Hey everyone,

I used to be part of a roleplay group on instagram a very long time ago and decided to see if people still did that kind of thing when I stumbled upon this website. It sounded pretty neat, so here I am! Nice to meet you all!

I'm posting this as the very first thing I do in hopes of making some new friends to show me the ropes, because I honestly have no idea what's going on :') please treat me well!

- Hookey

P.s. If someone could start by telling me about what this 'Include a dice roll with this post' under the text box business is that would be swell <3
Hello and welcome! And, anyone is free to correct me, the dice roll thing is to create a dice that generates a random number line throwing a dice for DnD. At least that how I see it. But I'm sure you'll find plenty of people to rp with as everyone I've encountered I'd super friendly!

I've never actually played DnD before, so perhaps I'd better steer clear of that mechanic for now or I might end up confusing myself even more haha. It's great to meet you, and thanks for welcoming me! I'm looking forward to getting back into rp - and hopefully I won't be writing as horribly as my younger self, I still cringe thinking back on it.
Hey Hookey! Welcome to RPR. Hope you’re settling into the site okay. If you have questions, feel free to ask. There are a ton of friendly people around to help.

Cheers to having a lot of fun RPs and games and making new friends. :)
Welcome Hookey!

The dice roll is completely optional. :) Some folks like to use it to add some randomness to their games (myself included!) But many ignore it completely, which is totally fine as well!

Hello and welcome! Have fun writing here; I don't use the dice in games but I've thought about it....seems like it might help add some intrigue and chaos 😏😏😏
Welcome! Hope you make lots of friends and enjoy your time here <3
Oh, hey there Hookey and welcome, welcome! It's great to see new people here and I actually didn't know Instagram had RP groups. Woah. If I had an IG account, I'd check that out.

Anyway, as they already told you, the dice is just a random toy here you can use in your RP stories actually! Like I'm in an RP right now and when we get to a part where we need help thinking which direction to take our plot, we'd roll the dice. Example:

There was a crash that echoed in the empty house despite the fact that all of them were accounted for and present in the room. One of them decided to investigate and left the group.
These are what the fates wrote:
What will they see? Roll Dice!

1: An old shelf broke.
2: It was a stray animal.
3: A stranger in the house.
4: The dark entity had come.

See? It brings a whole lot of fun in your stories!

rolled 1d4 and got 4
And the culprit is....

Hi Somnom,

I think I'm settling in okay. The help forum has indeed been very helpful to read.
Thanks for the welcome, I'm excited to be here :D

Ah okay, that's a relief I did some reading up on DnD after someone else mentioned it and it seems a bit complicated :') hopefully it won't take too long for me to get the hang of everything.

Hello Vanderhuge,

I didn't know about the instagram groups either until I was introduced by a friend. Of course, it was when we were all kids and it was a bit of a hot mess - I'm not even sure if the community still exists.

Thank you so much for this very comprehensive guide and the warm welcome!
