In my time here, I've come across a lot of people who seem to struggle with roleplaying in one way or another. Maybe they find it difficult to retain attention or to maintain a roleplay for as long as they had planned, or maybe they just struggle with playing a specific type of situation they've found themselves in among a whole series of other problems. I thought it would be nice to start a thread where people could share and discuss advice on how to be a better player and make the experience a lot more fun for everyone involved! Keep in mind, the following are just guidelines and don't necessarily have to be followed, and if you disagree with anything I suggest, feel fr…

Hello EcchiDreams, On this page is a proposal for an RP that I would like to do one day and perhaps will but for now is still in the ideas stage. However, since I haven't shared it or developed it much, perhaps people here could help me with it. Up for discussion today is my idea/version of a superhero RPG, the kind of stuff one would find in cartoons watched on a lazy Saturday morning. Well, back in the 90s. Anyway, this RPG is inspired directly by a number of things which I shall list here: 1) Persona 3+4 2) Super Sentai/Power Rangers 3) Anime 4) Fire Emblem What I had wanted to do but probably will never get around to do is have a world where there are seemingly no…

ED seems to believe in creative freedom for your writing, and that includes getting to write your sex scenes no matter how kinky and weird they are... so long as they don't violate the ToS or law, which is fair! Unfortunately, any site that allows freedom of sexual content attracts the t r u e c r e e p as well. We all eventually figure out how to spot those people of course, but many roleplayers (especially new ones) can still ACCIDENTALLY come off as a creep in their interest checks, partner requests, E-texts, and even in casual out of character conversations. They just don't realize their language or behavior is inappropriate. If you're one of those roleplayers th…

I know this is really sudden and I apologize to everyone who's been eagerly awaiting my response to our roleplays. However, a lot of crazy things have been happening to me these past 8 months that are changing me for the better. If you aren't aware, 8 months ago, a close friend of mine lost her fiance in a car wreck. This was a massive tragedy that broke everyone's heart, because the man who passed on had touched so many lives in such a wonderful way. Even in his passing, he's caused an incredible ripple that's pulled families and friends together with inseparable bonds. In the time since, I've gone through a lot of personal drama as well as personal and spiritual gr…

Dungeons and Dragons + Fetishistic Roleplaying = ? 1 2

So, here's a question that's likely been answered. But I'm curious. Has anyone ever thought to combine roleplays (private or otherwise) with the dice-rolling fun of Dungeons and Dragons? I have, and I have no idea how to go about it. The idea just kinda popped into my head. I'm picturing someone DMing a session of Dungeons and Dragons, but not at a table. I'm picturing a roleplay where the players are presented with challenges and scenarios by the DM, a roleplay where some things are settled with typing/writing, and others are settled with dice rolls. Example: The DM says: The snow white scales of the dragon gleam wickedly in the light filtering …

Hey guys, I'm new to the site but not new to roleplay to say the least, but there have always been a couple of stories I'd love to play and this site seems to be a great place to start. My first idea is based on a wonderful comic I read years ago, with the premise being that of a very high-end brothel. Imagine, if you will, a large and decadent mansion in Paris, Rome or London where those with some serious bank can come and see a variety of courtesans. Frequent visitors would have their favourite employees and maybe become sponsors, paying for exclusive access for periods of time or special services. All a very classy affair within a gorgeous setting, romantic,…

Welcome to this no-doubt-too-long post! So, what the hell are you reading? Good question. As the title suggests, it's not really a guide. But I hope there is some wisdom or, at least, some points around which interesting discussion can foment. I would also like to point out that nearly everything herein is like, just my opinion, man. It's based on zero data, zero expert analysis, and precisely aroung a month of experience, so far. "Okay then," I hear you start, "Why the hell are you writing this? For likes? For glory? To please some strange, obscure pact you once made with a sea-dwelling nymph?" That last one was a bit specific, don't you think? Maybe you…

