Anything Out There For A Beginner Like Me?

Genre: I'm more or less open to trying out anything since I've never done this before but I'm more interested in things like anime, fantasy or slice of life. which is based on a original story or setting and not any fandoms (since I'm really bad at remembering everything in fandoms). But if it's not any of those genres, and still original with enough information on the story and not complex, I'll be quick to check it out.
Difficulty: Beginners or medium? (Preferably beginner.)
Type of Creatures: Humans or humanoid anything.
Preferred Rating: Pg 13 please!
Preferred Number of Members/Activity: A small or medium size? Like I said I've never done this before so this doesn't matter as much but I want to find one that I can feel included in.
Preferred Time: Not specific, but should have enough information on the setting and time for me to get a general idea on how to rp well.

Other Notes: Well, I do write stories in my free time even if I've never done any RPing and I do lurk on RP sites and read RP entries to get ideas on how to do things.

Hey! Glad you posted a request. I'm Bee and I have two sites. My newer and smaller site might be a great place to get some practice and break into RP.

It's on Earth, a little in the future, and all humans. I'm more than willing to do total walk-throughs for anything to get started. There's a chatbox on the lefthand side of the site. You can pop up there with any questions you have.

Here's all the relevant info for you! The banner in my signature is our ad. Links below the synopsis should give you all the basics.

Synopsis: Ante Diluvium is set about 100 years in the future and science has gotten out of control. The industry has been privatized, so nearly all research and development is done for commercial purposes. It isn’t all evil science. In many ways, science has been able to help people by curing diseases and improving quality of life. But it hasn’t helped all people. Compounds have been built as mini cities centered around research facilities. The rest of the world has been left to waste.

Well you might want to give Nexus Point a chance. We have three open RPGs. We're on the small side and we are below the number of your required active members, but I believe that we make up for that in others areas.

I am offering you the real life of the Age of Sail, with plenty of swashbuckling adventures. The site goes strong since August 2010, so it’s bound to stay around… If you like a historical site, you would fit well “Before the Mast”. We have several people who haven't roleplayed until our site, and they are helped, as well as people whose mother tongue is not English. We are friendly and welcoming!

You may choose any playby you want, and character opportunities abound: we have 4 ships of various allegiances to crew and islands belonging to the French and British crown to populate. Mostly adult characters, teenagers do exist, but they are rare. Men aboard any ship are strongly recommended as first characters.

For those who are fans of secrets, we have these too; almost nobody is what they seem to be: the tavern owners and barmaids are spying for the pirates, the French governor is involved in shady deals with the pirates, the youngest British Navy sailor is a girl in disguise, the now allies have a blood feud between them, the new privateer captain has killed the previous one in a mutiny…

What we offer:

- A friendly writing community, without OOC drama or cliques, with friendly and dedicated staff, in a game which has won RPG-D and RPG-U Forum of the Fortnight/ respectively Month awards.

- An original real life site within a historical setting, without magic/ special powers.

- a semi-advanced to advanced site, with help for the newbies provided. Word count is of one paragraph, not diffficult to achieve, given that not everybody has English as mother tongue, but there are enough people who post 400 words or more (without any requirement of matching posts).

- The site is rated PG-13 (L2-S2-V2), so it is not really limiting. In the spirit of those years, mature temes such as sex, violence, abuse exist, without explicit scenes (fade to black required).

- A wild variety of plots and subplots where everybody can find something to his or her liking

- Special community events and a monthly newsletter focusing on plots, characters and players.

- Help with character applications and quick approval

- Extensive information regarding the historical facts – no more torturing the poor Google on your own!

What we are looking for:

Dedicated and interested players. While we understand that real life comes first, it is also true, that a roleplaying game is a community project and other players might desperately wait for you to post. Therefore, we are looking for players, who are willing and able to post regularly. Activity requirement is posting at least once a week in each thread you have (unless you post an "away" notice - we understand about holidays, exams, etc.).

We are medium active (new posts every day, but not in every thread).

We don't expect you to be a history professor or anything, just to be willing to learn and to keep your character true to the historical circumstances.

Yes, BEFORE THE MAST wants YOU!

PLOT|| CREW LIST|| FACE CLAIM|| NEWBIE GUIDE

It’s 1719 in the West Indies. War time, and pirates are also on the prowl. Sea fights, duels, plenty of swashbuckling adventures, intrigues of all kinds, mutiny, romance, betrayal – “Before the Mast” brings to live the Age of Sail like none before. Be ye a pirate, a naval officer, a slave or a lady, you will find a place aboard one of our four ships or live on a paradise island.

