I'm Shroud, and I am newly registered. I've RP'd before, but never Starwars. I assume I'm supposed to choose a side and make a profile, because that's kind of common sense, but I don't really know what to do next.
Welcome to SWRP, Shroud! There are many factions to choose from, the major ones being the Chiss, Sith Empire, Galactic Alliance/Jedi, and the Mandalorians. You could also choose for your character to remain neutral. Once you have that down, just work on their background, put it in a profile, and then you're set. Once you have a profile, you can find others to role-play with or just jump into a role-play thread labeled [OPEN]. If you have anymore questions, feel free to ask. Best of luck!
Welcome Shroud! I suggest you read the Rule and Guidelines forum, specifically the roleplaying rules, and also the info that describes the timeline we are playing in. Hopefully you will have a better understanding of what is going on here. Also be aware that there are some pretty crazy people around here... and if you have any questions feel free to ask them in the appropriate forums. :D
