    I'm helping out Yagerbomb with a plot for a KOTOR RP. Hope you all take a look at it if it comes out.

    Count me in. Well, not entirely sure, it depends on the plot and all of course, but it's very intriguing.

    • So I've just recently watched a series of Movies again and am thinking of making an RP but first I want to know if anyone would be interested in a Lord of The Rings RP.

    Woah, many RPs about other things than Pokemon are being discussed here lately..

    But those things are just done, there's nothing more we could possibly add, imo 8l

    Honestly, I would be more interested in non Pokémon RPs. Not even other series themed, like why not universes that one has created?

    You guys should see the idea I have stored up though it's still developing...

    Well I've thought of something I call Aerial but I question how it would be received. And another thing that's kind of like medieval/steampunk. Which could be compared to howl's moving castle. I don't like it though.

    • I'd like to see a dark magical girl Roleplay. Dave had that Madoka Magica one, but not enough people joined ;; I mean he could've put in the storyline but I guess he wanted people who actually watched/read the series to join?

    Still, if anything I would like to see something like a Madoka RPG. Doesn't have to be Madoka exactly, it could be a made-up magical girl series altogether. And heck, it doesn't even have to be just magical girl; it could include magical boys!

    ...By the way, when I mean magical girl/boy, I don't mean something like the witches/wizards in Hogwarts. Wiki seems to have a decent explanation.

    Dude I'd really love to see more non-pokemon roleplays too.
    (This has nothing to do with the fact that I have ceased keeping up with the new generations... <v<;; >v>;; )

    Especially with the variety you guys are talking about, like a magical girl roleplay, LotR... Sounds like fun to me! >u<//

    All my tears the day we had to remove the Other Roleplay section because there just weren't enough non-pokemon roleplays to keep it. OTL

    I have everything but before I send the Rp in for approval, I would like to know if you'd rather the characters be only first years or any year?

    • I would go for any year. That gives it more diversity and stuff, and more options for classes. But have it be, like, not TOO old so that they have to graduate this year or anything. Maybe, like, first through third or something.

    Probably. It may just be invisible xD

    I like original RPs, I just hope that any original plotted RP has a plot that makes sense; because sometimes in the other forum I go to, the plots seem pretty basic, but when the RP actually starts, its all over the place and everyone is just out on a limbo. @___@

    Well, anyhow, shameless advertising, I made a RP here: http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=260078

    Isn't it a bit too close to Ye Pokebeast's Journeye? :/ If it isn't, I would like to say its pretty similar xD

    First years is the best option, because then it keeps the RPers on the same level.

    • I think for an HP one it would be easier to be a first year. Choosing any year would be a challenge. First and foremost, you'd have to expand your character's history section to include what happened the first x years they were at Hogwarts. What makes this harder is that there could be certain things that did happen in previous years that the GM may wish to hold back. Also, I don't think wizards/witches are allowed to transfer as new students or from one magical school to another, but I'm not entirely sure about that, which rules out that option. Finally, if you're any year besides first year, you'd probably have a group of friends or at least a good few, unless you're a social recluse or psychopath or something. It'd be hard to interact with first years, and you'd have a lot of NPCs on your hands.

    Idk. Just my own thoughts.

    I think I see what you're saying. Besides that, there will likely be tons of NPCs anyways with the length I want it to be. Thanks for the help guys, I think I made my choice.

    I go with the first year option. Like everyone said, you'd need go have an extensive backstory, buttloads of NPCs and plus, it would draw everyone too far away from eachother.

    • First year is also an easier start from what I can tell. Like everyone else more or less said, it is easier for the GM to establish a story/world and be creative, as the GM does not need to dance around the sign ups and backstories of the older characters. It is easier for the individual characters to mingle if they are all first years, instead of making up excuses for characters of different ages to interact.

    It just makes things easier. Also, Harry Potter fans that only read the first few books (like myself X___X) can join with limited knowledge of the series. For example, I could role-play up to a fourth year since I only read the first 4 books, so I really don't know the classes and perks that come with being a fifth year.
