The General Roleplay Discussion Thread!

[The SheoDovah]

TA2: To be fair, my only failure was Madgod's Realm and that was me being too inexperienced for the general idea of it. As for my other RP, it pretty much died before i could even run it despite it being simple. Or rather, twas my intention to run it as a simple RP that either happened to fail due to the begining of the RP drought or no-one likes waiting for a gladiator themed RP.

EDIT: On an unrelated note, would anyone be up for a Fighter's Guild RP? Whilst i would love to do a Mass Effect Rp, i can't do it due to my [&@%!] ISP blocking the ME wiki and i am not paying £2 to get the content lock removed. [&@%!].

Beta's analysis:
I have a 1/5 record... Most of mine failed due to lack of overarching planning and pretty much a horrible grasp upon the world.

..Actually I might do a bloodborne roleplay.. But I still have that borrowed roleplay to do. Hrm. Decisions.

[Ripcage]

TA2: that indeed is the case, though if you look at each DM's track record it's kinda hit and miss. I am 0/2 as far as my rps have gone

I'm still waiting on that Yultia prequel. I still even have the early draft of my character sheet.

:

Character Sheet

• Username: Ri'Zahr

~ Character Info ~

• Name: Sari
~ Aliases: Dian Cahaya
• Age: 823
• Gender: Female
• Race: Fiend
• Physical Appearance: Typical of a Fiend, Sari has a strange appearance. She has light blue skin, long white hair, and icy eyes. She also possesses golden horns and blue tattoos on her body.

Hidden:

• Personality: Sari is polite to the people around her. Her position on the council means that she is open minded and willing to listen to the opinion of others. However, she is secretive of own her thoughts and values her privacy. She is not quick to anger and prefers to handle situations without unnecessary violence.
• Background:
• Extra Details:

• Her element is Water.
• She is the ancestor of Batari.
• Sari is a noble within the House of Water and has a position on the Council.

GRDT: On the topic of hits and misses though, I have a pretty decent record of 0/1. TSC is missing because of my lack of consistency, I think. I have too many things I want to do and unfortunately DMing and writing take the most effort. I do enjoy creating the various aspects of my world, but at this rate my players will never uncover anything I create.

Would you want to be one of the ones considered as the next DM of TA2?

[BetaB17]

I still do not plan to DM, but are you interested in doing it alone, Beta....

Me, solo it? Hahahahahaha Wait, your serious? I can't even solo Halo 2 on Legendary >__<

As I've said, I'm fine offering aid to the Dm, plus some of the NPC's I don't even know how to direct.

[Hissien]

TA2: I'll do it.

[Alarra]

Cool, anyone else interested in possibly doing it?

[Thuro Pendragon]

I've actually gotten more into roleplaying in my absence, but have gotten tired of the people that I've been dealing with recently. Gonna give these another look.

TA2: To be fair, my only failure was Madgod's Realm and that was me being too inexperienced for the general idea of it.

I could save them as a file then email them to you if you wanted. Just have to give me the name of the pages you need.

[Unionhack]

TA2: If you're all willing to wait until the end of my semester, I could take up DM for TA2. I do this reluctantly and I don't really want much to do with the rest of of the site, but I don't feel like it'd be right to let TA2 die out without me doing something about it. I warn you though, I'm going to be moving it fast if I do.

Hi, by the way.

[BetaB17]

TA2: I'm split on that.. Union, you would be a grand DM. But I wouldn't dare ask of a task if reluctantly, rather prefer what time you do spend here to be a pleasant one

[The SheoDovah]

TA2: One of TA2's main appeals is the pace and if it were to go fast, i could see it easily burning out. I feel it would be best for you to enjoy your time here instead of you doing it because you feel that you have to, Union.

If by some luck and a lot of sacrifices of kittens that TA2 passes to me, i would be up for co-dming it with everyone's favourite Betapie.

