Anyone here do freeform RP shit? I do, and I have to say it's one of the most masochistic hobbies you can get into (Aside from spending $3000+ on plastic crack) and I'll outline some of the reasons why.
>Finding good websites/forums based around freeform is ridiculously easy until you start looking for certain topics and good communities that also enjoy those topics >Making a character in the hopes that someone will find the base idea interesting and approach you >Or alternatively making a character and approaching someone only to get turned away because they're "out of your league" >All of the fucking OP characters you can think of >Seriously, everyone was playing some kind of god or deity or the avatar of one of those enormous pricks >In one place I actually saw some kind of meta-fetish going on where a player was playing the avatar of a god - which was another player. What the fuck. >These players all have no idea what a balance of power is so you end up having to make something OP as well so you don't get one-hit-KO'ed by the hordes of 'fitenaos' >Who are all coincidentally edgy faggot half-demons. >Then you have the people that literally only join the scene to erp, get their rocks off a few times and never post again. >They'll PM you (usually in-character) with something retarded like *gropes* or *kisses ur neck* and you'll have to deal with them being massive fuckboys after you say you don't ERP >Usually something in the vein of "Lol, stuck up bitch" >Or they're a mixture of fuckboy and edgelord and PM you to ask if you want to fight >And they'll launch into hypotheticals that would never happen. Oooof course they will. >"My character would use his darkness magic on him after tricking him" >When meanwhile your character is nowhere near as retarded as what this sorry excuse for a well-written character is trying to imply
And of course; >godmodding, metagaming, powergaming >badmins >FUCKING PONIES
An RP with no rules or numbers is just a sad and pathetic chatroom.
Nathan Martinez
One summer, me, some friends and a few Veeky Forums soldiers deconstructed a free form roleplay. We had the exact opposite happen; our characters were fairly low power manly men (town guardsmen, boxing alchemist, half-demon without a tragic edgy back story, old wizard with a body that was falling apart from using magic too frequently, tactical operator, Victorian porcelain doll given life) and everyone else was either a vampire, a werewolf, a demon or a literal god.
Most roleplay consisted of us drinking in the bar, or apparently "insulting" characters, and when challenging them to fight being told we "weren't worth their time" and them promptly teleporting away.
It was pretty fun for the two months or so it lasted before we destabilized the region enough to force the " Demon King" to be destroyed in game and then ban't and then we left because that was our goal from the beginning.
Hudson Kelly
How did you destabilize the region by playing low power manly men?
Christopher Thompson
1/2 I had some pretty cringy moments in a RP chatroom, but it was what ultimately got me to start focusing more on creativity. With that being said:
One of my highschool friends I'm still in touch with introduces me to this online, long defunct Meebo Gorillaz-themed chatroom. For no explanation at all, this room was mainly used for RP chat.
My friend had a character named Soul, who was pretty much if Squall had Psionics and decided to wear Zidane's tail as a trophy. He also had the same tragic Zidane backstory turned up with the edge factor (bleeding eyes and "rage mode" included and an online pseudo-girlfriend character.
Of course the character I ended up making was not much better. He was the definition of the True Neutral Balance, warhammer 40k armor wearing doofus that was also a super fedora anti-theist. His powers came from a fragment of a fallen god, and were mostly earth based. He also happened to have the power to infuse whatever earth or stupid metal contraption he could generate from thin air with Bane Runes that essentially served as sapping batteries for supernatural energies. Also, he had the most moronic name: Eveto'at, constantly pronounced Eve Twat by one of my asshole friends, and changed to Entemo'at later on.
Isaac Richardson
2/2
Those two characters met each other by, of course, a long and drawn out anime garbage fight that ended once we both got tired and decided to have them form a bond out of respect for each other's power. They soon set out I suppose to put "OP" characters in their place. One of the first instances of them ever fighting someone I remember was against a character SO typical that I don't remember a damn thing about it other than it was probably a shitty furfag OC. But I cannot say the same for how we made them ragequit.
In short, after Soul went into short Circuit as he called it and of course did nothing, my character had the idea of INFUSING AN ENTIRE PLANET WITH BANE RUNES. Basically, the traction of the sapping became so great that it essentially drained the main threat's powers entirely (by that I mean they said NUH UH but we ignored just them). This caused the planet to overload and explode. After being left floating in space and the enemy slain, Eve Twat and Soul pretty gave each other a high five right after the furtrash OC ditched the chatroom in a fit (we weren't kicked for this btw, that's how very shitty the moderation was).
Of course the two continued to have some adventures after that, buuuut there's a lot of scattered pieces that aren't really worth remembering.
Julian Jones
OP here. This one isn't my story exactly, but it's one that I've heard from a friend many, many times.
>Join a medieval-fantasy room >For some reason there's a rule against OP characters but the two largest 'personalities' (if you could even call them that with how two-dimensional they were) were basically walking magical nukes (their words, not his). >They were proud of this, and buddies with the mod of the room so people couldn't really complain or they'd get B&. >Both of them were 900+ year old kitsunes with affinities for 'void' or 'atomic' fire magic >Both were basically the same in the sense that they LOLBYPASSED every single fire resistance ever no take backsies guise for real >One used to be a prince of [insert desert furry trash kingdom here] and had boned SO MANY QUEENZ NO RLY >The other was a ripoff of Tokyo Ghoul, had mouths in her tails >Eventually the moderator of the room starts up a 'war!' event and people are drafted. >A few normal characters plus the two nukes >Furfag #1 just casts nuclear fireballs at the armies while Furfag #2 shreds the enemy's ENTIRE NAVY in ~2 posts >Literally everyone else bitches to the mod in PMs (or so I heard from my buddy) >The mod finally caves and plot-holes in two fucking MASSIVE eldritch abominations that insta-aggro towards the furfags >BOTH of them immediately get salty as the dead sea and fuck off after claiming the mod was trying to get their shitty snowflakes killed

