Greetings! Candy Cane Service!

If I want to send multiple candy canes, can I send one message with all of the recipients and their messages or does it need to be individual?

How come there are so few Table Top Roleplayers here?

<Snipped quote by nightmare medx>

Slight off topic but what is RPoL? I've heard of RPG, RPN, RPA, Iwaku, etc. but never RPoL.

@Kuro

It's another RPG site. It went live in 2000 and while it has a sizeable player base, it's never been one of the super well known sites at least from what I've seen. It was my first real RPG site after starting out on the Neopets forums!

How come there are so few Table Top Roleplayers here?

Sir this is a Wendys.

I think there are plenty of people here who enjoy tabletop, we just do it on different sites like roll 20 or RPOL that are designed for that.

@Penny

Omg I never thought I'd see RPoL mentioned

I second what a lot of other people are saying: Roleplayer Guild isn't the best site for most tabletop games. It's doable, but RPGuild isn't designed for the sheer amount of paperwork many tabletop games require.

I'm also picky about my tabletop games. I've been following the same GM around on this one site for the last decade or so because it can be very hit or miss, just like with any RP, but tabletop games I find require a lot more effort just to get started so I want a decently sure bet.

1x1 updated for September. Currently feeling like something supernatural, but I'm not picky

The Rundown

• I run the gamut from "free" to "advanced". Normally I fall somewhere in the middle, but I tend to write shorter posts the more dialogue driven a particular story is.
• I can usually post a minimum once a day, but depending on the story, I’ve done multiple posts a day, or had months between posts.
• I love character driven stories and am fine with starting with just characters and a rough idea of where we're going; if you'd like to go more in depth please let me know.
• I generally play female characters as my main, but I have no preference for what your character is.
• I usually tend towards darker stories, but it depends on the characters and situations.
• As an adult, I enjoy mature/18+ situations and themes if they come up. They are not the only thing I’m here to RP, so no worries if you don’t.
• I am quite flexible in general, so if you have something that's vaguely similar to something I have in here, or you think based on what I have listed here I might like it, let me know!
• PM me if you’re interested.
• That being said- I am down to role play in the forums or through PMs, whatever your preference. Just let me know!

Story Ideas

current cravings

I want to play the strong-confident-woman-type opposite a complete alpha-male-(werewolf if you're into supernatural things, but I can settle). I'm seeing this as more light hearted than dark and gritty; I had a story started previously on another site where we were going for a sort of Men in Black investigative flavour, but I'm open to ideas. There are a couple of ideas below that might mesh well with this.

the latest and greatest

Lucifer or Supernatural inspired

I’d like to do a story in a similar universe to one of the aforementioned shows. I’ve watched all of Lucifer, but I’m only passingly familiar with Supernatural.

supernatural crime squad

I want to do some kind of supernatural investigation thing. My character's power? Curse proof! That box that grants wishes and takes a blood price for it? It won't work for her. That video where you die in 7 days after watching? Won't work, either. As such, she ends up doing a lot of work with cursed objects.

Reflection in the Mirror

A woman keeps her deranged alter ego safely locked in the mirror. I’m thinking maybe some kind of super/anti-hero tale, but I really don’t have much to go on for this idea.

and the rest in alphabetical order

Altered Carbon or Lost in Space

I've been watching both series and love them; I'd love to do something set in space post apocalypse.

The Bodyguard 18+

I'm thinking some kind of action adventure kind of thing. The heir to something needs protection, perhaps a kidnapping scare, etc. Who knows?

The Bright

I really enjoyed this film and would love to try a story set in the world. We can discuss what exactly should happen in it, whether more actiony or dramatic, etc.

Godzilla inspired

Saw the trailer for the upcoming Godzilla/big monster film. There was a line in there about needing to figure out which monsters are friends and which are foe which intrigued me. Maybe our characters are a couple people (could be military, could be ordinary people, lots of options here) end up being "adopted" by a good monster to help them in this new disaster/apocalyptic world.

Rise of the Guardians (film)

I loved the film and would love to do a continuation- maybe Pitch comes back, maybe something WORSE than Pitch comes along...?”

Systems/Settings

• Deadlands
• Deadlands: Reloaded

• Dead Space
• Marvel
• Resident Evil

Resident Evil: ? (Working Title)

I’m fine with dice :)

Resident Evil: ? (Working Title)

I’m always down for Resident Evil

God of dealing with people’s crap

How do YOU do 1x1s?

I love collaborations in general, so I very much tend to the player/player kind of style. I usually have SOME idea of where the story is going to go- not necessarily an end point, but a goal for the characters to work towards at the start. Both of us contribute plot points, characters, etc.

Sometimes there’s a lot of discussion beforehand, sometimes there’s not. During the stories there is always OOC discussion (in a separate thread) as to where we’re going.

The biggest thing is finding partners that I mesh with, I think.

Looking for a (m) werewolf

I want to play the strong, confident-in-her-role-in-life woman thrown into a situation involving the alpha male werewolf and now all of a sudden she isn’t so sure anymore.

I know it’s not a lot to go on, but if this sparks any ideas, PM me!

Anyone up for a game of Mafia? (How to Get Away With Murder Edition)
