Guest |  How-To create really good territory descriptions and plots!
**DO NOT take this idea and say this your own, I worked really hard on this idea so please DO NOT take it**
If you want a role-play and you want lots of people to come then your going to want really good descriptions for your plots and territorys.
Okay, let's use my RP idea for example:
If you are to have a wolf pack, your going to want to describe how the pack got started, right?
Ariana was pregnant when Lucas left her for another female. Ariana was then left to survive on her own. She found an empty den and gave birth to 5 healthy pups. All 5 soon were grown up and Arianna grew old and tired. Her pups helped her throughout the years but on her 21st birthday, Ariana passed away. She left her daughter, Miranda, in charge of the pack. Miranda told her brothers and sister where the pack was to stay forever. Her brother, Samuel is also now the Beta male
this is how one of my packs started out. See, you have to give a deep description so people joining the pack or clan or group can understand how it got started. Now as in Territory:
Bad example:
Stealth Pack's territory is basic. It has trees and a stream running through it.
Good example:
Stealth Pack's territory is mostly trees but its got a stream running through it. Their basic food source in the stream is Salmon which also makes the Stealth pack close to the Grizzly bear territory. The stream rarely freezes during winter and if it does, then just one touch with one paw will break the ice. So Stealth pack has a good source of Fish during every season.
So as you can see, you need to have a good territory layout so people know how to react when they are RPing in that territory.
Now let's go to Plots. Let's say you want to start a Wolf RP. Well, first things first, you need to have a plot. If it is just one animal, it will be pretty easy to plot because its like this:
Arianna was your normal Dog but her father was a wolf and her mother was a Husky. So she was part Husky Part Wolf.
Lucas was mostly wolf but had a hint of Samoyed in him. His father was pure wolf and his mother was part wolf but his mother also had some Samoyed. So he was 75% Wolf and 25% Samoyed.
The two had never met until Lucas passed the fence to Arianna's house. He was running away. Arainna quickly went to the fence to meet this handsome Dog like Wolf.
"Hello there"Lucas said"Run away with me, my dear."
"Oh, I'm flattered"Arianna said"But we barely know each other."
But Arianna resisted her mother's calls and ran away with Lucas. The two soon had pups and started Rain Pack together.
So when doing a 1 animal plot, explain how the first pack got started. And as you start to create the first pack, explain like how one of the pups ran away or one of the pups got captured by a poacher. Make the second pack exciting. Make your RP thrilling and daring.
I may not have owned a RP but I sure know a lot about it!
