Here’s my idea for an RP:
Basically it is an RP based on Illusionaria forum where Illusionaria is a village in the land of Forums whose occupants are dedicated to the pursuits of theatre and literature (RPing and writing). There is an inn (general), a theatre (rps), a library (writing), a village green where poetry recitals are occasionally performed (poetry) and a market (competitions). Illusionaria is located by the sea; it is a narrow but treacherous channel of water, on the other side of which is Real Life (know as “across the water”).
Characters:
You are the characters! But please note, not you in real life, you in the forum world. You will have the responsibility to write you own char sheet but we should talk to each other and get an idea for how other forumers see you.
Vague Char Sheet:
This only needs to be vague. You don’t need exactly these points but use this kind of info. We will assume your human, don’t do other races unless others have said you should be something different; if you think you have a case for another race just ask.
Name: Your user name.
Nickname: Any nicknames you are known by on the forums.
Class: Your class, a description maybe. PLEASE NOTE: I don’t think we should have any bards or such things, it is taken as a given that most people will be involved with such arts the way people are generally involved in role plays and stuff. You can mention to what extent this is true for your char, but it will not define them.
Weapon: If it comes to violence, good to know what you’re fighting with.
Appearance (general statement): This just needs to be really general. We don’t need to know your eye/hair colour, but if anything important dose not fit with being the class you are, then say.
Mental attitude/personality: Try and work off what other people say about you.
Running the RP:
Well, I would run it but that seems like a doomed road. If anyone wants to run it, just PM me. However if people don’t think we need someone to run it ‘cept to yay/nay char sheets, and that we either don’t need a main plot/main plot can be decided by consensus, then I could do that. But yeah, what do people think?

My ideas about people:
I was going to do just a few examples, but then I rather got into the spirit of it…
These are just my ideas, please expand/correct.
Should I do me first or last?... First:
Well, I guess I would be an invisible man in a top hat and suite. It’s been my avatar consistently and it kind of goes with how I am. For a class I was thinking of a tinker, they come around every now and then, try and impress everyone and make some money and then go and bugger off again. As I say these are just my ideas.
Webster:
Evil, one would imagine; lots to expand on there. However, evil but friends with everyone, yeah? Also he’s global mod, could be mayor?
Vreck:
I’m thinking a hermit. Wise but forgetful; peculiar but witty. Goes with the ying yang stuff.
Dark Nova:
Got to be a halo guy. Though, I’m getting a wolf man vibe, anyone else get that? Dark, when you posted up pictures of yourself, I thought your cousin was you because he looks kind of like a wolf man; it was only then that I realised my feelings. But yeah could be both, that would be cool.
Pat:
I’m getting a scout vibe, maybe a ranger. With general mod, maybe scout turned inn keeper. Also I think pat could pull off being an elf, just me?
FC4:
You know how I said it should be you online, not real life? Well, it may just be ‘cause we hear a lot about your life, Frank, but to me Boy Scout sums you up on line; is that far? Travelling across the land of forums, from village to village, doing good deeds. Breathing life into dying theatre performances; filling up people’s libraries.
Zelric:
Some kind of crazy magic person, maybe alchemist. Working in the library and meticulously tending to the village green ready for any poetic performance the might come along.
Simmo:
Merchant in the market. Recently graduated apprentice. Kind of like the tinker but no travelling. Well may or may not like that, simmo. Any other ideas?
Illusionary:
There may be other ideas about this but what do you think to… Rogue Princess? In charge, but comes and goes. Respected but kind of infamous. What d’ya think?
Hope you guys don’t mind me writing this up
But, yeah, I know there are other characters out there: these are just the guy I’ve come across enough to chatter about; lest I’ve forgotten someone.
Also in role play you should interact with people they way you do on the forums, or at least have the same relationship, if slightly characterised.
Even if you don't want to join still feel free to come along and chat.
