Important Information

• This is a two week Casual Event! It will begin June 15th and end June 30th.
  
• Sign ups will last until June 14th!
  
• By signing up, you will be temporarily adopting a character to use for this event only! After the event, these characters will be available for adoption through the Reserved Adoption Center, and you will need to go through the adoption process before you can use the character outside of this event.
  
• An activity rule will be in place. You will need to post every 72 hours, as we want to keep the story moving along so we can reach the end by the 30th! If you are unable to keep up your activity level, your character will become incapacitated and unable to participate in the event any further. There will be a prize at the end of this event for anyone still active!
  

To make it more fun (and sneaky!) this event's character roster will be a secret!   When you sign up, you will choose a number and the senshi behind that number will be yours to use for the event! As the day for the RP to begin approaches, I will PM you your chosen profile! This is so you won't know anything about the characters around you in Naida Beach (with a small exception for siblings), and will have to learn more about the characters through the RP! So pay attention to everything!

As the senshi get introduced in the RP, I'll post their senshi fukus in the first post so that they can be used for quick reference, but everything else will remain a secret until the end of the event! Or until the player of that character reveals it in their RP posts!

This is a super interesting idea! I'm going to claim number 3 xD

Yay! I finished my first RP! Omg this was so fun Verdi!!

i had too much fun in this...lets do another one sometime

This was fun! I'm sorry that circumstances made it so that I couldn't really participate right at the end. I felt it was a bit fast pace but at the same time its a two week event so I'm not really sure how you can drag out a story and get it finished by the end of the event time period. Anyway, it was really fun and a good way to just jump into RPing. I look forward to more events.

Thank you for hosting this event~! It was fun! I thought the pacing seemed fine—perhaps a slight improvement would be to get into the "action" a bit quicker? Also, maybe tasks that require interaction with other characters would get things mixed up a bit more. I know I am super guilty of this in my own posts, but it was very easy to write for just your character in a vacuum... which isn't quiiiiite the point of RPing. ;D

I had fun despite not being able to do anything the last two rounds due to being busy @_@.

I wanted to quote Aurae because my experience was very different as a newbie (I know it's hard to please everyone!). I actually felt the pacing was too fast? I barely had one conversation before we were senshi and fighting and I had trouble keeping up with the rounds. I wanted to be my civilian character a bit more but there wasn't much time (but I can totally see other people thinking that's boring!). People also posted super huge walls of text that discouraged me from participating because I had to read it all to be sure nobody interacted with me/to understand what was happening around me and just when I'd finish, someone else would post a giant wall of text and I wouldn't have time to read it all before poof, the next round was up and I'd missed my chance. This could just be an issue with me though and not the RP, lol! I also liked that there weren't forced interactions because it was difficult enough for me to keep up with this being my first RP. I always notice I have issues tracking where the characters are/who they're speaking to, etc. so I was grateful that I didn't have to do too much interacting with others on my first try. One really great thing that came out of this for me was that I learned I'll probably enjoy one-on-one RPs best that I can do at my own pace (I think these are casual RPs?), so it was a great chance to get my feet wet and learn what I like/dislike in an RP. Thanks so much for hosting it!

Thank you guys for your feedback!!! This was my first RP event hosted, so any and all feedback is very valuable to me so that I can adjust for future events!! I feel like the pacing was off too, and I apologize! I think I just tried to squeeze too much into a two-week event! I wanted to have more time for the girls to interact, but at the same time, I had other things that needed to happen before the end and well... xD I will be able to learn from this and hopefully have a better idea of how much can happen within an RP in this timelimit (especially with ones with whole new characters and such) So I hope you'll all be up for joining a Casual RP event in the future and hopefully I've not scared you off haha <3

Thank you all so much again <333

Maybe for a future event, you could have one thats more about character interaction, like everyone going to a party kind of thing like last years Anniversary Casual RP Event Mercury hosted. And if you wanted something thats more action oriented, then it would be something that starts right in the action.

What i did like and i don't think I mentioned, was the adorable premade Senshi. THEY WERE CUTE and I did like how everyone's profiles and powers were mysterious to me. What could be even more entertaining for a future event, would be to withold what your senshi powers are until right at the time of transforming and then the player has to sort of fumble about figuring out what they do. Though I imagine this would be more work on the host so I would think the event would need fewer players to make it not so chaotic. xD

I agree with the others that the pacing was a bit too fast, but I found that it pushed me to finish the RP rather than find myself being lost.

I did also see that when writing I tend to write walls of text. This is a big problem since I tend to have so much imagery I want to incorporate that it tends to just burst out. At the same time, I had problems with my word choice and making the scenes just right. So there were times where I found myself in a writers block. Im glad that Jupiter mentioned the word count and the experience of being in a role play. Its not simply about you writing, its about the other characters as well. Gotta make the experience good for everyone, right? So I'l keep that in mind the next time I join an RP.
