new to regular rp

When you want to ask out of character questions, discuss plots, talk about roleplaying or simply present your character’s bio, this is the place to do so. Small OOC bits may be accepted in the roleplaying forums, but this is the place for the larger posts. Do keep the topics related to the roleplaying however, otherwise go to the General Discussion forum.

[color=indigo:37yxe51m]D'aerth is the sirname of the mercenary band that Jarlaxle created (Bregan D'aerth). It is also the name that Jarlaxle himself goes by, despite the fact that he is (or was, now that she's dead) Yvonnel Baenre's third son.[/color:37yxe51m]

Oh yeah, now I remember. Thanks. It's been a long time since I cared about the Drizzt series.

Err I am here, we are waiting on one.

While at times it does make sense to not wait and continue the story with some players, the OP does deserve more consideration because of setting the theme.

Well I can end all of them, as long as I have the Green Suit. Of course if I intervien too much I will be Blue again, if not banned by the High Priestress from even being here.

Never Ending stories that do not move cleary is a problem for me. A nice solution for all of them would be nice. It also needs to be fair.

Perhaps we could work with a 2008 rule, enter RP after that (and all existong RP) require a post at least once a week.

[color=indigo:1jegd8p6]I meant a story end, not killing it by moderator locking or deletion. You know, like "and they all lived happily ever after...." Except not so trite. :p [/color:1jegd8p6]

I understand what you meant, just it is hard for me or anyone else to bring all to an ending, or even a pause.

There are some threads, Tembles that I offered that were open ending., there are others that the OP had a goal in place.

None of these can be completed if needed players are gone.
We as a group can write about a minor player, it becomes very hard to write about a major player.

The
OP tends to be a major player, the one that sets the goal.

Other players can become major players by interaction.

How to decide which is Major as opposed to Minnor depends a lot on interaction of characters.

I never want too list any as Minnor, but at times some charaters do take a secondary role.
