SmilingPanda19 Any! Posted December 2, 2023 Posted December 2, 2023 (edited) So basically we discussed starting a little crazy and chaotic romance rp since a lot of us are hopeless romantics, here is where we continue that discussion. Tag anyone and everyone who would be interested. Edited December 5, 2023 by Ookla the Yellow Sock 5

I might be interested. I've never written romance before.
Ookla de los Cuervos he/him Posted December 2, 2023 Posted December 2, 2023 so basically instead of being side plot, it is the plot?

InfiniteInsanity she/her Posted December 3, 2023 Posted December 3, 2023 I'd be willing to give this a try.
The Aspiring Archivist any pronouns Posted December 3, 2023 Posted December 3, 2023 I suppose I'll join, though I'll see as to whether my character actually does much romance.
Ravenclawjedi42 Posted December 3, 2023 Posted December 3, 2023 I’m pretty much the opposite of a hopeless romantic in real life, butI’d still like to do this.
Weaver of Shadows he/him Posted December 3, 2023 Posted December 3, 2023 Do we have a character sheet template yet or are you still working out the details?
SmilingPanda19 Any! Posted December 3, 2023 Author Posted December 3, 2023 (edited) The poll is out folks. I am going to eliminate all outside of earth and human possibilities for the sake of simplicity. * next to the top question means the end of the world or the characters inevitable deaths are not determined yet for that era. Please answer the poll and debate here. @Ookla the Raveness @Ookla the Quesadilla @Ookla the Abstract @Ookla the Believer @Ookla the Resolute @Ookla the Erased @Ookla the foolish @Ookla thePresentParticiple @Ookla of Ravens @InfiniteInsanity @Canada Lover Other people who might be interested in this: (I know I’m double posting, fight me) @Ookla the Lotus @SymphonianBookworm @Ookla the Pastry @Ookla The Storyteller @Ookla-The-Stick @Ookla the Shadowed @Part Of The Narrative Edited December 3, 2023 by Ookla the Yellow Sock 1
Thaidakar the Ghostblood he/him Posted December 3, 2023 Posted December 3, 2023 I love this. Regency era is the best! Nobles, balls, Jane Austin-esque stuff, me RPing as Mr Darcy knock offs, Doctor Who style conversations... OOOH, I wish I could change my vote on the technology to high level... just imagine a ball where someone like Doctor Who shows up with tech.
The Honorable Musician he/him Posted December 3, 2023 Posted December 3, 2023 This would be... interesting. I'm not great at writing romance, but I'll give it a try.
The Aspiring Archivist any pronouns Posted December 3, 2023 Posted December 3, 2023 Modern/post-modern feels like the best choice for the, if only because it doesn't require any prior knowledge of the era. Also magic is fun. And I'm not sure about the death thing, but I guess it depends on how long we want this to last. I said some could because that seems like it could make it a little less dreary.
The Wandering Wizard he/him Posted December 3, 2023 Posted December 3, 2023 It might be fun if some characters knew of their impending doom but still fell for someone 1
SmilingPanda19 Any! Posted December 3, 2023 Author Posted December 3, 2023 I personally like WW1 for several reasons: 1. It has the simplicity of guns and gas so that we don’t have nukes. 2. It allows action to happen. 3. People can drop out on the front lines or join in a new recruit any time. 4. It’s a commonly know event in history and it’s easy to research if needed. 5. You can be drafted or enlisted. 6. It gives a reason for people to fall in love, impending doom makes people think faster about marking off their bucket lists. 7. We can have a wide variety of people from different countries and such, forbidden romance??? 8. Historical romance isn’t often found in rps. 9. It doesn’t need a magic system to be exciting. 10. Trauma! Those were just off the top of my head.

Well yes but like say one is going to die before the others and they know it is coming. Like say a terminal disease or something.

I agree with this

I don't think it's about the death. It's about coming to terms with death and falling in love despite of it, making good with the time you have. Mmmmm... this does make good room for foil characters...
