    Hey guys I'm new so forgive me if i make any mistakes, but i think i have a good idea for an RP and want to see if any one likes it or has any ideas for it before i begin Writing it. the basic plot is to have Potema be resurrected by Javen a skilled Argonian necromancer who has had an unwavering obsession and crush on her sense he was young. As she rises and begins reconstructing her undead army, and resurrect her fallen vampiric generals to lay siege to the hull of Skyrim to reclaim her rightful place on the throne slaughtering any who appose her. Skyrim's only chance of survival is for all Waring factions to unite, and amass every able body man possible to fight Potema's evil ambition for conquest, and control over all she sees. so if this idea peeks any ones interest or if you like the general idea but have some problems let me know ill more than happy to tweak it a bit.

    I like it. But, is this going to be a story you are writing, or is it going to be an RP thread. Personally I think it will work better as an RP thread.
    Just in case you don't know what an RP thread is:
    It is basically where you create a basic starting point for a story (for example the one you have come up with) and get people to write from their characters perspective. A good thing to do first would be to get everyone to post their character cards on a separate thread so you can see who they are and what the character is like. Then they just start writing from their characters perspective and hopefully they will link with other peoples characters.

    I think you have actually been on here longer than me so I don't know why I am acting like I know so much.

    Anyway, if you know what to do for an RP thread I would get started on one, if not, just observe some others.

    You're not acting like you know so much, Minstrel. You gave Dar'Aava solid advice. Anyone would appreciate that. :)

    Btw, if you do go ahead with trying to make an RP thread I'll definitely join. Send me a message if you make a character card thread and I think more people will join from there. :)

    Why give up now, you have two people here that are willing to start on one with you. You don't need many people anyway. I suppose it is better when you start a small RP anyway because you can get to know each character a bit better.

    If you post a Character card thread and me and Dunklunk post ours on it, i'm sure other people will two. I think that is how it works on here. If people see that other people have commented on it they will comment themselves.

    Anyway, I'm not saying you have to, just an idea.

    Hey, hey, now, Minstrel. I might actually suck big-time at this, so more people might be a good thing. But hey, I'll go along with whatever Dar'Aava decides. :)

    What's a character card? Is there a template for this? Is it easy to do? Based on our in-game character? See, told you I was lame. lol

    Lol or if its OK with you guys it can just bee the three of us. its my first time so i dont want to be overwhelmed. And if you guys are cool with that ill start open a private thread with the opening scene. But if you think we could use more ill try reposting this thread as an OOC (out of charecter) thread and you two can post your cards and see where it gose =).

    Basically, it can be you in-game character if you want. Sometimes it is easier if you roleplay with that character in skyrim anyay. But a character card is usually set out like this:

    Name:

    Race:

    Rough age:

    Personality:

    Brief back story:



    It's pretty simple and quick to do.

    Yeah, I think it will be a lot easier to have it with just us three. I have only ever done taken part in one of these myself and it wasn't particularly large. So lets do it with just us three :D
