Resources & Current, Paused, and Pending Roleplays (Sticky!)
« on: March 11, 2015, 10:31:02 pm »
[ORIGINALLY BY INQUISITORDUST (DUSTY), NOW PORTED HERE BECAUSE IT'S OURS!]

Welcome to the Utterly Mad Resources & Current, Paused, and Pending Roleplays section! I devised this away from the Rec Room Discussion since this is more informational than a place to talk. As mentioned above, all credit and things you see here are here because the incredible Dusty Trails put it all together on the C:DDA Rec Room Discussion some time ago. So give a hand to that lovely gal! Other than that, expect the Roleplays to be updated as they come and go. Be sure to list your roleplay below so that I can put it on the list if I don't do it already!

Some new information could use some mentioning. We're trying to get a bit more organized here: (Old C:DDA Rec Room Rules, let me know if we still plan on keeping these.)
  • A limit of one roleplay run by any given person at a given time. There may be some exceptions, but ask about it. Other games like suggestion games and normal forum games DO NOT count against this rule.
  • After 5 days without posts, an RP is moved out of the active list and into a pending list and a vote will be held as to whether we should consider it dead or keep it going. If it remains untouched for 7 days, it'll be considered dead. If you wish to revive an RP, it can be brought back assuming you aren't running another RP.

Also, the official Rec Room Theme Song courtesy of Hibou.

Player and GM Resources

Roleplaying Tips and Guides

Helpful Tools
  • Random.org: Dice rollers, coin flippers, lotteries, drawing cards. Anything random you'd need you can find here
  • D&D Dice Roller: If you need a full range of dice with the abilities to add modifiers and such, check this out.
  • Orokos, another dice roller. This one let's you link to your own rolls, providing proof that you aren't cheating or something.
  • Behind the Name, a random name generator with a TON of options.
  • Fantasy Name Generator, generate ALL THE NAMES.
  • Random Names, just a big 'ol list of names that might work for your characters.
  • Color Picker, for finding JUST the right color for your character.
  • Seventh Sanctum, home to like a gazillion generators.
  • Color Pallets, home to like a gazillion color schemes.

List of Active RPs

Pending RPs

Notable Dead and/or Finished RPs
  • That RP, the First and Only (not actually first OR only, but it sounds cool so yeah). Probably the most popular and longest RP, rivaled only by Spellbound. Unfortunately things started spiraling downwards and That RP kind of just... Stopped. You'll be missed, gang.
  • The Highway. It started off as a simple post-apocalyptic road trip, then it became so much more. So much more.
  • Spellbound. An emotional roller coaster of magical adventures. We started off as young novices, brought from Earth to learn the art of magic to an incredibly dysfunctional (and slightly sex obssessed...) group of powerful magi. But not powerful enough, as it turned out...
  • Rise of the Dynasties was a bit unique in that it played a bit like a strategy or simulation game. You were the head of your family, your dynasty if you will, and had to manage businesses and such. Some political stuff was planned for later on, and provided we'd gone on for long enough, our character's children would have taken over as head of the dynasty. Beyond that, there were also more traditional RP styled adventurers.

(If you have stuff I should add to the resources, please do tell me.)

YOU DID THE DO.

Thanks, based Furaotic.

I think I've got some resources to add to this, but it'll be a bit before I can get links.

As the Gooy Commandant Of the Wonderful Section of the Rec Room, I am please to announce that the rules listed above do not apply. People can make as many RPs as they want.

Now onto my other announcemnt: I will be restarting Darkwinds: Blood and Diesal and the OOC shall be up within the next 20 minutes.
There is probably no more terrible instance of enlightenment than the one in which you discover your father is a man — with human flesh.

This will get updated eventually! If anyone is running an RP that has died, let me know because it's not my duty to say whether something you've done is dead or not!

Adding a new resource! It's a tumblr called Color-Pallets and it has all sorts of color schemes that could really spice up that RP OOC!

Just gonna leave this here.  As much as people seem to dislike Iwaku in terms of it's RP content, there's still some good stuff on there to help improve one's quality of RP, and I found these to be particularly interesting.

Ok, since this is a general RPG dump area for advice, i present my top five favorite Adventure hooks for DND to get players to do an adventure. in no particular order
1: They wake up to find that their hair and boots have been removed in the night.
2: The Innkeeper and other townsfolk have been entirely replaced by different people overnight.
3: A wizard asks them to find his "Pleasure Golem"
4: A kindly NPC they like and have developed with no longer knows them
5: When in doubt, bring in Kidnappings and Drow.
Thanks Peri for making me question muh sexualities once again.
Utterly Mad, where various people self identify as kitchenware.

Another article from that one site.  This one's on GMing, but it's got a few tidbits for players, too.
