Roleplaying Forums Main Out-Of-Character Thread

Post by **CyberDragon** » Sat Jan 19, 2019 2:16 pm

I don't think that's allowed, honestly. Probably for the same reason why playing a cannon character in the RPs isn't allowed. These games sort of exist in their own cannon outside of the comic. People I think are allowed to reference events in the main comic if the game is labeled HPU, but not play a character who is or is related to a character in the comic. I'd still check with a moderator like Hlaoroo or Serence Frostbite.

Yeah unfortunately we don't accept any characters who has any sort of supposed connection to established character. If you want to have a magical character, that's fine, but she needs to be a stand-alone character.

Post by **Hlaoroo** » Sat Jan 19, 2019 7:51 pm

As the others have said, we don't really allow that sort of thing in the RPs just to avoid confusion with the canon of the comic.

That said, you're more than welcome to write fanfiction about her in the fan projects section!

Post by **CyberDragon** » Sat Jan 19, 2019 7:58 pm

You're also welcome to submit a character that is similar to the one you mentioned but with direct references to the main comic changed. The best option though is to look at the RP descriptions, pick one that looks fun, then custom make a whole new OC for that RP.

If it was one of my threads i would consider that character pretty bare bones and would be asking for more info before allowing it.

Post by **Serence Frostbite** » Wed Jan 30, 2019 5:59 am

Well I suppose this is a start, though as I mentioned in your first thread, it is going to be a little bit harder to find an RP that's accepting main human character. Regardless, to make a more attractive character, I suggest taking a look at the other members' character sheets, like backstory, a little bit more personality, likes, dislikes, fear, family, hobbies, a little more on how they looks, etc....

Being perfectly honest, while nothing wrong with it, you probably shouldn’t self insert, it can limit you quite a bit

All of your characters appear in a single meeting room together.

After some confusion and looking around. Who speaks first? Also if you have the number handy, how many are there (i mean, you don't HAVE to count the entire village)?

Post by **Serence Frostbite** » Mon Feb 04, 2019 3:49 am

wow that's an interesting and tough thing to imagine XD

Buster · Post by **Buster** » Mon Feb 04, 2019 7:13 am

if it were my characters, that would depend if it's just this forum or overall.
if it's just this forum first to speak is kobor demanding to know why there are several hundred Pokemon there.
if it's overall, it's Harmony and Rembrandt demanding to know how they managed to fit in the room (Harmony is a sentient planet, Rembrandt is the AI avatar of the Siege Perilous II Class Higuard warship Remnant Of Fear, who's the size of an aircraft carrier.)

oh definitely Flynn talks first cause he's been in the "suddenly appears somewhere" situation 2 or 3 times before. probably something like "******* again!?!"
assuming you mean only player characters
7 active HPU characters
6 inactive HPU characters
2 active non-HPU characters
6 inactive non-HPU characters

that's 21 characters I've made on here

Post by **Hlaoroo** » Tue Feb 05, 2019 4:43 am

I've got you beat, Brent

I have 21 active mains (counting Pepito since he's in an active RP despite his original RP being dead), 1 active NPC/minor who was downgraded from a main, and 5 mains from dead RPs. So that's 27 in total. And that's just the animals and not the vets, owners and other assorted humans I regularly play to keep the rps running.

It'd be a tie between Fletcher and Chris, I reckon. Both are very outgoing characters and both are capable of taking charge and looking after themselves. Fletcher was famous and has had to fend off hordes of fans and Chris grew up in a rough area of London and knows how to fight when she has to.
Although Kelly would react pretty quickly too. She's a robot programmed as an usher and she's programmed to protect pets and people.

yeah? well... how many of your characters have the same name?
cause going through my list apparently I've had 3 Chrises: Christopher Drake in 17CF, Chris Kirkpatrick in Chival Res, and Christina Kamoshika in Zootopia

Okay, you win in that regard.

Hmm, if it was only my housepets forums characters, Luka would ask if anyone wants pancakes, but if my LARP (it was kind of cheesy) character was there too, he wants to know what happened to him being dead.
3 characters in the housepets forums,
4 altogether (I can't even remember his name)

Argent · Post by **Argent** » Wed Feb 06, 2019 9:36 am

Cinnamon starts talking first because of course he does I mean what do you expect?

Pitchpipe is hiding under the table. GIANT WEASEL! GOTTAGETOUTTAHERE.

Terry tries to calm down Pitchpipe but of course he's a carnivore too.

I've forgotten the name of my Binturong guy. Doesn't matter. He's asleep.

Leafolawl · Post by **Leafolawl** » Wed Feb 06, 2019 12:57 pm

I'm definitely keeping it to just characters I've had here on the forum.

Which doesn't make it much easier, actually. Einar, Rena, and Skya would all be quick on something to say.

Einar and Skya would both be on important questions like "Where are we?" and "Who are you people?"

... And then Rena would be going "Which magically souped-up turd do ah need to be yellin' at to fix this?"

Neon Icy Wings · Post by **Neon Icy Wings** » Wed Feb 06, 2019 2:11 pm

Keeping it to just the forums for simplicity. Add in my non forum characters and it'd take me too long to sift through them all.

Most of my characters would take a back seat, being like "What the heck is going on?" and waiting to see what happens. The only one that would actually speak up would probably be Tatiana, who would be split between amused and annoyed at the whole thing. Second up would probably be Blithe from Chival who would be amazed at all the different people there.

Welsh Halfwit · Post by **Welsh Halfwit** » Wed Feb 06, 2019 2:17 pm

It'd be Corp. "Who the heck are you lot?"

Guess who's aliii~ive!

Surprise, it's me! After a bought of radio silence, sorry if I scared anybody btw, I have properly returned! And I come baring updated character sheets, along with a few changes to my gameplan!

The characters that I am keeping and have been updated are: E from Exotic Acres, Flukely and Charles from Richmond Acres, James and Marky from Apollo City, and Yensid and Retlaw from Radiant Gardens Vineyard!

While the rest of my characters and RPs have been dropped, or at least I'm assuming I'm not too pivotal to anything seeing as how I was gone for like 2 years, this doesn't mean they're gone! I might bring some more of them back or even rework them into someone new all together! Now if you excuse me, I have to go get my boys approved again. It feels good to be back!

Anyone else feel like reading old RP's. Or even older parts of current Roleplays?

Post by **CyberDragon** » Wed Apr 10, 2019 4:55 pm

Actually I recently did just that with RA. I went all the way back to the poacher arc.

Leafolawl · Post by **Leafolawl** » Wed Apr 10, 2019 5:24 pm

I would actually recommend it to newcomers. I do it any time I join long standing roleplays—I even reread all of Applegate when I rejoined.

Post by **Serence Frostbite** » Wed Apr 10, 2019 6:25 pm

yeah same, i read RPs from the beginning when i join and when i need to rremind myself of some details. It's actually pretty good, some of the RP's ending is a little sombering, but that's part of why i love them too.
