    What game are you currently enjoying

    I didn't always appreciate MaA while I was learning the game, but I warmed up to MaA when I realized he's Leper's best friend, and he has literally the two best camping buffs in the game. What are your favorite ways of using MaA? This is actually harder to pick just one favorite but probably...

    How do you guys role-play romance?

    Hi Russ, It's probably fair to say that everyone has a favorite flavor of romance, but I think more complex relationships end up being more rewarding to write and reward than simple ones. I like "missing the timing" is a very interesting way to balance the plot progression with character...

    Abraxas: A Triumph of Evil

    Dilraba sat in silence for a moment, letting the verdant scent of tea wreath her until she felt transported to another place in time. Outside, the sounds of people passing by barely made it through the windows and walls of this restaurant, and since it was closer to the citadel, it was cleaner...

    Dilraba entered the restaurant, to find Chen Ling already seated, the cook already turned to the task of steaming jiaozi. She had never been to this restaurant before, but she had been prepared for the task ahead. “Ni hao,” she greeted the cook with friendliness and sat a seat apart from...

    Abraxas: A Triumph of Evil

    The setting sun had finally disappeared beyond the horizon, and dusk descended over the city. Dilraba was late to her meeting with the most dangerous woman on the west continent, so she hurried to make it in time to the restaurant. The ever present sound of construction rang on almost every...

    Abraxas: A Triumph of Evil

    “Actually, my treasure,” Abraxas drawled, his voice echoing down the fresh cut stones of the hallway, abrasive to her ears. “It would honor me if you accompanied me during my…meeting.” Thoughts of the meeting with his old rival stirred deep currents of emotions in himself, and it made him...

    Abraxas: A Triumph of Evil

    The bird fights its way out of the egg. The egg is the world. Who would be born must first destroy a world. The bird flies to God. That God's name is Abraxas. -Max Demian Abraxas slumped into his chair before his desk for only a moment, and then straightened. June, his assistant, raised an...

    Pre-Apocalypse is an underutilized Genre

    That kind of event sounds pretty cool! Were you thinking of more hard science style, with holes in the ozone, or soft science/fiction style?

    Pre-Apocalypse is an underutilized Genre

    SO much has already been done in post-apocalypse and it's a little played out by now. I think there are many pre-apocalypse types of media where due to the heroic actions of the few, it's averted, horray. (ie Deep Impact). But what about the idea that it's inevitable and unavoidable and...

    New RPer question: When you start a roleplay, do you always know how or when it should end?

    Okay thanks for the perspective! It helps alot knowing in advance of starting my first RP.

    The Tarot Card Plot

    Find a nearby deck of playing cards and remove the face cards. Draw 8 cards at random and lay them in a circle, moving counterclockwise. This is your Hero's Journey/ Dan Harmon's story circle. Use any tarot dictionary at your disposal or online to create a story as it pertains to each card in...

    New User The clink of drink glasses and hushed conversation continues unabated as a stranger enters the room.

    Thanks! I'm just patiently waiting for approval. Your response is very helpful. How can I tell how often they post in their active roleplay? Is there a way to indicate on a roleplay if you want to "shelve" it for a little while if you aren't going to actively post on it but intend to return to...

    Haha noted but also while I'm not typically adverse to innocuous mystery brownies, I tend to be more skeptical of the Flavorade

    Thank you very much! This is my first brush with RPing, and I'm pretty new to how interactions work. Do you post a story idea and wait for people to reply? Do you browse RP threads and hit up people directly if you like their style? How else do you find stories?

    Inviting Constructive Criticism of My Art

    I think it's a bold and wonderful art style. It has a bold and clean line style that I feel would translate very well into wall art. If I saw quality art like this as a mural somewhere, I definitely would be taking a picture with my phone and telling people they should go check it out.
