Roleplay Month 2022

Roleplay Month, or RPMo, is a chance for roleplayers with any and all levels of experience to participate in this exciting form of storytelling. There will be challenges, prizes, and plenty of fun to go around!


The Roleplay Crew are re-opening Roleplay Buddies, a combination mentor and mentee buddy system for those new to, inexperienced with, or intimidated by roleplaying on YWS. Post in the forum and we'll pair you with someone who will guide your way into the wonderful world of roleplay.

And for veteran roleplayers who are itching to jump into a new story or world, join up as a mentor!


The Checklist Challenge holds challenges for roleplayers, allowing them to pursue badges for their level! There is everything from easy opportunities to get used to roleplaying, to more difficult tasks for experienced RPers looking to expand their ability.


Ready for a fun, light-hearted daily challenge from Yours Truly? Well, I have the thing to do. Jump in at any time, complete bounties and get gold rewards, all by doing the things you already do: roleplaying!


Later this month, join the Roleplay Crew in a fun, wacky adventure that only grows larger the more people hop in. That's right, the tagbook is back! Who knows what happened after we found Nate the Dragon?


Later in the month, there will be familiar hashtags returning! Join us in the People tab for hashtags such as #ocforaday (pretend to be one of your characters for one day) and #characterinterviews (let others ask your character questions).


As with previous Roleplay Months, we have rewards a-plenty to award! While the daily bounties are offering piles of gold, if you participate in the various activities RPMo has to offer, you'll earn badges along the way. Stay tuned for the shiny badges!

The Checklist Challenge is live! Starting July 1st, you can make progress towards those badges and record your progress in that thread!

Later from July 15th to July 18th, we will see the return of the #ocforaday and #characterinterviews hashtags!

Read the spoiler if you need a refresher on how to participate in those:

Spoiler

1. #characterinterviews -- Write a wall post roleplaying as a character of yours (could be from an RP, a novel, a short story, etc.). Then other YWSers reply to the wall posts with questions for your character and then you roleplay answering them.

2. #ocforaday -- Spend a day saying everything on your wall or on other people's wall as your character. You can even change your avatar to a Picrew or equivalent picture of your character. First, write a wall post with this hash tag to let people know you're participating.

You ready for this? Pairings and groupings will happen all through July, but the sooner you sign up, the sooner you can start roleplaying! Roleplay Month is for everyone, so if you've never roleplayed before but want to learn how, this is the perfect opportunity. Let the fun begin!

Looking for gold? @DungeonMaster has plenty of it, if you're willing to complete some of their bounties. One bounty every day for all of Roleplay Month! Check out the thread below for more info!

Our tagbook is now ready to embark on a journey of many bad puns (mostly fish related somehow), memes and fourth wall breaks and general chaos.

Hello adventurers! I hope your adventures are going smoothly and you are getting plenty of riches and interesting stories.

Roleplay Month is coming to a close, so we are ending it with a bang! And what better way to end it than a pad party? So, on July 31st we will be hosting a pad party to end the month, and give everyone an opportunity to band together and finish strong, whether it be for Roleplay Month, Camp Nano, or just finishing your accountability threads in #22in22!

Times will be revealed closer to the 31st, so make sure to keep an eye out!

Hello adventurers! Join us for a celebration to end the month of roleplay and writing! Write, roleplay, plan, plot, or just hang out with us.
