What TGP is aiming to do is create the necessary foundation for a flourishing RP Region. Interested in seeing how a region like Pardes and Sondria had its roots? TGP aims to provide the basics on how that can be done.
The program will take about one month, involve the assistance of several Mentors, a few mods, and will be aimed at newer players who want to figure out how to start an RPing region from scratch.
We’ll be going through:
- Region naming and construction
- Closed versus Open region communities
- How to take advantage of offsite communication, such as IRC channels and offsite forums
- How to create a working map as well as the politics behind it
- How to get players together on the map, how to reconcile potential conflicts, and what sort of issues they may be facing
- How to start regional RPs, how to keep them going, and what to do when problems arise
- Lastly, dealing with outside applicants, how to gauge and consider interested members to the region, and accept or reject interested players
The entire program will be lengthy and intensive, require a lot of talking and planning, and will lead to a pretty simple end product: a fully functioning RP region with everything it needs to be able to start RPing right out of the gate with its own flavour of politics, grand strategies, and allegiances.
New players who want to learn about region construction will be working closely with Mentors as well as myself and Euroslavia in problem solving, setting up foundations, and how to transmit those skills into their very own RPing regions.
I’m not going to lie – it’s going to be a pretty lengthy program and it’s going to be equal parts unpleasant and exciting. However, my goal is that when you leave from this program, you know what to do and how to do it if you ever decide to go about starting up an RPing region in the future (something we highly encourage!).
If you’re interested, please express your interest in the thread, as well feel free to provide questions that you would like myself, Euro, or the Mentors to address. We can’t guarantee anything, but we’ll try our best.
I am a new play I know how to Role Play vaguely but I can role play i am just new to the game in general
