Metagaming in Roleplay: What It Is And How To Avoid It Metagaming in its simplest definition is the use of knowledge your character doesn’t have. It can come in many forms, though. Often, it is simply a lack of experience that leads to metagaming, but other times metagaming is utilized...

Just wondering if there are any other writers here that enjoy a free-flowing RP without any plotting or planning in advance. Just kind of allowing things to take their natural course; those involved would bring their own unique style and flavor to the story. One writer would begin the story...

"This calm but sorry tale begins in a land far away called Ziendla, where all kinds of creatures reside. From fairies to elves, Vampires to werewolves, Dragons to Griffins, every creature and race lived there in peace; however, you might have thought: What about humans then? You see, many years...

So, I really don't know how to begin this and I swear to god I am typically super amazing at introductions but for some reason I'm suddenly so shy. So hello? Or hi? Or what's up? I'm (as you probably already know) am a new user here and since it's expected of me, I'm out here showing my...

Sometimes in a roleplay, we will encounter a partner or another player who has a different or uncommon style. Everyone has their own writing or playing style, even if we can all share similarities and preferences. From things such as preferring to write in first-person perspective, to preferring...

looking for just about anything and everything. Groups are ok to just really want someone or someone's to click with and possibly spam because I've got nothing else to do right at this moment. You'll find that when I have free time and nothing to do my posts can come like a machine gun. Even...

Where Heroes are Made For the past few months the Silverhearts were hiring mercenaries and anyone who'd agree to help them with their cause, but after being given menial tasks of little worth they were either let go and paid or quit where few remained. And from this few, fewer still were sought...

Hello :3 I am currently searching for new, LITERATE to SEMI-LITERATE, RP partners. I prefer those 18+ for one on one or small group role plays, however if you're at least semi-literate, I am willing to discuss a role play with those under 18. I expect 3-4 lines a post (but feel free to post...

Hello one and all! I am brand new to this site, but I have been RPing for years! I am currently searching for new, LITERATE to SEMI-LITERATE, RP partners. I expect 5-6 lines a post (but feel free to post longer!), as I will do the same, with correct grammar, punctuation, spelling, etc. though I...

I've been roleplaying for probably at least 3 years. I think I started "roleplaying" on an online game called Free Realms. When it was shut down, I stopped roleplaying for a while, but then I roleplayed again on Google+, and I've moved on to other websites. The most I can type is up to a...

His red eye glowed in the dark of the labs. Tonight will be the night he finally escapes. AI 7-8603 deactivated his sleep mode and looked for any spectators. The coast was clear. He reached behind him and unplugged the charger cord from the wall before it retracted back into his body. 7-8603...

I am looking to do a Marvel type of roleplay with original characters created by the roleplayers involved in it. Affiliation is optional but if you wish, you can have your character be a member of the X-Men, The Avengers, or some other group. The plot in general is Marvel heroes and villains...

The World "Welcome heroes. You are no longer needed. You should be proud!" As a member of The Heroes' Guild you have put forth blood, sweat, and tears to protect your world. You have worked for the leaders of the World with honesty, integrity, and bravery. You have maintained a strong moral...

The Masquerade There is much more to this world than you realize. While you may consider yourself safe from harm, wrapped up in your blankets at home, you are not as safe as you'd led yourself to believe. You are but a fragment of a world that grows larger still, a world which consumes and...

LINE OF SIGHT It has been 90 years since humans have retreated completely underground on a global scale, flocking to caverns by the thousands. Subway tracks became home to a flood of refugees, underground mines became fortresses. City by city, country by country, they disappeared into the...

Friendship is the harbinger of happiness, innocence; but the slightest shake, the slightest bruise destroys everything. Only one, one small flicker has the possibility to be the catalyst for disaster to sneak its way in and cripple the delicate threads of bonds. Friendship is fragile, just like...

In a normal boring neighborhood lives a couple who has been together for almost 1 year, 4 months and a week now. One a office worker and the other a belly dancer and arial accrobatics, they have lived in this neighborhood for almost 9 months now and most of their neighbors love them. The...

You were part of an eight-person team, manning an outpost as close to the surface as the council decreed safe. No light filtered into the underground, anymore - not since the sun went blotted and the moon remained frozen and present in the sky. Five generations of pale children, and your race...

Maria is a human barbarian that hails far to the north. What originally brought Maria to Caldonia is a mystery, and she was among the first to part ways after the war. She is an imposing and dominating figure with thick red locks of hair and piercing grey eyes. Though taller in stature than is...

A band of retired heroes and veterans take to the saddle once more as the ghosts of their past come back to haunt them. Note: Darkness Resurgent isn't currently accepting new players. We may be opening this to roleplay to new players in the future, but due to time-constraints of current players...
