Now, what do you do in an exam exactly? You roleplay a specific situation of our choosing. The situation you rp is changes each exam, so be careful which character you choose to take the test. Each test taker is limited to four posts. Yes, only four! That's the tricky part. You must complete your rp in just four posts! But don't get discouraged! Its really easy if you follow our outline.
Kurai's basic layout
Length and Pacing: How well paced is your RP? I mean it could be 6 chapters but it could just have your character twiddling your thumbs the whole time. Pacing is important to our RPs. It helps other Users respond better and understand better.
General grammar rules: You know. What you learned in English class.
Personality: Personality is one of the keys to Ria High. Its what makes Ria High unique and each character fun to interact with. We will be looking forward to how your character would respond to various situations. This includes Fighting style, Speech, and descriptions of how they look.
Use of Environment: You know. The Landscapes and all. You are, after all, in this metallic sphere-like room. With another freakin monster! Describe the monster well and the environment itself. Make sure that you also explain how your attacks look like if its all projectiley and stuff ^^.
Details: Details are important to the post too. I mean, you can give a good backbone to an RP with coordinated moves and all. But make sure its good enough so that the reader can follow along easier with your posts!
*Borrowed this from Kurai Gekkou, owner of Ria High, the best rp guild eva!!!
If you would like to sign up, post your screen name and the name of the character you will be using in the sign up thread once it opens. If you have more than one character, please choose just one. Credits are given to your screen name, and thus apply to all your characters, not just the one who earns them.
Once sign ups are closed, the judges will create a thread for you to rp in. It will be in this sub-forum. In that thread there will be a copy of Kurai's guideline, the grading scale, and a randomly picked field for you to complete your task on. You will have exactly two weeks from the time your thread is created to finish your four posts. If you are unable to finish by that time, and have a good reason as to why you weren't able to, you might get an extension.
