    Advice/Help Does anyone know what it's like to play dnd

    One thing I suggest is that while players are making their characters, think about how the characters come to be a believable group with shared interests and goals. One good example is somebody that all the players had known in their pasts passes away and there is a reading of the will. Some of...

    Experiences Whats something you regret doing in a RP, or an embarrassing RP moment?

    Yeah, I guess the key word here is "Stupid" -- I think every goliath should have a david able to take them out with the right luck or knowledge, or every Achillies have an Achillies Heel... but yeah, seeing badasses take cheap falls is never fun. It detracts from everyones sense of power and...

    Viewpoint What are some common RP traits that you don't understand the appeal of?

    Totally. I ran a nobility RP which went fantastically -- and there were social elements as well as a lot of intrigue, politics, diplomacy and fighting on a small and large scale. Really enjoyed it. If there was going to be a nobility roleplay about a single event or ball, it should say that on...

    Experiences Whats something you regret doing in a RP, or an embarrassing RP moment?

    Wrapping up ANYTHING too quickly. If it's in your RP, you should take the time to give it some love. I can understand sometimes the desire (or need) to wrap things up quickly... but it generally gets in the way of player agency and sweeps the rug from under some people. So I'm careful not to do...

    Advice/Help Possible help with nation roleplay

    I think a cool idea would be a "Big Sky" theme for pirates in a sci-fi/fantasy mixed world. By Big Sky I mean the adventures take place in a rich solar system, but there is breathable air beyond the isolated atmospheres of the planets -- ships (with fast drives to cover the distances) "sail"...

    Experiences The Weirdest Thing You've Googled for a RP

    How many people a cow could feed if slaughtered right away, used for dairy depending on if there was a ready supply of grass or not. It was for a post-apoc scenario where the survivors found a cow and had the dilemma of using it for short or long term sustenance... but boy did it lead me down...

    As somebody who presently is (hopefully) coming off a months long bout of writers block -- I can only say THE MUSE COMES AND GOES. Make sure you take breaks from writing because that's totally healthy and a great way to revive your excitement about writing. Even Writers for award winning shows...

    Experiences What was your first ever rp with someone?

    Back of the elementary school bus -- one of my classmates played an auctioneer for sci-fi equipment and the rest of us pretended to bid on it. It was basically screaming until we were all hoarse and one of us would get picked. We loved it. The bus driver on the other hand likely got some grey...

    Idea 40k Tau RP... anyone intrigued/interested by this?

    thanks @Cosmo -- this really bombed though. It'd probably do better as a formal interest check though. My dream... is bridging the gap between conventional roleplayers and gamier/nation-buildy RPs. Guess I'll have to write an article about that and see if I can get it published in the RPN...

    Idea 40k Tau RP... anyone intrigued/interested by this?

    With my current Nation Builder starting to wind down, I'm thinking about all sorts of ideas for a new Roleplay. Are there people out there (not already familiar with nation builders a plus) that might be interested in a 40k Tau Roleplay? I would GM around 12-15 players, each representing a Tau...

    Experiences What was the most memorable roleplay you've ever had?

    My most memorable RP was one I ran for like three years on RPN called "Lost Continent: Flight from Muurdaan" -- it was my first Nation Building RP and was wildly successful. Had a lot of really good players and a lot of cool interactions between them. It was kind of like "High Fantasy" meets...

    Advice/Help World building advice needed

    I like the diversity of the idea... and it's not far from concepts already established in high fantasy and RPGs. It ignites MY creativity in that it gives a lot of special justifications or secret lore to discover to unravel why magic is so akin to some folks and not others. I thought it would...
