I'm scared already.

Aren't we all...

Me & Schmuty Buncis are organising an RP around the Five Year War. Expect to see something like that soon-ish.

Yeah, I figure that would be a pretty good anology.

On a serious note, what if we did some TES: Gundam thing (in the future. Maybe the summer where I have more time), where people fly Dwemer robot ships and kill each other...

Have you seen the Skyrim section? Theres SO many new people in there! Skyrim did make the forum full of people. It's just that all the newbies just sit in the Skyrim section and never explore the rest of the forums.


They check community discussion as well. But we RPers are a hardcoe breed of fan: we read and understand the fiction, and wish to contribute to it outside of the video games through our writing skills while socially communicating with the creations of other people.

We are simply put, made of win.

That would be awesome.

I might make up TES: Dragon Ball Z (now that the title is stuck in my head) in a bit; it'll happen eventually.

I think it'd sort of be each character gets a power corresponding to their god; such as the Akatoshian character could change time (jump ahead, move back, pause) but only for a bit, the Kynarethian character could manipulate nature or something... I don't really want to restrict what the characters would do; it'd basically be up to how inventive they could combine their powers.

Oh yes, many newbies I never even thought were possible.

TES DBZ? That would be great, admittedly amazingly confusing however if we follow the exact storyline of the series.

Nooooooo! I just wanted to change my avatar to your avatar and change my name to Woolymammoth by coincidence... :P

If you guys need RP ideas, I can throw some out. Depending on how the next six weeks goes, now that the plays done, I may be able to participate in an RP.

Edit: Also, I just realized Ni! Sigged my "We are, Simply Put, Made of Win" Comment. I feel proud to have a comment become sigged :D

Hey everyone! Guess who's back? Good to see some oldies still here from when I used to be around more often. *waves at Scow, Swift-Blade and wooly*

Anywhoo, just dropping in here (seemed to be the most appropriate place to do it) and saying hi. I'll do something more.. contribute-y later. Till then, I'll go lurk around a few of the existing RPs and see what's up nowadays.

*Le Gasp!*
Shadow and Havok! Hiya, buddies!

Been thinking I might ('could maybe possibly consider perhaps kinda' type of 'might') try 'Diary of a Madgod' over here.. or something like it since Illusionaria seems to have gone pining for the fjords. Have some good pre-concepts for Skyrim-native Zeterras (they came from there in the first place, after all!) what with ES5 finally coming, too, so I may go off in a totally different direction. I ain't done with Karst, much to her likely disappointment, but her successor's in the works.
And if you don't know what a Zeterra is, just picture the orneriest bunch of Khajiit misfits you ever saw and.. you're about spot on. :P

More generally speaking, do lemme know if anyone's in need of a good dose of stupid/crazy in their RP. I happened to notice Uglius and Verlox among the living as well, by the by, so good ta see more people I know from 'back in the day.' Haha..

Back in my day, this here was just 'TES Fan Fiction!' You young punks and your long-named subforums! I used to have to walk uphill, both ways, in the snow and blistering heat, to the library to post! Dern kids and their 'Why-Fye' and 'Bookfaces' and whatnot.. *shakes cane at people*

EDIT: Dang, I feel old. All these people in here for Skyrim reminds me of way back when I was playing Morrowind and found out about TES IV, and all the people after that talking about 'When's Oblivion 2 coming?' and stuff. I should go start calling this 'Morrowind 3' now.. See if anyone gets it from back then.

I'd like to come back to this board for some nice RP'ing. Problem is usually the ones I join I either love but they die out, or they're successful but I can't get into them.

Any (somewhat) new RP's that are going strong right now that I could hop into, or is anyone coming up with one? I'd like to brainstorm with some people and start an adventure RP, like a band of people set out on an adventure or something simple where we can focus on character development and interactions and build that into an overlying story.

Anyone game/has this happened already?

you really should bring that over here Aula, it was a great concept and it kinda died when people disappeared -_- the only problem with a private forum, but it happens *shrug*

I may have to bring out an rp of my own soon if i can't be in a rp that doesnt stay active either, because my creative juices are flowing and there is no where to type the great ideas and characters that are bursting to be let loose!

That being said i will hopefully have a concept idea out by the end of the long weekend, and it might be the perfect kind of crazy that i will need you to be a part of with your own creations >: D

The Knight, The Sword, and the Sentinel. It looks like a political RP at first, but it also has a strong adventure plot along with the war plot.

Hello all!

I probably won't be in the forums here for much more than this thread, but I had this idea, and decided to bring it here. I'm pretty interested in this, and these forums look full of real forumers. It's also intimidating considering this world to me is so foreign and huge. I haven't completed The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion, and I haven't played the others. I hope I have enough knowledge to compose this. At any rate, we'll all be completing Skyrim I'm sure!

The Overview

The city is Alkatraz. It's called a city because it is a fully functioning institution in which the prisoners are enslaved and made to work the place, growing crops, transporting goods, all with in the confines of the island. It is annexed off and surrounded by water, somewhere inside of Skyrim. It had been around for hundreds of years, starting off as a simple prison, then transforming into a slaver/prisoner crew. You have been stripped of your magicka abilities since the place is enchanted, as well as all the guards having powerful mage abilities. Not only that, but all who have tried to escape has befallen the Reaper, a magical dragon that is conjured by the ruler of Alkatratz, to feast on those who think it possible to escape.

You are one of the prisoners of Alkatraz, and little do you know, a grand plan has been devised by a particular someone, who has the ambition to gather a large group of prisoners and escape in a way that almost guarantees freedom, or so that's what he believes.

This is an interest check, just to see if anyone would be willing to join, not the official sin-up. That will be more fleshed out. Tell me what you guys think.

Isn't that off a story that's been going on forever? Or is it relatively new? I could dream up a couple characters with interlocking stories, otherwise.

I kinda wanna join Verlox's RP, but I'm totally svcktastic at coming into RPs mid-tilt. In light of that, I'm reposting an old creation of mine from Illusionaria here (or did repost, rather). Can go see if it's your cup of tea if ya like.

Been a while since I've seen avid storytellers and such so I'm glad I finally found this forum! I'd like to introduce myself, I'm Mony and I'm probably am a total TES nerd, and that of fanfiction, however, I have never seen what I'm seeing in this forum so I'm a newbie when it comes to "RPing". Perhaps I have been in the wrong fan fiction forums? Haha, more or less probably. I do like this type of telling better though, from what few looks I have gazed upon so far.

I think I'll just spend the next odd number of days reading through some of these soon to be amazing tales, but if anyone is working on a new one and needs an extra newbie writer, I'll be more then willing to fit the whole. :)
