If you asked someone they’d label them as [The Activist] because of [handwritten protest signs and vines of Ivy growing on the side of a well loved building].

hey! im new to discord rp and was wondering how this one is set up? like is done through locations or individual threads? im a sucker for small town rps,, but I'm also a noob with discord.
hi there and thanks for the question! so our channels are set up by character! when you create an individual thread, whichever character is starting the interaction adds it to their category! we also have two main group chats one for students which is only for students of north grove university and then the town groupchat which is for everyone!

do you have any underrated jobs or favorites you'd like to see more of? it's always the same things in indie/rp in general nowadays.
i admittedly haven't been properly in rp in months , and idk the indie world but honestly just having an everyday job would be cool to see ! like i know this is rp and u can be fantastical , but we can also be realistic !!! with that said , here's a mix of jobs i always find kinda fun to write abt / give . some are obvs a bit out - there , but some are just kinda cute and every-day-ish !
events coordinator ( slightly always run off their feet , always fielding a million calls ? )
tour guide at a museum / aquarium / zoo / haunted house ( think of how much knowledge they'd have and how much they probably love their job bc they're passionate ? )
wedding planner ( probably always lowkey has smth salty to say abt ANY wedding they're planning fdjfnj )
barista ( like someone who literally loves coffee and loves making coffee and can do all the patterns and is just a huge coffee fiend ? )
camera crew for a production company ( think of their arms . . so strong n sexy from holding cameras all day wow . theyre probably also a night owl bc they work all hours ? )
any female in STEM ( i can't help it i know nothing about the sciences but anyone in stem especially a female is just BADASS )
a diplomat ( idk why but i always find this job to be so fancy ? mb bc i live in a city thats got a lot of diplomats and im just in Wonder of them dfknjfnj )
a surgeon ( honestly i dont think i've ever seen a surgeon written before ? they'd have a lot to say im sure jkfnfjn )
a nurse ( they have to be literally the kindest most empathetic ppl on earth i have so much respect for them and their tough as heck jobs )
a high school teacher ( think abt how jaded they are / tired they are after dealing with TEENAGERS all day )
a news presenter / anchor ( they definitely work odd hours and are also just perpetually Exhausted )
a chef / cook ( always creating smth fun and new . probably spends all day cooking so when they got home theyre exhausted and warm up a microwave meal for themselves ? fjkfdf )
a fitness coach ( bc why not ? enjoys working out and motivating ppl and helping them achieve their fitness Goals )

welcome to olive grove, venus!! please check your messages for a link to the server!
Is that [VIKTOR ANTONOV]? I heard [HE/HIM] look a lot like [DARWIN GRAY] and they’re [TWENTY FOUR]. If you asked someone they’d label them as [THE ENIGMA] because of [KEEPING EVERYONE AT ARMS LENGTH — INTIMACY IS A LUXURY YOU CANNOT AFFORD and THE IDLE STRUMS OF AN ACOUSTIC GUITAR ECHOING THROUGH AN EMPTY ROOM]. Some would say they’re [CHARISMATIC AND INSIGHTFUL] but they’re also [PRETENTIOUS AND DISSOLUTE]. I also heard that they live around [SUNCREST PLACE APARTMENTS] and are a [MUSICIAN]. Let’s see how well they fit in at Olive Grove!

A LIST OF PLOTLESS TOWN RP-FRIENDLY CHARACTER IDEAS & CONNECTIONS INSPIRED BY MOVIES! (PART 1)
click here for part two.
i collected a couple of plot ideas from some of the movies i thought had interesting stories or characters that i hope can help you with your applications / character connections. please note that a lot of these are, by no means, the actual plots of the films and are only inspired by them. i’ve taken the liberty of making a couple of edits for them to be ‘plotless town rp-friendly’. also, i would’ve separated them by category (platonic, romantic, familial, etc.) but tbh a lot of these can be taken in any way so feel free to put your own spin on them, too, or even make combinations!
trigger warnings: nothing too specific, but there are light mentions of death, road accident, infidelity, illness, injury, drug addiction.
now, without further ado:

you just joined a new rp group , you’re SO excited. you love your character but when you open up a new post to tell all the other members about them ? nope. you close the draft. log off , never to be seen again. i’ve been there. here’s how u can tackle that intro without collapsing in on yourself.
tips for writing an intro .
first , i want to emphasize how important character intros are. even in groups where they are not required , i highly encourage you to write one! members don’t know who your character is yet! it’s also useful to organize your thoughts and fill in any gaps.
set up your blog theme & navigation. and fill up your tags!! i always do this , as soon as i’m accepted and before i send in my account. it always fills me with muse. this is the time to at least start drafting your intro , when your muse is at its highest ; who knows when you’ll get it back ?!
read other intros. see what others are saying or including in theirs. check the main for a template of questions to address , or even ask the admins if they have any prompts relating to the group’s world that you should include! that’s their job!! intros do not have to be stressful .
take a step back if you continue to struggle with what to write. if you force yourself to write words you’re going to get frustrated and you’re not going to happy with the resulting chaos of an intro ok!! i’m sure you have a pretty good idea of your character at this point , but if you don’t , now is a good time to flesh them out a little more.
introduce yourself right away in the intro. your alias , pronouns , a fun fact about yourself ? just break the ice that way. it’s a pretty standard way to start off an intro when you’re in a group! your muse is important , but it’s just as crucial to make yourself approachable to members with prospective plots!
pls don’t worry about a graphic. a lot of people have them or make them , but attaching just a gif or even no type of visual at all is not a crime. graphics are totally , and utterly , overrated. your character is awesome and you don’t need a fancy aesthetic to prove that!!
be brief. long biography-like paragraphs are amazing , but those are best kept on an about / bio page on your character’s blog , to be added to and updated as time goes on and the plot progresses! an intro is just that: an introduction. to spare your fellow members who have MANY intros to read, stick to the most important points for your intro post. that absolute need-to-knows.
that being said , for this next part , i suggest keeping each to one bullet point and less than 150 words. and you do not need to address all of them!! it depends so much on the rp. again , there are no rules for length!
some questions to get u started .
how old is your muse ? what is their gender ? their occupation ? where do they live ?
what was their childhood like ? why do they act the way they do ?
how do they act ? how do their traits project in their behavior ?
who was a big influence on their life , good or bad ?
what hardships have they faced ? what are their most defining & memorable experiences that have shaped them ?
where has your character been since the rp began ? explain their absence if you’ve just joined or the immediate events leading up to the group’s opening.
how are they taking the current situation / plot of the roleplay ? what role do they play that makes them crucial to the rp ?
what connections are you seeking for your muse and how can members contact you to discuss them ?

so you’ve been roleplaying for years… things change, the way the community does things shift, and sometimes there’s new skills you need to pick up and adjust to in order to make your time rping as creatively rich and fulfilling as it can be. one of those things that’s become extremely important is plotting & hcing. either in groups, in indie, or doing 1x1s, these two are the foundation to your interaction (unless you’re the type to wing it). sometimes when i interact with people, it seems they don’t really click with this process, so in the guide below, i’ll help to explain why these are so important, and how to do it in a way that not only gives you a rich plot, but helps inspire and keep your writing partner engaged with you.
disclaimer — this is just my personal experience and opinions being shared. i am not the end-all-be-all on how to interact with writing partners. this is just here to get people to begin thinking about things they otherwise wouldn’t have thought about.
questions regarding this help post can be found here. let’s jump in!
