Role-playing is like a movie, how a movie flows and goes through the motions, is how your posts should be like. To make your posts long talk about the environment, things around them and the weather, talk about what your character is thinking, if anything in older threads happened, bring that up. Also talk about the their physical state, but keep it realistic, we don't need an entire post/thread on a complete summary of what happened to your cat's father or mother, or how she is entirely depressed and what-not.Be One with the Environment
the basics of the environment
To start, the environment. This is like the physical aspect, but different. Environment is a key to role-playing especially Warriors. The weather is something you can write a good paragraph about, so thats 100 words right there. Secondly, you can write about whats around the cat. Like the forest, or the camp site. Be creative and don't be afraid to describe something.Hey, You! Give me what you've got!
To the physical appearance of things
Physical could be where your character is going, or what he is doing like hunting awhile environmental is when you talk about things around him, like the forest, or even the weather. Talking about the weather boosts up word count and also gives the reader a better view on what time of day it is and how to react to your post. For say if it's cold and snowing, or warm and sunny, your reader needs to react on what you say, and by adding in description to the weather will help them out a lot.Penny for your thoughts!
mentally, how is your cat's reaction to various events?
The one thing about a mental post, is that theres nothing to go off on. So when role-playing, it is best to use all aspects to their greatest. This said, mental does need to be included, I mean, how far can you get with just minor details about the background? You should, no, must incorporated this also in your post, or your post will have absolutely no point. Mental state of mind means what is your character thinking of. If things in past threads happened that your character is thinking off, write about it. Its interesting for the reader, and also lets the reader get a better understanding of who your character is. Say your character was evil, talk about things like how much he wants to kill, or he wants the taste of blood. If your character is a sweet heart, maybe explain to the reader that your cat wants to help out everyone in the world. There are endless possibilities that could be added, but the best way to role-play is when you add in the three aspects.
So when you role-play, the best thing is to add Mental, Physical and Environmental aspects in your post, and you'll be a amazing role-player in no time.
