    Playing a character that isn't you

    Things like character knowledge can be bluffed. The hardest part of playing a different character than yourself is emulating a different personality accurately. Someone who pessimistic and even fatalist has a hard time playing a noble-bright character. An optimist who has never known great...

    league of legends roleplay :)

    The only real personality we get from each character is a one or two sentence bio and the blurbs in-game. Riot recently did away with the lore of summoners IIRC. You would have to write a great deal just to get an RP functional.

    league of legends roleplay :)

    Is there even enough lore to construct a good RP? I remember Riot ret-conning a lot.

    Women in Gaming

    Females have always been a part of gaming since it's conception, albeit in smaller numbers. It isn't good or bad, it just is. White/Asian men are just more likely to be a part of the genre and so the market is centred towards them. There isn't an issue of "diversity" in gaming, it's a niche...

    The use of DnD alignments in non dice games

    The Alignment system is a rather good way to map out a character's moral code. However, I disagree with you on lawful characters being boring if written correctly.

Want the villain a reason to be evil? Make him loose something dear to him and he becomes bitter and...

    I have to ask, what's up with all the romance?

    Agreed. When you have a site full of young girls, you're bound to see a deluge of romantic RPs. You seldom see it in RP based MUDs because a majority of the player base are in their late 20's and early thirties. Unless of course you're dealing with "that guy". Young girls with sub-par writing...

    Why Your RP Is Bad and Will Fail

    If only more people heeded your words of wisdom.I tend to avoid all fandom related role-playing for this exact reason. However, I believe that there is a deeper reason to why bad role-plays are bad, the writers just don't have enough experience. Not only in writing in general but in life in...

    Does the idea of being too "Mary-Sue" scare people away from certain tropes?

    While everyone's definition of a Mary Sue is different but there are a few basic themes. A Sue is usually a sign of bad writing and/or self-insertion. Here's a list of traits and behaviours that are generally agreed to be definitive of a Sue. 1. Are they a special snowflake? 2. Do they...
