Interesting title goes here

Hello all!

I'm new to this site (as I'm sure you could have guessed :P)!

I'm from Canada, in my early 40s and I have roughly 25 years of roleplaying experience - some in person, but mostly online where I started with Roleplay Enforced MUDs before moving on to MMORGPs. My first language is French, but I mostly read and wrire in English.

MMORPGs I've RPed on include Star Wars Galaxies, Everquest 2, City of Heroes/Villains, Eve Online, Lord of the Rings Online, Star Wars: The Old Republic and The Elder Scrolls Online (Somehow, I dodged the Big W XD). I have been a passionate member of the roleplay community in every single one of these (though I went by many different names).

I have some experience in Play by Post communities, in fact, I was on a different site as of last winter before I had to quit due to a combination of my work schedule and being tired of said site's players and GMs constantly dropping or ghosting games (to put things in perspective, for the whole time I was there, not a single one of the games I participated in made it to its intended conclusion).

I do not shy away from mature and adult content - I actually enjoy it - but I don't live for it. Character development and plot progression are what matters the most to me, but I will admit I am a hopeless romantic and I usually enjoy having a romance subplot in my RP ^^; I also play both male and female characters.

Fandoms/interests:
  • General Fantasy and Sci-Fi
  • Tolkien's fantasy world
  • Star Wars
  • Star Trek
  • Elder Scrolls/Skyrim (hence the name)
  • Urban Fantasy (think Supernatural or Grimm, not really into Twilight or Vampire fiction in general)


I also dabble in Western, Post-Apocalyptic (but not zombies) and Harry Potter (does it count as urban fantasy? Who knows).

I usually prefer Freestyle games but I'm very familiar with D&D 3.5 and Star Wars d20 (I DM'd both). I also dabbled in Star Wars : Fantasy Flight Games, Pathfinders 2E, Battletech: ATOW and World of Darkness. I'm of course willing to learn new systems if you don't mind having a newbie in your game.

Sorry for the long post <.<

TL/DR: I'm new and looking forward to RP with all of you :D

Welcome.

I won't lie - you'll find games here that never reach their intended conclusion.  Some do, but like real life campaigns, life causes game attrition.

I hope you enjoy it here all the same, and my your games reach a satisfactory ending point -- or keep going!

Heya and welcome to RPol, you'll find anything you want here and so many great games from freeform to about any system game you like.

A few tips for you are below:-

Make sure you turn on your rmail by going to the link at the top that is User preferences, there you will find some settings to play around with including the rmail one as that is how you and most GMs can talk.

On the main menu there are two forums you can find what you want to play in

Wanted: players
Wanted: GMs

At the bottom of the main menu you will also find search link to find games and other good stuff.

So all I can say now is

HAPPY GAMING!!
