Hello, Im kinda interested in using your fantroll sheet, just one question: What exactly does hemospectrum loyalty mean? I'm a bit confused on this one .
Hello!
It refers to how much/what way your troll abides to the hemospectrum system and the Alternian empire. :) If you got a very loyal lowblood they may look up more to higherblooded trolls and expect them to be wise/strong, or they may seek their approval. They may be proud of their place of the hemospectrum and the work they do for the empire... However they can also be loyal in a sense of “not wanting to cause any trouble” where they will talk behind the back of dumb highbloods and be at least somewhat aware of their oppression, but not willing to get in trouble to do anything about it!
A hemoloyal highblood may put themselves on a pedestal and look down at lowbloods, or maybe pity them. But they could also very much treat trolls of any caste with respect, and just feel that the system is there for a reason, to bring out the best of each caste and so the empire won’t collapse!
Basically, it’s their political opinion and how they act on it in reference to the current politics of Alternia under the lead of a tyrianblooded troll and a hierarchy putting different blood colors as different worth and different rights etc.
For the last anon, I rp on parp all the time as my fantrolls, and my tips are: No overcomplicated quirk, people tend to disconnect pretty quickly about this. Read the bbcode guide, site rules, and user guide, this one is probably the most important! Be aware that the majority of canon rps dislike rping with OCs, so unless you're dead set on rping with them, filter out the canons and only search for other OCs. Lastly, make sure your color isn't neon bright, this one is the most common mistake.
Hey, sorry if you've been asked this before, but do you have any tips one roleplaying a fantroll on websites like MSPARP? I swear I saw a guide somewhere a long time ago, but now whenever I look it up there's only guides on making fantrolls. Thanks!
I wish I did, but I personally never roleplayed there aside from with closed groups so I don’r have any real experience!

I really wanna make a blog for my fantrolls, but I have never made an ask/rp blog before, so how would I go about it?? (I'm askin bc you're one of my favorite troll blogs tbh)
:000000000 !!! WELL I CAN TRY TO HELP by telling you things i think should be on your blog and that might help with organization.
have your ooc info somewhere on your blog! either in a visible ooc/about page or right in the description of your blog. basic info should be what you’d like to be called and your age. and what pronouns you prefer, if you have a preference at all. but please include your age. pleeeaaaase please include your age or at least a little *18+* or *minor* somewhere on the blog. there are some minors in this community that don’t follow/interact with adults. likewise there are adults (like myself) who feel uncomfortable rping minors (but i don’t have a problem with minors following me, just getting that out there). AND NOTHING is more stress-inducing than going on someone’s page when you might want to interact with them and seeing no indication of age range.
get yourself a sweet theme! one of the toughest parts of having an rp blog is finding a theme that’s cool but functional. people should be able to easily find your links, preferably on your home page, without having to click three different links and passing two disclaimers just to get to THE ACTUAL LINKS. i have literally refused to follow someone because their theme was too complicated. there are several tumblrs that are designated solely to rp blog themes. @roleplay-theme-recs @rpthemehunter @theme-hunter are all pretty good.
profiles are important! have a select page and try to keep it up to date with your available trolls! sometimes i get people going “i have this troll i’d like yours to meet” and i’m like SWEET and i go on their blog and i see…. no profile with that name. and so i know nothing about this character. even if it’s just a skeleton profile with like, name, caste, age, appearance, ANYTHING helps. you can make profiles out of entirely new pages like I do, or you can make profile posts and just link to them like I’ve seen others do.
avoid autoplay music. some people like to have mood music on their blogs. that’s fine. just make sure we have the option of hitting play ourselves rather than having to rush to hit pause. owo
once you feel like you can at least show people that hey this is a troll blog (i’m talking like maybe one profile/wip profiles and an about. your blog does not have to be 100% for you to start getting active) make a follower call post! what’s that? that’s where you make a post going “Hey i’m new!! I’d like to follow some more people in this community, please reblog so I can find you!!” and you tag it #fantrolls or #fantroll or #fantroll-community or all three. and do u know what magic happens?? people reblog it. and they see you and they go OH SWEET ANOTHER FANTROLLER and then they follow you! while you’re looking to follow them. it’s a wonderful mutual thing.
and then you just gotta reach out to people. send memes. reply to posts. ask questions. some of my closest friends in this community are people who i spent a few months just replying to their posts with stupid shit and vice versa.
also, look at >THIS BLOG<. Read it. Love it. Taima and Linda worked really hard to put this info together. it hasn’t been updated in a while but that doesn’t make it any less useful.
Thanks Bunny for posting the last link! As a note, while that blog didn’t get any recent inquiries or more rec added to it yet, we are open to questions (and I check this blog at least once a day, so even if you decided to ask a question in the morning, I’d get back to you within a day! Or if Taima is around when the question is asked and they get back to you earlier thats the other scenario.)
I need some help. I'm working on my trolls (and one human) session and I want to ask if these headconons would be feasible. 1) When all requirements are met for the ultimate reward, the door is permanently there. 2) When entering the door, the one who opens the door gains Godhood, but is in a parallel timeline all together. Finally 3) Anyone who has Godhood over their timeline can reinsert themselves, but they are the absolute polar opposite, both in personality and in God tier/aspect.
Owlmod here!
Regarding headcanons, while I am not big on the SGRUB/SBURB side of the rping, they seems perfectly feasible!
If you want people to be aware of it, you could add them either to your Disclaimer page or your Rules page so that other people will be aware of you having these headcanons (or perhaps set up a headcanon page to include your other headcanons on it as well and linking it back to your Disclaimer/Rules page~)
Since the topic of nsfw/ and tags came up I figured I’d reblog this again!
Now there was a long time since this was written, so please feel free to send an ask to @thetrollbloghelp if you feel anything needs to be edited and/or added.
Do most fantroll RPers RP before their trolls played the game? Cause thats what it seems like, but IDK
Owlmod here!
From what I personally know, most fantroll rp blogs are their own AU, since in canon any and all trolls are dead save for those who are still alive.
And unless a blog states they are there for a SGRUB/SBURB session (whenever in their blog description or on their about page), they are most likely not related to it or to the canon characters!
Some blogs are multi-muse and canon character friendly, but then again, those will state it. I am personally not a fan of mixing SGRUB/canon characters into my characters lives, but I won’t nitpick at others if they do, it is their own blog!

