate another in the same genre. The above opinions should only be a guideline.[/*] [*][b]Favored Level of Roleplay:[/b] Advanced, although I used to be a Casual RPer, but as I've matured, I've started enjoying Advanced over Casual. Thus, I'd still be okay with a Casual RP under the right circumstances. In all honesty though, considering my preferences, I'd fit somewhere between Casual and Advanced, where quality has priority over quantity, but where activity is hustling-and-bustling (what can I say, I can be impatient sometimes). I enjoy Nation RPs on occasion. When it comes to Tabletop RPs, I've never done them. Some seem very interesting, but the part that terms me off is all the different things that have to be kept track of. That said, I wouldn't mind trying one out. I have never done a Free or 1x1 RP. For whatever reason (some reasons obvious, some not), I don't prefer them. Maybe if I had a good RP partner and friend with a nice RP, then I would try 1x1, but with anyone, I just can't.[/*] [/list] [b]Active Roleplays:[/b] - [url=http://goo.gl/5U5QJU]Untitled[/url] by Ichthys [b]Current Interest Checks:[/b] - None [b]Past RP's:[/b] - [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/3456/posts/ooc?page=1]Blight[/url] by glibglobb - Ended prematurely; GM missing.
