Now here is an example of all that I explained.
Madame Giry
OOC: I’ll be on later tonight to post more. BIC:
Madame Giry gently pushed her graying brown hair behind her ear. Looking at her reflection in the large wooden mirror, she picked up her brush and began tying it back into a bun. She was waiting for her daughter, Meg, to meet her. Where is that girl?
After finishing, she stood and began pacing the room. They had agreed to meet more than 15 minutes ago. We decided upon 4:00! Madame Giry glanced around the room, making sure everything was in place. Her bed was made, the things on her dresser were placed perfectly, and there was nothing on the floor. Finally, she heard a knock on the door. "Who is it?"
"It's me mother, Meg." Madame Giry rushed toward the door and swiftly opened it revealing the flushed face of her daughter. She wore her ballet outfit and her hair was up in a bun, jast and Madame Giry's was.
[Meg Giry] "Where have you been child? I've been waiting!" She motioned for Meg to enter and pointed to one of the plush chairs near the door. madame Giry then sat opposite and began wringing her hands together. "Why are you so late?"
Thanks to The Phantom's Opera for much of this information.
- At the top of each post, you must write your Characters name in bold: [*b]Madame Giry[/b*] (Make sure to take out the *'s!) = Madame Giry
- All RPing is written in 3rd person and past tense except when your character is talking to another.
- To denote the talking of your character, use quotation marks: "Where did you go?"
- When quoting what a character has said, take there quote and bold it: "I was hiding behind the curtain."
- If you wish to speak directly at someone's character you may, but don't have to, use [] with the characters name in them before your talking.
- All of your RPing should be posted in paragraph format, like a book.
- You may never post another characters actions other than your own. You may post actions the other characters have done in the past but not future ones.
- When posting a thought by your character, use italics: [*i]How could I be so stupid?[/i*] (Make sure to take out the *'s!) = How could I be so stupid?
- If you need to post 'Out of Character', or OOC, do this:
OOC: I have to eat dinner. See you in a little bit. BIC:
Always write BIC: after you are done speaking OOC. (BIC= Back in Character)
