[quote=@CowardlyKhajiit]hello! i'm kitsy, i've been roleplaying for years but somehow never on a forum, not sure how much different it'd be however. i actually have a few questions? see, i roleplay mainly on tumblr, where i make a new account for the different characters i want to roleplay (for those who also rp on tumblr, i know multimuse blogs are a thing, but i'm not a big fan). but on forums, do you just establish the character you're playing as within the post? that's the only question i have about these things.[/quote] Most GM's will ask you to post a character sheet for them to review. So, you use 1 account and create multiple characters. If you want to store your characters, you can do that here: http://www.roleplayerguild.com/forums/34-character-sheets. You can also browse other peoples characters to see how others do it. RP happens here: http://www.roleplayerguild.com/forums/4-casual-roleplay (or the other levels of RP) or in private PM's. Just click any thread and you'll see there are 3 tabs: IC (in character), OOC (out of character) and characters (where people post their character sheets after approval). I think it is pretty obvious what goes where. [quote=@CowardlyKhajiit]i enjoy my good share of angst, feelsy RP's with in depth character analysis and development. i'm not very good at fight scenes, like most, i have a zero tolerance for god-modding. i enjoy drama and fantasy amongst others! i'm mostly versed in the elder scrolls universe, as well as bloodborne. but i'm pretty adaptive, i like to think. my first official character i roleplayed as was Angela Cross from the Ratchet and Clank series, and i think i'd like to give her another try![/quote] I think you'll find that there is a good share of TES RP's or people that are willing to do them. If you are looking to specifically do an idea that isn't around you can of course make your own RP, or post a interest check here: http://www.roleplayerguild.com/forums/16-1x1-interest-checks asking if someone is interested in doing a private 1x1 with you about that idea. [quote=@CowardlyKhajiit]and another question i have, while i have a few OC's that i enjoy playing as, i wonder if-- on forums, is it strictly OC or can i play as an already established character, like Angela Cross stated above.[/quote] You can play whatever the hell you want as long as the GM/your partner agrees. Hell if you want to play a talking octopus in an RP about gods and goddesses, and the GM approves it, then why the fuck not.
