Okay, thank you for being the first person to actually tell me the truth. Now I will stop making RPs because I know it is something I cannot change about myself. Thank you again.
And as a side note:
It wasn't supposed to be very realistic and was supposed to be more of a gameish rp.

Dude, come on, don't go emo on us. I didn't mean you should stop making RPs because they will all suck forever. And you definitely shouldn't make decisions like that based on what some chick you don't even know told you on a TES message board. ;)

Maybe other people like "gamish" RPs too. Or maybe you can think of a plot that's more free and lets the players make more decisions. And about your writing style - I can easily imagine a story where that style would be appropriate, so that's not a bad thing. Also, the fact that you write like this now doesn't mean that you are incapable of writing any other way. The key is to write a lot, try different styles and sooner or later you're comfortable using many different "voices".

Anyone interested in a rp that's unorthodox (I hope) basically your in a world after a event that gave people powers but only some, a group of skilled power users have vanished and you need to find and stop their nemesis or find them, I will give you a list of powers you choose 3 you like and I'll randomise your power and pm you the results. So anyone interested?

I would want a very good back story and some training wheels DMs to help ya. No offence, Imp Khajiit, I love ya to death, but the main obstacle for you right now is simply your lack of experience. If you maybe PM some established RPers for RP ideas and co-DM assistance, I'm sure things will go smoother, and a lot more people will join.
Luck, Eltee!

Thanks, someone offered to look over my backround through PM. I was going to do so when it was finished.

Could anyone else volunteer to look it over, please?

I'll take a look, if you so wish it; I've hardly spoken with you, and so my lack of bias could be beneficial. Perhaps two reviewers is your preference, however- I wish not to come across as demanding.

So here is my idea for a roleplay-
Spoiler:
Setting: Skyrim, one year before the arrival of the dragons.

The story starts in the cave of Southfringe Sanctum, the (initial) players were part of an ill fated expedition, led on behalf of a necromancer posing as a noble. They were told that there were treasures and gold of amazing amounts in the cave, and the players are a diverse collection of mercenaries, priests, commoners, hunters, adventurers, young nobles, and all sorts of professions, and ideologies. In the cave they were ambushed by a cabal of necromancers, who used the undead to capture the caravan, and submit most of them to their perverted experiments. The survivors are the beginning players.

Several days into their captivity, the players are all bound and gagged in a corner of the cave.
When the necromancers are about to pick out the players for death, the unthinkable happens.

A figure in white ebony armor storms the cave, and with his skills, slays all of the necromancers and defeats all of the undead.

He frees all of the players and gives all the dead bodies proper funeral rites.

He tells them all that he is Sir Aranor, the last knight of the circle, and Hand of Arkay.
He explains that Arkay gave him a vision leading him to the place, and that the players are meant to aid him on a quest that god Arkay gave him, one that could change the fate of Tamriel. All the players accept, whether out of gratitude, to do good in the world, to make a name for themselves, to make a profit, or to gain power... The RP itself will start in the city of Falkreath, where Aranor will actually tell them what they are going to do.

I was just thinking of a rp for the 4th era, to just explore it a little more, maybe even show the tension of Skyrim before the stormcloak rebellion. It won't be a terribly large or deep roleplay, it will follow more of a clear-cut storyline, but if a roleplayer . Since this is the elder scrolls forum I would think that you guys would like a elder scrolls rp (or not, maybe im crazy)
Could you guys tell me if you would participate? If not, could you say why?
And note, i have participated in rps on other sites and stuff, but this is the first one I have actually come up with on my own.

Hm. I dunno. I am involved in a lotta RPs at the moment. But if it seems well thought out, sure.

So far I only have about 1/2 of the plot thought out (I wasn't sure if there would be enough interest) and I won't start it until after the holidays. But thank you for the feedback :)