So, as you might have read on the title I was thinking about creating a club focused on fighting creatures, it can be monsters, bandits, demons, angels, yadda yadda yadda. While I don't have a solid idea about the world yet, I was thinking on the RP happening in Diablo-like world, with humanity striving to survive after being caught in a war between demons and angels, it wouldn't necessarily be apocalyptic, but it wouldn't be a paradise either. As for the plot, we would all create our own characters (obviously) and become members of a mercenary guild, doing all sorts of missions, both together or alone. What do you guys think? Is the idea interesting? Please feel free to …

The start of this RP/Club, haven't decide yet, with Vergil accidently discover this place during "journey" and unable to leave this weird dimension due to restrictions done by someone calling himself, God. By encountering him, God has bestow the gift of taking charge of the school and becoming the first ever principle of (Haven't name it yet) school. While also cursing him to stay in this limbo forever unless, he finish with God's restrictions. First and most important of all, this school isn't your average school where people can lived happily ever after. On the contrary, this place is purgatory, a realm where the soul need to be tested and whether they can be reviv…

Many of us often crave a specific roleplay scenario at times, or maybe even keep ideas stored to offer to their partners. But where do we find inspiration for these? Over the years I've found that it can come from just about anywhere... Sometimes I may venture out onto the Internet with the express purpose of gathering roleplay ideas for plots or characters. And I have a primary method for this, which is browsing hentai image boards. I got my start roleplaying in a community where everyone advertised their roleplays with a sexy picture to grab attention, and so this is how I first learned to find ideas. Instead of having an idea and then finding an image to represent…

Just thought about it while writing a review, while this is aimed at playing submissive characters I have the impression that it benefits my overall play too. They realy are applicable to all kinds or roleplay. Be advised: Some examples are definitely not safe for work: Me and plenty of other players love playing submissive characters that get dominated, this often comes with its own set of challenges. How do you contribute to a game if you are bound to a table, unable to move and have.... things in your mouth. The most basic idea of roleplaying is to describe your actions. In those situations that won't get you anywhere because you are kept from physical…

Kinds of people I, a new RPer, dislike.

Ok to preface this, I’m a new RPer. I’ve only begun in the last 2 weeks or so and have done a couple RP’s now and I just wanted to list the kinds of people I dislike and stuff I noticed. This post is gonna be similar to the “Advice on how to not sound creepy” thread that got huge on here, as this was originally going to just be a response to that thread which became so long that I thought it’d be better to make it it’s own post! Also if you’re reading this and you’re RPing or have RPed with me don’t worry this isn’t a post attacking you, and hell if I decide to continue RPing with you that probably means you aren’t one of these people lmao First kind…

// Just wanted to put this out there. Slade is not my only muse. I've played probably close to 35 characters in my roleplay career. But I obviously don't have the muse for all of them. That would be insane! This is another muse of mine that I mainly use for any kind of horror or magic based rp. Or Anime as I don't watch the stuff myself and this character can generally take on those folks and their crazy ass powers! I present Rick from Splatterhouse.

Since a few days ago, I've told myself that it's time to 100% stop roleplaying and even writing altogether. It's a long story, but... I just feel like the time has come to leave this old hobby of mine because it doesn't really bring me any pleasure. Only frustration. But my mind, my imagination can't just stop working like that, with a snap of a finger. It keeps on going and going. So a stupid idea came to me. A compromise. Try DMing a story/world for someone. Without actually roleplaying a character myself in it. And I guess in a shape of a club here. There are however several things to consider: Will my idea be interesting to people? I know it's imposs…

Hey anyone who happens to come across this post I would love any input or ideas. I have been wanting to start a club that is sort of just a mundane high school homeroom, and members create charachters who make friends with one another! I'm not sure on a few things though. 1: reading through the terms of service, it talks about rules against depictions of minors in anything but a text format. I would prefer that Charachter sheets have images of the Charachter, so I guess my question is would a clothed, non sexual depiction of a Charachter who is listed as a high schooler be grounds for a violation Of rules? 2: would anyone even want to join? I've lurke…