Adrian Sullivan
I have been free-form RPing since freshman year of high school. I began on the WoW forums, and my probably 7+ year odyssey has taken me to, of all places, F-list.
Think what you will of me. Pic related is a defunct avatar image for one of my characters, a sci-fi gunslinger inspired by Firefly and Aliens. It's 100x100 because that's the max size.
I avoid group and chat RP entirely, and play with single partners with as private of methods as I can manage. If you're willing to dig through literal mountains of shit you can come across some really great people and some really skilled writers. Over the years I've come to think of it a little less as roleplaying and a little more as cooperative writing.
Ask me anything. I doubt I can offer much in the way of good stories but I suppose I can offer the rest of Veeky Forums a peak into the mind of a freeform RPer.
Lincoln Torres
Both, user. Can't access threads without a login, can't login because it'll direct you to a ban page.

Owen Brooks
Doesn't really sound like the DM agrees either, IMO. I'd either talk with him and stress the importance of downtime and plot, or explain to the other PC's that they shouldn't be murderhoboing everything and stress the importance of RP, since D&D/Pathfinder are both Roleplaying games.
Both of them being strong silent and broody is kind of shit.
Is not.

Jackson Parker
I've a couple of stories of 'that guy', but I think this one is my personal favorite.
>general zombie apoc RP >working for some trader who snorts coke and deals guns most of the time >aword has it that nearby there's some religious preacher >rumor spreads he's a cannibal >check it out when he's not around, obviously he is >Surprisingly the trader had some morals. >we both get suited up to deal with the guy, masks and whatnot just in case people are mad we kill him >get there, apparently some 14 year old girl is fighting him with a screwdriver >I get ordered to molotov the place >I hesitate, but end up torching the place >torch it, both of the girl and priest freak out >turn and walk away, some guy from the shadows tries protesting our actions >trader's like "thing's thrown already lol" >starts yelling at us even though we're visibly geared, starting to get aggressive. >whatever.jpg >shoot him like once in the stomach to shut him up >he does the ol' "looks at wound and slumps down" >carry on >about to leave when aforementioned girl comes along dragging the guy we shot (even though he's like, how heavy), begging us for medical assistance. >she's unscathed somehow >Point my Bizon at her, tell her to drop the guy and just leave. >refuses, ask her 3 more times, still refuses. >Have this little girl begging in front of me and the trader screaming in my ear to shoot her >idontgetpaidenoughforthisshit.jpg >spray her down with like 8 bullets >have some internal conflict while the trader applauds my actions >return to base
I personally didn't care at that point, because what was done was done, but someone came by an informed us that there was a 'young wounded girl who needed help badly'. It was the same girl, still somehow alive. Had to stabilize her because my character obviously wouldn't leave her there like that, but I was furious OOC.
The girl then recovered and freakishly admired my character's ways. Fucking hell.
Ryan Taylor
I'm pretty sure Dechaerrim doesn't even have any new ones in that image. The current main gigolo is Ben - at the rate he's going, he should surpass Dechaerrim by June.
Aaron Barnes
The only reason I won't push you further is because I could not keep up with the chuuni.
Juan Nelson
the ironic part of it is that the hermit is chaotic good and the sage is neutrual good while I'm chaotic neutral.
why do people call chaotic netrual murderhobos? I said ages ago it's always the people with boring taste that usually go murder hobo. they play to get their dick sucked, the sage is a super over powered homebrew race on top of that and litrually stays silent paying pretty much no attention until we get into a battle and whats the worst part about it all is that she never remembers her fucking character sheet and I have to remind her of what her own character is capable of.