Thuro, welcome back. It wouldn't really work for me as i would most likely get annoyed by having to have more then one window open or scrolling down etc.. However, i should have proper broadband in the next 3-4 months so acess to the ME wiki will be mine! (If i decide to do a ME RP).

[Unionhack]

TA2, @Beta: Any time I spend on TA2 would be time I would spend happily. Especially when school isn't in session.

@TLD: Obviously moving slowly hasn't helped a single RP on this site in ages, yet some of my fondest memories are of Vault 54 which garnered several pages in a day. I'm not saying a post every hour, but it needs to go faster. All RP's on this subforum do. The only ones I've seen 'burning out' are those that moved too slow.

[Alarra]

TA2: Velvet would like to discuss DMing with Hissien and Union: share some thoughts, discuss whether you might want to co-DM or decide on one or the other, whatever. You guys both have his email, so just send him a message whenever you'd like.
And let me know what you've decided so I can change ownership of the DM posts at the start.

[Alarra]

So, I was reading TV Tropes and came across a couple pages about roleplays, and that gave me an idea: anyone interested in a TA/TA2 trope page?

[BetaB17]

Do explain?

[The-Shadow-One]

She's suggesting we do a tv trope page for TA.. Which is an interesting idea on paper but.. in practice what would it entitle..

[Alarra]

@Beta: A page like this or this. Or any of the ones on this list. I'm an active Troper and have been noticing lots of tropes as the RP has been going on (for example, Lovable Coward = Sees-in-Shade, Would Hit A Girl = Arellius, Aborted Arc = Mars' plot being dropped, Nice Job Breaking It Hero = Sinyail's water-absorbing thing on the ship, etc), so I thought it might be fun.

@Shadow: Basically I'd create the page, add whatever I can think of, and if anyone else can think of examples to add then they can add them. It's just for fun to make and read.

[BetaB17]

GRDT: I'm full game for the idea, and may actually be comical and fun for the subforum to discuss/read. I am mildly curious what trope Alarra would cast Maurzol in(I suspect something brute/muscle head related)

Now is it to just my notice, or has TA/TA2 sort of been an enigma on the forums. It's been on the forums since 2011(PS, it's anniversary was 2 days ago), despite it's long run barely NO progress has been made, and yet as evident from it's first creation has caught the interests of many. I mean long before I joined >_> I tried to follow the story and over time I just had to say "[&@%!] it, I gotta be apart of this". I legitimately would be in disbelief if another 4 years later TA is still going strong, though honestly I wouldn't be surprised either, for it truly is legend made by a legend... wait

Mars, you gotta add this as a new addition to your signature: Tamrielic Adventures, a Legend made by a Legend

#TheLegendNeverDies

[Unionhack]

I would like doing that. It's a wonderful way of looking back and reminiscing for a bit!

[The SheoDovah]

TA2: Will i be able to create a new character? If not, i may turn into Kratos and brutually murder the entire roleplay.... oh, it's almost dead. Nevermind. Joking aside, i would be very sad if i could not continue in TA2

[BetaB17]

TA2: was your sheet already approved?

And in all likely hood, the rp will live on due to the still apparent interest.

Actually, when appropriate I wouldn't mind setting a 2nd sheet if it helped the activity level>_> he was planned as a possible replacement if Maurzol died/left.. though from the same source material as he, and I do have a mock example of him that was created for an unaffiliated reason with the subforum

[The SheoDovah]

TA2: No. Velvet's departure from TA2 was during the period where i was working on a character. However, the legendary Bearded Knight shall feature in TA2! (Beards not included)

[BetaB17]

TA2: is your sheet at least finished/balanced out?

[Unionhack]

TA2: I've yet to speak to Velvet, I think Hissien's on that. From what I understand we're gonna go ahead and co-DM it.

Which means, send me your sheet, TLD.

Also, I'm totally down for working on a TV Tropes article.

[BetaB17]

I'm curious to see how the Co-DMing will be, but it honestly will help balance the pressure once in order
