Back again with some tips for the Intermediate Rper. Now that you know what an entrance and noob is, its time to get more "intimate" with your Rp style. Here's a basic term you need to know:
-
"More than casual" wording: More than casual wording is just adding a little spark in what you say/type. For example, instead of doing this:
-Vlad though about it.- "I don't think that's a good idea." Instead, add a little more information and feeling to the text, and do this:
-Vlad mulled the thought over in his mind, quietly contemplating the decision. After a moment of silence between them, Vlad nervoulsy ran a hand through his hair and looked at his uncle.- "Otis, I don't think that going after D'Ablo tonight would be a good idea. Doing that would be putting more than half of the people in Bathory in mortal danger of the sadistic vampire." *Tip:Adding a little "zest" to your entrance can enhance the mood, and get the person you're Rping with like you more. People like it when you use a lot of feeling in what you write, likewise with any response throughout the Rp.*
========================================================================
Remember, giving the characters real depth and emotion is a crucial factor of a good Rp. Without that factor, the Rp is as good as dead.
Don't forget that it's your duty to the Rper to make the Rp enjoyable for your partner, as well as you. Don't be too hasty in what to type, sometimes taking the time to write a good response is more worthwhile to the person your writing too, than typing a dumb response in about 5 seconds.
Another word of advice, Rper's tend to like to be exact in their wording and spelling. Usually, Rper's are pretty articulate, and they tend to use big fancy words to describe certain emotions or events. They also hate it when you use a word wrong/incorrectly, and it REALLY ticks them off when you don't have correct spelling.
Example: -Jimmy chewd on an appl.- Nobody likes an idiot who can't spell, so take the time to check over what you wrote so that it's spelled correctly.
Don't forget that what you write has to make sense. You can't have an axe murderer come into a make out scene randomly. It's pretty retarded, and the person you're Rping with will be thinking: WTH???? Actually, they might even type it in brackets instead of their repsonse/next post because they have absolutely NO IDEA what the hell you're getting at or what you're talking about.
Another thing that Intermediate/Advanced Rper's hate is when you use text lingo in an Rp. For Example:
-Carla was a h8r, so she said.- "4 rl lozr?" Nobody likes that. If you're going to Rp, take it seriously, otherwise the other person will leave because this Rp was just not worth their time. And its not. If you're going to Rp, be professional about it, and both you and your partner will only get the best and most out of the experience.
========================================================================
So remember, Rping is all about fun and doing stuff your way. To answer some previous questions, yes you can have more than one Rp character, but you keep it to one character per Rp session. You don't want to confuse the other person, unless like my Rp character, the first one you go with happens to have an evil twin that transforms and takes control of the body of the first character randomly. Have fun Rping my friends, and I'm glad to have cleared some things up for the Intermediate Class Rpers!

That up there is a certified epic Vladimir Tod Wallpaper. For those of you who've read the EPIC series, you'd know that this is probably a spitting image of Vlad, and I must say, I love it as my wallpaper.
Lolz this next one I deem pretty awesome. I prefer the style of cyberpunk lately from anything else, and this has made a pretty damn cool wallpaper for the last 2 hours XD I had to change it back to Vladimir Tod O-O
