Introduction

This is the freestyle roleplaying thread for the Adventurer's Guild (SHF Branch) roleplaying game.​

​

There isn't exactly a specific format to "freestyle" roleplaying, but the atmosphere is more similar to writing a book. This in contrast with the "Quest Report" format of the main game and the casual one-line RP style of the "Tavern".​

​

Usually, players will find a roleplaying partner and take turns writing a story from their character's perspectives. You can use the OOC room to find a writing partner or develop plot ideas.​

Rules

• If you are replying to another player, quote their post.
• The recommended word count for each post is at least 100 words.
• Make sure to include the title, setting, and characters involved in each post.
• Posts that are marked (OPEN) mean that anyone can reply.
• Please do not "powerplay" or "godmode" -- which means controlling someone else's character.

Bonus Reward

• You can collect 15 EXP for every in-character post that exceeds the recommended word count (see above).

Here is an example of freestyle RP.

​ Camping Out Underneath the Stars (OPEN)​ ​ The weather was chilly, but Okarin was happy.​ ​ The slime person hugged their grey cloak closer to themself and leaned back against the ramparts. They had climbed up the half-constructed walls earlier in the evening to get a better view of the city, and the effort had been worth it. Sitting on such a high pedestal, it was like being surrounded in a globe of stars. No matter where they looked, there was the glimmer of sparkling lights. Meteor showers drizzled across the southern sky.​ ​ It was majestic in a way that Okarin had never experienced before.​ ​ Back at home, Okarin had grown up on a pink hazy planet. The atmosphere was thick, and they knew the sun as this warm fuzzy blurry thing. The moon was just a soft glow that was faintly gave an aura to the night sky.​ ​ This was different.​ ​ Very different.​ ​ But the slime person was optimistic.​ ​ | OC: Okarin | Setting: Scribel City | Word Count: 152 |​ ​

Camping Out Underneath the Stars (3) (OPEN) Watching the creature look at the sky, Desmire was intrigued. What was it doing? But either way, this was much more fun than just waiting all night for the Quest to finish. Plus, since it's so quick to go to and from the two places, and it can see from it was from, it was fine. It was fun. Then, while it was watching the creature, it saw another soft looking creature. Desmire wanted to touch it. Moving over, it watched the soft creature quietly move towards the creature. Then, it stopped. Reaching over, it tried touching the soft creature. Then it remembered that it couldn't touch things anymore. Then the soft creature shouted. It was scary. | OC: Okarin | Setting: Scribel City | Word Count: 144 |

A certain loud scream echo in the darkness under this starry night somewhere.

A lone white figure is walking aimlessly in backstreets, the figure look way to alienated in the darkness with her Pure white image like a white shadow is moving & denying the darkness of night.

"!!...Someone shouted... No matter how much the world change this things, will never be lost seems"

The White figure... Kuon whispered her thoughts in silent, yet her voice carry a certain strength to the point that If someone is listening at her right at that moment they will felt a over powering pressure.

She certainly misunderstood something here, but no one can blame her for thinking that something dreadful takes place due to that shout in the middle of the night.

"......but its not of My business, after all I'm just a stranger in this world ..."

Kuon continued her aimless walk in the darkness. in her eyes reflecting neither darkness of night or the beautiful starry night sky, her eye reflect nothing...

Camping Out Underneath the Stars (6) (OPEN)

I unfolded my wings and soared high in the night sky.

The feeling of the air that brushed my feathers was unfamiliar. The flow of the wind was strange to me, as if I was a young chick once again. It was not the scarce air that permeated the Eastern mountain range's sky, but a more full, heavy air. The wind here was not as chaotic as the biting thermals could sometime get. I imagine that it was because we were so… low, so close to the ground. The highest place I saw in this world was a small grassy hill, a lonely tree growing on it.

