Hi! I'm also new here.

My hobby is writing and I like 1950s music. The best roleplay I've ever had was called Through the Ages and followed several kids from the first day of preschool to high school graduation. (It was on Wattpad though, which is where I used to roleplay.)

Hi Allison! The roleplay sounds so wholesome, love that!!
My hobby is playing volleyball, I like alt-j and girl in red a lot and the best roleplay I had so far was based of the show The 100 and it was very adventurous and spiritual!

Lets see hmm.. Im new as well i just recently made this account not to long ago. As for hobbies i love playing video games and watching anime.

For my favourite type of music its very hard for me to choose i just love all kinds of music its more so how im feeling during the day music is more of a way for me to express myself but i can say currently im listening to Within temptation and the song is called Raise your banner.

The best role play i ever experienced is with my significant other and i used to be in a rp group with other people online i can't remember what site we used but it was a medieval storyline with dark elves it was pretty cool

My hobby is training to become a swordsman. I love rock music, especially Old Time Rock and Roll, both the song and the genre. The best RP i've ever had was on a site called Aniroleplay. It was a one on one battle, between my OC and the OC of a person whose username was Storm. It was short, but it was epic! That is when I learned what the true joy of roleplaying is, and it made me want to become the world's greatest writer, which is my dream for life. It's too bad i never did anymore RPs with Storm, but whoever Storm was, if they see this, they changed my life forever.

It's too bad that most of my RP Ideas die out before even starting. There is a certain type of joy from the feeling you get from finishing an RP.

I feel like a good rp never really dies out. I have about 3rps that are basically not finished but my partners always ended up not replying because their life was too busy to have time to rp which surely is sad but to me it would feel even more sad to actually finish a roleplay and then it’s over, absolutely.

My hobbies available now is randomly drawing when bored, reading about random things in history, and looking up - even studying military tactics, tanks, the navy, and strategy. If it counts and also due to limited ability to see it, I also watch anime and such. Technically I guess RPing too even though I do that as much as possible or when I'm actually interested. Due to previously mentioned elements it kind of helps with making a setting feel authentic when applicable. Technology occasionally prone to breaking or malfunction > always reliable. When I could still do it, I occasionally built stuff.

I listen to anything that doesn't annoy me. So pretty much most of anything except most forms of country rap or country hip hop mixing. I also listen to a variety of music from other countries, but I don't really bother memorizing their names. Rammstein being one I remember by default. Then I also listen to Sabaton. I never had a leaning towards any genre until 19, when I started focusing on metal, it's variants, and anything with emphasis on a piano. I think the Piano is one of the most beautiful sounding instruments ever created.

That RP one is a bit difficult. This not being of participating in a low amount or anything, but because it usually ends up causing the apocalypse and we have to survive. And I don't have a single one that I can figure out "which is better" so all I can reference is memorable moments lol. For my next example the numbers might be wrong, but the story is pretty accurate. I don't have access to my original tablet due to charging, and the full story is in a document on it. In a 40k one for example we had one guy that was dedicated to being an armored corps leader, another focused on heavy artillery, and I mostly was a random massive CST regiment. There might of been another but it's basically 3 AM so I can't exactly remember. We played as individual commanders under the Imperium of Man, led by another player that sent us to places or gave us objectives, and they managed everything else we didn't have the ability to interact with. [I.E the rest of the military, space marines, vehicles on other planets unless attached to our unit/faction, etc. I think I made up some regiment referred to as the 66th Cadian. So any asset not under that name I couldn't control unless transferred to me, or I scavenged it when the other guy or NPC dies.]

So in further summary of what took place, we were sent to some hell hole defend against a hostile attack. Not even our host/name of the nation leader entirely knew what was going, and the RP was kinda like a sandbox so we learned to adapt. This RP had several other threads for other conflicts and all, and we had a lot of people periodically joining and leaving. All we knew was the inhabitants of this world was being roflstomped, so some of the best regiments were being sent in. Welp, we in comparison was horribly equipped. The battle with us partaking lasted like 7 or so years, and this I think was around 3 - 10 pages for a year. Around the 3 year mark is when we got nailed down to just me and barely any survivors.

Quite quickly when first going in after a few weeks, we noticed that our enemy was a bit beyond our job description. We were basically up against corrupt god-engines, and only our emplacements and the "tank guy" could actually do anything. So as the other players met similar fate as the original garrison, some of us tried regrouping and establishing better defensive positions. En route, the armored guy got obliterated. Either an ambush or a surprise attack. He took out some of them but ultimately died. We tried recovering each other's assets but was pretty minimal.

Eventually I got a hardened position but had to hold it myself, and some other units got merged with mine. We only had to hold long enough for the host to send reinforcements. My plan was a land giver technique. A series of defensive positions many miles apart of each other until ending up to what I'll nickname as the fortress. While taking out enemy infantry, and got a shot on some more prized assets, they pretty much steamrolled it. Through dice and adjustive planning, I was capable of recovering some, but mostly relocating heavier assets to the next position to build them up. I think also using underground tunnels I was capable of inflicting confusion for about 2 times.