There is no Sparrow here, mate. Enjoy our gritty, realistic historical setting if you like learning about those times while getting immersed in weaving our original story.

Come live with us BEFORE THE MAST, sharpen your blades, load your guns, and drain that last sip of rhum!

You may like Tellius. We're definitely, definitely open to beginners. I love welcoming newbies to the fold and helping people out. In fact, one of my newest members has never before roleplayed and she's been getting along great on the forum! Tellius is a fantasy roleplay with anime face claims, although face claims are not mandatory and don't have to be used at all, so if that's not your thing, that's cool, too. We don't have a word count and the application process is very simple and very short--I don't ask you to list a whole bunch of information so you can get to know your character by playing them. If you want to write extended biographies, the choice is there, too, with our member sub-forums. You can write anything you like in there and you're a moderator to it so you can move, lock, delete, whatever you want with your topics.

There are about 10 or so regular members you'll see, so we're not huge, but we are fairly active with posts usually made each day. The lack of a word count produces everything from one-liners to essasy sized posts and we're all welcoming of any amount of words, so no need to be nervous if you write a one-liner in response to somebody's five paragraph starter.

However, we are not rated PG-13. We're more rated R/M aroundabouts.

If you're interested, you can find us at Tellius.

Hey there! Visionary Tales is perfect for beginners, as we welcome players of all experience levels. (In fact, I'd never roleplayed before in my life when I started there, and I've come so far in three years. So I can attest that it's great in this regard.) We're multi-genre, meaning you can write in your favourite areas and settings, and all plots and characters are yours to dictate, too. Essentially, we have as few restrictions and rules as possible; it's about cultivating a creative, fun, relaxing setting where you can write. I'll admit, we're a little on the large side and can seem overwhelming, but we do our very best to embrace every new joiner and make them feel included, and that's why we've grown so large. ^^;

So! Please, feel free to take a look, and if you have any questions, PM me here on the 'D or peek into VT's Cbox. Would absolutely love to welcome you into the fold and help you learn how to roleplay. <3

How do ... steampunk.. fantasy.. sky pirates sound to you? Steamhawke offers a place in a crew of misfits, always seeking treasure and adventure. We'd be helpful to a beginner, but if you are writing on your own already, I don't think you'd need much coaching with us. You can even write solo posts! You can read more about how we write using Nova 2 in our Starting Guide.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

Not going to post a massive advert topic because I do not feel the need. It is simple. We are currently holding a role play @ http://writerbb.info/index.php (there will be many others to as it is a open role playing forum) You take the part of a teenager who is with a group of friends in a town center and a nuke bomb is about to hit. Your mission is to get out alive.

Have you seen MVC, by any chance? We're intermediate to advanced but we wouldn't write off a beginner just because. We're Sci-fi Futurisitic and use artwork or anime[ish] images which may tickle your fancy. We're also new so there's not much of a wave to get swept away in [meaning you needn't feel dwarfed or something]. Also, our rating is PG-18 because we allow the implication of certain adult situations and professions, [but we do the fade to black thing here if it gets hot and heavy].

Anyway, the link is in my siggy and good luck hunting, duder! Ciao!

I believe I have just may have the home for you! Anubis Scripts is a multigenre roleplay community for writers, by writers. There are no word counts, although we would *like* at least one paragraph, but don't go around threatening our members with wooden spoons demanding it, and offer each other the respect, dignity, and camaraderie we all deserve. We are PG-13 to mature, but all mature topics are marked clearly with [M] in the title, and our members are free to choose which rating level of play they are most comfortable with.

The members of Anubis Scripts welcome you to explore our site and talk with us in the chat located at the top of the forum, and make yourself at home as the newest member of our community at http://anubisscripts...t-fantasies.net

Imaginers* is a PG-13 original anime fantasy roleplay. We accept all difficulties, so beginners are welcome. That covers most of the tags, yeah?

So, more detail! The roleplay takes place in two places: a town of two million people, and the fantasy realm attached to it. We've got two creatures, humans and nonhumans, and they're separated into four classes (the humans can be one of three, the nonhumans are a class on their own). Our community is very welcoming; if you hop into the Cbox and say hi (or post a greeting in the forum), you're bound to get someone replying to you. If you have any questions, we're willing to help you out and point you in the right direction, although we've had a few members say that our information 'covered all the bases', so there's that.