I was currently headed towards it; the tree will be my temporary nest for this night. I did not want to sleep in what the inhabitants of this town called a 'tavern'. The smell and dirt the establishment was covered with should scare away any customers, yet many still used its services. How stupid… I pity those who lacked wings like mine and were cursed to live on the earth. Yet… Those same 'lesser beings' that me and my tribe often mocked were more crafty and civilized than anything I have ever met before. The buildings and infrastructure was mesmerizing, I will concede them that. Their… acceptance of my self was… shocking. Let us review the events that unfolded today while we fly.

I was immediately taken care of after my unexpected dive into a magical gate. Even though I was a total stranger, they still explained to me the rules and ways of the town; Scribel was its name. They calmed the panicked me down and offered me to become an Adventurer. I am ashamed of this fact, but I too quickly accepted the offer when I heard the price to return to my previous world. It seemed like the fastest way to make money at that time.

But still… another world. I thought their words insane, but looking at the stars and constellations… They were different than the ones I knew of. It brought to my heart a sense of dread, but also of wonder and curiosity. What was this world like? Were there other Aeran like me, lost and confused? Will I ever go back to my tribe? Could I amass wealth and prestige in this world to like I planned to do by going to the capital, to then return triumphant?

I was so deep in my musings that I almost did not notice that I was flying in a circle above the town. Surprised with my lack of attention, I turned and truly headed towards my soon-to-be nest. It was becoming late and I did not want the town people to be scared of an imaginary flying beast. Silly me, they even warned me about not-

"A-Aahh!"

By reflex, I turned my body vertically, my wings catching the air and greatly slowing me down. Turning my eyes toward the ground, I looked for the source of the sound. While my eyes could easily see things from afar, the cover of the night made the task harder. Still, I found the cause of the noise easily from the sky. A young female clothed in white, a dark…being, and a grey puddle? Moving closer to the scene, I landed on a random rooftop and observed the strange beings. It was… funny, to look at. The grey humanoid looked so distorted I could not stop a chuckle from escaping my beak. A worried young man descended from the stone wall and tended to the slime. It was hard to tell if the puddle was supposed to be a slime-like-human or a human-like-slime. I watched with curiosity as the incident played out.

Still, I was now an adventurer, one of this town protector; I could not ignore a potential threat to this city. Landing near them, I spoke to the group of weirdos. They were all suspicious.

Camping Out Underneath the Stars (7) (OPEN) Okarin wasn't sure how it was possible, but somehow this quiet evening had collected a bustling crowd of strangers. ​ ​ It was embarrassing! They weren't all staring at them, were they?​ ​ One of the perks of being a slime was that Okarin did not really need 'eyes' to see. Even as a shapeless puddle, they could still vaguely sense their surroundings. Okarin counted one... two... four different presences. All in the same place! And those people were chattering too. The sound waves of speech bounced off of the slimy puddle, and Okarin listened through their skin.​ ​ —'You're still alive, right? Do you need any help? You took that fall pretty hard.'​ ​ —'Uh... this wasn't my fault.'​ ​ —'Do you need some help over here?'​ ​ Okarin shriveled slightly and suddenly felt shy.​ ​ ...Maybe they could slip away from the crowd while the rest of them were all talking?​ ​ While it was certainly possible for Okarin to form a mouth to speak, it would pretty weird if a puddle suddenly grew a mouth. Okarin was not particularly enthusiastic about being seen as a total freak. They knew that slimes were commonly regarded as monsters — and it probably wouldn't help their case if they started growing gruesome half-limbs and crawled around like a horrifying goo entity from a zombie apocalypse.​ ​ Yes... perhaps it would be better to stay as a puddle for now... at least until they had some privacy again.​ ​ Slowly, Okarin started inching away. Maybe no one would notice if they disappeared?​ | OC: Okarin | Setting: Scribel City | Word Count: 249 |

The woman in Pure white dress and long Silver white hair.. she call herself Kuon, but who knows if thats is her real name.

