Having played on different servers and such I notice people who can stick with concepts that do not conflict too much with their personal beliefs do well.
Yes I know its fantasy.
Prior to this reset I had more time and was able to have two characters. The second one Azura was made after a one time event by which your character was made permadead but you could do the reoll with half the level etc.
Generally I tend to play on the neutral end of things and try to go a bit outside the box.
Before the reset:
Avrora my first character was a rebel of sorts a sorceress who was also a dragonblood and followed Oghma and had three strikes against her. She however managed to become acquaintances and accepted by many of the red wizards.
Azura was also a rebel. A half-elf Druid, follower of Silvanus in the legion and was a pawn in the power struggle and reached the rank of Tribune. As many players who had characters back then were made NPC's, she was a quest giver but Captain however is now demoted due to the new Zulkir decree.
Now
My current character Caramirel is also a half -elf Druid but has more of a complex back ground than Azura did. However unlike Azura she has had a chance to follow her faith.
Unlike my others Caramirel has a chance to develop more as the other characters were retired before they could be level 20.
I get inspiration from others and of course events help, even just getting together with people do run a dungeon or such to get gold or items generates rp.
I am a writer by nature and with Azura and Avrora I wrote down events and personal thoughts in my journals and have done so again with Caramiriel.
I also will use the ingame message boards if I am in need of an item or to advertise skills for hire
I utilize the various interactions and rp I have had for others as well to further my character as well as many help others reach their character goals.
The main goal is try and be true to yourself anf your character. Relax and go with the flow. Hard as it is sometimes to do so listen more and speak less during some rp interactions as that could lead to further rp.
We are lucky this server has an active dm and admin support, yet we can not always rely on them or should we for creating rp as they are players too. :D
Enough events have occurred that rp can be built off of.
Also more experienced players need to concider that new players may not be aware of events that have happened and further explaination may be necessary. I experienced that when I came here almost three years ago.
New players please do not feel sad you may have not been there for world changing events, but as in life game life moves on and you will have a chance to be a small part of the history.
I also like to take photos in real life so when I can during an event I try and takle screens then and post them. Sometimes I just may take random shots.
One major thing is try and get ingame clues as to what a player may or may not feel comfortable with. I try to do that in game but if I feel if maybe people are not getting a clue thats it is uncomfortable to me I will have may character leave using and ig option of course but if that fails then I will either send them a tell in game explaining why ooc it bothers me or in a PM. I have rarely had to do that here.
Also guilty as charged, I try to keep tells down to a minimum it is a something I have to constantly watch out for. I do not mind a tell from a new player if its something in regards to mechanics or a question about a class.
