Rundown: 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.

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 be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
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.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

premise	locations	world changes	regains	calendar	mod contact
main - network - ooc - meme Today is just another day, or maybe it's even your lucky day. Maybe you wake up in time to hear your favorite song on the radio. Maybe you find a five-dollar bill on the sidewalk during your morning commute. No matter what everyone you pass greets you with a smiling face. The city is at peace, but you can’t shake the feeling that something doesn't feel quite right. It's almost as though something isn’t exactly as you remember...but that's silly, isn't it? Everything else is still the same. You're surrounded by the same buildings and people you've always known. All of the comforts of home are right at your fingertips. Are you feeling all right? Maybe you should take it easy today. Rest assured, there’s really nothing to worry about at all… Recollé is a pan-fandom mem-loss and regain game taking place in a modern setting. On an Earth similar to the one we know, characters live out their daily lives as they believe they always have. However, it soon becomes clear that this world isn't as familiar as they think it is. With an ever-changing environment and an even deeper mystery to solve, characters must work to not only regain memories of their former selves but to help decide the fate of this and many other worlds lost.

GAME IDEAS

Panfandom fantasy afterlife

[(Anonymous)]

Have most of the writing and setup complete, just getting cold feet and wanting to gauge interest. Panfandom game set in a fantasy-type setting with politics, PvP, battles, courts, and player advancement, and hard ending date of 12 months with a pretty deep plot. I want it to also be very SoL friendly for people who just like the setting and don't want to worry about other elements.

No AC, but activity gets rewards. Doubles of characters accepted, first come first serve. No app challenges. Rolling apps, and a streamlined app to make it easy to come and go with new characters. Accounts that haven't posted to logs in 60 or 90 days get purged. No permadeath, but consequences can be powerloss, memloss, etc.

Simplified premise,

Once, long ago, the lands of the afterlife were unformed, and shrouded by fog. A land of unmoving grey landscapes, confusion, and despair, ruled by Death and populated with his servants and the dead. At his discretion, souls might be destroyed, or given leave to ascend and be reincarnated. His reign went long unchanged.

But an enterprising soul discovered that the souls of others could be consumed for power. That power could change the landscape. That the afterlife itself could be altered, and even Death's powers emulated. The source of his power was not kept secret for long, and the ages of war and strife that covered the afterlife saw the rise of great and terrible spirits who fought each other for pride, for control, and for mastery the world.

Seeing his power over his subjects deteriorating, Death split his lands, and made the most powerful of those warring spirits his lords, sharing a piece of his domain with them all... and grooming them each to battle the others, endlessly.

Only... the most ancient legends whisper that one day the time will come that a soul shall not be satisfied by these or any other powers. The a truly great soul shall ascend the path of power and usurp Death's dark crown.

- - -

Your character is dead. And after their death, will awake in the afterlife, in Death's Hall of Souls. Death himself will usher your character into the afterlife, judging their acts in life and assigning them as vassals to one of his great lords.

What your character does after this is up to them. They may live in the Afterlife as they see fit, adjusting to the strange new world and living how they please. They may seek to serve their Lord, battling other souls, and using their service and deeds to be granted the right to reincarnate. Or they may seek to increase their own power, gaining allies and learning how to displace the Lord who rules them.

Your character may be dead: but that does not mean that they cannot feel pain, loss, joy, or love. There is still much to gain... and much to lose. What path will they choose?

Guild Wars 2

[sockersock]

I'd like to do some Guild Wars 2 stuff, if anybody is interested! Mostly light-hearted stuff, maybe some shippy stuff too. I'm especially fond of Canach/Sylvari Commander and Trahearne/pretty much anyone. I've got journals for Trahearne and a Sylvari Commander, and I could easily make journals for other characters too.

Re: KINKS YOU WANT TO PLAY

Reposting this to see if anyone is interested.

An alien is sent to Earth to study humans and learn as much about them as possible. Said alien is disguised as a human. During this time, the alien befriends a human and eventually shares the truth about themselves with their human friend. Human friend accepts this, and they continue being friends.

Eventually the topic of sex comes up and the alien asks the human friend for some 'hands-on experience.' Possible kinks could include transformation and weird alien genitalia, but that's optional.

I'd prefer to play the alien (I already have a guy in mind for it), and I'd prefer M/M for this too. This would be a longer roleplay too, as I would like to play out the alien and the human becoming friends and learning all sorts of cool stuff about Earth and humans before getting to the sex part. Leave a sock here if you're interested.

pm me at mrsock if you're interested.

Re: K-POP THREAD

i adore wjsn's secret. i liked it so much i decided to start following the group. other than that i really liked mamamoo's decalcomanie. unfortunately i don't really listen to albums these days, which is a shame, because there are probably a lot of good songs that aren't the ones getting promoted.

also goblin's soundtrack is nice.

aight help me out rpanon kenobi, does anyone remember a game or was there ever a game that required a tdm thread to reserve? i might be imagining this, so i'd like to know if i'm crazy or not

Re: log in...

[darthvaderfanboy]

I'm knee-deep in YA fiction right now. Reading the last book of The Maze Runner series and about a quarter of the way into the second book of the Shatter Me series. The Maze Runner seems to be a case of good ideas with shoddy execution. The world building always seems a little vague, characters and their motivations seem to get retconned whenever the author gets a better idea, but the ending was better than I was expecting, and the first prequel had a great twist at the end.

Shatter Me I'm currently on the fence about. The main character makes a lot more sense if she's interpreted as being literally crazy rather than just skittish and traumatized. Her boyfriend is bland Generic Rebel Guy Protagonist #23, much like Gale from The Hunger Games. I much prefer her other contender for love interest if only because he's an interesting bad guy. I do like the strikeouts in the text, since it makes it a bit more interesting to read.

Is it weird that every so often, I wish I was in a game that never really gets off the ground and fails? I love my games, and I'm in them for the long haul, but the end game for both of them is probably at least two or three years away. Sometimes, that feels a little exhausting when I look at my character list and only want to play one for a few months at the most. I wish there was a nice balance between a game that never gets off the ground and the ones that run for years on end.

[(Anonymous)]

iirc there's games out there that are set on a very small timeline too, maybe including just a few months

like all those murdergames that cropped up recently, off the top of my head? though i haven't looked into those too much

[(Anonymous)]

so, what's a good first game? i'm not new to rp, just the dreamwidth brand of it.

[(Anonymous)]

what are you looking for, anon? there are a lot of games out there, so narrowing it down to the sort of genre you enjoy/types of plot you think you'd enjoy engaging with/really you just want to have your characters make out and/or bang people will help us give you good direction to something you're more likely to actually have fun with.

[(Anonymous)]

what happens if multiple people on your timeline replurk the same original plurk?

like if you're friends with a people in the same game and they all replurk the mod plurk's announcement that apps are open

does it appear multiple times on your timeline or what? does the most recent replurk appear on your timeline? if you mute it when someone replurks it at 1 pm and somebody replurks it at 2 pm, does it appear again unmuted?

[(Anonymous)]

It doesn't appear multiple times, but it can unmute itself as people replurk it.

i feel really guilty when i buy things for myself, but the thing is that i don't have any bills going unpaid and i don't have any issues getting necessities, either. but today i spent $40 basically just treating myself to random things i just wanted, but i don't feel great about it. the kicker is that it's my birthday tomorrow, i work all day and won't have a chance to celebrate, but i still feel awful for spending money on things i don't need. :(

anyone else feel this?
