Slumberlumber 119 January 4 Share January 4 Hello all! I'm looking to start RPing here on the forums, but this is my first time so not sure what to do for that. My character is a doctor to summerize, and I made him in a horror fashion, working in a shady institute doing some.....questionable stuff for medical science. Part of his world is planned but....playing it out I have no idea how. Probably shouldn't make it my first one, but maybe I should? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SidewinderX 5 Wednesday at 09:40 PM Share Wednesday at 09:40 PM Howdy! Although I've never roleplayed on this forum specifically, I've participated in various other RPs. Honestly, if you think you've got a story, go for it! Horror can be tricky, though, because you often walk a fine line between 'genuinely scary' and 'trope-y.' Perhaps elaborate a bit on the ideas you have for this roleplay? I could offer what little advice I feel knowledgeable enough to give. Circumstances permitting, I should also be able to do the roleplay with you as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was thinking of a doctor going after the virus from the movie The Thing, (virus supposed to have been a vaccine to give all ponies special abilities to not make them prey animals, but it broke containment and is out in the wild.) He works for United Pony Care, an ancient organization that served the same goal for centuries. Maybe I should start out with basic RP's first to learn how to RP here?

So, basically the virus/vaccine made them magical and different from normal Earth horses, but the virus escaped and is now 'boosting' random animals? That sounds like a really cool idea that could escalate real fast. If you think you're ready for a full RP, go ahead. I'm honestly really bad at instructing people on this kind of thing , so the extent of my advice is limited, but with a last few details worked out (places, NPCs) it'll be great.

Create NPC's and places much like an D&D thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
