Stick a fork in it

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.


Temporary Change: To reduce the strain on Dreamwidth's servers new entries will go up when a post reaches 3,000. Please refrain from spamming so we can stretch these entries for a little longer. We don't need several threads soliciting photo evidence of body parts, and we already know that we only care about yaoi. Failure to comply will only result in deletions and butthurt. "People may notice site slowdown/cache error pages. We're working on fixing. You can help: finish posts at 3k comments, not 5k or more." - Dreamwidth@Twitter

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.


Concerns?

Are there any good PMs around? Or PMs around in general?

I love this character, but I never see anyone play her really.

Marina Asylum on IJ has a PM that's been around for a long time.

Thank you for mentioning this, anon.

I actually came to the Homestuck thread because I wanted advice on if it was possible to pull off a good PM, so it's funny you should ask.

I do want to try her, but I'm leery of the flack Homestuck in general gets, and AFAIK the only "speaking" roles she reallys gets are that brief guidance of John and the short-lived conversation with Jade wherein Bec blew the console up, and I'm not sure if that's enough for me to be confident about a voice for her.

As a carapace player, I understand how you feel. My suggestion is to review her pages and read carefully into the narration, which normally gives an overall description of what is happening in the scene. Actions speak louder than words sometimes and understanding the Exiles comes from understanding their situation and their progression. Reviewing scenes when PM was an exile and when she was still a messenger for Prospit also highlights how she has changed and yet what she is at her core. She's loyal to her kingdom, to the friends she has made, even if they are from Derse, and is resolute in fighting Jack Noir, even after hundreds of years passed between when she sees him again on Earth.

Appreciate the advice, anon. It'd be so much easier if I could just do the whole "imply conversation in the narration" thing Hussie does for them, but that doesn't exactly make for stirring conversation, does it?

I need to try to get a handle on her voice still and do a little more review, but I'd like to get to playing her from pre-Cascade at some point or another.