Kuon watches as she see herself already get dragged in such a weird scenario! Really right in her first day after breaking her damn long solitude & descended in current world!.

<Koun thoughts>
(there is several beings.... Not a single one is normal.. No... literally speaking I'm the weirdest after I'm a @#$.....at least I look more human......right??

Well what must be done now? I certainly don't want to murder in my first day in here )

While Kuon is mulling over in her deep thoughts on what to do next. She failed to notice the ackward mood being formed in silent as every one stop speaking as they became lost for word to say!!!

<Koun thoughts!!>
(...Let see a fox, a slime, a ghost??& a bird like being.......
What happen in the world while I'm in Netherworl........*AHEM* solitude I mean.

dont tell me....Humanity Became extinct!?!?

No calm down me just a few hour ago I meet humans right!?
But they remind me of Those... No there's no way those beings still in the world..
maybe this guys were the new children of the world? Like what humanity are long ago?)

Kuon is in reallllly deep thoughts, thinking sooo many crazy conclusion is just a span of seconds! without even a single change in her beautiful poker face, void of all emotion

As the aura of ackwardness became so unbearable to the point of limit of everyone (Except Kuon) mental health...

And
And
AND!!

Finally! someone break the short yet eternity like silent and speak something again!

Kuon: ....Hi

Kuon make the first move and greets with a Hello!! While no visible change in her facial expressions except, for a very slight curve formed in her lips to form a rare little smile from her face

..................
..................
..................
..................

Someone finally speak yet breaking everyone's relief with such a mood killer greeting... Everyone felt a weird mood of dissatisfaction somehow

Oblivious about how she just break the ackward mood and created a new one Kuon is happy in herself.

(Yes! Greeting the new children of the world... The world new citizen is the right thing to do! *Nods* *nods* I did a good job! Good job me!! Yay!!♪)

She thoughts with a poker face void of emotion except for the slight smile in her lips.

"What are they doing over there?" muttered Kail as he/she looks over at the scene.

The crowds were staring at the silver-haired girl while one odd slime tried to wriggle her/his/its way out of the situation. Kail quickly ignored the crowd and focused its attention on the lone slime.

'Is the weird slime has some sort of emotions? The way it wriggled reminds me of my shy junior trying to wrestle her way out of an embarrassing situation. ' Kail thought to itself silently. 'Well, it is not like my job or anything to interfere with the situation right now.'

Alas, Kail could not subdue his/her curiosity on the weird slime and sneakily block the slime path. It seems the slime realized Kail's intention but it didn't run away as he/she thought. The slime wriggles in resignation and waited for Kail to approach it.

"Hello, little slime. Can you understand what I said? If you do please shake three times." Kail stared at the slime from a safe distance. Kail experienced with the slimes in the city has already told him/her that slime is quite powerful if you were careless.

Slime seems to ponder over whether to respond to Kail's greeting or not.

Kail patiently waited as the crowd grew in size.

"Could you get a bucket or something? I don't think this puddle can move easily in its current state."

How intriguing.

The young human boy was giving me an order. He asked me to clean the grey puddle on the ground, as if I knew how to create a 'bucket' out of thin air. Only a shaman could do something like that, though I doubted even the one from my tribe could pull that off. Such a feat akin to 'Creation' was impossible for a hunter such as myself. That meant that he ordered me to 'fetch' something, instead of creating it. Me, a proud hunter of the 'white headed eagles', reduced to a lowly lackey…!

No. Calm down. He asked me nicely, I think. It was quite hard to understand humans facial expressions. I needed to adapt to this new world and…cooperate with others. My feathers shook at that dreadful epiphany. I did not mind fighting with my race's warriors. Helping this town and its people? I did not know the answer yet.

Still, I needed to clean that slime for some reason. I was exhausted and hungry, so I decided to quickly fulfill the request. Taking the cloak that fell down on the ground, I looked for the-

"Hello, little slime. Can you understand what I said? If you do please shake three times."

