Would anyone be interested in starting a new RP with the following description:
The characters have been transported into a dark castle by a mysterious king who seems to have power across all the realms of existence. They will have to figure out what he wants with them before it’s too late.Now, that may do far sound similar to the Character “Party” RP that’s still going, but here’s the catch:
All types of characters are welcome, including villains. While we get fun interactions between the characters in other RPs, we know that they’re ultimately on the same side, whether they know it or not. Wouldn’t it be fun if the characters had conflicting interests instead? For this to work, I would say people should avoid characters that are mostly good, because too many of those would ruin the whole point. To evaluate if the character is good or not, use these four categories:
- Villains: characters that are just evil. They can be conflicted, but they’re ultimately in the side of evil.
- Characters who are out for themselves. They might be the type to join the good side if it was in their best interests, but they’re primary concern is themself.
- Characters who behave questionably. They might usually be good guys, but the way they do things isn’t necessarily good.
- Good guys. Doesn’t mean they are flawless, but they’re generally on the side of good.
We can have as many of the first two as we want, but we should limit the amount of types 3 and 4. I would say at most 20% type 3 and 10% type 4.
I want to wait for the character party to get back on its feet, so this one doesn’t kill it, but we can introduce our characters.
Lastly, note that, judging by, the character party RP, this one will likely be pretty fast paced.

October 30, 2023 at 11:55 am #161576Already got my character description created. Can’t wait.
How many characters is everyone allowed to have for this rp? Less is always easier to follow, but it never hurts to have more.

October 30, 2023 at 12:31 pm #161599Start with one, I think. If everyone had two, we’d end up with too many to keep track of. If anyone wants to add a second, we’ll settle those cases on an individual basis.

📚 Appreciator of BooksOctober 30, 2023 at 12:34 pm #161602October 30, 2023 at 12:35 pm #161604My character, who some of you have heard about already:
Krenna
Krenna is a thief hailing from the planet Ildin in Celestiar. People on this planet live entirely underground, because the surface is uninhabitably cold. She is a user of Resonance Crystals, which reside in a host’s body and grants them powers. Krenna’s powers include splitting her consciousness, generating crystals on her body, which can be formed into weapons on her arms, and increased strength and healing.
She’s 5′ 7″, has brown eyes, shoulder length black hair, and wears a sleeveless top (to provide more area to generate crystals), a belt equipped with a variety of tools, and trousers. All her clothes are shades of black, gray, or tan.
Krenna is rude, reckless, self-assured, and exudes perpetual boredom.
Krenna comes with a thieving crew made of split pieces of her consciousness: Loop, Ops, and Whisp. These started out insubstantial, but their appearances developed as their personalities did.
Loop
Loop is the brains of the team. Her hair is brown, not as dark as Krenna’s, and she wears it in a ponytail. She also wears glasses. She is analytical and likes investigating new things. Her name is a reference to her handwriting.
Ops
Ops is the planner. He is very practical and strategic. He has short black hair. His name is short for “Operations.”
Whisp
Whisp is the scout. She is slightly taller than the rest, who are all the same height. Her hair is black, but longer than Krenna’s. She is exuberant and easily excited and is by far the friendliest of the four. Her name is short for “Whisper.”
Krenna refers to her crewmates as her “splits.” None of splits can be seen by anyone other than Krenna if they don’t want to, and they can appear either solid (although they never are) or translucent and ghostlike. Either way, they don’t cast shadows. Krenna and her splits can communicate telepathically, although they can block one another from accessing their perspective. Krenna can also let a split temporarily control part or all of her body, which is useful, especially for Loop, because otherwise Krenna would have to write things for her.

October 30, 2023 at 12:46 pm #161612Um… three is kind of a lot, and I kind of think we should have a hard cap at two. How about you introduce your first character before you do a second, unless they’re somehow connected. What characters did you want to add?

October 30, 2023 at 12:49 pm #161615Well… I haven’t decided on characters yet… but I wanted to do both Type 1 and Type 2…

October 30, 2023 at 12:51 pm #161617Ok, but start by adding just one. You are one of the people to have two characters in the other RP, so maybe wait a bit. It will probably work out, but for now how about just one?
