INTRODUCTION This Guide came into Projection after the First Survey and our Staff went through the responses and saw the need of a Roleplaying Guide. This Guide was created to help current members, new members and visitors in how to Roleplay and how to do so effectively. By no means is this guide going to be exhaustive, covering ALL aspects of Roleplaying. Nontheless, it should give an idea on the art known as Roleplaying!
This Guide will be comprised by member tips and suggestions as well as general aspects that one needs to take into account when Roleplaying! |

Step 1:Signup
(a) Creating the Character
(b) Character Biography & Growth
(c) History
(d) PersonalityA Creating the Character
A critical piece of good role playing is the development of your character. You have to first create a character Your character needs to be something that you know and understand well. Part of role playing is writing, the other part is like acting. Just like any actor, you have to understand your character, and know what your character would do in each and every situation.B Character Biography & Growth
Once you have created your character and posted a bio, as you role play your character must grow and develop. You also need to keep in mind that you can't really just decide to change your character completely or do something "out" of character with them. Even as your character grows and changes there should be some certain traits that will remain consistent.
This does not go to say that there are not plot twists, they are recommended every so often as it adds 'spice' to someone's personal plot. This prevents you becoming bored of your own character, and chances are, if you are bored with your character, so would be others.C History
Your character history could be the moxt challenging part of signing up. This is simply because you are not thinking about what you want your character to become, but you are thinking about what your character was! However, this can be simplified!
Think about significant events that you want your character to remember. Ask yourself whether or not you want your character to be portrayed as humble, brave, strong, weak, girly, selfish and so on. Think about whether or not your character's history would directly affect the characters development or if the history would add a plot twist later.D Personality
Your character's personality is most pivotal. It is by the personality that your character will be described and will be known for. Try not to go with the ordinary personalities of being nice, bleak or merely cute. You can take these personalities a notch up, you can be described as the cold and bold girl with no care in the world, or a person with little or no personality at all, dont be afraid to experiment with this because if you don't, chances are, you won't be very well known by it! |
