I am re-booting my first RP I ever created here on PC. It's about Reapers and Demons and stuff with a little bit of a twist, so if you are into that be sure to check it out. I am not going to give away too much, mainly because then I will pretty much be revealing the plot behind the RP. Hopefully it gets accepted.

On a side note: Pokemon Revelations is still accepting SUs. If you like Pokemon with a little bit of a fantasy element spilled in, then I promise you will like it.

O.O Is it the one I think it is? And if it is can I use the same character as before? Because if so I am SO IN!
"Ever looking forward, ever thinking back. Everywhere you've been, everyone you've met was another step on your path, shaping your future even as they become part of your past. One must never discount the pieces that have made up your journey until now but to lose yourself in them would be equally great folly, instead let them hoist you up, carry you on until you find the strength to walk for yourself. So it is that I continue towards that endless horizon. Ever thinking back, ever marching forward, inexorable as the history that brought me down this road. This Lonesome Road."

So i was thinking... Why hasnt started an rp based on greek mythology and what not? It seems like the perfect set up for an rp. (There might already be so if there is feel free to correct me)

Apollo ;) That would be cool, it could be based around intrigues and relationships and mystery rather than battle, maybe?

Actually there was one RP by SylveonStar. Yeah, totally not a snob.

I'd like that idea quite a lot. Maybe a mission kind of set up?

That was more rooted in the Percy Jackson series than having to do with Greek mythology itself.

Well, The Odyssey is a Greek epic, and there was Pokemon Odyssey, but I'm thinking your talking RPs with people not Pokemon right?

It could be interesting; characters could be "heroes" and the GMs could control the Gods and how they influence the story.

hello everyone! I thought I'd introduce myself here~

I haven't RPed in years but I used to be a very dedicated RPer... over the years though, I couldn't really find people to RP with so I gradually stopped and just went to writing my own stories.

RPing can be very fun though! I especially love making my characters have some sort of relation to dragons.

are there are any Fantasy-type roleplays around I could possibly join in? warning though, I'm a bit rusty when it comes to RPing but I think I'd be okay since I do write quite often. C:

I'd love to be a part of some RP, so yeah!! just let me know if you have a Fantasy-themed RP i could possibly join into~ feel free to leave a post on my page or something, I'll be checking back here too!

nice to meet you all!

Hey Yukiyo, nice to have you here.

If you are looking for fantasy-esque RPs I suggest maybe checking Adventurers in Training. It's pretty much a dungeons and Dragons RP if you are into that kind of stuff.

There's also my own RP, Pokemon Revelations, but I doubt it's what you are looking for, even though it does have that 'fantasy' element.

ahh I don't really know much about dungeons and dragons ;~; aren't dragons usually the bad guys in those? haha, though I suppose I could be different c:

what is your RP about? ^^ do you RP as a Pokemon, a trainer, or both? what is the story so far?

If you want to know more about a particular RP that is already up, it's probably easier if you find the OOC and IC threads for it and read yourself :3 The OOC threads can be found in te Roleplay Lounge.

thanks Chibi C:

and yeah, he showed me his OOC thread and I went and found the IC thread as well. as I said before, I haven't RPed in quite some time so I had no idea where to look for this stuff, or what to look for xD he was kind enough to show me around!

looking forward to more great discussion here, I'll be on the lookout for other Fantasy RPs mentioned here in this thread c: (you could say I'm a little shy I guess, since I'd rather have someone mention or invite me to an RP instead of randomly join one lol - I'd like to RP with a person/people I already kinda know)

Don't worry, people here are as helpful as they come :) And do check out Adventurers in Training, as mentioned earlier. That sounds like it should be right up your sleeve.

Someone called the fantasy geek? xD Story based is definitely better. Greek mythology heavily talks about the gods' caprices and lots of philosophy and the supernatural, so a story with great lore would better entail such a theme. Sandbox isn't that bad on the other hand, but most Greek mythology stuff are about wars, quests, etc. //Avid fantasy bibliophile if you couldn't already tell.

As for the second question, I've not much to add but a WW2 setting seems pretty interesting to me. //History student here XD

o_O WAT. I didn't even shamelessly advertise or anything, this is craaazzyy! I mean, uh, not recently, anyway... Still, thanks guys!

@Yukiyo Kayume - Hello and welcome! I wouldn't worry much about not having background information. I mean, it helps, but most RPs here are designed so that people can still join in and play without knowing anything beforehand. But certainly, if you're looking for a fantasy RP, AiT would fit the bill. I'll send a PM your way. Eheh, just so it's clear, GM of Adventurers in Training here :P

First of all, welcome! I do hope you're able to find RPs here that you enjoy~

On that note, there are a couple fantasy RPs about, though the only one I've really taken time to look at is Adventurers in Training. Also, I will be making my own fantasy within the next couple of weeks, and it just so happens that it centers around humans who have bonds with dragons.

How do you join an rp and how do they exactly work
Hi Garison! You will find the basics here: The Rules [New Players, Click Here!]

You can check the Roleplay Library or the Check to See if Your Roleplay has been Accepted (v.2) threads to find a RP to your liking, or just browse the Roleplay Lounge and read the opening posts and see if there are spots open. Or you can create your own RP, but it's generally recommended that you join a few here first to get a feeling for how we do things on PC's RP Corner :3

If you have any further questions, you can VM me or the resident mods Skymin and Magic, or just post here again since most RPers here are really eager to help out!

@Garison - Just to add a little bit to what Red's said, and hopefully to answer a bit more of the "how they work" part of your question; I tend to look at it like collaboratively writing a story. Each person has a character (or characters in some cases) that they control - whose part of the plot they are responsible for - and writes for that character so that the end product is that everyone's efforts with their own character blend together to become a single story of sorts. Perhaps that isn't the best way of explaining things but that's how I look at it anyway, you'll pick it up pretty quick just by taking a look at the active RPs.

Which gives me an idea for another question (everybody groans collectively here).

How exactly do you look at RPing like this? Do you view it in a similar way to me, or do you have your own unique outlook?


Oh yeah, and before I forget. I'm bringing out a new RP really soon (It has begun once more! Maybe.)

Haha, gimmepie, you'll always be the GM who juggles the most RPs, won't you? :3

I agree with you on how RPing works here, btw. It can of course differ a bit from RP to RP, but in general that's how I view what we create here. That's kind of why one-liners and script style isn't allowed here, I suppose; it gives the story less flow. If you want to do that stuff, you're probably better off RPing over a chat client or something.

In other news, the Roleplay Library is updated. Quite few new RPs over the last month. Hopefully that means there are a lot of active ones already!

New This Month - the RPs that have been accepted by the mod since roughly one month back.

I look at it in the same way you do. Those are pretty much the exact words I use when I try to describe RPing to people I know XD

Generally I look at it the same way [and that's how I have to explain it to everyone who immediately thinks that roleplaying = LARPing; nothing against it but that's not what I do D;] as well as a bit differently. I look at it sort of the same way Durarara[!!!] is put together, where you start out with a bunch of little stories that eventually fuse into one huge one. I say that because usually at the start of a roleplay each player is isolated or not really connected to one another besides what the plot forces them to be [unless you have a JP for your first post, among other exceptions] but later on all the characters begin to mesh together and interact to the point where it becomes one big story.
