Looking for a start on tumblr roleplaying! D: Can you help me and teach me the ways of tumblr rp?
Yush sure! Just tell me what do you need to know. But hereâs the basics:
1. Whenever you make a RP blog, even if the character belongs to some fandom or is OC [a character you made by yourself] - make sure to create an âAboutâ page, or headcanons page, where you tell about your character and etc. That way people will know your character better before rping with you. Also would be nice to mention in your description that youâre a RP blog to let people know.
2. Follow few RP blogs you like, donât hesitant to send them a starter or ask if you can rp with them! Everyoneâs pretty nice and would love to rp with everyone else c:Â
3. Usually people prefer para writing style [Where you write like âHe went outside andâŠâ instead of â-goes outside-â] when it comes to rps with plot. dunno, every person with their own preferance, but I think itâs a good way to rp like that c:
4. Every person who starts rping isnât super connected to his character at first and itâs completely alright! As more you rp - as more you improve with rping and define your character better!
5. Itâd be better also to put rules page, in the rules you can write in what way you like to rp [If for example you donât like rping smut, violence and etc or youâre underage and etc.] so people will know whatâs the best way to rp with you which would make you comfortable.
6. Not everyone does it, but before rping with someone read their rules, and about/headcanons page, it might give you great ideas for plot and youâll be able to get better with your rp partnerâs character, thatâs what I do and itâs def helps me.
7. Reblog random starters so people can send to your ask! But as I said bnefore - better to send a message to the rpers you want to rp with instead.
8. Read tags! People often write OOC stuff in tags to talk with you outside the rp. A very cool fact - as more as you get closer and friendly to the rper partner, it gets much more fun and easier to get along with their muse and opens many new options. Iâve a rp partner that theyâre one of my best friends, and rn our muses cant live without each other [tru story *o*], it will also make you much comfortable and confident to rp with them, I think thatâs a very important step vuv
9. Have fun while rping and donât get stressed! You rp for fun, not to get stressed from it cause you need to answer threads. Rping is a hobby! and in that case it supposed to ease your stress by letting you express yourself through your character or by doing something you enjoy. If you donât feel like rping at the moment - then take a break and answer later! You dont need to get stressed, you dont owe anything to anyone. Just have fun and enjoy your time, people canm wait for replies and you dont have to worry about it!
I hope it helps, Iâm sure people would like to rp with you! Dw about it, just dont be afraid to ask, we donât bite :D
