Hi! I'm new ~

[gentlewood]

Hello! I’m gentlewood. Pleased to meet you all ~

I used to roleplay a ton back in middle school, but as my friend group got older, everyone moved on from the “cringe” hobby, and I ended up writing solo for years. Frankly? I don’t think it's cringe at all. I still miss the joy of collaborative storytelling and worldbuilding. There’s something so magical about building a fictional world you can escape to with someone else that just…can’t be beaten, in my opinion. Plus I’ve grown mighty tired of keeping all this creative energy to myself—soooo here I am! Finally coming out of my hibernation hole.

That being said, this is my first forum roleplay experience! So if you have any tips or guidance, please throw them my way! Literally any tips will do, I have zero clue where to begin lol. So far I have enjoyed toying with all the customization features that are now available to my finger tips (took me like an hour to finish this introduction because i got distracted by all the buttons, no joke). I am also a nervous wreck, so please be kind and patient with me while I figure things out!

Okay that's enough rambling from me. I can’t wait to write with you guys!!

Hello! I am TheGreenestBean but people call me Bean! (because I tell them to call me bean XD) Uhm, some tips I have is;
1.) You don't always have to write an entire paragraph, if taking it easy is your thing? Just give us a few sentences and we will call it a roleplay! (get it? Roleplay instead of day? I'm terrible at jokes )

2.) Have simple cat descriptions when entering a cat form, so they don't get denied! AND TRUST ME, I know from experience lol ( Desc. Ex. 'A sleek white tom with deep blue eyes')

3.) Be creative! Be original! You can create your own clan, tribe, you name it! Also be a little flavorful with the names and looks of your cats and clans, nobody likes a boring white tabby! (my bad QuietStep..)

and last but not least..

4.) FOLLOW WCO'S GUIDELINES AND RULES AND STUFF, BE KIND! MAKE FRIENDS AND HAVE FUNNNNN!!! Nobody likes a Meanie McGrumpy-pants! * also my apologies for all the caps, I'm rather gooberous at times*

I would love to roleplay sometime, you can probably ask me questions about how things or buttons on the website work (probably not going to have an answer) But I can totally answer roleplaying questions!, I love your pfp and have a good day!

-TGB, your (hopefully possibly) new best friend or just a silly tism guy with way to much energy :3

[CanukiTanuki_Fox]

yeah i'm the one person who often writes entire paragraphs for rps lol

Hi there @gentlewood! I'm Streamtail, but everyone calls me Stream or Streamy!

Welcome to the site!! I hope you have a lot of fun here, as everyone is very friendly and sweet, if you have any questions feel free to ask me!! It's my fourth year here so I'm pretty much a pro lol. I love your username btw!

Also, once you have characters, if you'd like to see them brought to life, you can request art of them! Usually you can do so with the game's currency (kk) which you should be able to locate in the top right of your screen! The amount will increase with the more you write, and you can use it to get art or purchase purrks. Purrks can be used to help your characters to come back from being missing without having to roleplay their return or even have your queen have a bigger litter! They can be quite helpful and fun to play around with! If you'd like, I could give you some art of your characters for free if you reach out!