Here it is.

Walking towards the slime, I noticed the crowd that gathered around us. Most were drunkards interested in a strange nightly event to entertain themselves. There were some armed people, but I did not think they were a threat against me. I ignored all of them and approached the slime. Now that I think about it, was there not some quests about some slimes posted in the Adventurer's Guild? Something about a tide…

Finally getting to the slime, I looked at the strange woman who spoke up in wonder. The humans really all have different hair color and features even among the same gender… I decided to ignore her thinking that she was not really important. I was tired, alright?

I crouched and enveloped the immobile slime with its own cloak. It struggled in my claws, and I noticed that the cloak was not big enough to keep it inside of it. Sighing in frustration, I took off my precious shawl and used it as an additional layer for my makeshift bag. I did not want to get it dirty, but I was tired and impatient.

Turning to the others, while I had in my hands a struggling slime bag, I spoke up.

"Well then. I will bring that to the Adventurer's Guild. You can now disperse."

I wanted to quickly fly away and get some rest.

Camping Out Underneath the Stars (11) (OPEN).

"Could you get a bucket or something? I don't think this puddle can move easily in its current state."

How intriguing.

The young human boy was giving me an order. He asked me to clean the grey puddle on the ground, as if I knew how to create a 'bucket' out of thin air. Only a shaman could do something like that, though I doubted even the one from my tribe could pull that off. Such a feat akin to 'Creation' was impossible for a hunter such as myself. That meant that he ordered me to 'fetch' something, instead of creating it. Me, a proud hunter of the 'white headed eagles', reduced to a lowly lackey…!

No. Calm down. He asked me nicely, I think. It was quite hard to understand humans facial expressions. I needed to adapt to this new world and…cooperate with others. My feathers shook at that dreadful epiphany. I did not mind fighting with my race's warriors. Helping this town and its people? I did not know the answer yet.

Still, I needed to clean that slime for some reason. I was exhausted and hungry, so I decided to quickly fulfill the request. Taking the cloak that fell down on the ground, I looked for the-

"Hello, little slime. Can you understand what I said? If you do please shake three times."

Here it is.

Walking towards the slime, I noticed the crowd that gathered around us. Most were drunkards interested in a strange nightly event to entertain themselves. There were some armed people, but I did not think they were a threat against me. I ignored all of them and approached the slime. Now that I think about it, was there not some quests about some slimes posted in the Adventurer's Guild? Something about a tide…

RIP Okarin.
@ohko You might want to save yourself.

Camping Out Underneath the Stars (12) (OPEN)​ With those parting words, the avian flew off, carrying the grey blob away. However, Baihua was still curious about the creature - and the eagle.​ ​ In his home world, not many creatures could fly on their own. Since it required constant mana, not many magic users could do it either. For those without the ability, flight was something many dreamed of, and items which enabled it were highly sought after.​ ​ If I pay him, will he carry me around town? It seems like it's convenient.​ ​ Oblivious to the eagle's annoyance, his only thoughts about him was whether he could use him as a taxi. Thankfully, the eagle couldn't hear his thoughts.​ ​ Quickly, he ran after the two, following them to the guild hall. Despite their different methods, Baihua could almost keep up with the flying carrier. As they touched down in front of the building, he called out to them.​ ​ "Hey~"​ Baihua | 151 words​ ​

