Hello everypony!

[Nille171]

Hello!! My name is Nichlas  Im from Denmark so my english isn't the best 

hello and welcome I hope you can join our Thread Games and maybe Roleplay

What roleplay? 

Any of the role-playing games on the forum   I have two games open, Pony Cosmology for if you like playing as a "god", and Sweet and Elite if you like playing as a "villain" or "noble".

There's also Zaner's Roleplay, Sonya's Roleplay, and others too

But how does it work? 

I dont understand

I dont understand 

Ah, I see.  Ok, here it goes:

Roleplaying, or RPing, is kind of improvisational storytelling, with each player pretending, or "playing", as a particular Original Character, or OC.  Usually RP is centered around dialogue between several characters, and doesn't move around very much "in-game".

And example of RP would be like this:

Poster: Feather walked into the town square, shyly looking around and waiting for his friend to come by.
Replier: A green-coated mare with brown eyes and mane trots up and says, "Hiya!  Are you new here?"
Poster: "Um, sort of... could you show me around?"
Replier: "Sure!"

and so on, ad infinitum.  Most RPs have a particular theme, such as adventure, or comedy, or slice-of-life.

During RP, sometimes players want to ask a question about the setting, but knows that their OC wouldn't say that "in-character".  So, one way to ask questions or just comment "Out of Character", or OOC, is just using (()) parenthesis.

So for instance:

Poster: Feather decided to walk into a building.
Replier: Juniper follows. ((which building?))
Poster: ((the bakery)) He walks up to the counter and asks, "Could I have some apples, please?"
Replier: ((ok)) Juniper pulls out some money to pay for the apples.

For most RPs, the poster who made the thread, or the Opening Poster (OP) is also the Game's Master, or GM.  Everypony in the game has to listen to the GM's rules, or risk getting thrown out of the game.



Hope that answers your question!
