Forums » RP Discussion » Strangest Fandom RPs?

I'm kinda curious as to the experience folk have had on here with regards to fandoms in RP, whether playing canon characters in that fandom, or original characters in the AU.

So I may as well go first! The oddest ones I can recall (I'm not even sure they're that odd) have been Team Fortress 2, Pokemon (RPing as sentient pokemon, not trainers), Magic the Gathering, and World of Warcraft.

Pokemon can be rather normal if you keep a happy pace with it and not borderline ew territory. As for sentient Pokemon? It could be a Mystery Dungeon type roleplay where the Pokemon talk and humans are absent.

Strange Rps?

RPing random objects? Legos? I seen Lego Rps before. I seen Miis, as in the Nintendo Avatars be RPed before as well. Gaiaonline RPs. Avatars and Gaia NPCs included are uncanny.

I mean, I'm not totally sure what you would define strange. There is a fandom for everything. Heck, recently there's been an outburst of a fandom for Lazytown. Lazytown.

RPs can come from anywhere after all.

Sentient Pokemon are actually Canon. We have Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, plus, aren't you forgetting Meowth? (That's Right!) From the anime?

Anyway. For RPs that I consider weird, is, and I might get shot down for it, Certain kind of MLP role-plays. You must know what ones I'm taking about right.
Or generally, any fandom RP that involves mischaracterisation are the "strangest" for me.

I've also had some bad experiences with generally really shitty people in fandoms too. Some of which I'd rather not talk about. It's mostly the bad apples in fandoms that are the worst thing about fandoms, honestly.

Thank you both for your responses! I should have been clearer- I was actually curious about strange fandom rps folk have PERSONALLY played in. I listed my own. Was curious how deep the rabbit hole goes

Don't forget some movie Pokemon as well!

I think Lazy Town Rpers are just memelords whatever. I mean. I seen someone RP Granddad from The Pirated Mario game.

As for bad experiences, I had some as well. Allot ended up with sneering and harassment in the past. Due to people not playing their character right or acting like prima donas.

*whistles*

Oh, good times...

Good times playing as an overpowered NCR Ranger from Fallout New Vegas apparently working for Giovanni on a mission to capture a pair of sentient Mew and Mewtwo (from another player) while two (immortal) Hetalia nations fought against such Ranger trying to defend the Pokémon but just giving him more reasons to pull stronger and bigger weapons until Zero himself, from Megaman Zero, teletransported to Giovanni's location, decapitated him and brought it back for the Ranger, just to receive a "Who's going to pay me now? This time its personal, guys~!" as response.

... Good times indeed.

I used to play with someone who RPed a medievalish version of Louis Potgieter from the band Dschinghis Khan. Good times.

My god the explosion of random and awesome

Now THAT'S epic.

Heck, we even had our own fanbar.

I would love to jump into Pokemon Rp...
but I also long for rp based in One Piece, Fairy Tale or Elder Scrolls/Skyrim... To name a few.

OH GOOD GOLLY JENKINS HAVE I GOT AN RP FOR YOU.

Here's a story from one of the most memorable and random RPs i've ever been in. This was on plaza at the time when it was actually populated.

It began like this, me RPing as Draz in the Great Forest, with some other people. I'm a little foggy on the details at the beginning, but eventually sometime one of me arms got chopped off. I grew it back later and now a masked man riding a giant freakin' snake kidnapped the hybrid girl and me and M had to go save her.

We were in suddenly in a populated city, complete with skycrapers and a freakin' cave in the middle of it where the man was hiding. After a fight DBZ style with like five different giant snakes we finally managed to defeat the guy, and now we somehow ended up in Italy while M and the hybrid girl were up on the tower having a chat.

Later we gone to like some restaurant and then some other players joined up and later I was having a fight with Goku and his Dad. It was strangely epic. And after a few minutes of fighting, Draz chimed in after overhearing something about Goku and his Dad not being evil, and stopping to ask, and then receiving a punch immediately after followed by "then why are we fighting?!".

Next thing I know, we were following a path on the battlefield led to a floating castle in the sky where a wolf king deity and his robot wolf son lived. The End.

...

Ok, so I got like, two, in particular to mention

The first was my very first Rp when I was like 10-13(I don't remember how old I was). At the time I was crazy into a game called Viva Pinata, and found a forum for it. I joined after a while of lurking and begun rp'ing. I made an RP based off of a Crocodile pinata(The pinatas were called Cocoadiles, and this particular Cocoadile was called Coc) that happened to be a Pigmy. I don't remember the story, and since the forum is shut down I can't go look for it, but for some reason a sour(IE Evil) Cocoadile named Scythe(Super edgy guys) got involved in the story, and I don't remember what happened after that. And then Romance happened at like, the very end of the rp. I kinda wish I remembered more of the story, cause I feel like it would be entertaining to read about.

The second weirdest one is still going on. It's a Star Wars rp where our characters are Sith Lords from the Old Republic era that were sent forward in time(My friend's character through a mis used Sith Ritual, and mine through cryo stasis) to the time of the Clone Wars and they have super major changes to the story and stuff.

Outside of those two, I really can't think of any strange rp's I've been in.

Probably the one where I was support to be a character with a certain gender, then halfway through the game the other people changed their gender of the character and since it was a romance and they didn't think it would be practical, they asked me to change my character around to be male so I left. I left because my character was Haruhi from ouran, and just.....just dude...it wouldn't have had story.

I have seen and been in a Neo pets Rp.

We rped our own Neopets, so I was some angry, feral Tyraninnian Aisha who kept clawing people's faces and clothing.

Then the Aisha stole a rocket and flew off.

Fun times.

Oh my god yes. This mess. The legend from 2011 xD Oh my god.

The year is 2002. A 17 year old Texan is playing a mute slave on Furcadia, when he gets into a brawl with Jared Nomack from Blade 2.
Somehow my character managed to avoid getting bit, and despite many broken bones and internal organ damage, he grabbed the Reaper King by the tongue and proceeded to headbutt him into submission.... Good times...
