My first RP,

Welcome to Eden, You have all been specially selected to live in the garden until we have decided to allow you to leave.

After being dumped into Eden, you were expecting it to be PERFECT. Think again. Survive and meet others who can help you.

Mission Start.

I've moved this to the Roleplay forum.

Also, if you're merely looking to check interest and aren't 100% on an idea, I highly recommend that you use the Recruitment Thread in the future rather than make a thread.

You should probably give out more details of what exactly you have in mind, after looking over what you've written I have no idea what this RP is about or what to expect.

The most basic advice I can give:

1) Have your framework for a plot, setting, etc. firmly established, first and foremost.

2) Write an intro. Most people usually do this in the form of a narrative. This is to introduce people to the thread.

3) Expound in detail upon things that will be important to players to understanding the thread, like the setting, the goals of the characters, what the gameplay will entail, etc. It is important to remember that detail is one of the resources players will draw upon when creating their characters.

4) If you're using any specific mechanics (dice-rolling, etc.) explain how they are going to be implemented, and of course provide a bio template so people can create their characters.

Browse some of the other threads in the Out of Character subforum to get a sense for what I mean. You'll see that most thread creators follow this general structure in that they provide as much pertinent information as possible.
