Anyone RP?

I'm a huge fan of roleplaying myself, mostly chatplay over msn these days, but I also do play by post. I was just wondering if anyone else here likes to RP/has RPed before, or am I the lone RPG nerd here?

Re: Anyone RP?

RPG, no.

I tend to do a bit of private one-on-one RP story style, but it's not really games.


Otherwise, there's probably not too many around here that have the time to do that sort of thing even if they wanted to.

Re: Anyone RP?

*blinks* no RP here? You sure about that Mana??
We've got light RP here most of the time if you head down to the lounge area and poke your head into the Asylum. We tried one or two more serious ones too though they can sometimes die the death of inaction - but still fun all the same

Re: Anyone RP?

Well I really don't consider that full-blown RP unless there's an adventure going on.

As for RP I believe she means something along the lines of D&D-whatever happened to your thread on that theme, anyway, OR?


But there's some simple characterization RPing in the lounge, FF, if that's your sort of thing.

Yes, and we are trying to get a quest together.

Re: Anyone RP?

Another quest? like the one we had last time that died? only not dying off this time before anything exciting happens?

Re: Anyone RP?

I mean like any type of RP whether it be freeform (no D&D system, more just storytelling) or D&D type with the dice and all. I tend to do no system though.

Re: Anyone RP?

I used to RP alot on a different forum, till it got over run by teenagers who just wanted to fanfic rp about mushy gushy romance stuff and I have occasionally played some dice D&D stuff but that hasn't been for years.

Re: Anyone RP?

Well any RP, that's what the lounge is pretty much for, FF. Considering my Chrons identity for such fun is a storm elemental, does that count?


Quests get together once in a great while and they actually used to be resolved.....or so I've heard. I've never been through one like that myself, though, and I'm less than a month shy of my two-year Chroniversary.

Re: Anyone RP?

Oh when I say fan fic rping Karn, I mean like they wanted to rp tv shows and not scifi, mushy girly ones with boys and kissing (eeewwwww) so I stopped going there. Nothing like the RPing that happens in the lounge.

Re: Anyone RP?

I have been an RPGer for years (old guy? maybe a little). I started a D&D group back in '78 and have been both a DM and a player in several groups since. I'm going to have to move soon, but after I get re-settled I hope to start a new table top game with some new people and maybe one person who's been in a group with me before. I also love PC RPGs...mostly single player (Bauldar's Gate-Neverwinter Nights etc.) I also like a good hack and slash Diablo II is probably my favorite. I have also played Guild Wars some, but my group fell apart and I've never been much for picking up a group at random.

I also drop by the Lounge now and again when I have time, but haven't had a lot lately...hopefully more later after the move.

Re: Anyone RP?

I love Diablo II. Diablo III looks promising too. Never got into MMORPGs though. I like Fable 2 on the 360 and I dont mind the elderscroll games.

Re: Anyone RP?

If you liked Diablo II take a look at Torchlight!

I've played and beaten the story quests on that one. It's not bad, but it's a bit strange, especially with its graphics.....