Camping Out Underneath the Stars (13) (OPEN) Okarin only wiggled a few inches away before suddenly someone grabbed them!​ ​ The bird! It was the bird! A really really big bird!​ ​ Mortified, Okarin struggled harder but the birdperson covered them with his shawl, enveloping them in some kind of sack-like structure. Mind you, it was a very unpleasant feeling. Okarin had never been put inside a bag before, and it gave them a claustrophobic feeling especially since—​ ​ —Ah! ​ ​ They were flying!​ ​ Flying!!!​ ​ The lurching movements from the sudden altitude change made Okarin sick to their stomach... ​ ​ This was bad... very bad... because any moment now...​ ​ —Sploosh.​ ​ There was a very subtle sound of a slime 'vomiting' inside the shawl. ​ ​ Well, it wasn't exactly 'vomiting' in the human sense, per say. Rather, it was like water balloon that suddenly deflated, spraying fluid substance everywhere. Fortunately, Okarin was 99% water, so it probably did not smell bad, but it was certainly wet and made a mess. ​ ​ The entire process reduced Okarin's total volume by more than 50%, so now they were the same size as any ordinary slime that might be found on the streets.​ Okarin | 185 words

@GM Is it okay to have shorter posts for dialogue? Since we need a back and forth for dialogue, it'll be hard to do longer unless we can control the other's character.

I'm pretty flexible! What if we just reduced the word count to like 50 words?

I'd like to avoid one-liners (even for dialogue), since that feels better suited for the tavern, but I can understand wanting to move quickly!

Are Waterfalls Dangerous? (CLOSED / @ohko @Silver)

Waterfall! Waterfall! Okarin was excited about this trip! It had been a long time since they had last seen a waterfall.

The slimeperson met up with Cassel so they could begin their trip south.

"Have you ever been to a waterfall before?" The asked. "I wonder how big the one here is!"

Okarin was impatient to get walking!

Are Waterfalls Dangerous? (2) (CLOSED / @ohko @Silver)

"No, not yet, though from the way you are talking I suppose you haven't seen one yet either Okarin?"

Weirdly enough a little of Okarin energy might spread to him. As he caught himself smiling at the fact this might be the first time he got out of the city for many days.

"Well, not in this world!" Okarin responded with a slight bounce. "Back in my world, there were lots of waterfalls! There was water everywhere! We grew up swimming basically!"

The slimeperson subconsciously set a somewhat brisk pace without realizing it. They spun backwards and continued to chatter while walking backwards.

"You see, as a kid we used to slide down the waterfalls! It was super fun! Like — can you imagine thousands of baby slimes screaming with joy as they fly over the edge? It's like the best rollercoaster ever!!"

A random question suddenly occurred to Okarin.

"Oh wait, can you swim, Cassel?"

Following the slimeperson's pace, Cassel wandered along side him...her...it. Errr it seems like he would be like he need to brush up on his friends file after this.

Listening to his friend's explanation of his world. He didn't know what do but he tried to keep a straight face, he didn't know what a rollercoaster was or how thousands of babies flying off the edge was 'fun'. But, it would awkward to judge his friend by his standards afterall nobles in his world had their strange habits so can otherworldly slime who can talk can have their.

Well he managed to keep his poker face well enough though most of the walk until Okarin said "Oh wait, can you swim, Cassel?"

"Wait, do I have to swim?!"

Are Waterfalls Dangerous? (CLOSED / @ohko @Silver)

Okarin tilted their head at Cassel's questionable responsible. However, they shrugged and happily walked over to the river bank.

"Well! It's fine if you can't swim! There are easy countermeasures for this! It's no biggie! We can't let ourselves be defeated by such a small obstacle!"

Okarin tentatively dipped their bare feet into the water to test the temperature. It was cold, but nothing too extreme.

Yup, this would work perfectly~

They slowly lowered themselves into the water until they were waist deep. At that point, they started transforming... slowly stretching out their torso... flattening it... The feat required a little bit of concentration, but something as simple as this was no issue at all.

Ta - da!

A few moments later, Okarin had transformed into a small boat. Their torso jutted out from bow of the boat (much like a mermaid figurehead on a ship), but the rest of them became the body of the boat. It was quite sturdy and buoyant, as Okarin had hardened their surface so it was stiff enough to stand or sit on. They had even camouflaged their skin color so it looked like wood from a distance... although it seemed to have an unnaturally odd shiny texture from up close.

"Are you coming? You should get on! Let's go!"
