Roleplay tip: Ask for someone's permission when you want to kill them. If they say no, then don't cry about it. If they say yes, then you have every right to kill them.
How to annoy someone who's like any of theese: Just say, 'I blocked ur attack'. If they say 'no u cant' just say 'i can do what I want you soggy bread peace'.
My definition of a Mary Sue is someone either overly OP or someone where the world around them bends to their needs. OP-ness doesn't make someone automatically a Mary Sue. Darkstalker was the most powerful dragon, but he was able to be defeated. The world bends to the Mary Sue by giving them unexplained abilities and powers. If a Mary Sue has no experience in fixing ships, she shouldn't be able to repair a steam ship better than someone who's job is to work on ships. She shouldn't be able to suddenly develop amazing fighting skills and beat a highly trained enemy, if she has little to no actual training. Thank you for coming to my Mary Sue ted talk :3
Well, I’m darkstalkers case I think that he was defeated by his stupidity/arrogance. The only thing that I’m confused about is how kinkajou was able to duplicate animus magic
My best tips: Always keep your OC's to a limit. If they are good at one thing, say fighting, say they aren't very witty or fast, as for muscle for a bulky dragon can slow it's movements down. During all times of a roleplay, take turns. (This avoids people with fast typing skills to have a huge advantage in fights and complex interactions that requite a lot of back-and-forth wordplay. This makes it so that you both get an advantage, in fact, as for you can both get to think about what you want to say before you do.) Say you say that your OC is fighting your friend's oc. You'll say, "-They slashed across the other dragon's snout.-" and the other person, for example, says "-They roared furiously, holding their snout and clawing the other dragon's stomach.-" You can take turns, and every other time something happens, it'll be your actions. For characters with manipulative powers, always have a weakness for it. Say you can dig yourself into other peoples minds, you can make it so they can block you out like any other voice. If you're not quite sure what's overpowered or not, try to compare it fighting a battle with one of your good characters (who aren't op or up), and try to estimate if the fight would be long or short. If your character kills them in a near instant, try to fix some of it. If the battle lasts a long time, then your character is probably perfect. (Also they should be friends so they don't have to fight :>)
Role playing can be scary at first, but just test it out with a genre you like! It’s weird at first and sometimes you can feel scared by it, but the fun and reward of having a good role play is quite rewarding! If you’re afraid to start alone, you can find people in game/in the lobbies that want to start up an rp. If you’re unsure how to start an rp, just check out chat, create an oc, and figure out how to do it as you go! I’ve rped for about 5-ish years now and I understand the feeling of being afraid but most people won’t actually shred you to bits for asking to rp with them, in fact, they’ll usually let you into their rp! If you do come across the toxics ones however, report them and be sure to block them if you can.
@@bottlecapjazz341 Yup! I would even say that servers of which you have to pay for are much better (less toxic and better role playing.) It’s been quite a while since I’ve seen good role players that I’ve actually could enjoy myself with.
Me, being a fast typer: * USES TYPING SKILLS TO EAT AND COMPUTE * Other people with fast typing skills: *I'M ABOUT TO WRECK THIS PERSONS WHOLE ROLEPLAY*
The way I combat having Mary Sue characteristics: 1) very shy, scrawy, weak, hesitant, doesnt like using powers, flighty af, etc 2) weak firescales/animus powers (weaken the power) 3) be a statue.
dragon: *has a strong trait* what i immediately thought reading that last bit and now think you like to tell them: *"hee hoo gargoyle boi! HEE HOO! G A R G O Y L E ."*
Another thing to add on to Mary Sue: it’s okay to have powers such as animus, flamesilk, night’wing powers, or fire scales as long as you have a weakness that fits your character. Even Darkstalker had his own weaknesses and he was above powerful. Don’t play the main character in rp it’s very annoying
I usually just put firescales on my SkyWings so I can see without torches, so if it's not in the bio, they technically don't have it. I do this with my Sea Wings too, but just because all SeaWings are supposed to have wing patterns in the books.
I give my firescales characters weaknesses to put them don on the OP list, such as easily manipulated or unintelligent. But that’s a cool trick, it’s easier than firebreath everywhere!
