Hello!

I'm new to the world of roleplay. Very new. No OCs, no plot ideas, and not a single clue what exactly I'm doing.

That being said, I'm a quick learner, open to constructive criticism, and I think my enthusiasm makes up for any of those other issues! I've been exploring the casual roleplay interest checks, but many of the groups are large and feel chaotic to me. I think 1x1 would help me develop my skills and become a better roleplayer, and suits my personality better. One day I'd like to be an advanced roleplayer, but I'd label myself as "casual" right now.

So, what's in it for you? Think of me as a blank slate, a lump of clay. You can mold me into your ideal roleplay partner, in theory. I'm a pretty eclectic person, so I'm up for just about anything plot wise.

Feel free to post here or shoot me a PM if you're interested!

@Beliael Welcome to the Guild. :)

Are there any series or genres you're a fan of?

@Otaku95 I'm all over the place when it comes to my media consumption. My favorite books tend to defy genres, like The Sparrow by Mary Doria Russell. It's got a little bit of everything: sci-fi edged with realism, creeping dread, crippling guilt, a dash of hope, and a fair dose of questioning religious bodies. All that good stuff!

I also enjoy listening to podcasts like Welcome to Night Vale. I suppose, for me, it's more about the characters than the setting or theme, so I'm pretty open minded! I do want to stay away from fandom roleplays, as I don't think they would challenge me to improve as a writer or roleplayers, especially if I wasn't creating/using my own OCs.

@Beliael An excellent way of thinking. I prefer the sci-fi and fantasy genres myself (I was basically raised reading C.S. Lewis, Christopher Paolini, Michael Crichton, and James Patterson), as well as science fantasy.

@Otaku95 Me too! My mom read the Chronicles of Narnia to my sister and I as bedtime stories, and I was so obsessed with The Inheritance Cycle and anything by Tolkien in middle school that I filled multiple notebooks trying to learn the various languages.
Crichton is a newer interest of mine, but I've read most of his stuff over the last few years.

Hey there, @Beliael! Welcome to the world of Roleplaying!

If you're still looking for a Roleplay mentor, then I'd be more than happy to act as one for you! I was taught to Roleplay by a very skilled individual myself and would love to pass on what he taught me. I have no particular Roleplays in mind either, so if there's anything that you would want to experiment with/write out, then we could begin discussing and see where that takes us. If you're interested, then let me know! Otherwise, I hope you find what you're looking for and enjoy the Roleplays that you do find!

@Cyndyr I'll shoot you a PM!

First off, welcome to Guild! Fresh meat is always fun~ I've never been one to mentor since I make pretty narly mistakes but I am 100% up for making friends, answering questions, and generally goofing off together!