That's fucking stupid, did you at least still get to pass on your ideas to another community?
Connor Gomez
No, I AM the aforementioned friend, and that was bulshit
Evan James
Somewhat, the EotE character I have now is a smaller, less in-depth version of the two characters I lost - The characters I lost were a BH who took the identity of their dead father to work, and a Stormtrooper who gets victimised for being a once-republic child citizen.
Now their just a BH Survivalist with some "deaddy issues."
I am still looking for a RP community to accept me but I've got a couple more months of slave work to do before I'm free.
Jason Watson
We formed a coherent storyline that the GM really liked. She sort of realized how bullshit everyone else was and the Demon King tried to invade the Vatican Equivalent which was holy ground trying to draw us into a fight. We ignored him, and he ended up disintegrating due to the overwhelming radiant power of the place, and had his essence scattered across all planes of existence. Then the game reset and he was banned for starting a fuss.

Does anyone have the Corgatha Taldorthar story? I saved a screencap ages ago, but I accidentally deleted it. While it wasn't quite freeform, it was a nice story, and scared me off forum RPing something good, even one with rules and mods and shit.

Liars. Both of you. I do not recall any of that bullshit and I am the aforementioned friend. I don't understand why you insist on making shit up on the internet. It's almost as if you were playing a role of some kind, in a form that seems somewhat free.

Brayden White
I grew up doing that shit on Neopets n stuff. After a few years I realized I was a much better writer than most RPers. I was often dictating the pacing and directing the action. Most of what I got was people reaffirming things I had said and then adding one line of dialogue, so it felt more or less like I was RPing with myself and someone was just occasionally reacting to it. So I cut out the middle man and just started writing my own fiction.
Eventually it looped back around and I had all these settings and characters and situations I'd developed, but it felt a little empty without other people to react to them.
And that's the story of how I became a DM.
I make f-list profiles for characters I'd actually like to play now and then, because it's easier than setting up a whole campaign and finding nerds for it, but it's still the same shit. Bad people that don't really wanna be a part of a world and do stuff, they just wanna react to shit and/or masturbate.
Xavier Thomas
Am good, these two work just fine for half the stuff I'd ever post here. Mostly because if this medieval shit keeps up there'll be more to show and it'll be horrifying as well.
Brandon Ortiz
I absolutely love joining up into worlds, even as difficult as it is to find on F-list which I use. Like the only good rooms I ever were in were restrictive ones. This one that was medieval, was fucking lit as hell. Then I was in two scifi ones...Both of which the owner abandoned after a while.
My character never got his legs back in either instance. It was sad. It was kind of nice, though. Everybody else was proficient in firearms and my guy was just 'I ride a giant metal lizard around, hack shit and smooth talk my way out of things'. The owner liked that. Kinda sad that he disappeared...
Luis Hughes
I AM SPARTACUS
Justin Martinez
The trick with freeform RP is that it works best in a setting in which combat is not a major theme. It should be obvious, but a medieval knight charging into battle needs some sort of mechanism to handle battle. Freeform needs to be something character-driven, where "success" is not defined as "killing the bad guy." I actually prefer it to TTRPGs because I fucking love character-driven shit, but like all things that are "easier" (i.e., you don't have to learn a system), it's a cesspool of cringeworthy 12-year-olds. I would love to someday get enough competent, literate players together to run a proper freeform, but eh, I'm not holding my breath.