I had an OP oc, like many. Half NightWing, quarter SkyWing, quarter SandWing. In short, had much, much weaker versions of the normal abilities. She could not breathe fire (which is weird because ALL THREE TRIBES BREATHE FIRE-) her scales were hot to touch, but would occasionally flare up (hence her name), burning anything within proximity. Had a barb but much, much weaker poison than a SandWing, possibly rivaling that of a black widow in terms of danger, rather than a Dragonbite viper. Was a prophet. She gained all of these due to being hatched at the exact moment a huge solar flare occurred. This is also why she has pale yellow-orange scales, despite being half NightWing and part SkyWing. Was deathly allergic to water. Touching water causes the touched scales go cold and huge nasty blisters form. Has one eye due to a fight near a river. Was dyslexic and not book smart, but was incredible in fighting, being untrusting and being able to spot anything that might assume the dragon a threat because her scales can't really burn anyone, they're as hot as a dark plastic bench in the summer noon (unless they flare).
@@sparkfrog777 Yeah, I dunno why either. I think it had to do with her flare-scales and the event we was hatched on? Or maybe she drank a glass of water one day, I dunno
I really don’t understand why people create characters that have firescales on only part of their body?? I’m pretty sure that’s not at all possible in the canon universe?? Also, firescales can be op in roleplays, that’s true. But judging by Peril, firescales are much more of a negative trait than a positive one. Basically, firescales are good for fighting and struggle with literally everything else, so if used properly they can definitely make good, balanced characters.
I play Warriors roleplay on ROBLOX, and there’s a huge unspoken rule. If you’re fighting, you must ask for permission to kill to other player. If they say no, you can’t. If a power player says they killed you, you may ignore them.
Role players should NEVER: *doges atteck every single time somebody attacks* Edit: HOLY COW 200 LIKES :OOO Edit:JSJSJSHSHSSOOAAOKAMSMAM Edit: ok so I’m getting a lot of comnents saying no,but what I mean is you can’t just say “dodges.” You need to come up with a way. 3/8/21 I literally quit the wings of fire community so pls don’t even bother responding.
"The easiest way to not be a Mary Sue is to not have any special abilities." The robux I paid for the 'Special Abilities!' gamepass: *_am I a joke to you_*
I was doing a Dod (dragonets of Destiny) role play, and they didn’t use the cave, they used their very small, tiny den. We all voted to go to the dod cave, but they kept whining about how it wasn’t as good, and interrupting saying “this cave sucks, my den is reallly much better”. One person wanted to join, and didn’t know what a role play was. The person said “it’s a game” the other person went “can I join?” “No, go away, we don’t want you”. LIKE JEEZ LADY CHILL THE HECK OUT THAT WAS PROBABLY A CHILD. The poor kid left right after and I just quit
Omg this happened today, I heard in chat a dod rp was going on and flew there, I said,"What's this???" And a person said "A game" and I was like,"Ummm yeah but what is the roleplay?" And then they ignored me. Like I just wanted to join
DANG!! Something like that happened to me too. They insisted on using their cave and they didn’t treat it like a DoD rp and more like a family rp and it was very strange I left
I’m a speedy typer! Lol. I’m really fast when I get super mad or excited. If u ever meet me in rp, and make me mad, ur not gonna get a chance to respond. If we rp fighting, I wait for ze other player. To bad no one rips with me D:
Once I met a god modder in Sundown Island who was apparently a ‘vampire’, me and someone were chatting OOC and some entirely black wolf walked up to the person I was talking to and said: *bites neck* *drinks blood* *she dies instantly* , he legit controlled her character by saying she died instantly. Some people could probably survive getting bitten and some blood taken
Oof, i had met another as well. I was roleplaying as a statue in Sundown Island and someone started fighting me, and being overpowered. I told him something along the lines of "Stop being overpowered." He was annoying, plus he was roleplaying as a final character and i am not really surprised that they were being op, he was probably a troll after all.
