IMPORTANT! I'm becoming an RPer
« on: February 21, 2006, 12:59:56 am »
PlaneShift is about role playing.  Everyone says so.  Everyone intimately involved in PS wants it to be a real RPG.  People who like RP point out that OOC behavior ingame is completely ruining their experience to the point that the game isn't fun anymore.  Since I never RP'd ingame before, I realize that I must be spoiling the ingame experience for a dozen or even more people!  I don't like to make peoples game experience ruined so as such I have decided to finally fall into the RP category myself.  Now, what to RP? I have decided that Induane is actually a ruby crystal.  This will open Induane up to many RP possibilities.

I will not use any tell messages ingame.
My character will not move at all while ingame.
I will not speak at all actually.
Induane could be a quest item.
People could stand around and look.
Someone could shine a light at me to see if  I sparkle.
If Induane could think it could worship the giant crystal in the top of the stalactite.

The options are endless!

Here is a good picture of Induane:



I wanted Induane to have his own picture like many do in the  Great Fan Art project.

If anyone has any tips on how to be a good RP'r please let me know because  I would hate to screw it up and ruin someones experience ingame by accidentally talking or something.  Or what if I MOVED? I may disconnect my keyboard to avoid this awful situation.

Hopefully I can really make this work so that the ingame experience is bettered by my presence.

To be a good RPer, you must act as your character. PlaneShift is a reality, Yliakum is real life to those living in it, thus you must treat Yliakum like you do Earth. If you are a crystal, then you must sit there, not saying anything, not doing anything. Maybe weather when it rains? Have the tip of your body crack off and fall onto the ground?

If you were actually a human character, you would speak like you normally would, saying \"Hello\" or \"Greetings\" depending on how aged and knowledgable your character is. A three year old would speak in tongues, if being able to speak at all, not being able to be understood and so on. Someone sixty years of age, would speak like he has seen everything this world has to offer, he would be very knowledgable, able to give advice, able to fit into a public with ease.

Choose which best suits your character. Knowledgable? Delinquent? Silent? Motormouth? You get the idea.

Induane, I just wanted to say that that is pretty much the best rendering of a ruby crystal I have ever seen.  I had to look closely to figure out it wasn\'t actually a photograph.  

Also, my character in-game is an emerald crystal.  Think we could form a guild?

Induane is making a joke, though it\'s another rant that is meant to poke fun at people he doesn\'t like. Yay for random venting, yadda yadda.

I was going to suggest that some other people RP other gems important to PlaneShift.  A diamond could be fun to be too.  you could get split up and made into jewelry, or various other awesome RP possibilities.

Thanks about the ruby crystal render comments, I labored for minutes and minutes on my laptop in the fantastic graphics design program known as mspaint.

I took the liberty of rendering another image for your character:

Can a book join your crystal guild, or are you  exclusive?

(actually plays a book in-game...really...no joke)

I thought crystals were tamed and grown only within the city walls now :/ You little rebels, how did you get your roots all the way outside.