That's why I like World of Darkness. I'm fucking abysmal at math and keeping track of a lot of variables. Since WoD 'Storyteller' system is easy enough a retard can understand it, and the underlying theme of the various games being more about diplomacy and preserving normalcy rather than berzerking in the streets or murder hoboing it up.
Dominic Young
I like to think of myself as an okay writer in the sense that I can post a lot, don't godmod/meta/powergame and keep my characters' power levels below 9000.
Ryder Walker
Dave looks at his computer screen, and chuckles. One of the users on Veeky Forums has just suggested that they do a freeform RP of a freeform RP, and despite not really being THAT funny, it still gets to him. Clearing his throat, he begins typing an ironic RP post about him RPing. Maybe he'll get a few (you)s? Nah, he probably won't. The only way to get (you)s on this site anymore is to shitpost and directly disagree with an autist.
Juan Fisher
Deep in Ryan's carbin fiver bones, he yearns to belong so he cracks his knuckles and begins. Begins to type the story. It is the story of how he became something more than human. And yet, something Ultimately human. The pustules on his face throbbed as his burgeoning excitement caused his heart to beat faster and faster. He was ascending. Through his freeform RP of his freeform RP, Ryan was becoming a god.
Nicholas Jenkins
And then, some faggot came in and shitposted a picture of a chicken and screamed to the gods "BEHOLD A MAN"

Chris looks at the other two while they spoke and sighed shaking his head. Being 2616 years old he had heard much of this talk before and would hear it again. It was true what they say, mortals never change...

With a flick of his wrist, Ryan banishes some faggot from existence, his shitposting days were over. Echoes of his soul, his death scream, would be felt across the board for years.
It appears that Ryan's attempts to appear as but a simple poster had succeeded. For Ryan had fooled Chris, the only being to have lived longer than he had. But Chris had grow cocky and complacent in his old age. It was time for a new Veeky Forums order.

"Fififi, you see, I had been planning your demise for years. I sought out the Mane Mane no Mi (translator's note: gum gum clone clone devil fruit powerful). I knew I must bring you to heel both mentally and physically. Those six times Ayane had sex with you, it was me. Your ultimate humiliation. For you see, you were in fact having sex with me and not Ayane. Oh and one more thing."

"Your 'children'."
When you look in the door, instead of your children's corpses you see 6 logs, their insides drilled out, sawdust everywhere, wearing your children's clothes.

Joshua Johnson
On computer now so now I'm just drunkposting instead of drunkphoneposting So basically I was running a social heavy 5e game but apparently I didn't explain it well enough and then one of the guys I recruited sort of got isolated because he felt there was nothing he could do, so he quit. Basically he said the he felt the other guys were doing too much and he didn't get to do anything and I was treating it like an in-person RP instead of a text game, and that I textdumped too much I do textdump too much, and I've been trying to change that, but I still feel bad. I tried to come up with an explanation, but then he pretty much explained why my explanation didn't work, and he was right. So I accidentally left this guy holding the bag because I didn't think things through.

This sounds a little bit like what happened to me recently.
