That's a pretty hefty task...


I'm guessing in terms of words, she's looking for 500/600+ c:

    500 words isn't that much xD I do it on a regular basis.
    Aya's really nice anyway, and her posts aren't honestly that long.

500 isn't much, I agree c: it would be a lot to expect of people to post every day, but I would think you could pump out a 500 word reply within a week. I would love to do a rp with somebody where we would post like 1000 words per reply omg, but I think that would be very difficult if you were trying to interct with other characters?

And Aya's super nice too, I agree c':

If anybody has a rp based on His Dark Materials, or something similar, PM me please? Or something based on Atlantis? Or something based on A Song of Ice and Fire/A Game of Thrones? (No spoilers in the GOT rp though, haven't finished season 3 and I'm only 70 pages from finishing the first book ;A;)

Oh goodness. Who was it that made that centaur rp ages ago? I remember you got a randomly selected character who had a rank and very few traits as well as prebuilt relations. I really want to make something like this only with warrior cats. Time to make plots.

Pumping out 500 words isn't what I find intimidating, it's making those 500 words relevant and interesting without leaving someone behind or assuming a large portion of their actions. If your character is having a conversation, it's rather hard to predict answers for an entire conversation, isn't it? Or if characters are fighting?

I'm fairly new to RPing so it's probably my inexperience speaking there. xd

I so want to give this a shot. It would be an awesome way to amp up my writing and to try and balance a post.
Having serious issues viewing dark colours at the moment. May delay replys to pms. Sorry.

The Leopard Pups
Grey, Black and White. The world revolves and we go with it. Twisting in this everlasting monotony, eyes of green and gold, watching and waiting for our chance, our time. Cytor, Liliana, Serenade, Bayonet, the Prankster, the sweet one, the mother and the lost soul. There birth was a lost event, one in a million, two wandering souls met in the shadows, and these four were created. There pups are the stuff of legend, one lost there sight, one lost there path, one lost there love and the other? The other lost his family, everyone they cared about. He lost his family.

I have to agree, the longer a post gets, the harder it is to interact.
I find that partners who give me several paragraphs every single response usually only end up giving my character a question or two. The rest ends up being fluff.

Nah, when I was newer I thought more was always better, even with fluff. But I now realize its really not at all
