Types of characters/roleplayers you'll see on RPN #3

The furry. Now, I do not have problems with furries as people. As long as they're not endangering themselves in pursuit of their hobby (is it a hobby? Or is it a lifestyle like veganism?) I think its perfectly cool. However, the specific type of character/roleplayer I'm talking about always makes an anthropomorphic animal (which can be different from a furry depending on who you ask but "anthropomorphic animal" as a name doesn't quite roll off the tongue) as their character, even in roleplays where it makes zero sense. My man, my woman, my non-gender conforming person, this is an rp set in modern day New York City! There are no talking foxes that walk upright! Please stop!

The psychopath. This character is exactly what it says, a psychopath. This, in and of itself, is not a problem, assuming the psychopath can be written well. What is the problem is that the player makes them a hero. And not in a twisted "I think I'm the good guy" character examination thing, they just make them a hero and think that them murdering and being a sadistic jackass to their hearts content is okay and nobody is going to have a problem with it. Also, they might romanticize it but I don't have experience in romance rps so I couldn't tell you.

If I had a nickel for every time a science fiction plot could have been solved with 21st century tech... I guess I could buy a candy bar. And, of course, the idiotic choice of using force field doors in prisons instead of regular old bars, not to mention hooking them all up to the same power grid.

Types of characters/roleplayers you'll run into on RPN #1

The introvert. This character has an extreme aversion to interacting with other characters and actually roleplaying with them is generally a chore because of that. There are two subtypes of the introvert.

The Antisocial Edgelord. This character is a cynical jackass who is annoying at the best of times and downright insufferable at worst. Sometimes they have a tragic backstory to justify their behavior, other times they're just assholes.

The Wall Flower. This character is quiet and scared of basically everything. Sometimes, they're cute but most of the time they're just annoying. Again, sometimes they have a tragic backstory to justify their behavior, other times they're just Bernadetta but terrible.

There's 104 days of summer vacation til school comes along just to end it.

He's a semi-aquatic egg laying mammal of action!

Little known fact: the more flesh a Zombie loses, the closer their voice begins to sound like Skeletor.

Kid's Youtube Video: *Has comments turned on*
Me: Is that even possible?

Jesus coming back from the dead three days later:

Honestly, if FBI agents are watching most of the American populous they must be so bored.

Why did the Death Star have only one thermal exhaust port? On a station that big you'd think you'd need a lot more.

Why is it that all live action shows are either sitcoms, Doctor Who, Breaking Bad, or Grey's Anatomy.

You don't realize how bad your breath smells until you wear a mask.

War... war changes frequently with the advancement of technology.

"I never learned how to reaaaad!"

Proposal: change the name of script rps and script fics to something else, as they are not scripts nor do they resemble scripts and calling them as such is an insult to screenwriters everywhere.

Fascinating. It's after December 2020 but Coolmathgames' flash games are still working. How odd.

Precision is the ability to hit something in the same spot multiple times, not the ability to hit something in the spot you were aiming at (that's accuracy) so technically Obi-Wan was correct when he said Stormtroopers are precise.

New idea: I break into people's homes, but instead of stealing things I make things ever so slightly cleaner and leave behind an air freshener as a sign that I was there.

Challenge time! Can you pronounce this Welsh town: Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.

I sure as hell can't. And I'm not sure most Welsh people can either.

Wherever there is sky, THERE IS KRACKO.

Here's a fun game: type "I'm Uncultured" and have people guess what swear word you were trying to say.

For the record, I didn't actually swear here. I just typed I'm Uncultured.

It's weird. Scrooge is remembered for being a crotchety a-hole who hates Christmas, despite the fact that the entire point of A Christmas Carol is Scrooge learning not to be a crotchety a-hole who hates Christmas.
