RPGN ver 8.1.14

[RPGN]

Special: Fresh Meat Fresh Faces Needed for RPGN!

Staff Recruiting

So we decided to beg up here for a reason...

The whole point of RPGN is to continually provide news about the Guild and recognition to players within our community, but it was built with the idea in mind that no one group of people should maintain control over RPGN if they were unable or unwilling to put in the work for it. To that end, we've maintained a revolving door for staff wherein new blood is always welcomed and those that didn't provide during the latest issue are let go without rancor. Of course, they're welcome back, but we don't do the dead weight thing.

For whatever reason, we're getting down to a handful of people doing this week in and out, and so it's time to ask for people to please step up. If you think you can contribute to the RPGN, you need to let us know, via PM, so we can cut you in the loop for the next issue.

At Large In the Guild

The Irregulars- Are a group of guild members who are working to improve their artwork under the guidance of Sherlock Holmes All skill levels are welcome to participate. Go check it out!

The Conversation:

Resolving Character Conflict: A look into non-tabletop engagement
Guild member Sarcor asks how to solve conflicts between player characters in a freeform RP setting where you can't turn to a simple dice roll to choose a victor.

Current and Cool

Roleplays on this list have already started (but may still be recruiting, please consult the GM) and also caught our attention; the hard work the GM and players put in to setting up the RP, writing their sheets and hashing out the details have paid off and now they're writing their in-character (IC) posts.

- Writing: Seeking Feedback/Constructive Criticism - EmyBear8913 has been working on creating an interesting spin off of a story of a vampire trying to live amongst humans. A fanfiction based off of Shinedown, it will be interesting to see how things will progress!

About RPGN

RPGN is produced by a volunteer staff of with the goal of bringing Guild members current and useful information about goings-on in our community. We are always accepting suggestions on categories and content. We're particularly interested in displaying people's artwork as a banner (and will fully credit it and link your gallery -- woo). For more information, feel free to PM RPGN.

Get Involved

Get Involved!

Do you make banners? Are you a circa-1995 big-haired news reporter with a 'SCOOP?' Here are some of the ways you can help with our next issue of RPGN:
- RPGN banners - Be creative, do what you want! Get exposure (we credit banners). Submissions should be 700x200px, please!
- Let us know if your RP has a birthday coming up or is successfully concluded -- We want to give credit to the committment that both players and GM are showing in keeping their RP's going strong in the long-term.
- Player Questions - A user-submitted question will be answered on the Guild News, with the hope that it will inspire a larger discussion. Submit your question today in the RPGN PM box!
- We are Recruiting Staff - If you wish to be involved in the next edition of the RPGN, please hit up the RPGN PM box! (Note: You will be cut into the loop for the issue after the upcoming one, so if you PM between today (date of current) and the next issue (date of next) you will be working on the issue after that (date of the one after next) The way the PM system works, we need to have who is doing the work set a couple weeks in advance. In the event of a large number of applicants, we will establish a queue for subsequent issues.)

It isn't that notable. Mostly just a bunch of old cyberpunk novels haphazardly mashed together. I'm using a magical plotbox, for chrissake.
Got some cool players, though.
