RPing
Ok Hi im Lost_Cloud a big fan of Fantasy Life and RPing and i hope you enjoy this tutorial i put for anyone who wishes to know all the basics and also more ways to get the most funy out of RPing while not annoying people who already know how.
Lesson 1 Basics
First off you need to know what RPing is and what it means
RPing is treating the game more like a story so heres to examples
NoN RP
Lost_Cloud: OMG L33T Im a 67 wizard with super blizzard =D
RPing
Lost_Cloud: I am Daniel!(Rp Name) Archer of Azeroth! i shall protect you all and keep peace
Its more or less telling a story which you can make up as you go along and it also makes the game realistic in some cases with fantasy life.
You could be fighting dracula and instead of goin straight to shaft and going
"OMG PWNT HERES THE VAMPIRE KILLER LETS OWN DRACULA"
You would go
"We must find shaft! but how we shall find him.. thats another story... for now we must train..."
If you don't understand then just continue the tutorial your bound to get it by the end
Lesson 2:Commands and Metagaming
First off thiers basic commands so incase you need to speak out of character.. say for example your in jail and you want to say
"HEY I've been in here for 5 minutes!!! Let me out already!"
Instead you will go
"((Hey i've been in here for a bit mind letting me out?"
(( = Out of Character OOC for Short
Next up is thoughts Something on your mind?
These are when thier intended to be heard by everyone but a not vaguely important eg.
"*This guard is an idiot... he's not even wearing his armour on right*"
* = Thoughts Put it on both ends of the chat
And Also Actions
These are intended whenver your roleplaying an action eg.
"Ahhh im Injured... -Lays down next to the tree-"
- = Actions Put in on both ends of the chat
And Finally for when your having a conversation with a NPC
Mainly used if your trying to advance your Rp Story With an NPC
Eg.
"Guard: What... there's nothing wrong with my armour! its the new armour?"
Just put the NPC's Name infront of the Chat
Plus the final thing is MetaGaming: put simply as
Treat the game for real unvision everyone because in real life you can't see everyone.But if you do have vision with someone and they say rob a bank you can't say they did it unless your character saw them and was standing near them. basically it must actually be real.. You can't say someone robbed a bank just because they're the only thief in the game you hav e to have actual proof.
This counts for talking as well in character you can't talk to someone on the other side of the map now can you... they wouldn't hear you...?
Ok so so far we know the basics of what RPing is and the rules Commands And a Lesson in MetaGaming
Final lesson:Your Bio and Character
We have all you need to know now heres how to make your character
In Fantasy Life you get to choose your name so most people go for example
Daniel Hills (16)
The 16 represents Character Age In Brackets...
Now make yourself a Bio this doesn't have to be told but can affect what happens in your story so if you go in to your house and sleep and your characters Bio suggests they have a bad history they might have nightmares...
And also choosing your job and class... Even tho this is more ingame it has a small link to the Rp
Saying you must be stronger! and must go to the woodsman to train...
Or Saying... i was always a smith... since i was 12 (Bio)
So thats all i can tell you about that make your own bio and name up!
And Finally... Being a King: A Small message only But Act like a real king set taxes set your government get people arrested make enemies or even start as a citizen and take over the crown becoming an evil king! its normally very fun when someone becomes an evil king because then you all work together to take back the kingdom but if you are an evil king... one message
Give them a chance...
I hope you enjoyed this Tutorial and have fun RPing with your new found Skills and Knowledge
Goodbye!
