Scared of that ' Paragraphs required' in the rules?
Don't be! Longer, more literate posts come with a little practice, and make for a more involving experience.
Having trouble coming up with stuff for your character? try these:
- How would your character react?
- What thoughts would your character have about a situation?
- are there any actions that go with the situation?
- what is your character's body-language? does Your character fiddle with stuff, get close to people, talk with their hands?
- what's happening around your character?
- Talk in the chatterbox
- share your ideas in the plot threads or comment on others' ideas
- Read other people's posts to see different RP styles and see what you like
- try to leave an opening or thread to pull on in each post so that the other person has something to work off of, without steamrollering them.
- enjoy yourself!
