Happens to the best of us! Game should come secondary to RL obligations!

A quick question about "Roleplay: Banter": Should I look at it as some kind of ship-to-ship communication or "Witchspace Discord" ?

I've found Banter tends to be free of strict "alternate reality" limitations as long as ya keep it mostly in character.

I'm the one who came up with the RP: Banter idea. Think of it as like Space Twitter, or I guess a chat room for pilots. A place for pilot dialogue without all the RP prose that's expected of the other threads.

The idea came about because one of my characters ended up having a major spat (which was a lot of fun, by the way) with another in General, and I thought it'd be best to continue that spat elsewhere, thus I requested the Banter thread to keep the IC stuff separate.

Those two characters ended up being good friends further down the track.

I have posted the odd RP comment in these pages, but I am out in the black, on the Persues Expedition, at the moment and therefore cannot visit the places directly (RP!!!). Anything for off-world contact? Perhaps, RP: messages from the black?

Perhaps, RP as you are playing, & back&forth over your ship comms? Just an idea...

I posted an RP a few pages back, & didn't involve anyone else, but it laid the groundwork to include anyone else if they wish; on that note, Synthya's RP ties directly into her Bio.

As I promised another RPer here, I'll have to post a translation of that brief passage in her Bio where she spoke... coming ASAP, I promise! I always do a good bit of research when I write, for the sake of canon & even more, plausibility, but hey, that's me.

Or make up a new character who's not out in the middle of nowhere. Your RP character does not have to be tied to your in-game activities.

None of my RP characters were tied into my in-game antics.

^true that^, good point! Conceivably, one can RP in a text-box, regardless.

I am role-playing exactly the activities that will bring my character to become the explorer that currently is in-game.

That works.

In-game, I'm still the head of The Chapterhouse of Inquisition, member of Research (leadership) in ALD Power Play, and a member of the Imperial High Council.

In-RP, I was forced out of my high position due to my on-going disrespect of Patreus (he fights like a dairy farmer). Although I'm loyal to the Empire still (although shaken), my character is now a semi-renegade who is waging his own personal war with The Club. He's currently in Colonia with some fair-weather friends.
