Bio
Been writing for years. Waiting for the day that I get "good" at it.
What I expect of you:
1. Common courtesy. I haven’t run into many unkind people on here, but kindness is only one part of courtesy. I also expect that you will make a decent attempt to answer my OOC questions/comments. I would appreciate a heads up (if possible) if you are going to be unavailable for an extended period of time. Finally, if you are bored of our game, just say so. I wear my big boy pants most days.
2. Thick skin is an absolute must. If I make a suggestion that something in our RP doesn’t make sense, or if I have to tell you that things just aren’t working out, please don’t be a drama queen. I promise not to be a jerk about it.
3. I would appreciate only people over the age of 18 contacting me.
4. By no means do I believe myself to be an awesome writer, but it would be great if you are as good as or better than me. Looking back over the years, I realize that my writing ability grew the most when I was matched with a superior writer. Since I’m looking to improve myself, you’ll understand why I’m so picky.
What you can expect of me:
1. I am fairly literate and I make an effort to proofread my IC posts. Though don’t be surprised if my OOC communication isn’t as polished.
2. I can commit to being available three times a week at least. I typically prefer to be online for longer periods of time and to get a lot of RP’ing done at once. But I recognize that’s not easy between differing schedules and time zones. Speaking of which, I am in EST.
3. I will happily contribute to plot and setting planning. That being said if I’m not careful I tend to take things over. Don’t be afraid to put your foot down on details and decisions that you feel strongly about. Besides, I appreciate someone who is just as active as I am in contributing ideas.
4. I can play either gender and typically prefer my main character to be male. **HOWEVER** If you have a habit of telling people, “Sorry, I really only want to (can) play female” then please don’t bother contacting me. I feel it shows a serious lack of creativity to limit yourself to one gender. Besides, playing multiple characters is almost always required if the RP is going to have any depth to it whatsoever.
Preferred Platforms: It seems the platform of choice around here is PM. That’s fine with me. However, I am most interested in doing an RP over TitanPad or a similar program. TitanPad is really cool because it allows us to type in real time to each other in a streamlined document. In addition, there is a live text box to the side of our main document that is perfect for OOC chat. If you’re not familiar with this platform but are curious, let me know. It’s really easy to learn how to use and of course it’s free (you don’t even need to make an account).
Genres and Settings: Things I don’t like Anime Most Fandoms Slice of Life Steampunk Dystopian Society
Things I like a lot Post-Apocalypse Historical Time-travel Wartime
(Rough) Potential Plots: I am currently interested in doing a “woman thrown back in time” type of RP. The year/setting is flexible but I think I’d be most interested in Norse, Medieval, Roman, Greek, Hebrew, Western.
I am always up for a good post-apocalyptic RP. The focus can be heavily upon the element of survival, or it can be more political such as in the case freedom fighting or territory wars.
If after reading all this you are still interested send me a PM with the following… 1. A sample of your writing 2. Your current time zone 3. Preferred platform (PM, Titan Pad, E-mail) 4. What kind of RP you are most excited about 5. What type of character you would potentially like to play
I doubt it, considering what we know about his personality. But Kyle will be in the PM, so should be choose to surprise us, he will have every opportunity ;)
Okay, apparently we can only have 5 people included in the PM. So, I will add Kyle automatically to the conversation so that he can correct us if we do something we shouldn't. Otherwise, if anyone else knows that they want to be included in this scene, let me know either on here, or in a PM, and I will make sure that they get included before the final post.
I will have this PM started in the next 6-7 hours (I am currently at work). I'll shoot out the initial post of Sarah rounding up Karen and Gwen. I'll assume that both of them can be found d near the camp fire performing various camp chores. I hope to hear from you both soon. So excited to start writing again!
Wonderful! Sounds good... So, should we do this over PM? I'll get one started if so. I will also invite everyone else in the RP to observe in case they would like to interject something in the scene. However, unless that happens, the scene will primarily contain Sarah, Karen, and Gwenyfar.
@rivaan Well, our characters are in different groups. So if we want to do a collaboration, it will likely need to be in the evening when camp is made. Although, at this point I'm not sure if Sarah would be up for approaching anyone for casual conversation. At some point she will want to bathe if the road to minorhold leads close to a river. She could ask Karen if she wants to come along for safety's sake. @MacabreFox She may also ask Gwenyfer (spelling?) Since she is also female. Maybe a three way collaboration?
Alright, things are officially moving forward. Whoop whoop! Great post, Kyle. Now, anyone interested in doing an "on the road" collaboration? I'd like to get some character development in on our way to Minorhold.
