I've never roll-played in my entire time on this Earth...

So, I'm super scared, but I kinda wanna give this thing a fair go...

Anyone care to join me?

Or give any tips?

You can preview my most recent writing in almost any of my pets' profile stories...

Hello there!

I personally find that the best way to learn is through experience and I wouldn't mind trying to teach you or I can just give you some tips if you want. I think you're a fairly decent writer from what I've read on your pet profiles. :D

Here are a few common ground rules to get you started:

  • No God-Moding - this means that your character is all-powerful and can't be harmed or destroyed. You can't avoid every attack in real life and the same applies in a Rp. This can also mean that your character knows things that he / she hasn't learned in the Rp. Like let's say I was playing an assassin and my job was to kill you. You know this Out of Character, but you can't react to it in the Rp until you have legitimate cause.
  • No Power-playing - this means that you try your hardest to only control your own character(s). You wouldn't write what my character is doing or saying or anything like that. Some people (like me) don't mind if you control their character a little as long as you clear it with them beforehand.
  • No Mary Sues / Gary Stus - this is a character who is usually super pretty / handsome, good at sports, extremely intelligent, and basically has no flaws or weaknesses at all. In short, a 'perfect' character.
  • OoC - also known as Out of Character. This is when you and your partner decide things like what the Rp is going to be about, your characters, background information, and all of that good stuff. Sometimes you can just chat and get to know your partner better through OoC interaction as well. But remember anything you learn OoC about the Rp itself doesn't apply to the actual Rp.

That's really all I can think of at the moment so I hope some of this information helped and if you can think of any more questions or want to start a Rp then feel free to ping me back. :D

Sweet!

Thanks for the advice!

I wouldn't mind joining one or starting a role-play with you. :3

Sure we could Rp! What would you be comfortable doing? I noticed a lot of your pets have stories so we could do a Subeta-themed Rp or there's other options as well... like modern, fantasy... whatever you're interested in... I'm usually pretty easy-going.

Perhaps we could roll-play as one of our pet characters? :3

That would be cool.

I'm currently writing about Teaghan at the moment. :)

Sounds good to me. I have some ideas for TikTok who would be a factory worker or guard. Understood? has a story where she was frozen in the Polar Ice Fields and now roams around there as a spiritual guide to others who venture far too north, but I just haven't had the time to write it out the way I want to yet. I could probably think of some stories for my other pets too.

Would you be interested in playing them as pets or were you more interested in playing them as humans? And would you want to Rp here on the forums or through some other method like sMail, Email, etc.? I personally would like to avoid Subeta if that's possible. Subeta tends to crash my computer for whatever reason.

As humans for sure, I suck at writing about animals! xD

I'd prefer to role-play on the Subeta forums, if you wouldn't mind... :)

Well I really hate to say this, but I'm not sure if I can Rp here on Subeta. It just causes me to have too many issues and I'm not sure why; however, I can't afford these issues messing up my computer so I'm afraid that I'm going to have to decline the Rp. I'm sorry.

I really hope you can find someone who will help you out though.

Heya! I may be interested in doing a roleplay with you.

I'm a longtime roleplayer, but I haven't done it in a while, so I'm a little rusty ehehe.

You mentioned you wanted to play one of your pets as a human, but do you have any preferred settings or genres? I'd prefer to do a 1x1 over sMail, since I usually get too distracted in group roleplays...
