Comment by j.sh 20 hours ago: hello bomjour ola, im pretty new here and have been thinking about starting a forum with "homemade quests"
basically this would be a place to create quests, more for role playing perpases than for any thing.

an example could be: Thief Quest, loot item A from Location B, Lockpick display case C from Location D, Attack Bandit Camp E and steal item F from location, Clean up looted equipment (upgrade on sharpener or workbench) and return to sell items to vender G.
there would be no in game reward, unless you wanted to use console i guess, it would be more for having fun, especially if youve already played through every vanilla ques and made multiple characters already

Death Angel the Stoner Wizard suggested that i ask about starting a threed in this group.
what do you think?

Comment by Michael the Greybeard Wizard yesterday: Ahh ok gotcha. I knew they were revamping and changing the group, just didnt know what they were doing. Which was i came here. i hadnt been in theRP group for a while so I wondered what had been going on. I hope they can get something going so the group doesn't die out or become nearly nonexistent.
Thanks RuneRed. :)

Comment by RuneRed yesterday: @ Michael, yes the Hardcore Post, Halls of the Dead (first two links) plus many others were deleted a couple of weeks back in a purge. The group is (was) going in a new direction, but I haven't seen anything since.

Comment by Michael the Greybeard Wizard yesterday: Was the Hardcore Mode post deleted? When cick the link it says the page can't be found...

Comment by William Perkins on May 2, 2013 at 22:40: I love playing merchant characters. Any suggestions for race, quests to do or otherwise?

Comment by Argonian Fangirl on April 28, 2013 at 17:59: Any and all aspects of roleplaying can be discussed here Auroness, if you have a question on how to roleplay feel free to ask it.

Comment by FXMorph on March 12, 2013 at 5:49: I smell spam... canned greasy glorious spam. ^^

Comment by FXMorph on February 27, 2013 at 16:51: The nice thing about RP is that you can just write in a backstory to why you have so much magic, or maybe why you prefer a Shield and Sword when you a mage type. Especially with Bretons... You can say your elven blood is what made drove you to study magic, but it was your human blood that drives you to be more physical... it's great for inner conflict ^^

Comment by Robert Brown on February 27, 2013 at 16:42: hey guys i made a warrior/warlock type of guy. I have One-Hand, Block Smithing, Heavy Armor, and the magic Conjuration, Illusion, Alternation, Restoration, Destruction. I was wondering is that too much magic or is it OK if it is I was thinking about dropping the destruction because i was a Brenton. I need honest opinions thanks guys

Comment by FXMorph on February 25, 2013 at 15:50: I think I'm going to not do the DiD Hardcore RP for a bit... i kinda miss playing the game. :P Any suggestions what will bring back the fun to Skyrim after DiD? Hmmm, maybe I should try some of the Character Builds.
