Welcome to Gaia! ::

I'm here.

lol. Okay, who do we want to put together? Your mare and one of mine, or your stallion and one of mine, to start this RPing lesson?

Alright. We've now established characters. I'm throwing in Orion. And now to determine who will start. Though, for this round, I will start the Role playing.

Now, RPing is just like writing a story. Though, you have to people having the input into it. I will know the story going one way, and you have in your head that it will go another way. Sometimes, you can collaborate with one other and get it to go a direction you both like. Or, you can just go together and see what happens.

A lot of the time, you will see RPers go in one sentence.

Example:

Orion stood there on a hill and looked around.


Sometimes, when there is nothing else to say, this works. However, I wouldn't do it too many times, because you are missing a good peice of information. If you read a story that was like that, you wouldn't be reading it very long. You need to flesh it out.

For Example:

Orion stood on a hill, looking at the silvery specks in the sky above. His silver eyes reflected the ancient patterns of the stars above him; his own gaze the same color as the stars that were part of his namesake. A crisp breeze swirled around his ankles, and caused his mane to rise and fall gently from the side of his neck. The snow was unbroken up here, save for the steps that he had taken to get to this unbroken expanse. But he had put those to his back, so that there was nothing but a clean white field out before him. There were no imperfections that would draw his gaze to anything other then what he wanted to look at; the silvery stars in the heavens above.

See how that makes that much more interesting to read? And gives you information about what's around, the temp, wether it's night or day, and whatnot.

Was she thinking about who was up on top of her favorite hill, or did she say it out loud?

Try this. It's really good.

Yeah, because you don't want the other person to be confused. it's like explaining to someone online what you're doing. It's like;
I'm playing on the computer.

Or, yo ucould say:

I'm talking to my friend on the phone, eating a pizza with one hand, and typing with the other. So, what you doing? xD

it lets people create a visual image to go by.

Orion felt someone approaching from behind, and turned to face the one that came his direction. Though his eyes were removed from the heavens, his coat still sparkled like the stars they represented as though they had come from the sky and settled onto him in their own pattern. Steam came from the end of his muzzle as he let out a breath into the chilly night. And since his coat blended with the sky, it looked as though he faded into the heavens that were behind him; giving him an odd look of being half on earth, and half in the heavens.
