Hey there, before I start anything I do want to say that it is definitely not mandatory to call me Triptophobinos (trip-toe-foe-by-nose) and that the nicknames Trip, Tripto, Binos, Phobi and so on work just as well as my actual username. Now I doubt this is the place to give my entire life story, so I won't, but I'll sure say that I am at least slightly familiar with this spot as I actually did have an old account that I can't seem to get rid of. I made it around half a decade ago though, so I felt incredibly disassociated to it. I've been doing a lot of Role-Playing on Discord, and frankly I do not recommend it. Sifting through trash to find a nugget of gold is the name of the game, there are good spots but don't hold your hopes too high. So I've effectively migrated here, I hope for warm welcomes.

It has been an incredibly long time since I had ever done a proper forum RP, do excuse me if I seem a bit air-headed with the nitty gritty in the site. I swear I'm a good listener! I just can't take too information at once.

Oh, another thing, if there are grammar mistakes or just generally weird lines, that is entirely my fault. It's around 1:40 in the morning as I post this and I'm feeling like spread butter. I hope my first impression wasn't horrible and I hope to play alongside you all.

Welcome to the Guild!

Welcome to the Guild, Trip!

I'm sure you'll get familiarity with our site soon enough just by having an explore. That being said, if you have any particular questions just reach out.

If you are a user of Discord, we have one! I'd love to see you in there -- we currently have a Halloween event happening, but there will also be an event thread springing up on the forum soon as well.

Hoping to see you around soon!

Welcome to the Guild, @Triptophobinos.

Discord Roleplayer here as well though I'm still struggling to adjust to the forum format. It works pretty well if you're patient though (which I'll admit that I'm certainly not). What do you generally prefer to write if you don't mind me asking? Also don't worry about grammar or formatting. We've seen much lazier introductions anyway.

Greetings.

I personally wouldn't recommend the official discord channel since it's a grade-A dumpster fire, but we're glad to have you around the forum!

I'd recommend clicking around some of the RPs in the various sections and seeing which level of writing you're most comfortable with. The section descriptions aren't as relevant as they used to be, so looking at the threads that are actually getting updated will give you a better idea of where each section stands. There's also a column of new checks and new RPs on the right side of the home page, they're always worth a click-through when they pop up.

Enjoy!

I'd be glad to drop what I prefer to write, and thanks for asking @Chuuya. It's listed in my bio that I pretty much exclusively do dark fantasy and science fiction but thinking on it I'm pretty sure I should probably elaborate on that here. When it comes to dark fantasy I absolutely love incredibly real and morbidly human types of stuff. I know that sounds a weird and might be a bit difficult to understand so an example would be Berserk, as in the manga. My favorite dark fantasy settings are probably the Souls series due to the hard atmosphere and vague lore. Sci-Fi is where things really branch off. I've done gritty futuristic synthwave type stuff but on the same end I've done out-of-this-world balls-to-the-wall Gurren Lagann type stuff. I am very open to trying new genres though, detective genres have been grabbing my eye and I've been meaning to try some more lovecraftian type stuff.

It's been a hot minute since I've run into any of that on the Guild, but some of it tends to pop up from time-to-time in Casual, Advanced, and even 1x1. Hopefully you're able to find what you're looking for and enjoy the time you spend on here. If you have any questions though, then please don't hesitate to drop me a DM. I'm usually around and happy to help. You can also visit this section for useful guides or this section for asking questions further as well. Hope to see you around.
