Role playing या Rping as most of the community calls it. Almost everyone's done it one way या another whether they realize it या not. Remember those days when you'd pretend आप were a movie character या a prince/princess या a pirate या whatever. आप were role playing in a since. Now days when आप hear the word role playing आप probably think things like War Craft, तारा, स्टार Craft, Nights and Dragons, Toontown, etc..
Something you've probably never figured however, is rping in relation to writing. Writing, that's all rping basically is. It's just लेखन a collaborative story from different points of view and interacting.
Rping pre-established plot या not can be a lot of fun and very productive. Especially when writing, आप can create a place and really get a feel for the setting, a character, या even play with plot ideas. Through rping I have fleshed out- make a character और realistic या 3D. Numerous characters in half the time. आप can place them in numerous settings and think about what they would do. आप can literally be inside your character's head do what आप think they might would do, say what they might would say. Learn a outcome you've never figured before.
Rping allows आप to persue things with your character like a senario. Say there is a zombie attack would your character be और likely to stay where they are या help. Would they argue with everyone या get something done. This one character I have was designed for the 30's. He was a basic cop with a German Shepard dog who लॉस्ट his parents when he was 12. After rping with him in the present day, the 1850's and the future in a variety of scenarios. A cop, a former Federal Marshal till a zombie attack, a soldier, a retired special forces officer teaching. From those experiences I have picked the best traits I feel to stay consistent with him. One he's either a cop या a man of the military या both. Two he लॉस्ट his family when he was 12 though now he लॉस्ट his parents and four siblings. Three he has a trusty German Shepard dog that found him. I have several others I'll mention later on.
If आप have something basic like I listed above a cop and his German Sheperd for example या just a teenage boy. आप can come up with a past and a since of who they are. Like I'll use my cop. Undercover Detective Edward Dillinger and his dog.
After just a few months of rping him. I now have for character traits and general knowledge that makes him human is.
Edward has a temper and has been known to पंच a person या a दीवार if he gets in a bad enough arguement. Attack him या his dog with words या physically it equals a fight. Due to his ruff childhood and career. Having had लॉस्ट his parents and four siblings as well as his best friend/partner. He has PTSD- Post Tramatic Stress Disorder and has been known to drink heavily. His dog being one of the only ones that can calm him down. He's a hero, the type that would take a bullet for a complete stranger and he has bad survivors guilt morphed into the PTSD.
See how much I have there in so little time... Another character I have named Jack Rains all I had was the name and that he was in the 17-18 range. Just after a few hours of rping I established. He's a jokester he loves to wise crack and be sarcastic and pick on his elder friend Boris Chaney. He had a little sister-Lizzy and a mother. He can be a bit clumsy at times and he doesn't always know when to shut up. Also I learned that he's terrified of snakes and was in a चाकू fight in high school where he was the only one without a knife.
What can आप learn from your characters?
A character I long had established named Fang. I learned even और from. He has a temper but, he'll stand up for what he believes in. He's only had his spirits partially broken in his life time and he payed weapon x back for it in the end. He was born in 1912 and is as of 2013 101 years old though he still looks like he's around 14-16 range. His claws had a rare metal bonded to the bone cells themselves and I've managed to figure out how long it might would take for hm to heal. His memory was erased in the mid to late 60s. He is a chimera. If his wings get wet he sinks and his healing ability functions off of protein. He also has PTSD and is a natural born instigator. Only if आप start with him of course unless your a prison guard.
Originally all I had was his name was Fang and he was a mutant born during WWII in a secret government test facility and he went and joined the X-Men years later in the future. Wolverine was his father द्वारा DNA. His memory was erased and he had adamantium claws, wings and a healing ability.
Rping helps:
-character development as I stated and explained above
-creating a world. I have this battle academy that went from your basic school that allows weapons to... A school with secret passageways, that exists on a island made up of multiple terrains. That has a gymnasium that can creat any senario.
-research. आप can do research as आप go and ask others if they know for instance. I had a doctor in the 1850s and a character was drowning. Well CPR hadn't been officially invented yet. I found out about the Sylvester method that was used. My फ्रेंड्स didn't realize it and I taught them something new. Once I had a character that could heal. A friend helped me make it और realistic like it can take between a घंटा and a week for major injuries but only सेकंड्स for scratches and instant for bruises.
