- The RP section had gotten very quiet, but Sailor Jupiter perked up activity in mid-March! She suggested the creation of a Storyline, worked diligently to submit her own character profiles, and hopped right into posting! Plus, she's the creator of the amazing RP headers being used for "Old Setsuna" and "Plu-to Meiou"—if you haven't had a moment to appreciate them, I recommend that you take a look in the "That's No Moon" thread to check them out! Since then, she's kept up activity in that thread and joined the April Casual Event! (Where we are adoring her clever writing for Naru's accent.)
Due to her marvelous surge of activity, AMAZING RP HEADERS, and wonderful sense of humor in her posts... Sailor Jupiter is an excellent choice for RPer of the Month! Quick Facts about Sailor Jupiter, The Roleplayer! ![[March] RPer of the Month - Sailor Jupiter! 1333987389](/users/2914/10/33/88/smiles/1333987389.png) Sailor Jupiter was RPer of the Month in June of 2016! We interviewed her then, too! Sailor Jupiter submitted a very interesting profile for a Civilian Haruka Tenoh! Hmm, what sort of RP could be in store for a character like that? Sailor Jupiter hosted last summer's MURDER MYSTERY Murder at the Ravenwood Masquerade Ball, and played Drew Golden! Sailor Jupiter's amazing Star Wars Crossover Roleplay, That's No Moon! is April's Featured Roleplay! List of Accepted Characters: Not Listed in one place! List of Storylines: Not listed in one place! When Sailor Jupiter was interviewed by Sailor Neptune, she had this to say! - Sailor Neptune wrote:
- What is your favorite thing about RPing? Why is it something you love to do?
I'm really enjoying it in terms of being a writing challenge. How many ways can I said "she said" without using those words? These are the kinds of corners I'd run into if I ever started writing a book as I'd someday like to do, and this is good practice. Plus, it's fun to try to get into a character's head and imagine how they would react to something.
What types of stories do you love best? Any specific genre?
I love to read mystery novels, but I think for RP I might like comedy or action best - which surprises me. It's the moments where I get to reveal something in an interesting or laughable way that I'm really enjoying. ^^
What gets you in an RPing mood? How do you handle writer's block?
I just don't post. That's probably the worst answer, but it's the truth, heh. If I post something forced, it's going to be "meh" and I never want it to be "meh"!
What gets you the most excited about a storyline? The idea? The people involved? What X factor makes you think, "Ooh! I have to be a part of this?"
The idea + the people. I was so excited to do That's No Moon with Sailor Mercury both because Sailor Moon + Star Wars is a sandwich of my two favorite things, and because I've read her RP's before and I think she does a really stellar job with word choice
Do you prefer roleplaying as a character that is most like you or least like you?
Oof, this is kind of hard since I don't have much experience yet. Setsuna/Obi Wan is very not like me (I think I'm probably more of a Minako) but I've really enjoyed having to rework things to suit her persona. Whereas I might jump up or yell excitedly, she's more likely to sit calmly and talk coolly. It's fun to bend my brain into writing differently, though I do suffer from serious imposter syndrome! I always worry I'm not doing her character justice. The fact that it's a crossover and there's an established Star Wars script gives me a lot of guidance and wiggle room.
Fondest memory/most memorable moment in your entire RPing history?
I'm really, really enjoying being a sneaky old lady. This droid? Never seen it before. Usagi's mom? Definitely not Darth Selene. I like the little mental asides that the reader is privy to, but not the other characters. I think as a reader it's fun to be in on something, and I've enjoyed flourishing my metaphorical cape for those little reveals.
Are you looking for more storylines? Can members approach you to start a roleplay with you, and if so, what methods do you prefer? (i.e. Discord/PM, should they have an idea first or can they just walk up to you and say "Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy, but RP with me maybe?"
DM or PM works! Right now I'm in 2 RPs and I have another coming down the pipeline. I'm no Sailor Neptune so I think maybe actively participating in 2 is my max, but I'm happy to be conscripted for future interesting ideas.
Do you prefer Casual or Advanced roleplays? Why?
I have only done casuals so far, so I can't say!
Canon or crossover or multiverse? Why?
Crossover and multiverse. I like to imagine what the characters would do when put in the RP blender with other universes and characters. That said, I think it can also be really fun to play a canon character - I'm really looking forward to my steamy HaruMichi RP with Yunie for exactly this reason! Haruka is so cool and I get to be her? AWESOME.
Any RP ideas you have always wanted to do but for various reasons haven't done?
I am really interested in doing a Sherlock Holmes & Watson where Usagi is Sherlock and Ami is Watson. I'll probably be picky about who I end up doing this with though. I'd really want a good Ami as the straight man character that Usagi could bounce her ridiculousness off of.
Do you have any tips/tricks for people who might want to start RPing but are intimidated because they don't feel their writing isn't good enough or don't know where to start?
Be like Nike and Just Do ItTM But seriously, even if you were the worst RPer imaginable, there's probably someone in the RP section already who's on your level. Staff can probably match you guys up so you can work on progressing together. Read over the work of RPers you admire and ask yourself questions about how they present information. Another good way is the Casual RPs. I was definitely caught in the RP net via these. There's a really low barrier to entry - no profiles, approvals or word counts required, so it's easy to start. Plus, if you goof up, there are usually enough other players that someone will cleverly swoop in and save the day.
Other comments/suggestions for the GC RP section?
I honestly can't think of anything you guys aren't doing absolutely right. Thanks for all the hard work you put in, it really shows. Do you have any questions for Sailor Jupiter our Featured Roleplayer of March? Ask her here!  |

Honestly... idk yet! My hardcore RP is coming up as Yunie is finishing up classes at the moment. Making the profile was Intense with a capital I. It took me several hours over a few days, and it's only a civilian profile! I asked a lot of questions. A lot. But! I think it's good that it takes so long. I'm going to have to write some lengthy posts so I need to be comfortable with information about that character and how they would interact based on their history and personality traits and the long format gave me a good base for that future writing. In a way, it was a lot like building a good Dungeons & Dragons character! |

I've vaguely started blocking things out in some notes in my phone but I know I don't have the time for it right now so it's just cooking in my head at the time being XD |

This is a question I've had for a fairly long time-how did you come up with the mystery masquerade RP event? There was so many intricate things sent out to make sure we were in character and everything. |

There was so many intricate things sent out to make sure we were in character and everything. Hah, I wish I could take credit for that, but it was actually from a party I went to. My friend had bought a Murder Mystery Masquerade party pack that had all of the characters and info and she was nice enough to share it with me so I could run it on GC. I'm still sad it was never finished. I didn't want to reveal much about the RP so I don't believe we decided to link to it at the time, but you can buy it (and a lot of other packs) here: http://mymysteryparty.com/ravenwood-masquerade-murder-mystery/ |
