Topic: Role Play Thread

OK. So since my last role play thread didn't go too well (0 replies) I'll try again.

You've got to make a character (a pokemon) for yourself using this:

Nickname (optional):
Species:
Level:
Moveset:
Personality:
Other info:

Then type a short story for your character. You can just make a character and not make a story if you want! If you don't have a nickname, just put N/A

My character:

Nickname: N/A
Species: Dragonite
Level: 75
Moveset: dragon rage, hyper beam, dragon pulse, fly
Personality: friendly
Other info: loves malteasers!

theres no plot, the form needs work, and thus there's nothing to reply to.

You do know I am a total noob with role play?

The role play thread I made that got no replies had a plot, but this one that doesn't have a plot gets replies? Why is everything so backwards???

Since I suck so much, OK.

Personally my suggestion would be to participate in someone elses rp before trying to start your own. Itd give you a good chance to see how things are typically done, and itd be a good chance for you to practice your writing too.

I would, but I'm worried I'd post the wrong thing or something, then everyone would be nasty about it!

[The Hooded Trainer]

Nah, i doubt thatd happen. Its kinda difficult to go wrong in rps, as long as you know the basic rules. Id suggest checking out the role play faq topic here, its probably a good place to start.

Haha, I worry about that with literally every post I make on my rp blog.
There is no such thing as 'wrong' in role play, as long as you follow the rules. So don't worry about it, just make sure you follow the rules and you're good to go!

Whatever I post in rp will probably suck!

[The Hooded Trainer]

You want to know the truth? It probably will. I mean, correct me if im wrong, youve only really written animations before now, right? So if you try writing prose, itll probably suck, because no one is good at writing when they first start. Literally no one. Hell, i could show you some of the stuff i wrote when i was first starting out, but id probably cringe myself to death. The point is that when you first start doing anything, youre going to suck, and the only way to get better at it is to keep doing it. Imho, thats what separates the good writers from the bad ones - the good writers are just bad writers who didnt stop.

I guess what im trying to say is that sometimes youve just got to go for these things and dont worry too much about how well youre doing it. Besides, from what ive seen, this is generally a safe, friendly community - no ones going to be nasty to you just because youre just starting out. If you feel you need help with something, well be there to give it to you.

I was talking about sucking to the point of people wondering to themselves "wtf is he doing posting in a rp thread???" but I guess I could try....

But if it sucks, don't say I  didn't warn you!

no, that's not quite right