-gadgets. आप can come up with your character's choice weapon and find how useful it would be to them in a somewhat realistic way. For example in a steampunk one my character uses a Winchester but also a bow and ऐरो that folds up. Another example is my character has found during a zombie apocalypse arrows are better than bullets cause it's harder to run out of them and it isn't hard to make them. One of my friend's weapon of choice is a shovel.
There is always something to improve on so why not try rping it's easy and fun and आप don't have to do a video game to do it. All आप need is a मंच thread, an idea, a character and at least one other person to शामिल होइए you. Being a Rper for 2 years now I can say its one of my प्रिय things and it could easily become your favorite.
I think I'll take some time to explain some basic terms and rules first though before आप stop पढ़ना this article.
First of all ask to शामिल होइए unless it hasn't already started.
Don't spam it till आप get an answer sometimes Rpers rp while the one that started it is offline and they will get back to you. Just check often.
-No meta gaming या god modding, which basically means don't over power anything and don't use information that your character would otherwise not know.
-no bunnying या no bunnying without permission, means say आप and a person are talking say in Camelot. They aren't online and आप want to talk to someone in say Glasgow. आप can't say the person went with आप unless आप got permission from the person.
-no one liners, pretty basic means make your response और than one line and make it descriptive. For example:
Bad idea. Joe walked up to the castle.
Good idea. Joe walked down the winding path to the castle. He looked up at it. The walls were ominous black eroded stone. It looked like a place Dracula would get along well in. Joe swallowed and prayed that Dracula didn't live there.
-OOC, Out of Character, I means like talking person to person versus character to character many use either (()), [],() या some other version of those to explain they are Talking out of character. I prefer (()).
-bump, means moving the thread up in the recents so आप don't have to खोजिए for it. Also it can be used to bring something to mind.
-abide द्वारा other thread creators rules
-if there is a character sheet fill it out before आप jump in it lets them know about the character your using आप usually can modify the sheet and add a field या remove it though the fields in the original sheet generally is required
Ex: Name:
Age:
Personality:
Appearance:
Backstory:
Other:
-Open rp, means anyone can शामिल होइए at anytime
-closed या private rp, can't शामिल होइए या आप have to ask to join
-be nice to others and don't take the stuff seriously. Don't get in a fight fight and take it hard या as a personal attack. It's just character to character fighting
-cursing, most prefer little to none
-sex, usually prefer fades to black या going to messenger to do it then return back to the thread
-read the entire first post before joining. Each rp has a different plot and style आप may not want to शामिल होइए the first one आप click on only ones like the 'Coffee house' are threads where any character can join. I don't always शामिल होइए a rp I look at based on what the first post says. For instance there was one that was one called Camp Half-blood it was Demi-god based and I don't really care much about Demi-gods so I chose not to join.
-join as many as आप can handle आप need to शामिल होइए enough आप can keep up with and still get real life tasks done, sleep's important too
-Reality always comes first
-do your homework. आप want a schizophrenic character? Research it. People get offended when आप use a movie portrayal.
-don't make your character unbeatable, in other words make them human
-make your responses open ended. For example
Good idea:Fang threw a पंच at Victor.
Bad idea:Fang threw a पंच at Victor breaking his nose.
-NPC, non personal character, means they are just there usually not referred to द्वारा name
Ex: the guard walked up to Fang and ordered"move!"

DOVEWING PVO
Tigerheart and Dovewing had finished playing around and were lying in the Great Oak together.
Dovewing was breathing in Tigerheart's soft muscular scent and playing with his tail gently. He was sharing tongues with her and talking about each other's life together.
Dovewing was content to be there with him, it had been ages and there were no other बिल्ली here, no Bumblestripe, no jealousy. No Ivypool and Toadstep, Cinderheart and Liomblaze and everybody telling her to get a mate, like Bumblestripe.
She was there with who she loved and who she cared about most.
TIgerheart began talking to her slowly, calmly, contently.
"Dovewing, I प्यार आप और than ever!" He purred.
"I प्यार आप too, Tigerheart." Dovewing murmured.
She crouched down and started to lick his smooth फर and he played around.
"Tigerheart..." Dovewing began.
"Yeah?" Tigerheart asked.
"Will आप हटाइए to ThunderClan?" She asked.
