Roleplaying Options

You may have noticed we no longer have a "book club" forum for RPGing anymore, I removed it because this forum as a whole isn't really set up for a proper RPG. It's not really as fun as it could be since you only have like two members participating. However, Marie (aka Akie, elder admin of Ranch Story) has a sister Harvest Moon forum, which is a full fledged RPG system and is better suited for the overall RPG experience. So I ask you all to stop by Ocean of Stars and check it out, dive in and have fun RPing! The link is in the Special category of these forums, or click here to visit..

EDIT: My apologies who's existing RP topics may have been cut short. =\ I hope you all understand, and see in the long run that it's better with more people and with an adequate RPG system.

Thanks!

Well, there is some bit of that aspect on OoS, what with the Goddess and possibility of a Witch & mermaid, but not actively. Sometimes magic RPs can get out of hand and too magical, whereas in HM, your main focus is farming and lovin' up on the human villagers. So, such is kind of the basis of OoS, I think.

And I dunno, I just think having access to the other part of the world opens up more diversity among characters--we can't all be English speaking people who grew up on the island! Plus the festivals held on the site are sometimes based off of magical occurrences, so there really isn't much of a lack of magic per say. So, in reality, it is kind of a fantasy world, like a mirrored version of our reality with a touch of fanciful whimsy to it.
