Long time RPer, first time poster. ( )

Postby TheJen. on Thu Dec 15, 2011 1:23 am

Oh wow. Here I am.

The name's Jen. I'll be 22 in about a week.
I've been role playing since the late 90s, early millennium and have been an avid reader/writer since I could, well, read and write. I haven't RPed in a very long time, but I miss it. Especially in the winter where I am most creative. All of my RPing buddies have dropped off the face of the earth or grown up and fled the coop. Good for them, but I'm suffering without the sport of characters and imagination.

My main inspirations are Stephen King and horror movies, and I tend to write in this style the majority of the time.
I love anything with a twist and a dark story, so it's no surprise that the majority of my characters are naughty or at least dysfunctional. I almost can't even help it! I play mostly females but been shifting towards males, and I can comfortably play both.

This place is overwhelming! I don't know what to do with so many people like me!

My role playing preferences:
    - Realism or fantasy [usually semi-fantasy, majority realism]
    - Elements of horror, gore, rated R, etc. Of course, I have no qualms about straying outside the zone of horror.
    - Advanced, as in I put a lot of work into my stories. I would expect others to do the same. More fun that way!
    - I can really get into our stories. I used to make entire elaborate websites detailing everything. I believe obsessed is the word. >.>
    - Uh... Can't think of anything else right now.

Take a stab at me. I've been wanting to join for a long time now. Just haven't had the balls. ;-;

Welcome to RPG! I'm rather new myself, to the site, but it's filled with courteous, skilled RPers from what I have seen. Making entire elabourate websites for RPs...that sounds exactly like something I would do. I have entertained thoughts like 'Man, there needs to be some sort of wiki site for this RP' for particularly larger RPs XD

Anyway, hope to see you in the RP tabs.
I am not, in fact, a woman. Apparently, I have to affirm this. :v

Hey there!

Welcome to the site!

If you're looking for roleplays you could try to locations, the first being Interest Checks wherein you might find up and coming suggested roleplay ideas. Alternatively, there's always Roleplayers Wanted where there are people in need of roleplayers for their RP's!

Otherwise, you could always start your own. Asking around chat might help you find people interested in an RP or who are making their own.

Goodluck out there.

Honesty and transparency were valued, new people were incorporated into the community rather than judged based on what style of writing they preferred, and despite the youthfulness and zeal of the population there prevailed a reasonable degree of common sense.

Howdy-hey, Jen! M'name's Sato, and welcome to RolePlayGateway!

It's awesome to add you, an experienced writer to our arsenal. Nyahhaa. Don't be shy around here. We're all pretty friendly, as you can see from these replies!

We have a thriving realistic roleplay group that tackles new content like every day .. same with fantasy. Whatever your cup of tea, I'm sure you'll find your niche here.

Your first step should be to get your first ten forum posts out of the way. Click here to hear a bit more on why, and to be directed to a list of threads that'll help you get that done with really quick and whatnot! Haha.

As a Designer for RPGateway, I am contractually obligated to throw you a link to the Creative Realm, a place to post your original works of poetry, prose, music, or artwork. It's in the middle of a revitalization at the moment - we're trying to make the place a bit more active, so if you have something you've been sitting on, definitely check it out!

Also (snore, snore!) I have to link you to RPG's Rules. I know it's boring, but just give them a read. They're really brief! They'll give you an idea of what standards we hold ourselves to, as a community.
