How to write good 101

Roleplaying-

The 3 C's of roleplaying!

1) Chemistry
-I was skeptical about this when I first started to roleplay when I started a thread a long time ago when I first joined. It's been a while and I asked for some role-playing tips or something like that. I believe and some of the mods came to the consensus that the biggest factor is chemistry. When i first heard this I was like whatever! But, as time went along I sort of agreed with them. On this site, there are great roleplayers who play fair, use great writing and have fantastic characters. However, this doesn't mean he or she will be compatible with me. This isn't anyone's fault it's just how it is sometimes. You may have noticed some of the roleplayers on this site consistently continue role-playing with each other and that's because they have great chemistry. Once you have that click with someone you'll find that you want to roleplay with them over and over again.

2) Control
-This is a huge issue not just within this site but role-playing as a whole. I'm pretty sure you've heard this a 100 times before so I'll just sum it up very quickly: Do Not Power play. As Tief mentioned earlier, do not pretend to control things that are beyond you character's control (unless your rp partner is cool with it, try to discuss it with them before hand). However, this sort of goes in line with chemistry also, as in you need to have a good sense of how much control you give your opponent's character. In my opinion, don't try to dodge, counter and/or escape everything without having your partner's consent. There are some role players who literally just lay there and let you totally waste their characters. I call them sandbags. " title="Very Happy" /> This sort of goes hand in hand with Chemistry

3) Characters
-Honestly, I feel like this hasn't been addressed enough on this site despite the fact it's the most essential part of role-playing. In a world like AFW, where everyone's smoking hot, a sexual deviant and full of lust. Honestly, if you want to be known as a great roleplayer make a great character because a role player's reputation is only as well known as his best character. Personality plays a big part in role playing and in this site because without a distinct personality there's nothing that sets them apart from the other characters. It makes people remember who your character was and they will see your character as an individual. In short, role playing is just that playing the role of your character.

Don't believe me?