This will be a very large RP which will consist of 6 Arcs with each one taking a while to complete and only having one to focus as of right now due to the extreme length of one take. This long RP will be a focus on a small group of four people and no more since it will take an even longer time to finish even one "dungeon." I do have three people in mind with this RP so I will pick those say partner and decide on the fate of this RP~ Let's begin with the Arc I. (Also! I will be updating this topic with Arc(s) and idea(s)~ =P ) Arc I The mortal world of this RP is called Avnas which was created by five powerful deities and knows as the Creator of Avnas among the s…

Rejection anxiety has always been a problem for me IRL, and I’m sure many people here can relate. But… even though i’m completely anonymous on here, and I don’t really have any reason to be anxious - I still very much am. Could it be that I’m just insecure of my own writing? Sorry if this post comes off as whiny.

Okay, so I have something to tell in regards of how I do my RP and I want to question that, have you guys ever been in my position before. Let's say, I was RPing with someone, and it seems, both of us like the idea that I pitch for our RP. I was working on the intro of our character, BUT, it turns out to be, the intro itself being longer than what I expect to be and equal to how much I should write in my erotica stories(which is actually an extra long one, in ecchidreams, it would be long to ultra long per RP paragraph), just to make the intro of two characters in the RP itself... I tried to shorten it, afraid of my partner being discouraged due to how long my intros…

I've been in the community for a little while now, I've spend some time doing private roleplay with a few individuals, but I'm curious about public roleplays. I've read through a few and I've looked around in the different tabs but I'm still not entirely sure the best way to get involved in them. I'm just looking for some advice from those who are more experienced with it than me. Which I've got none btdubs

When I first came to ED I was surprised how free one's ways of expressing their preferences were. See, my old site didn't allow loli roleplays of any kind. Luckily thanks to Tema, I learned how to write out my ideas with partners without getting banned so far, and I wanna try gathering all my fellow loli and shota lovers in one place to achieve mainly 2 things. 1: Make sure new users aren't banned for skipping the critical parts of the ToS regarding underage characters. 2: Lewd My priorities might not be in that order I admit, but regardless, I wanna make a loli club once I can afford gold status (at 5000 EC at the moment by the way). But I don't want this club t…

General Writing: How to Villain?

Hey there! Sierra here, I've been going through a long process of rewriting a campaign for Dungeons and Dragons and I've been stuck on making a real villain. One that makes the party's skin crawl, one that they can hate, one they can sympathize with, and cheer when the game comes to a close and victory is theirs. Do you have any advice? I'm looking for anything from personal philosophies, things you read/watched/or experienced, and your own ideas. I'm really curious how you guys create a compelling villain. Thank you for your time! I love you, ❤️ Sierra Zion

I'm pretty decent at role-playing, but I notice I can get repetitive, or say a word that doesn't make sense. Sounds dumb, I know I can look up words but I felt it would be better coming from other roleplayers with perhaps more experience! And also how to keep a roleplay going, on the sense of keeping my responses long, not short..

Hello, I’m new to this place. I found it while looking for someplace to spend some of my free time. I’m looking for some advice on how to overcome my anxiety about posting a thing in the private Roleplay area. I’m worried I’m going to be made fun of for my choice in style and what I want to do. (Stupid to worry about that I know.) Does anyone have any advice for either getting rid of this anxiety or how to overcome it?

As some of you may be aware of, I run a few open world RP clubs, some of which have gotten fairly silent, despite how much I have tried to keep them attractive, alive and develop on them. After hearing a few people out and contemplating such comments, they may be way too large and expansive for their own good and thus alienate most users from joining and engaging in them, despite how they fill out otherwise empty voids in terms of settings on ED. I am also aware that club RPs can in themselves deter those that prefer private roleplays, but I am not aiming for high popularity or anything like that. I would at least like to be able to roleplay within the worlds th…
