This was really early in my RP 'career', back in the first RP site I joined. Unlike RPN, that site was all one big roleplay, and your account was associated with a character you built and was approved by staff. You were allowed to make multiple accounts there though. Each character was only...

For the most part my characters just sit on my saved character list when an RP dies. It is a little saddening - after all, I am both a planner by nature and someone with the approach of fully committing my efforts to making my characters something I can feel proud of having made, “worth it in of...

When it comes to writing (and most things, really), I am a very results-over-process type. So one of my favorite things about writing is just seeing, having that finished product that I can take pride in having made, and which reflects the effort and thought I put into it, the little ideas I...

Hi there! Assuming you want to roleplay with an individual partner (AKA a 1x1 RP), as opposed to running/managing a group roleplay, the place you want to post is here: 1x1 Interest Checks I personally recommend having the following things since this is a very specific / narrow interest check...

You're welcome. I wish you the best of luck and happy roleplaying :)

I've really had an uptick in the ratio of partners that I really found to be great partners over my time gaining experience in RP. I think a big part of that was just gaining an understanding of my own preferences, and I would absolutely recommend that for everyone. Knowing your preferences...

I have too many hobbies and interests to ever really be bored unless I am doing something which I end up finding boring or otherwise prevented from doing anything. There's simply not a moment in which I don't have several things to do. This really contributes to my love of slower paced, but more...

=1&c[newer_than]=2024-03-03&c[nodes][0]=9945&o=last_update&g=1']Here is a list of interest checks mentioning the word Mafia (which may not always be a hit, but to be honest it's a difficult word to just happen upon in an unrelated sentence) made in the last month, ordered by how recent they are.

Arctic Apocalypse sounds by far the most interesting and unique, especially with some speculative ecology/biology mixed in. Survive the cold with odd creatures and plants adapted to it. Personally 'hard science' and space opera seem pretty incompatible to me. Such a setting isn't impossible...

I largely agree with @nerdy tangents here, though I would at the very least add 'a basic sense of responsibility'. Truthfully though, I would say luck, players/partner and responsibility are the main factors. I am using 'responsibility' here in the sense of doing one's due diligence in ensuring...

Well, first of all, if it's a story-focused RP, then it probably shouldn't be primarily a character-focused one (tough it should still feature character exploration and involve characters). Even if that character is an NPC. It should be more about the 'what' is happening, 'why' and perhaps...

Poll aside, my favorite genres would be comedy and fantasy. I'm also a big fan of slice of life, mystery, dice, VR game and some anime-ish genres like magical girls and isekai.

Tense-wise, I almost exclusively use past tense. There's two main reasons for this: 1 - It's generally the way stories are written. It's not universal by any means, but most books and the like are told with a past tense. It's also just how it's more natural to tell stories, because a story you...

You're welcome :)

Completely out of context one wouldn't really be able to tell. Appropriate post length will depend on various things, in particular who is playing and what their preferences are (not to mention things like the scene context and the like, but preferences play a big role in determining how long a...

Having NPCs isn’t strange or abnormal, I don’t think. I would suggest that as a general rule they are used in particular scenes, though naturally it depends on the roleplay. I’m assuming you meant that the player controls by the way, not the character controlling the people around them, which...

A concept I used to apply when I reviewed characters in group RPs is what I called a 'serious flaw'. It's characteristics were as follows: Negative personality trait - Flaws, as opposed to handicaps as per terminology from a certain podcast I used to hear, are related to a character's...

These kinds of roleplays aren’t super in my wheelhouse, but I will say that fandom seems kind of a strange combination with “open world”. At that point it’s just a plotless fandom RP which does make me wonder what your contribution as a GM would even be. Arbitration probably? That being said, I...

*Waves back and goes to your profile sends PM to not clog up this thread*

As I imagine is the case with everyone, it heavily depends. To me the major factors are the things I have to do besides the post (pressure from too many things to do gives me freezes in all of them), how easily I can find the right wording (which tends to have to do with how clear of an image of...
