Questions

I'm very interested in getting into a rp. I want to start small but sadly I've come down with a pretty nasty fever so it might be a couple days until i can join one. But its a good time since im new to forums in general just to ask for some help on how to join or start a rp. My wife and brother are also showing interest in joining but they want to know how everything works. They have ran some ironsworn campaigns with me but we are wanting something either light or detailed. Sorry if this post was long just didn't want to leave anything out before i passed out again.

@Zeriander

If you want to make a roleplay, you'll first want to make an interest check in on the check categories. Think of it like a brief, setting guidelines, outlining the planned concept, etc. for the roleplay in question. Then you wait to see who shows interest in joining until you've a sizable group to your liking and move on to posting a roleplay thread wherein the interested parties can create characters for you to look over and approve. Once everyone is settled, you can start roleplaying/writing posts.

If you plan on joining, then look for an active interest check or potentially the OOC of an on-going thread. On-going threads have labels (full, jump-in, apply) that tell you if they are or how they're accepting players. If spots are open, take the character sheet they've made for you and write up your character for their/GM approval (preferably in the OOC tab, people tend to keep only accepted sheets in the CS tab). If the GM(s) accept you, then you can hop right in to writing a post.

Also, since you mentioned that you enjoy TTRPGs/tabletop campaigns, we do have this handy little thing:

roleplayerguild.com/campaigns

It's located on the main page of the forum. The dice roller is rather basic, though, so don't expect it to count Degrees of Successes or any other fancy dice rules that some tabletop systems have.

How high can we count before a mod gets involved?

Kali nodded at Isaac. They needed to get out of town as soon as possible. The streets were bound to fill with traffic from evacuees, and who knew what dangers awaited them out there. However, when Gladys decided she'd rather stay, Kali felt conflicted. Their apartments may be safe for now, but ignoring the evacuation order, Kali believed, was unwise. What if another one of those crazies, like the kid from before, showed up at her doorstep? There wouldn't be anyone able to help her, and the thought of it churned Kali's stomach. Staying together as a group had to be the smarter play. After all, safety in numbers, right?

And yet, Kali felt she couldn't force the issue. Gladys didn't want to leave her husband behind. It wasn't Kali's place to decide what was right for her neighbor, and she had to accept Gladys' decision even if she disagreed with it.

"I'll leave the key for you when we leave." Kali told Gladys, as she handed Isaac her husband's old rifle. The weapon was daunting, especially for someone who had never fired a firearm before, and Kali could only hope they would have no need for it. "Take whatever you need, alright? It's the least Liana and I can do for you."

possibly interested! eyeing the main thread atm. might not be able to keep up tho >.< the posts I see are pretty long.. totally into it tho! i mainly skimmed the lore n stuff, but might pop out a character for it, where to submit them for approval? @Carlyle

/edit: also what elements are there? what like earth, fire, water, air, nature, etc or?

@leopard wcue

Well, it's a casual RP. The posts are going to have some meat to them.

Character sheets are to be submitted in the OOC. Anything submitted in the CS tab will be considered null and void.

The elements are anything to do with nature, more or less. We've got people from lightning and fire all the way to fungi and salt.

I have a couple questions. First off, what time of year is it? Secondly, does the school require uniforms? @Carlyle

I've decided to go with my electrical boy, Johnathan. Working on the character sheet now. ^.^

@shylarah

Fall, probably around august and september where most American schools start.

And yes, they have uniforms. It consists of a white/cream blazer with gray undertones, red tie, black sweater vest with white edging, a plain white dress shirt (to go under the vest), dress shoes (black or brown). They have a choice of either skirts or dress pants (which match the sweater vest in color) no matter what gender. Skirts come with black stockings because New York is cold AF at times.

Alright. I've posted an interest check/recruitment post as I've discussed on Discord.

For new players, depending on how many applications I get in the next few days will decide whether or not this will be first come, first serve or deadline-based. There was an unexpected amount of applications when the RP first started, so I'm going to leave it on the table in regards to potential interest.

Primality [looking for new players]

Hey everyone. This is a player recruitment post for an ongoing RP. We've had a few players drop, so I wanted to put the word out that I'm looking for some more people to fill their place as we're not that far in and I'd like to have the full intended cast rather than 2/3rds of what I planned to have.

It's a magic-esque school RP, so if you're interested in that sort of thing, the link is below:

@Aeolian Again, like I said with Ti, I'm sorry to see you go. We'll miss your banners and other art.

As for everyone else, I'm finally making use of the CS tab. Still need to finish Sarah's sheet, but I've had a rough start to 2025 lol

Ever since her primalist awakening, Sarah has undergone drastic changes to her appearance.

The blonde, blue-eyed girl has thrown away any idealization her parents had forced upon her. She has taken a pair of scissors to the hair her parents forced her to grow out, and has left a messy, boyish mop on top of her head. Her wardrobe has also gained personal freedom, and no longer consists of the opinions of rich, uptight fashionistas, instead opting for more casual, everyman wear. Sarah is done with people telling her how she should look; even if it means showcasing the now-permanent Lichtenberg figure that runs down most of her body to the world.

Sarah Jean, or as she prefers, "just Sarah", is the daughter of affluent politicians in the deep south of the United States. Her family had lived more lavish than those they represented, although Sarah had been unaware of it at the time.
