What is the Strangest Thing That You've Done for an RP?

I researched snake physiological to figure out how a person with the lower half of a snake would use the restroom.

It seemed important at the time! But now I regret it.

@ReiaI would say a server might be the best format. For example, you could have multiple rooms and use roles to lock people out rather than keeping track of individual PMs. This could be a way to keep stuff centralised for you. As well as having general chat or/as well as an OOC chat specific for the RP. That's my two cents

@GingerBoi123

If I do create one, it will be optional. I want people to feel free to roleplay with me via whichever of the presented mediums they prefer - RPGuild or Discord.

@ReiaJesus, your limit is 15 xD More salutes to you because I don't think I could manage this with five people :p

Do you want us to DM the character sheets and is the discord link available?

@GingerBoi123

DM the character sheets, yes! I'll give my personal Discord if you wish when you private message me.

I wasn't thinking of making a Discord server originally, but I'm definitely getting the sense that some people would prefer that I did. I won't have time to organize it properly until late tonight at least, but should I make a proper Discord server?

Room for more? This looks really cool!

@GingerBoi123

I think so! My player cap is going to be about 15, I think. I can't imagine myself being able to work with more players than that.

At present I've had... 14 individual people express interest, I think, between the Interest Check, posts here, and PMs. However, nobody's sent me a completed sheet yet.

I will note, of course, that the more players there are the more I may have to slow down. I'll be trying to include as many players as I can.

Ultimately, I want it remembered that players of any writing skill level can apply. I don't mind if someone writes at a casual level or is even brand new to roleplaying, nor do I mind if they consider themselves advanced. I'm hoping I won't have to deny anyone, but if I do I'll try and make sure there's a waiting list for people that don't get in. Honestly, I didn't expect to get this much interest, so I'm working out how I will decide who to keep as players and who to put on the waiting list.

I will add this - if people want to form official roleplay groups, that might give me less threads to focus on and would be more manageable, meaning I can work with more total players.

Of course, despite all the people PMing me and posting, I'm worried the roleplay will look very much like me yapping at myself in the IC section. But it's okay if people think I'm talking to myself.

@Pupperr

iirc Reia said group pm or somethin

@stone

Correct! Group convos - or Discord convos - can be used for people that decide to form groups.

Happenstance will probably begin with PM Convos on the forums, though!

Destiny's Call (Grand Fantasy Roleplay)

Interesting concept. Is there ample opportunity for players to accidentally meet up or what not to allow interaction between them? And if so, what does that look like if there isn't a traditional IC thread? Is Discord mandatory?

Accidental meetups will definitely be happening. Discord is optional, not mandatory.

Here's how I imagine it working:

- Player 1 is a Faerie witch working out of the Everbloom Forest.
- Player 2 enters into the Everbloom Forest, specifically in a way that would put them near Player 1.
- At this point, I will either make clues that someone is doing things nearby OR if it feels fitting I will have them meet directly.
- If they meet, I create a Conversation via the forum that includes both of them. Now they can decide whether they want to roleplay out an encounter via collaborative writing, PMs, or what-have-you!

I'm fuckin ready to have some fun. Question! Can you have two characters if they're a pair?

@stone

Absolutely! Essentially you'd still only have one Destiny pool, so 'mechanically' you would be one character. Roleplay-wise, however... yes. Two characters!

Destiny's Call (Grand Fantasy Roleplay)

Triple post, but I completely forgot to add a VERY important thing to the character sheet. It's this line:

Ambition: Make sure to define in whatever length you wish what your character's overarching goal is. It can be a few words, a few sentences, a paragraph... Why does Destiny tug at your character's soul? What is their ambition?

It's on there now, of course!

A big fantasy adventure, but you don't know who the other players are!

The read is up! I've pinged you both in the thread itself and in the interest check (here), just in case.

Applications are open now, but the roleplay itself will begin 2.20.2020.

I hope it's okay I finished writing everything today instead of Thursday. I went a little nuts.

Click me!

EDIT: Oh, and by the way - I intend to start the roleplay on 2.20.2020. You can always jump in late if you're not ready then!