At some point later they finally got to me, and I was clustered. Essentially there was no room left, so it was very easily to hit something even if they fired wildly. However they had less warlord and the other battle titan type at this point, but by god. I was capable of taking some of these larger priority targets out. By the end of it, reinforcements arrived but I was dwindled to about 3 - 40 troops. I held that line for at least 2 or more years alone. Because I was so wiped, my regiment was disbanded and merged into a new one. But I'd have to say that was fun. I reuse the number 66 in different things as a reference.

If I have to choose something more remembered, then the World of Tomorrow series on this site. It is one of the few left that I know that of that other people can access and see. Albeit some ooc fuckery was afoot, especially in the proper sequel. A multi-RP fight to reform my country and retake it's borders from a starting point in Glazov. Though for a more exotic set piece on another site no longer around, but I could test my skills and knowledge, it was a WWII roleplay.

in summary, I entered another RP using the host and general system mentioned earlier. I volunteered as part of the Imperial Japanese Navy as captain of the Kaga. Because of this, the host checked in with the GM and after figuring out how it works, promoted me in the 30s to also directly control all aircraft on board. But he kept modifying my carrier randomly. Rather than the host, I pretty much advocated for a certain attack on a certain spot, at a similar time. Results were 1% a bit more tame here though. Somehow, we were able to rescue Kaga, but far more was lost in '42 for it in a freak accident. But later mid-RP the host gave me control of a NPC that was in control of a smaller flotilla the host made for me. It was formed of an earlier "built"/converted shinano, and the Taihō.

I considered that my natural punishment because on travel rolls, as you had to wait a few posts or even a page to get to a certain distance away in the world, I might as well of been in command of the USS William D Porter. Tai' wouldn't stop hitting reefs and needing repairs, one time Kaga's flight elevator jammed, and Shin's the worst. Her engine periodically kept dying, at one point she hit a friendly escort destroyer, and worst of all, one of my rolls during mid-combat rearming resulted in a bomb rolling down the deck and somehow exploding towards the portside of the flight deck and killing five people. It was an absolute nightmare. This would calm down a tiny bit as time went on, but it got more elaborate.

In around June 9th 44, the host got me and another player out to sail towards Midway again, after a brutal submarine spam campaign. While we captured it, the bloody Yorktown Enterprise player yeeted me. Kaga got riddled worst. Hit by 2 torpedoes in the bow, the entire superstructure including bridge no longer existed, and while we kept using the hulk for three more runs and dragging it along with us, a dive bomber got a bomb right into the hanger and sank her. Shinano had a flight elevator be thrown violently in the sky, three torpedoes but only one hitting and ultimately Bismarcking her, and the center of the hanger was on fire for about an hour.

Soon after repairs, this would be the last battle. After being reequipped and a few days of being sent out, a fleet consisting of the more notable of the previously mentioned Enterprise, the W.D porter, and intrepid. Among a few others for "good measure" apparently. End result: Taihō got yeeted by William D Porter, and then thoroughly smited with all hands but one by a dive bomber's bomb getting through and igniting the whole thing. It got blasted in half. It's units riddled intrepid, and destroyed the Iowa.

Shinano was a bit luckier. It having been built earlier then converted in the necessary time, it took about ten torpedoes, three forward amidships, the rest on the bow. It destroyed the Intrepid, and smited Enterprise. As the latter destroyed my bridge and effectively killed my character, throwing the flight elevator overboard, and rattled it enough to break some pumps or budge parts out of place, and killing the engine, we in the end took each other out in the fierce five page fighting.

Their fleet retreated and leaderless, ours effectively non-existent. As Enterprise slowly sank and their player also struck out with no other character to use or make up even, Shinano was recovered. But the American host destroyed it "enough" in port in an air raid. While not sunken, it was too damaged to repair in time to use ever again for that war. But instead it was used as a port-based airfield for defense. Before we could tell what happens next, the American host and the other Japanese faction player bailed. So the RP died. I assume it would of been a white peace scenario, or someone surrenders.

We were pretty equal. When me and enterprise player fought our own battles, we obliterated the other guy. But it ended as a stalemate usually when we fought each other. It was the will of RNGesus that caused an exception. With barely any carriers left for both, Yamato off trolling the sea, the great American BBs hanging by a thread, but America having more destroyers and submarines, it might of relied upon who could breakthrough first. Overall, the USN had 100 vessels overall left, and Japan had 80. Albeit most of those actually capable of partaking in an engagement. 20 were minelayers, and USN had 15 minelayers, + 9 hospital ships converted from random bought sea/ocean liners. Arguably, if it was just the two host's 1 v 1ing even without a live battle scenario and they just did summary battles like what normally happens on some RPs here, neither were skilled nor competent enough to beat the other guy.

GG no re. [Since it is now 5, I will be taking my leave stop trying to edit this to a even smaller size. Excellent day to you.]
