Chit-Chat: General Roleplay Discussion Thread "the RPD" (archived)

[Foxrally]

I've always been interested in the roleplay section, but haven't til just now thought to come here...well, I tried a year or two ago, but I just missed the last spot of the X-men RP which was a bit disappointing :(

Does anyone have any interest in doing another one?

An X-Men RP sounds interesting if well-managed. IMO if you're new to the RPC try and get some advice from other GMs like GP, SV, adventure or Pkmn Trainer Yellow before posting. There's a character I made five or six years back which I'd be interested in getting back in action.

Guys, I don't think he meant he was going to make one but was asking if any one here was willing to make a new one c':

If he did mean he was going to make one then ignore the above ^

Thanks for the feedback everyone.

Yeah, it wouldn't really be ideal for me to be a GM given my lack of RP experience. Though, I have a few suggestions if anyone is willing to manage a x-men/avengers/superhuman type RP. First off, there is a really detailed hero creator, HeroMachine3 for avatars. (I'd also be able to assist those who are not familiar with the creator in making their character with an accepted sign-up.)

I'm all for a super power game, if we can get it up and running, then keep it going. My advice is that it would need to be a team based game. Solo superheroes don't last very long, I've noticed. And we'd need a flexible GM who could find something for everyone, considering the various powers such teams include. (Not me, though. I was a GM once, and it went so poorly I decided not to do it again.)

I recently had the weirdest dream ever where there was a new RP that came out an the SU asked for "testicle size (cm)"

I am not even goddamn joking I swear to god that's what it said

Go home Foxrally you're drunk.

Now about my new sign-up template...

That rp would never get approved by me.

Unles they ask for menstrual cycle length as well. The RPC stands up for gender equality.

ANYWHO I feel we got completely off track here, gdi random foxrallyness. Do you guys have much freetime on your hands now or is it exam times? I think it's exam times in my country for most people (except for me who have finished all my courses a year ago, bahaa!)

 

[Foxrally]

I've had lots of free time recently as my exams just finished and since I take very few subjects while everyone has 2 weeks of school left I'm here chilling :D Then right after there's spring break which is awesome :D

Every guy in the RP suddenly has a size of half a meter

I was actually planning of making this a section...

You sir need to eat less sugar before going to sleep.

 

[GreyBidoof]

Going back to the idea of a superhero/superhuman RP, would there be anyone else interested in co-GMing something of the sort? I have actually been working on a concept similar to the ones mentioned, but don't have nearly enough time to run it alone.

Hahah, it was actually inspired by TheBringerOfLife's recent RP - this was the SU sheet:

Name:
Appearance:
Age: (For the purposes of this RP all characters must be at least 17.)
Gender:
Height:
Weight
Likes:
Dislikes:
Sexual Orientation:
Blood Type:
Personality:
Bio:
Skills:

I thought the height/weight and sexual orientation fields were pretty weird and overly accurate to have, and it's probably what fueled that dream. Judging from the story Blood type may or may not be relevant.

 

[Mana1]

Gotta admit Blood Type is pretty specific. At least its kind of relevant to that RP though.

By all means make it your mission to write an RP where testes size is relevant :P.

How about for the purpose to sword fight?

Ahem... sorry there are probably children here. I'll stop now. My deepest apologies.

Anyway, I'm pretty curious now why blood type was so accurate to the RP?

 

[Turnip]

For some reason I imagine some kind of RP revolving around specialist butchers, banding together (or against one another) to quest for the strangest somewhat-edible meat products in the world. It could well be an episodic RP, focusing on different quests at each time - the first, of course, the one to start it all, would be something to do with aforementioned testes. It could be called 'Team Meat' or something, so that everyone would join because of the fantastic anagram.

So who's GMing?

I'd love to join and I'd actually love to GM one as well... But I really shouldn't since I'm already GMing two RPs :/ Know thy limits, you know.

'Team Meat'

/falls off chair

I'm in.

Trust me, I know what you mean. But seriously, if anybody else is interested, shoot me a PM or something.

Do you have any idea how tempted I am to actually make that an RP right about now?
You sire, deserve a medal. Or because I'm cheap, a meatball.

When you think about it, I did come up with this whole butcher quest Team Meat idea. All things considered I'd probably prefer a meatball.

Jesus Jesus Jesus, people are actually talking about me and something I do?
>Squee!

No, but as the creator, I can probably answer this question the best, blood type is relevant so I can know, personally, which characters would be normal, which are immune, and which are immune doners.
Normals are anyone besides O-s and AB-s, immunes are AB-s, and immune doners are O-s.
I asked for sexual orientation so I can secretly build romantic subplots between the characters that exist. To be truthful, this RP isn't as action packed as one may expect from a zombie rp, it's more based on the relationships and tensions between the characters.
I have another one I'll probably break out soon, if No Remorse doesn't go over well. I would have broke the other one out first if I was aware Outbreak was a thing before I created it.
Alas, I'm not going to give up on it now that it exists. c:

 

[Dansparce]

Hey, just wanted to know if there was any interest in a Fire Emblem RP? I have a very rough draft for one (basic plot, class list and a few other things), but plan on completing it sometime soon.

And due to not currently being in any Roleplays at the moment, I might as well make my own. Besides, I need to learn how to GM anyway.

So yeah, any interest?
