forum Theoretically, I know how to roleplay...

But in practice, I absolutely don't. Can anyone help? 🤔

hmmmMMmmmmm I think I can be in service. .D.

Hell yeah! Do you have any plots? I have, like, one but I don't think it's that great considering I don't exactly know the prerequisites for RP plots for them to work. I also want to start simple.

um

yes I have plots but like they're very Demon-oriented. I think they're pretty simple if I leave out the lore and stuff I added in.

What kind of lore is it? I'm already pretty interested in demons and the plot I have no problem with. Depends, though.

Well it's about to get 1000000000000% more confusing but I'll do my best. Feel free to ask questions.

SO bascially my boi is a Contract Demon, who is stuck in the human world. And Demons live in Hell, right? Well, no, wrong. They live in basically this halfway point between Angels and something much worse than Demons (those aren't important though). If you want a romance RP, your (preferably) angsty Human character will come along and fall in love with him.
But falling in love with a Demon is completely different. They have mates, not lovers. Once a Demon 'Marks' another Demon or Human, that person is their mate. And if that Demon (who Marked their mate) is a Contract Demon, they are allowed to go back home, to their halfway point or "Hell", which we will call it for now until I can remember the name.

(Good god okay I'll just leave then-)

Oh, I guess it is a bit confusing. So do the demons live in purgatory? And does contract entail the mate concept, serving humans like in Faust, or both?

I think I'll pass for the time being. Thank you for the offer though.

Yeah it is, I'm not really the best at explaining things.

I guess? I kind of think of it as like, a really socialist/Communist place, like what would happen if it worked. I always also thought of Heaven as if Capitalism. So like, it's basically its own thing, I'm just trying to put it a bit simpler.

And the Contract Demon would basically be able to retire. It's kind of like an army thing, but you have to go and serve Humans.

To be honest I think it'd be better to stick to the basic outline of heaven and hell. Don't get me wrong, your idea has a lot of potential, but it's still a bit too convoluted for me to understand and harder to elaborate on if we're roleplaying.

Okay! That's totally fine. I'll just change the view of Hell a little, if that's okay? Otherwise, do you think you'll like to do it?

I think it's fine. Do you think I can utilize some goetic elements? Like with the rankings and such? They don't have to mean anything.

Ummmm I guess? Contract Demons are at the absolute bottom. But I just wanted to remind you that I am the Contract Demon.

Alright. I'm gonna make a human character but they're possessed or something, I dunno. Probably by some out of touch demon. Is that fine?

Sure! I don't want to limit you or anything, I'm sorry. It's your RP, I shouldn't be so controlling. Sorry love. Do you want to use a template or just jump in?

No, it's fine, you weren't being controlling at all. I think I'll do a template. I want to be able to have a basic idea of what my character is going to be. Also, I don't think we'll get too far, I have to get ready for bed soon.

Oh okay. Do you want an extra long template or just a short n' sweet one? Alrighty, that's okay. I understand it's absurdly late.

I think I'll stick to the one provided by the site. I'd say it's a pretty "early" time, I don't have much of a good relationship with sleep.

Oh alright! I have a page with my boi, thankfully. Oof. Maybe grab some sleep.

I tried my hand at making my human character and the demon possessing them. I was planning to make a section explaining their relationship but I already took a while making them. For the time being I'll just say they're co-dependent on each other. Feel free to ask questions.

trainwreck human

and their even worse demon friend

Sorry I took so long with this dsfjfhdsj

OH sweet! I love them!

thanks for reminding me to make a new profile for RP demon boi, I realize his profile is sorely outdated lmao. Hold on.

Thank you! I can't wait to see your demon. Or maybe I can, take as much time as you need to update him.
