@Letter Bee
Yes! I do, group roleplays were actually my core for a good part of my roleplay past, that's typically how the websites functioned: mass group rps driving an even larger plot
I am running a Group Roleplay; want to check it out?

Noble Arms is now either four years old, or three years and eleven months. The third thread had lasted for more than one year.

My Roleplay, Noble Arms: The ASEAN War, will reach its 4th year in June or July. It's been a long journey.

I am running a Group Roleplay; want to check it out?
-the mists grow thicker until all in sight is nothing but white and the shadow fades with the rest of the world...smells like petrichor...-
Do you do group Roleplays?
Hello; glad to see ya.
Hello!
I'm Kaisaan, and I am posting here because I am new! Yay me!
I might be a newbie to this site, but I am not new to writing or roleplaying and have been doing so for 17 years. I very much look forward to getting to know this site, the people here and starting some stories! Thanks for having me!
Welcome; happy to meet you.
Welcome.
Intermission Three - All Saints' Day in Mischief Reef
Mischief Reef/Đá Vành Khăn/Panganiban Reef - 11/01/2022 08:10 UTC+8
Jin Li changed what he was doodling from a random picture to a rough map of Southeast Asia, before saying, "My tutors told me that ASEAN, even after 1988, was never meant to be a military alliance - It was an economic, cultural, and political one where every member had loose obligations towards each other and had clauses against interfering in each others' affairs. If anything, it's a miracle that this pact lasted against the PLA and its forces even with our help... Especially as two ASEAN countries, which are not in Civil War, are inclined to side with the so-called People's Republic of China over, say, Vietnam and Thailand."
He pointed to the doodles of Laos and Cambodia and said, "Laos owes China money and has its series of hydroelectric dams on the Mekong built with Chinese help in 'better times'. Cambodia, meanwhile, is a poor country that has accepted immense Chinese investments as late as 2020, just one year before the war. Its King is hostile to China, but its Prime Minister and large portions of the army see it as a counterweight to Vietnamese and Thai influence. You can see where I or my tutors are going, right?"
The boy sighed, then continued, "Not just that, but while First Lieutenant Alonso is loyal to his country and anything that keeps him away from that 'Dragon of Thirst'," Jin Li chuckled at that, "the Government of National Salvation he serves is a patchwork of factions in a civil war with the very people who invited the PLA into ASEAN territory in the first place - The core is held together by genuine patriotism but everyone outside it with any bit of power is an opportunist, a traitor, or potentially both."
Pointing with his stick to the crude picture of the Philippines on the sand, Jin spoke, "The Philippine Government of National Salvation came to power because the President-Elect was assassinated by the previous President, who ran for Vice President to circumvent their Constitution's laws restricting a President to one term, and that caused a constitutional crisis and civil war. Not only that, but the President-Elect's sister and mother sided against their dead son to stand with China, and their families have a lot of clout in the northernmost Philippines and some of the central islands, plus the far south."
He then looked directly at Qingshe and said, "Reports emerged that several collaborationist militias had been preparing in Lubao, Pampanga, to ambush the Philippine Army and Marines in Lingayen should they be forced to retreat from the beaches and city. These are in turn led by wealthy landowners and scions of powerful political clans. The victory in Lingayen Beach was a miracle because it stopped the PRC from winning the war outright... Even then, Huo Ren has been interested in certain people in the subsequent Task Force formed after that - Even if we plug up the leak, that interest won't end; I and Ren Zhao have agreed on this that he must be eliminated."

Intermission Three - All Saints' Day in Mischief Reef

"What I do know is that you work with people who can pull off a miracle," Han Rui replied to Cristina, even as he stared at the destroyed dummies, appreciative of the techniques that went into the attack. "And you stood for more than a minute against that 'Pervert Dragon' himself, so you're competent."
His English was good but also student-like, as though he was reciting from books. Nevertheless, he continued in a matter-of-fact tone, "Redemption is what you were taught in your Churches, right? That you can 'baptize' people and free them of sin. Find a way to do that; you have a band of actual comrades - Use them. And if you have not depleted your Noble Arm's potential, get a new power that can drive the corruption out of your sister and then hug her..."
He then looked at his watch and said, "Speaking of siblings, I have to eat breakfast with my brother; he defected too. But one last piece of advice: Do not underestimate yourself and your ability to pull off a miracle. Or if you feel you can't... Ask Ms. Lei or Mr. Makri or That Nun for help reversing the Descent's brainwashing. Don't just mope around or rage at the world - Unlock a new power and get better."
@Digmata
"You forget," Jin Li started his response, "My Noble Arm can control water; I can cool myself off whenever I want. And I'm the one offering hospitality here; aren't I?"
But the smile on his face as he asked that question showed that Marta's words had their desired effect of relaxing his mood. He then crouched, and as his Noble Arm flashed into existence in his right hand, and he began doodling on the sand with its blade like the child he was, the boy spoke, "Thanks anyway, you helped."
Looking at the blue horizon of the sea, the claimant to the 'Restored Qing Dynasty' continued, "By the way, have you heard the bad news from the US? Preliminary polling suggests that the party against aid to the Ukrainians is going to sweep most states, and the other party has insisted on tying ASEAN aid to aid for Kyiv. We are likely to not get either in this case unless a miracle happens among the American electorate."
Then he smirked and said, "Let's just say I'm going to gamble and hope that a miracle happens, while at the same time preparing for if it doesn't. What are your thoughts?"
@Amidatelion
Noel was the first to reply, saying, "Preliminary polling is often accurate - The war has worsened the US' border crisis and that is going to embolden the critics of the current President's party... And the current President of the United States wants to focus on internal prosperity and infrastructure anyway, even if it means letting his alliances dry up. We're going to have to prepare to stand on our own; maybe commit to an insurgency should things go even further south. Heck, it's a miracle we held out this long, and that in turn is due to us."
He then sighed and said, "Lingayen Gulf was decisive in that it prevented a quick Chinese conquest of the Philippines. The next two operations - Mischief Reef and Jinghong Dam - loosened the noose the Chinese had around us. Ironically, it was the Jinghong Dam operation that provides us with hope now - Ai Chen's actions are a scandal to both her people and most other nations, and that might get voters in the US to vote for candidates who would punish people like her and Huo Ren for their... activities."
Looking at Henri, the eighteen-year-old advised, "That said, now that you're here, I will need you for something."
Then he continued with, "Angelito Jaime, the Hero of 1988, is dying due to a cancer that feeds on his Arms Master Survivability. His Noble Arm, a bamboo spear that can open portals wide enough to swallow Chinese ICBMs and spit them back at the Chinese heartland, is important to our war effort. Your own Noble Arm can turn the cancer into a normal one that can be taken care of through high-end radiotherapy. So what do you think of helping us in that regard? Is it within your remit as a volunteer?"
