Story RPs are once-a-month RP opportunities based around a theme or plot that all members of the group can participate in. Story RPs come in two types: Overarching plots and Single play, multi-member RPs.
-Overarching plots last the duration of the month, and come as a theme around which players can base any art, stories, and any character or location RPs they participate in. These can include dealing with a slowly encroaching threat, a spreading sickness, or a shortage of food. Previous planning is generally limited for these plot lines, and may not go beyond a general summary of the plot and suggestions of how the plot may be resolved. These plots may sometimes lead into a single play RP in the next month.
-Single play, multi-member RPs refer to an RP that occurs on a set day, generally at a set time, and can include as many group members as are interested. These RPs will revolve around plots that can be initiated and resolved over the course of a single RP session. Plots for these RPs may be the resolution of a member's breaking of pride laws (the trial and punishment being carried out), the death of a pride member in a leadership position, and their rank being taken by another player, a journey with a set destination or purpose, or other similar, contained plot line. These plots will have a rough outline covering the main events that will need to happen at some point during the RP.
Story RP plot lines will be posted in the "Events" topic, and shared on the forum calendar.
Please read through the rules below before posting, and if you have any questions don't hesitate to post in the "Questions" thread of the welcome topic, or to message your moderator.
1. 1. No godmodding. See the main rules thread for a more in-depth discussion of this rule.
2. Keep the rules and rituals of your pride in mind while RPing. A character is allowed to act against these expectations, but the consequences of these actions should be seen through IC RPing.
3. Art and stories may be created to interact with overarching plot lines. See the "Art and Stories" thread for the rules concerning these kinds of posts.
3. All participation in these RPs, including art and stories, may be submitted for paw points.
