Oh Jesus, the character above mine. That's a little cringy. Then again... I've made characters 20,000,000,000,000,000 times worse.

 

[Sunstone]

I'm prepared to fuck up this roleplay with fourth-wall braking lines like : "your character is clihé" or, "I can't see you, you're one dimensional" or even "I've heard this dialogue a million times before." Ooh, also "I'll be calling you Mary Sue from now on."

Sunstone Holy crap, you actually got accepted! Judging from the character thread, dear God that RP has some of the worst characters I've seen on this site in a while. It goes to show what happens when you have such a generic premise and minimalistic character sheet, and obviously don't give a shit about who joins; you just pander to the lowest common denominator on this whole site.

On that note, it would actually be pretty funny to bombard that RP en masse with intentionally cliche'd and horribly written characters. They would probably fit right in.

I wasn't really expecting for this thread to start singling out Rpers to bash them...

Maybe I could change the subject by adding more cliches to the list?

The sweet, innocent damsel that every other female is mega jelly of and/or wants to be. Naturally, she is astoundingly beautiful, but is completely unaware of this blessing or believes the opposite and has some mix of low self esteem and depression. Her life changes after a chance encounter with the town's resident chain-smokin', fist-fightin' "bad boy". Channeling Wade Walker, he's a lascivious lout that hides a broken heart that pines for love and understanding underneath his raging libido.

I'm a big fan of the "friendly giant" cliche'. It's been overdone to hell and back, but I still enjoy those character and I think it's acceptable if done properly.

 

[RoyalPhoenix32]

Fan of the cliche 'fiery redheads'. I love redheads but I love adding my own twist to them. Also cliche of silver hair

 

[Bacon is fluffy]

Threads like these make me not want to rp lol

 

[Sunstone]

If any of you want to watch me get linched by a bunch of character tropes, here's the link to the thread. Also I know some of these people from other rps, so please don't go and send hate towards them. It's just this scenario is so cliché that all the characters basically have no choice, they are either really dumb or really cliché.mhttps://www.rpnation.com/threads/the-abnormal-academy.316858/page-58#post-7712828

Don't forget the OC's who represent everything in this song.

Dammit, you beat me to it!
Also when werewolves are just people who can turn into wolves at will and go by a pack system. I'm not saying that they're terrible, but they tend to be used a lot.

It's ok to use a few cliches. But if you use more than 1-2 for a character and it's really obvious then you need your head examined. Unless your new to RP. Than you have a 6 month mercy rule.
Otherwise mine has to be
- You haven't seen my final form *20 the whole fight.
-People who just won't understand that katana's are infact NOT the best sword in history. Infact it is pretty weak against other historical swords. since armour is a thing that existed.
-(i use this one every once in a while because love this one) the survivalist Russian, because both fit perfectly. Also works.with Canadian.
- People who use nothing but anime things for their apparence..
Like. I have to make a rule for this stuff it's so bad.

So true, those things chipped easily striking other swords.

You do have to admit though, if a Katana slices someone unarmored, you can expect limbs to fly. And then you have the Nodachi, hoo boy may God have mercy on anyone who becomes the victim of THAT blade.

oh yea, if someone i unarmed and unarmored they are fucked, but anything above a cloth tunic is laughable in many cases.

 

[Birdsie]

This is probably the worst type of character possible:

 

[Lakita]

I feel like everything's been done before. I personally enjoy a solid RP with cliches than something that tries to be completely original which I feel like it usually turns into A) something so complicated that most people can't follow or B) a cliche itself lol.

That being said, I'm usually not feeling any high school roleplays because well, it's kinda like roleplaying a sitcom life which I'm not into haha.

 

[Count Gensokyo]

The thing that irks me the most is OP unironically using "what" instead of "that."

Why.

Did you just unironically type 'top kek'? What is this, 2004?

Still pretty relevant on 4chan as of 2017.

Yes, because what's relevant in a place where people share fetish porn and genital removal is relevant everywhere.

You only implied that it's irrelevant everywhere, though.

Eh. I'd say relevant of 4chan and irrelevant everywhere are one of the same.

i'm actually neither a Katana Girl nor am i a Chainsaw Girl. i'm a Scimitar Girl who also loves, appreciates and uses a wide variety of Weapons besides merely Scimitars. the list is too long to name and it isn't from just one weapon category either but rather from several of them.

 

[Madame Owl]

I am personally the worst about having that typical ice queen.
