Welcome to Gaia! ::

Does anybody here like to do roleplaying? We have a message board-style RPG for Digital Devil Saga, which is an alternate universe version of the game. A lot of the characters from the actual game are in it, but they aren't exactly the same (some have different personalities, others are members of different tribes, etc.). We also have lots of original characters that are really cool.

But it's a lot of fun, and we could use some more people to play with, especially in the Solid and Merrybell tribes (but you can join whatever tribe you'd like!). All the leadership spots have been taken, but just because you can't be a leader doesn't mean you still can't have fun. And remember, it's an AU RPG, so things don't have to follow exactly to par with the video game! The players are tight as well, so we often talk on messenger about storylines, so our characters can work together and the like. We also catch everyone else up on things they might have missed; we're into the story, but not so far that you can't still come in.

This is the URL if you're interested; talk to Nithe if you have questions, otherwise go ahead, read the rules and info, and apply!: http://ddsrpg.avidgamers.com

RPs sound like fun but I was never good at them. sweatdrop

Basically it's making your own persona to be the character that you represent, and writing a piece of the story from your character's point of view every so often (how he's feeling, what he's doing, where he's going, etc.). It's hard to explain, but if you read a little bit from the RPG boards, you can get the gist of it. The only thing you have to be careful of is god-modding (controlling another character that doesn't belong to you); you can only write what your character is doing.
