There are a lot of open canon characters in [Advanced] Hotline Tokyo (OOC thread). A non-Sailor Moon game that is actively recruiting is [Multiverse][Relaxed] The Galactic Adventures of Space Lord Frieza and the Alien Bastet in Space (OOC thread). I recommend that if you had something else in mind, you start a thread in the OOC forum to gauge interest! |

I would like to add that although "The Galactic Adventures of Space Lord Frieza and the Alien Bastet in Space" is a non-Sailor Moon storyline, characters from or inspired by Sailor Moon can still participate! Also, if you are not ready to commit to a full-time RP or you do not have a lot of free time at the moment, "Space" has received special permission from RP admin Sailor Uranus to allow players to join as short-term NPCs instead. More information about this feature is detailed here in the first post of the OOC Thread. |

| A meek being who just took this tour, of about mid-teenage age and British heritage, briefly stares back, clearly nervous and slightly overwhelmed. After a moment of silence, he works up the courage to speak.
Uum, i've never actually roleplayed before, although I'm wanting to give it a go at some point. I'm indecisive on where to actually go, and I'm not exactly confident in my abilities to RP at the moment, is there anywhere in this place where newbies like my can attempt some RP, hopefully with crossover RPs sinc i'm still watching Sailor Moon for the first time.
As he awaits a response, he never seems to make direct eye contact, perhaps because it makes him nervous to do so. |

| Welcome!
Perfect place to start getting your feet wet is the Open Play Boards. No profile is required and all the scenes are plotless and completely random, so it's a good place to focus on descriptions and personality without worrying about slowing the story down or anything. Appearances can be deceiving in there - there are a lot of threads and it looks like they haven't been used for a while, but it's because people can come and go whenever; make a post just replying to the first post in the thread and either the room host, another rp staffer, or random other players will respond! |

| Hey there! Welcome to the RP section!! If you take another look at Sailor Uranus's reply, she actually linked you to the specific section! (it's found when you click The RPG Forums, as the Open Play boards sit in there amongst the sub-forums such as Tokyo City and the like). If you'd like something a little more specific, you could check out this link to a moody bar perfect for a drink and some conversation. Or this link that will bring your character to a cozy little coffee shop! Also, a great way to dive in is to join the Casual Events, since they also require no profile and have no posting restrictions, and it's fun to play through a sequence together from start to finish! There's no open Casual Event just yet but keep an eye out! We've got them coming and going all the time <3 there may even be sign ups being posted for the next one soon-ish hehe I hope you have fun with us here! If you ever have any questions, don't hesitate to message one of our wonderful staff members <3 <3 |

| A week-late reply, but what the hey. Both threads you mentioned seem like a good idea, but it seems to require an OC of some description, and I have even less confidence in rping as characters that don't align with my personality, and it feels wrong to me to create what is essentially a self-insert. Plus, they don't seem to be very active. |

| Activity breeds more activity! But, in that case, there are several things you can do instead! =)
You could check out the OOC Boards. Some of them are not looking for new players, but some are still in the planning stages! Since you were less inclined to play something themed around Sailor Moon, here's a quick link for our Multiverse OOC Boards, which function in the exact same way but are meant for non-Sailor Moon centered stories.
Have an idea of your own? Make an OOC thread to get the conversation started and find others who may be interested. It doesn't have to be a full-fleshed out idea, just a random thought of "I want to play this kind of RP" would be a great beginning.
Alternatively, jump into the Brainstorm Thread for a no-hassle way to get to talking with other roleplayers! |

| Hey, I'm already in the coffee shop OC play, but is there any actual stories I could join? The OC play is a good idea for getting my proverbial feet wet, but it isn't much for development since, y'know, once a character exits, they forget what just happened? Any suggestions for proper stories? |

| Hello, I am Stardustcrusader. As you may have guessed, my favorite anime is Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. I am really excited for the Golden Wind Arc anime coming in October. I saw an ad for this forum on Instagram and decided to check it out. I have done some RP's on anime forums before casually and I am excited to get back into it. Looking forward to meeting you all. I have a character that I want to get approved so I can jump into an RP soon. |

| Okay, I posted here last year and got so freaked out be the sheer scale of the rules and the process that I fled. I'm reposting here because this time I actually want to get a start in casual RP before I build things like profiles for proper RP later on. |

| ^^' yeah, I wrote the rules out in longform to be thorough and address questions before they even needed to be asked, separated and linked to specific posts within itself to make referencing processes and procedures easy, but if that freaks you out, you've always got the Roleplay F.A.Q. and its quick start guides as the tldr version xD
Starting out with a Casual Event is a good idea! Watch out for RTRP's, too! |

| Awh, I’m so glad you decided to give this section another shot! I did the same thing you’re doing when I started out, and starting with a Casual Event really helped me find my feet and learn the ropes! Feel free to PM me if you have any questions or need some help! |

| I hope you'll stick with us! <3 It might seem like a lot at first, but once you get through the process the first time, it becomes much much easier! Never worry about asking questions, we're all here to help xD <3 Also, I'll be hosting another Casual Event beginning sometime in early-to-mid August, so I hope to see you there! |

| It's fine Uranus. xD I get it really. It can just be a bit confusing that's all. In any event when I need it I'll ask for all the help I can get. Thanks for the support everyone, Anda invited me to a casual RP and I'll try out an NPC for the time being but I'll definitely go for one of your RPs Saturn. |
