Welcome! If you're new to RP I suggest taking a quick look at the advice in the "Better Roleplay for Everyone" section of the help area of the site.

What has you interested in roleplay? And I see you have ideas for plenty of OCs. What is your favorite character like?

I am interested in roleplay mainly because I find character interaction interesting! I am also using it as practice in preparation for my comic (That i should have up and going sometime next year).
As for favorite characters (I assume you mean Ocs??) I don't really have one aside from my vent character, Whom I don't plan on roleplaying with

Hi! So glad to have you with us on the site. :D

When getting started with RP, I really recommend this primer on basic RP concepts as a starting place. Even if you have some RP experience, it can be a nice way to see what the general norm is here.

When it comes to starting RPs, most people start in the Looking For RP forum to find some other players. There's also a search tool that will help you find what you're looking for within that forum - click "Find RP" in the top menu, then "join game" then scroll to the bottom to adjust your preferences for game types. If you want more info on using that search tool, here's a handy help article.

If you end up joining someone else's RP, they'll let you know the details about how to join in.

If you're starting up your own RP, you have a few choices about how to proceed once you've found a RP partner or two.
  1. You can just create a RP topic on one of our 3 public RP forums: General Roleplay, Sci-Fi Roleplay and Fantasy RP. Keep in mind that because these areas are public, you'll have to make sure the RP stays in the PG-13ish range.
  2. You can choose to RP via private messages, and just create a new conversation thread with all your RP partners as recipients. Since this is private, the only rules that tend to apply are not to do OOC illegal things and be nice to your RP partners OOC.
  3. If you're going to have a whole lot of people in your RP, or the RP setting is going to be very strictly defined and you want to have a place to store world building information alongside it, you might consider starting your own group. This gives you access to profile building tools for the group, but also to creating your very own forums!
  4. In some cases, you and your RP partner might even decide to use some other messenger or game to RP on.

By the by, you can use the "launch chat" button at the top and bottom of any forum topic, whether it's in a private group forum or our public RP forums, to turn your topic into a real time chat! There's also a link in the sidebar of private messages that will let you do the same.

This is a pretty big site with a lot of features and areas, so if you have a question, there's a few ways to get help. Firstly, sometimes just typing a question into the search box will get you the info you need, or you can look at the categories in the help section. If you can't find it there, everyone here is awesome and friendly. Please don't hesitate to ask for help if you need it!

Yo! Welcome here!!
Well then, it's good to have you here! I'm Lucree. But you can call me Light or Lotus! Welcome to RPR!

I see you've already gotten some really useful pointers. But now for the really important question: ...What is your favorite animal? Okay, so not important at all, actually. XD But it's still nice to know!

I really hope you enjoy yourself here! Feel free to ask us if you have any questions!
