[Bryndale]

Hello and welcome to your novice role play thread! My name is GreenStreet and I will be your proctor. Together we will get through this level and get you prepared for your exams and advancement to the next level! *applause*

What do we want to learn in this level?
• We will learn to create in depth characters
• We will learn to create smooth posts with appropriate punctuation and grammar (including quotation marks and the like)
• We will learn to expand our posts and never make one liners or dead-enders

Some things to remember:
•When you are speaking out of character, use double parenthesis around your comment ((...))
•When your character speaks, you may want to make the text bold, as this will help seperate it from the regular text. This isn't mandatory, but it is very helpful for some
•Proctors will write up their comments in blue

This thread has been created for
• Bunny
• Citric
• Dreamsnare

Before we start to role play…
We need some characters! As was preciously mentioned, one of the aims of this level is to teach you to consider every aspect of your character, thus creating a well developed character who has some sustenance to him or her. To begin with this, we at the RP school have created a basic outline that you may expand on (but not subtract from).

Once you’ve created your characters and have had them reviewed and approved by the proctor, you can begin your role play….

Role Play
Okay! You guys have all chosen to do a fantasy type role-play, and that is what we will be focusing on. To start you on your role play adventure, I have written up a prompt. Please continue with it, keeping in mind everything that is included in it.


Promt:

The sky was drab and grey, and the towering trees all-bare, save for the icicles that stabbed down from their branches like daggers towards the earth. The lake was frozen, and not a soul was stirring, save for one – a lone unicorn, white as the snow she stood on, trying to crack through the thick ice to get at the cool water within. Something snapped and the unicorn bolted, feet pounding through the powdery snow.

If you have any questions please feel free to send me or another proctor a pm! Also, if ever you feel like you are not able to post regularly and/or want to drop out, please pm me as well so that we may carry on without you.

Dreamsnare:
Interesting character Dreamsnare! Only a few things need correction: the first is ethnicity. Atheist is not an ethnicity, it’s a religious view lol. An Ethnicity would be something like “Irish” or “Malaysian”

I love that you’ve made him fearful of many things, as it will lead to some awesome insights to the character in your posts. He also has an interesting personality, but do be warned that his reluctance to talk may make it harder to forward the plot, so I’m eager to see how you’ll work around that =D

I must also compliment you on how detailed you are with your character’s physical appearance! It makes it very easy for us as readers to picture your character, and will make it easy for you as the rper to subtly reveal your character’s looks through your posts. Great job!!!!

[Versa_Mythology]

Thank you!! I'm glad that you like him lol. I will fix my character's Ethnicity now

(I will post soon ^_^)

Personality:
Isabelle might looked sweet, nice, and completely innocent, but she would defiantly do something idiotic and crazy, like bungee jumping of a sky scraper, sky diving, or just going to drug filled parties till five AM.
First impressions are a big thing for her, whether it's meeting her new boyfriend's parents (though parents always seem to think she's the perfect person) or the guy of her dreams.
Though parents always seem to think she's the perfect person.
sabelle is a great conversationalist. One of her many talents is her ability to get along with almost anyone she meets through the use of her conversational skills.

Goals in life:
(Thinking of one )
General Past:
Her parents had divorced when she was twelve, her dad being a complete drug addict, she now just lives with her mom.
Her dad visits occasionally, though her mom has a restraining order against him, so he's usually drunk.
Guess that's where she got her first beer, she loves alcohol, but drugs not as much. She just doesn't have an addicting personality, unlike her dad.
Isabelle has always loved to paint, her dad tried to sell them on the street, but she got them back, occasionally.
She now just likes to keep them to herself, the only blocked part of her is her artwork.
After a while, she had traveled to a strange world.
She had seen quick movements, they flashed before her eyes until she heard the slow breathing of something behind her.
She turned around just to see the wolves gleaming eyes coming at her, looking hungry.
Ever since then, some way, she had been able to shift into a wolf form.
Past Things They Regret:
Running away from her house, leaving her family behind for severe dangers.
Past Things They Are Happy With:
Her fresh start in life, the feeling of freedom.
Family life:
Alcoholic dad, scared mom, divorced family, run away chid

Other:
None

Nice character so far! The only thing I have to say is always go back and re-read your post (this should be taken into account by everyone!) By going back and reviewing your post, you can pick out holes and grammatical errors. It's well written and obviously well thought out, but there are several missing commas, misplaced periods, and mispelt words.

I'd also like to point out the hole: She's willing to bungee jump and go to drug parties, and yet she doesn't like either: heights are her greatest fear. Why is that? Is it because she succumbs to peer pressure? Or something else? Once those are fixed up, you'll have a good, solid character!
