Forums » Art & Creativity » Official Contest: Holiday Cheer

WHOA, I can't believe I missed that vocaroo link the first time around. Major points for bravery and enthusiasm, Cap'n! I'm utterly tickled to hear you singing an RPR Christmas carol!

Unfortunately, it's another "What Child is This" Rendition, but it'll hafta do for now! I'm thinkin' up another for later

In back rooms and In dorms at night
There are groups who meet nigh
With cards and papers Computers too
They gather for Roleplay

This! This is roleplaying
Making creatures; Imagining
Far off worlds And times unheard
Of in reality fading.

And when they meet With filled stat sheets
Behold our anthem Roleplaying!
We all are kings and all are queens
When posts are written in pages.

This! This is roleplaying
Making creatures Imagining
Far off worlds And times unheard
Of in reality fading.

So as the midnight Bells toll
Remember friends We all uphold
The dreamers dreams and communities
Of Roleplaying with friends and families.

RP Forums to the tune of Good King Wenceslas

One day while I browsed the net
I came upon this website
I clicked the link and then was set
Because I had found it!
A site with data all could view
About a "secret" subject
But it was something that I knew
I could never reject.

I clicked upon the FAQ
And this is what it showed me
"AN RP FORUM JUST FOR YOU!"
But it was just beginning!
Many people played here, too,
How could I say no?
I did not wait even a few
When I was caught in un-der-tow!

I looked into the groups setting
And saw it fit me quite well
It had a medieval feeling
And fit my type of style.
Creatures of all shapes and size
Dragons, werewolves, and Fae
I could hardly believe my eyes
Nor knew what to sa-a-ay.

I settled on a design for me
That met my personal standards
An ancient one who could not see,
A bard, who remained unconquered
Her voice like magic, spell-binding
And loved by most who met her
Her gentle soul and soothing song
Enlisted feeling be-e-tter.

Into the story, she commenced
To join the other creatures.
The tale became a legened hence
Of knights and kings and teachers.
They traveled years o'er land and sea
Seeking glory together
Whilst the bard set the scene
To memory forever.

For many years the group was strong,
And the friendships lasted
Even when the forums song
Began to wane and pas-sed.
We knew it was inevitable
And it was sad to see it go;
But our passion was stable
To reap more of what we'd so-o-own!

Wowzers, I had barely heard "What Child is This?" before now, and now it appears to be the song of the season!

You guys are amazingly prolific.

Idk why but when I read this I thought of this song

This isn't an entry, but I thought you guys might be tickled by this:

To the tune of Rocking around the Christmas Tree

RPing around with all my friends
At the Repository.
Everyone staying up real late
Having fun and losing sleep
RPing around with all my friends
Let's all discuss plots in chat
Later we'll talk about RL
And we'll LOL a lot.

You will see a lot of happy things when you're here
People laughing, playing, chatting
"Let's all be Excellent to each other!"

RPing around with all my friends
Having a great time wasting time
Ev'ryone being Excellent and
Enjoying the company

*instrumental*

You will be made right at home when you're here
"Welcome, have fun, we're your friends and
We love you, please enjoy your stay"

RPing around with all my friends
At the Repository
Excellence is really key
So go out and have some fun!

To the tune of 'joy to the world'!

Oh roll the dice, for the attack!
My orc wants to taste blood;
