The General Roleplay Discussion Thread!

[MARS]

Yeah, I probably should've asked first.

TA2 NEWS Cont.

Right (I suppose).

I'll be taking over TA2 from Mars. I need to know then who's still interested in continuing with me - which includes users who might have PMd Mars at some stage looking to join, they'll pass on your sheets. I can't promise the plot will be the same - actually, I'll probably be shaking it up a bit - but I can guarantee the central idea will remain: that is, you'll be adventurers, doing what adventurers normally do, which is, broadly speaking, adventuring.

I should add that this is a great time to switch out to a new character or sign up as a new character. PM me if you're intending to do either. And Arellius will remain for now, because I haven't dragged him along the whole RP just to drop him when the potential for interesting interaction arises.

[Alarra]

TA2.5

As I've said before, I'm keeping Niralie, and I'm very glad that the RP is continuing!
(For anyone curious, we can keep the same thread without starting a new one; it's just a matter of changing who the poster is so that Velvet can edit the first post. It's not a reboot, it's just continuing.)

[Unionhack]

I'm still in. Up for whatever comes. Good on you, MARS, for keeping it going despite everything.

[VirtualWeasel]

FOT: Weasel, is there a certain way magic is preformed or is it up to us to decide how we portray it? Just curious.

With your hands.
But really, fire is fire. It stems from creating heat with the body to ignite the oxygen in the air and create fire. Directly imposing heat on specific objects is a later-learned thing.
But, that's fire. Other stuff works in different ways. Either way though, fire is pretty standard stuff, I figure you'd be able to gauge how powerful you'd be at this point. Obviously you can't create an all-engorging blaze, but you are capable of putting out plenty of mid/low-heat, steady flames.

I've never joined anyone else's roleplays cause I've never found them interesting, and I can't just join anything when I don't like the setting or the storyline or the background information. I know plenty of people join ''just because'' or because of ''character interaction'', but I'm always aiming for the whole roundup of qualities; a good setting, a good plot, a good background, and a reasonable number of good players. My only course of action is to make something of my own; something which I can enjoy and hopefully which everyone else could too.

But this will not work. No, people here will only join a roleplay with someone they've RPed with before, and unfortunately at the rate we're going at and with the type of RPs that are currently popular here (not to mention the future planned ones I've heard about) I don't imagine I'll be joining anything to let you get to know my RPing. So I'm sorry, but I can only ask that you give my one a shot so maybe we could both enjoy it.

Thank you, phil, it's always nice to be reminded what superior taste you have.

[The SheoDovah]

TA2:I'm in and i do find myself wondering what you'll do with it, Velvet. I hope you do throw in some TES politics.

Dragon Age RP: Anyone interested? If so, i'll start work on the DA idea i posted in the idea thread during the weekend.

[Baloth-Kul]

DA RP: Dovah, I highly recommend you look over Union's old DA RPs for reference

[The SheoDovah]

DA RP: Shall do. I'm just planning to do a Grey Warden focused RP set after Awakening as it is perfect for me and hopefully, will be enjoyable for everyone unless the dog steals everyone's pants.

I'd be perfectly willing to join your RP if I had the time and the drive, but frankly at the moment I just don't think it would be a good idea for me to join any new RPs. I mean, I've hardly even been updating my own that I'm running! SotP does look interesting, and I'm sure you would have at least a few more people if it weren't for the whole forum slowdown. So don't give up hope in your own appeal as a DM; you've just posted your RP at a bad time. Leave your thread up for now, post here every once in a while to remind people that it's open to new players, and eventually you'll get people. Maybe even me if I start frequenting the forum more often again!

[Velvet LeChance]

TA2

I could start this up this evening if people want - i.e., how are you doing Mars?

edit: permission accomplished.

[Alarra]

TA2
And Velvet is officially now the thread owner.

[MARS]

This feels so weird.

[CBR JGWRR]

I'll roll with it. Surprised I am, but well it will still work out.

[Velvet LeChance]

TA2: The impact of skooma withdrawal is probably be exaggerated here a tad. But since it's Psyfalia I find myself not caring.

[The SheoDovah]

TA2: One can never go over the top with Skooma. It'll be interesting to see what will happen and how those below deck will get out of it. Psyfalia is pretty much screwed if no-one helps due to her not really being able to walk.

FE:What is it with me and wanting to set fire to cities? :O

[Ripcage]

This feels so weird.

Returning to this feels even weirder, I'll bet.

GRDT: Also, hi.

[Velvet LeChance]

GRDT: Hi Rippi!

[The-Shadow-One]

GRDT: OH HELLO RIPPI

[Unionhack]

GRDT: RIPPEHHHH!

[Imp]

GRDT: Hello world!

I doubt anyone remembers me... but, if they do, hi!

I just wanted to say I stopped coming on here for awhile and I want to start again... so I'll probably be on here somewhat-regularly again if anyone remembers me! (I originally stopped because I got angry at people for things that were my fault... if anyone was curious... but I'm more mature now! Maybe! In a way! So... hi!

[Ripcage]

GRDT: Hi Rippi!

GRDT: OH HELLO RIPPI

GRDT: RIPPEHHHH!

GRDT: I was noticed~.
A-hem, anyway.

TSC: My players are probably no longer interested in this due to the severe lack of consistency I've had in posting. No excuses from me; I know I'm a [&@%!] DM. But whatever. I'm working on a post for this anyway, mainly to see how many respond. Along with that, I've put up a poll concerning the future of this RP. So yeah, I'd like the players who're still present on the RP forum to place a vote. If no one votes or replies to my post then the RP will obviously be shut down.

RWoN: Did Justice ever return to posting here? Is this still even going? Has Dove's character died once more? I'm so lost.

A little announcement for any new RPs: Moderator approval is no longer required to create a new RP. If you're unsure about one, you can always feel free to PM us, but now you can post threads without requiring permission/approval to start it.

GRDT: Will this rule be put back in place when things pick back up? I can potentially see this not going too well during times like the summer. Then again, I guess things never get too busy.

[VirtualWeasel]

GRDT: Hello world!

Ohey, good to see you.

[The-Shadow-One]

Ohai Imp!

RWoN:
Well Justice never came back, but I've been in contact with him for a while. Heeees probaby coming back I think? Dove's character is still alive.

TSC:I'm still in wit ya Rippi.

[Ripcage]

RWoN:

TSC:I'm still in wit ya Rippi.

RWoN: Hm, alrighty. Dove's character has lasted longer than I anticipated. Any way I could jump in and fix that?

TSC: Good to hear! I can totally carry an RP on with just one player, because hell, I've technically done it before. (Edit: Hissi's still around, yeah?)

[The-Shadow-One]

TSC: Hey I managed to get TNG through with only two. So Yeah good luck,

RwoN: PM me about that. I could make you one of the carney folks.
