Link to sample roleplay post: The Descent

Signing up to be a mentee!!

Username: SoullessGinger or Ell (as far as referring to me goes) whichever you’d prefer

Have you roleplayed on YWS before?:
Yes, and I’m pretty sure it was after revamp because I’m relatively new and don’t really know when the revamp was.
If you have, what is your preferred level of roleplaying?:
Honestly, I’m fine with any type, but I think I’d prefer Realm, (although I’d be down with joining a Storybook) because while I’ve only written in one RP on here, I play an ungodly amount of Dungeons and Dragons irl.
Do you prefer speed or quality?
A mixture of both, frankly. Quality is important because I really like reading back over what we’ve written as a team long term. Speed is just because I really enjoy RPing and it’s fun so doing it often is ideal.
Link to sample roleplay post: I don’t really know how to link a specific post from a roleplay. But there’s a couple of mine here. The Land of the Eternally Bound (If someone would be willing to point me in the direction of how to link a specific post, I can definitely come back here and edit it in-the one I’m trying to link is a few posts down on the page currently linked)

What is your preferred genre?:
Fantasy and Adventure. But I’m also down to try post apocalyptic or anything with action.
Would you like to create the RP and be the DM? If so, do you need an idea?:
Maybe in the future, but for now I’d prefer to be a player.
Including yourself, would you prefer a group of 2, 3, 4, or more in a roleplay?:
A group of 3-5 is ideal for me I think.
Any other information we need to know?:
Nope, not really! Excited to get started!

Hey, this isn’t an intro, but when are we gonna get our pairings?

@Ignorance we'll be working on pairings and groupings as soon as we can! Stay tuned ^^ if you're itching to get a partner before our groupings and see someone you really wanna rp with, definitely feel free to chat with them!

Username: GrandWild

Have you roleplayed on YWS before?: [if yes, clarify if only before/after revamp] Yep! Both before and after the revamp.

If you have, what is your preferred level of roleplaying?: [beginner (Hollow), intermediate (Realm), advanced (SBs)] [mention if no preference, or multiple preferences] I'm most comfortable in intermediate and beginner.

Do you prefer speed or quality?: [can be mixture of both] Why not both? It depends on my mood.

Link to sample roleplay post: From If I Had a Heart

What is your preferred genre?: Fantasy.

Would you like to create the RP and be the DM? If so, do you need an idea?: I'm afraid not.

Including yourself, would you prefer a group of 2, 3, 4, or more in a roleplay?: 2 minimum, 4 max.

Username: QuoolQuo

Do you have an original character (OC)?: I suppose I do have one...

Spoiler

Name: Neophytos (17, he/him)

Appearance: Skin is a dark olive from his hours out in the sun and hair is dark as oak wood.

Brief rundown: Not exactly the most outgoing soul in the world, prefers to be left by himself in his garden tending plants. His father is a potter in the region of Arcadia, Ancient Greece, and his mother is rumoured to be a flower nymph thus the reason why he is so good with plants, though he has never met her. Uses the broken and discarded pots to grow his plants in and cares for them more than anything else in the world.

Do you prefer speed or quality?: I guess speed in the sense that it doesn't take a month but also quality in that there's plenty of time to have something well-written (though not necessarily perfect)

What is your preferred genre?: I don't really mind, in fact, I wouldn't mind branching out

Including yourself, would you prefer a group of 2, 3, 4, or more in a roleplay?: I don't really mind

Any other information we need to know?: I have a soft spot for absurdism

Username:ForeverYoung299

Would you like to create the RP and be the DM? If so, do you need an idea?:I would prefer not to.

Any other information we need to know?:Um...No.

Hope I´m not too late.

Username: MailicedeNamedy, but Mailice is fine.

Do you have an original character (OC)?: I can invent a new character for the roleplay, otherwise an old character I once created.

Spoiler

Antonia, 22 is a reclusive queen who lives in her summer palace on an island in a large lake next to a small town. Last time she had left the island was when she was eight years old. She loves nature and is interested in botany and reads a lot to discover the world from books. She has many gardens and greenhouses and can usually be found there.

Do you prefer speed or quality?: I prefer quality over speed.

What is your preferred genre?: Romance, Mystery, or Fantasy.

Including yourself, would you prefer a group of 2, 3, 4, or more in a roleplay?: A group of 2 or 3 would be good for the start.

Any other information we need to know?: I don´t think so.

Below are the first pairings!

GROUP 1: @Ignorance, @ForeverYoung299
GROUP 2: @LittleLee, @QuoolQuo, @WrenZorya
GROUP 3: @Vincian, @ImaginativeAlice, @Valkyria, @MailicedeNamedy
GROUP 4: @InuYosha, @GrandWild
GROUP 5: @sakeofvanity05, @HarryHardy, @ShadowVyper, @SoullessGinger
GROUP 6: @Liminality, @Spearmint, @AlmostImmortal, @SilverNight

WHAT'S NEXT? Head on over to the Pairing Plaza for Buddies and discuss the following:

• Tell us if you would still like to be considered for future RP Buddy rounds. If you are interested in being in more than one RP, then make sure to opt in! Otherwise, the default will be: "No, I only want to be considered for this one round."
• Who in your group will be the DM (leader/creator)? If you're interested, feel free to volunteer!
• Make an OOC thread to figure out plot. You are also welcome to use the Pairing Plaza for plot discussion, but it would be easiest for the DM to make an OOC thread and then continue discussion for plot there so all the posts are in one place.
• When you're ready, make the RP thread! This would be after the OOC thread is created, and you can figure out starting plot and whether you want to do a SB, Realm, or Hollow. If there are only two people in your group, then you will be making a Duo by default.
• If you have any questions, tag anyone in the RP Crew in the Pairing Plaza, and we'll be happy to answer! If you are not happy with your group, please also PM someone in the RP Crew, and we'll work together with you.

Happy roleplaying!