You're welcome to check the site and see if it's to your liking. Thanks in advance!

We're actually a really small community and we love new members!
And beginners are acceptable! Hope you could say hello in the cbox!
We Come Undone has both but its more of a clash between the two species.
Check it out!

Thank you plenty guys! I'll be sure to check them out! I never knew there so much interesting ones out there to join. Thanks! :D

Hello!

You might like to consider Zoanthrope Investigations, which is about a police team who’re trying to keep shape shifters secret from “normal” humans in a made up UK city called Killamarsh.

* I like to describe us as real life with a furry twist, but you could label us as a lot of other different genres as well, such as humour, horror, police, supernatural and urban and/or modern fantasy.
* We are open to everybody, but appear to attract “intermediate” and “advanced” role-players the most. We love beginners too though, and love to help them out!
* Our playable “races” are “normal” humans and shape shifters of all sorts.
* We possess a very loose PG-13 rating, but are open minded. Hardcore sexual or gory threads are clearly marked or password protected. We’re okay with most dark/mature/adult themes and subjects.
* We’re reliable and won't die by next week, proof of this being our three years running.
* We don’t have a word count, preferring quality over quantity.
* We have about 20 members on the board, a family feel and consistent, daily activity.
* We’re based in the present.
* ZI’s very lucky and privileged to have a friendly and mature community, who love new people! You’re warmly welcome to say hello and/or ask questions in the Cbox if you get the opportunity to lurk the board.
* We have a Buddy System, where an established member takes a new one under their wing, and helps them get to know the site and its community, as well as role-play and/or plot with them.
* We have regular site wide plots and events, which are open to absolutely everybody. Also, you’re warmly welcome to role-play your own creative personal plots.
* We’re open to characters of all ethnicities, mentalities and sexual orientations.

Here’s our advert:

Good luck with your search!

Lost and Found Broken might work! It's an original post-apocalyptic site. I'm not sure where I would set the skill level, because it is a literate site, but there's no word count. Players of all abilities are welcome, though. There are zombies running around, but played characters are humans.

The site just opened, so activity isn't very high, but there are active threads every day.

I hope you'll check it out!

I think Deadlight might be just what you're looking for =). It's very much a fantasy/supernatural setting (although somewhat as if fantasy were introduced to the real world), but I'm not sure that word fits it completely. It's set in present day New York (for the most part), with a lot of praeternatural creatures, mythological influences, superpowered people, fables and the like, but we have plenty of humans also. When it comes down to it, we're open to just about any kind of praeternatural creature, human or mythological being, with the exception of gods (and that's largely because on the board, for the most part, the gods' time has passed) < 3. The board is super active and it carries an evolving story, which is the driving factor of the board, I feel. Buuut. For the most part, I think I'm going to let it speak for itself ^^.

Let me offer up Magical Chaos!!

We are a Original Magical Fantasy based in a modern day land with medieval weapons/transportation. The basic plot it Good vs Evil between the Land of Magicoz and the City of Zaqqum.

We are a mature board that welcomes characters of all species, genders, races and sexual orientations, there is no word count and pb are anime/cartoon/manga/hand drawn or dolls (complements of Lily Lilac). Or you can use the good old fashion written descriptions.

Check us out and see if we are a good fit for you

[No WC] [Easy Application] [Friendly Staff] [Anime PB] [Mature Board]

Welcome All to the Battle Between Good and Evil

Magicoz is not your ordinary country; it is full of unique and supernatural beings. Demons lurk in every shadow, Angels watch over the land, and Humans are gifted with special abilities. Seven Realms make up this grand country, each with their own elements; Fire, Water, Wind, Snow, Earth, Light and Dark and a protective guardian watching over it, but there is one who watches over them all. A Young Empress watches over her people to keep them happy and safe, yet those of the dark realm wish to cause mayhem and destruction to those fighting in the lighter realms.

There is also a City of Death, beyond the borders of Magicoz; The City of Zaqqum. Ruled over by the dark and vicious princess of hell, she strives for the complete obliteration of Magicoz. The ever constant battle between Light and Dark is growing fierce and war between Magicoz and Zaqqum is growing. Who will triumph over the other? Who has what it takes to fight for what they believe in? Join this battle of wit, deception and ultimate power to see who the victor is, once and for all.
