Hello everyone,
Nearly a decade ago, I used to RP at The Rebel Faction and The Gungan Council, if anyone's familiar with those boards. RL pulled me away for quite some time, but I confess that Rogue One's release has me itching to get back into the RP arena. Since the aforementioned boards seem to have died down quite a bit, I thought I'd try something new, and SWRP came up as one of the most active/well-established.
I skimmed through the rules/new user guides, but had a few questions for clarification about the style of RP used here:
- Would someone looking for a text-based, more free-form RP fit in here? I.e., not concerned with numbers and stats, etc, and more concerned with the storytelling aspect through the lens of playing one's own character (and of course avoiding god-moding).
- Also, I noted that characters can be killed off here without the character-owner's permission, or at least that's how I interpreted the rules. Is that correct? Is it a common occurrence for folks to have their characters killed off without prior agreement between interacting parties?
Looks like a very well-developed RP and community, just curious about the RP style so I can go in with the right mindset. Thanks to whoever takes the time to answer!
