Current You can't respond to every criticism with "RACIST!" This has become the modern boy crying wolf. At some point, you have to face truth.

Bring it on, 2022. Fear won't be mind-killing me just yet.

RIP Christopher Tolkien. Sailed into the West to meet his father at last.

Happy 127th birthday to Professor Tolkien!

Bio

I'm not the sort to talk about myself unprompted, so this section will be scant. I vastly prefer one-on-one (1x1) or small group RP, as big groups and lots of chatter tend to overwhelm me. I prefer RP within medieval fantasy settings that are not too fanciful (think LOTR/GoT).

Welcome, Ardent :)

(There. Short and sweet.)
Oh, wow, I got my start on AOL, too! So many moons ago :D I wonder if we ever ran into each other there?
@GeekFactor This is my first time DMing of even RPing here as well, so don't sweat it.

As I just got back home I'm going to give everyone the go ahead to start posting IC. I will check back as often as I can to keep the RP flowing especially for people with don't have other player characters starting in the same area. Of course, people are welcome to keep joining and creating new characters as time goes on, the more the merrier as far as this particular setting is concerned.


Sounds good! I'll get a post up shortly :)
Bear with me, as this is my first time venturing into an RP on this site. Do we wait for someone to shout 'go!' or...just jump in and make a post?

Greetings Stranger,

* * * * * * * *


I’m not surprised to see your kind here. Many adventurers have traveled this way since the recent troubles had passed. No doubt you’ve heard about the tragedy that befell the community here at the Guild. Some say that the Guildfall, bane of role players, is slowly enveloping the community once again. I don’t know if I believe that, but I have noticed from time to time that posts or players will mysteriously disappear. They disappear without word and without notice, hidden by the leaders of our community. Maybe it’s nothing. But rumors and sideways glances seems to trail in their wake. You see, shortly before Guildfall had occurred similar disappearances were common as well and strange rumor began to ravage even the most common parts of the guild. But until more evidence is uncovered I’ll remain here within this community and so should you. You’ll find interesting role play ideas across all the various topics categories here on the Guild and a few of mine or ones that I participate in as well. However, I would make sure you save your own information before the shadow that fell over the Guild before the fall once again consumes us all. But if you’re still alive before then, I’ll be more than happy to accommodate any role playing needs you may have if I can.

You should talk to some of the others, too. Guildmod has sent you a PM package to add with your new arrival and there are any number of veterans who are more than qualified to answer your questions. Maybe they can tell you more.

Thank you, EL, for such an eloquent and entertaining greeting :)


<Snipped quote by GeekFactor>
Medieval Fantasy seems to be a very popular focus, including for me, yeah. I looked at your profile and the link provided; don’t doubt you’ll fit in here. If you need any questions answered I’ll be happy to help, though I imagine most would be.


Thank you! Nice to meet a fellow fan of the genre as well :)
@GeekFactorLovely to meet you officially!


Ohh, thank you! So kind :)
What sort of writing?


Mainly medieval fantasy. I did slap a quick link into my bio with a tiny sample of my RP writing :) I'm still trying to figure out my way around this site. I admit, it's a little intimidating!
Welcome, Chronos! I'm new as well, so good luck to us both :D
