Kingdom Hearts Adjacent Interest Check

Thank you for the quick reply. While I'll keep an eye out for the OOC and still consider joining, I'm afraid I don't think this RP is going to be along the lines of what I'm looking for.

Best wishes with it though.

Kingdom Hearts Adjacent Interest Check

I adore Kingdom Hearts, even with its weird backwardsly written lore, so I'm definitely interested. However I do have a few questions, mostly on the nature of the RP in general.

Where do you envision this sitting on the angsty-edgy matrix? Angst is an inherent part of the setting, especially with Nobodies, but there's also usually a good amout of plucky hopeful optimism to balance it out and I don't want to get stuck in an endless loop of everything being bad.

What are your plans for conflict resolution/game structure? Is it going to be exclusively narrative focused, a basic dice system, or will there be actual RPG elements?

Fallout: Independence

"Well that can't be good."
Johannes says, mostly mumbling to himself as he turns from the balcony towards the various entertainment venues. As he made his way around partaking in the various foods and such he pondered what this might mean for the community. He didn't wish any ill will on the mayor, she'd done more in the last decade than most people did in their entire lives, but quite frankly she was old. Old enough that her death was an inevitable reality for the near future. The only thing to do was prepare to live with whatever happened afterward, and hope whoever fills the power vacuum doesn't destroy Independence in half the time it took to build.
Unsettling thoughts aside, he didn't take any particular action over the mayor's presumed ailment, she surely had enough people to look after her without the general rabble filing in one by one. And if anything more serious became of it he was sure they would be told in due time.

Fallout: Independence

Still not set on a specific character, would want to get a better look at the mechanics, party composition, game focus, etc. as well as how established or not you want characters to be in Independence at game start.

Hider

Name: 'Darrin'
Personality: Gruff with a sick humor streak. Darrin cares most for his guns, his money, and himself in this world, in that order. He'll take just about any job, but after an incident a few years back refuses to do anything with deep dark water.
Description: Darrin is built like a steel block, big, square, dense, and tough. His usual wear is a heavy armored coat with gloves, boots, and a wide brimmed hat leaving the only visible part of him to be a narrow strip of his eyes and nose. In more casual situations he usually wears a bandanna and lighter coat. Underneath his armor Darrin if fairly plain, albeit with practically white skin from wearing his armor so often.

Trading Card Game RPG

Looks interesting enough.
Would a potential RP based on this be focused on facilitating the game(deck building, battling eachother and NPCs, etc.) or would it be more focused on the game being used to facilitate RP?

Fallout: Independence

Hey are you still accepting singups here? I've been looking around for a first RP to join on this forum. My Fallout knowledge isn't exactly extensive, but I've got a few character concepts floating around the might fit in well, a liberian, a mutant, and a merc.

Hello

<Snipped quote by StormLord>
I was going to respond to this last night, but I was too tired. Hopefully I can answer your inquiry anyway. . .

My Hider

From my understanding, you can't exactly customize them though you can utilize BBCode, headers, and so on to make your Roleplays look more presentable. You can find guides for "prettying up" your Roleplays here. There is also what's referred to as a "zeroth post" on the OOC and Character tabs that can be stickied for important information such as summaries, lore, character lists, and so on. It may be easier to peruse the forums to see it in action as opposed to explaining it though. I wouldn't worry too much about making a "trash thread" though as if you're ever unsatisfied with your work, you can request it to be deleted by moderators here.

Hopefully this helped a little!

@Hyde

It did, thank you.

Hello

So I'm not sure where I should ask this, but I've noticed a lot of threads have several tabs. Namely IC, OOC, and Character Sheets.
How do these work? Is it at all possible to customize them? I didn't really want to make a trash post just to test.

The RP I'm looking around to move is large enough that we use a sub-plot campaign structure, where characters break of in groups of 3-6 and work through small campaign arcs run by sub-GM volunteers. In the current forum we're in the biggest reason we haven't moved is that we've got a dedicated subforum folder due to the multitude of thread we create getting lost or clogged in the standard RP section.

If it was possible to make custom tabs we could just have a master thread for each sub-plot set with each tab listing one of the subplots.

Hello

Hello, I am Stormlord, most people end up referring to me as Storm. I've been doing RPGs on and off for about a decade, but only really started Play-by-Post about four years ago.
The forum I was previous using for RPs has been a sinking ship for about a year or two now with little hope of activity or admin assistance so some of us in the group I play with have been reaching out and putting feelers around for alternate locations that would be good to migrate to.
I came across The Guild after browsing Reddit posts discussing popular Play-by-Post places and it caught my eye.