hello! i've been absolutely unable to find any good sites/software/methods for organizing fantrolls(and other characters) other than charahub(set questions and odd group system), various invite-only sites, or doing it all from scratch. there's really nothing out there. any suggestions?
Hello, Owlmod here!
Charahub is an excellent alternative, I also own one myself (although for non fantroll characters at this point.) The site also offers a list of interesting questions one might not think of, so that is one thing I like about it!
The other site that I am aware of, and could be used as character storing is Toyhou.se . Although the site is in invite alpha at this point, its a pretty nifty site, which, once it opens its gates will be a lovely experience.
I am not sure of any other websites myself, I know that some people tend to use Excel or Google Drive Sheets to organize their fantrolls/sessions (If they have alot of them.)
I am going to ask Taimamod if she knows about any other websites, personally I am only aware of those two.
So in light of recent events it has come to my attention that there are a few people in this group who have difficulties saying no…so I made a little guide on how to!
hey heres a quick tip for people who want to send ask memes to others but dont know their characters well enough to pick one!!
try specifying with a general characteristic rather than a name! instead of “do this question for [character name]“, try something like “do this question for your shortest character”, or “oldest character”, “nicest character”, etc etc
that way you dont have to go through all of their characters if you dont know them, but you can still make someone happy by sending them a cool ask!
So you would like to pick a good theme out of the many that exists that not only suits your needs but it is also easy to navigate? You are at the right place!
Below the cut you will find some useful tips on what makes a theme good, in terms of easy accessing, navigating, etc., making it easier to choose from, as well as other tips !

Picking the theme - Where to start and what you should consider!
Installing custom themes
Good vs Bad themes
How to fix link-url
1. Picking a theme
Picking a theme is a key factor when it comes down to any roleplay blogs. Not only would you like to make it look nice, you would also like to have the pages easily noticeable/reachable.
Consider the following when picking a theme!
Is it easy to navigate?
Is it simple to edit for you?
Is it pleasing to the eye (colour wise)?
Is the content easy to see/find?
Is the text readable?
Does it have enough links?
Is the theme good for small and big screens alike?
If the theme meets all of these criterias and it is comfortable to use, then you have got yourself a handy dandy good theme! I will link to a few useful tumblr blogs whom got really great custom themes!
Blogs such as :
Manatopia
Vivian Themes
Zuvia Themes
Magnus Themes
2. Installing custom themes
Once you have a found a theme that is to your liking and easily navigateable as well, you should head over to your dashboard. Under your url you will find many options, you will need Customize.
Once you clicked onto it, your page should look like this :
We will need the panel above, namely the Edit HTML option. Once you clicked onto it, it should take you to this page. It contains the HTML code of your Tumblr blog.
The easiest way to get rid of the code of the theme you don't want to use is by clicking into the window and pressing Ctrl+A and then Ctrl+ X. Your window should look like this if you succesfully removed the theme's HTML code.
As your next step, you should open a new Tab, and if you have found the perfect theme, there are always two links underneath the preview. Static Preview (you can get a view of the theme without any edits being made to it) and Download.
When clicking to download, it should take you to pastebin.com (a website that theme makers prefer to use to save the code for their themes). You need to scroll to the bottom and copy the code from the RAW Paste Data window. (Ctrl+A + Ctrl+C is your friend to copy the code easily.)
Once you got the code, you should go back to your other tab and insert it in the empty place where the old code were with Ctrl+V. When you've done so, just click "Update Preview" and you'll get an updated version of your blog with the new theme if done right!
Note: If your blog already had colours changed they might get changed according to the theme.
Once you saved the theme, in the sidebar there are alot of options that you can fiddle with and play around with.
Something important that I should note : If your theme got Infinite Scrolling turned on by default, consider turning that off! Some themes try to load every single post right away ever since you made your blog, which can be overwhelming to some older computers/laptops and eat up data for those with limited data-usage/data plan.
“Hello, there! My name is Rosalind (blackjackkent in the Tumblrverse), and I am a Tumblr geek, RP addict, and software engineer. Whether by luck or fate, you have stumbled into my current project, and I hope it serves you well!
I came up with this idea primarily as a way to combat the strange behavior of the Tumblr activity page, which, while no doubt fine for the average user, is unreliable for the needs of the Tumblr RP community. While still somewhat limited by the capabilities of the Tumblr API and its related systems, I hope this app will be useful to those who participate in Tumblr RP, allowing a better way to track interactions that are currently open and manage threads individually.
If you have any suggestions, find any bugs in the site, or just want to communicate, please feel free to contact me!
Note: This site is in no way affiliated with Tumblr, nor does it make any direct connection to your account or posting permissions. It retrieves information solely through Tumblr's public application programming interface.”
I was just shown this by a friend and figured it could be useful for some of you!