I met a power player once, they just kept on telling people that “I killed you,” and another was like “I dodged” even WHEN I SAID *NO DODGE OR BLOCK OR MISS BECAUSE I KNEW THEY WAS GONNA DO THAT*
so you met a power player that keeps telling people "i killed you" and one said "i dodged" and now your saying "even WHEN I SAID" so are you the power player or no?
lpsPrincesswolf No, I NEVER say no miss or dodge, EVER. The “attacks” I was trying to do were vital for the continuation of the role play (the character in question was to be injured) but we didn’t realize they were a power player. We tried to explain to them that this was what was happening (they agreed before hand) but they just power played, and so the role play was called off
Real conversation between myself and some guy and some other guy in Legends of Kasai (simplified) "Hey want to fight" -guy "No my Dragon is peaceful" -other guy "Pfft too bad *dives at neck*" -guy "*bites out throte and claws you*" -guy "Wait what no" -other guy " dude your dead *eats your soul*" -guy Other guy walks away "Uhh thats not how you rp" -me "Oh you challenge me? *flys up high*" -guy (rp mode on) "yeah, I do" *battle stance* "*dives and kills you and absorbs soul*" -guy ";-;" -me "I SAID *ABSORBS SOUL* LEABE YOUR DEAD" -guy ";-; *leaves presence of guy*" "Why are you moving your dead" -guy Fight continues until he leaves of boredom
I can admit that I used to be a speed fighter, but now I’ve been trying to slow down, although sometimes I end up not letting the other person respond.
what i like to do with this is only send one message at a time with what i wanna do, and then pause to let the other person respond! its good to do full sentances to compact all the things you wanna do instead of spamming a million things like "he dodged" "he rolled" "he murdered your entire family" "he nuked all of pyrrhia"
" -Shrek would read the dragon's mind" I swear to god I freaking FELT how awful that is. EDIT: A tip of mine that helps with speed typing for me is just to not type, wait for the other player at fight back, dodge, or do whatever, then you react.
I think that what people should do with the special abilities thing is limit the special ability to one dragon. Like, I only gave one of my skywings firescales. The exception to this would be stuff like the moon globe for the icewing, because it doesn’t actually make your dragon stronger, it’s just a cool little thing to have.
My night wing oc is an animus but she doesn't read minds or know future, Is that powereplaying? Oh, also the night wing doesn't go crazy if overusing her powers. I ask this because one roleplayer said I was OP. Well, I will also say some flaws my night wing has like... Not very fast and not a good eyesight. Well, please answer
@@silviavaliente4551 No. Power playing is being too strong in a rp. Your dragon doesn't have good eyesight, so that affects battles as long as it doesn't use animus magic to fix itself.
I don’t roleplay a lot anymore since I haven’t in a long time =w= I went months without roleplaying cause I just wasn’t in the mood. I’m more of the person to do dumb little roleplays than do big roleplays in giant groups. I’ve seen the chaos that can ensue from giant roleplays ._.
Someone tried to force me into cell and cut off my barb! (you need permission to cut a barb!) I was doing a prison rp they were not in the rp! I WAS A GUARD!
My best advice not to be a Mary sue is to have equal amounts of disadvantages and advantages personality wise or any other. For example, for a personality, you could have "Caring, nice, bold" But also have "Insecure and flat" So it's like a real person, nobody's perfect. Power-wise, "NightWing mind reading" for example plus "Weaknesses: Sometimes overwhelmed by power" is equal. Sometimes you have to ask questions about your characters backstory and how they got to where they are, like, "How did my OC get NightWing foresight?" and come up with a reasonable answer. Anyways, I hope this is helpful!
I only control other characters if they are not an actual player. I usually only play roleplays that are small, 1-3 people and we take turns controlling the other characters. I like to give my dragons flaws or mental issues that are caused because of something that has happened in the story. (Whenever I play as a firescale (not much) I usually make it something bad about the dragon.) Usually when I do roleplays, I just make up a dragon on the spot and grow the backstory according to the story so they pretty much end up with a blank bio. I'm a fast typer (66 wpm is my best) but I never use it to an advantage. I like to wait for the other player to respond. Also, 1 dislike. Now we know that Kestrel has been here.
You know, I'm fine with firescales actually! The trait is mostly negative except in battle. After all, you can't touch anything or anyone, cause it'll burn up into basically a crisp. You can only really just..... Sit there and maybe fight. You can't do anything normal, and can't have really any physical touch with anyone.. But you want to know what I want to see? The other twin that comes with flamescale dragon. You could make a very interesting character with them actually! (I'm actually planning on making flamescale/weaker fire twins in my last two Skywing spots) It's just an interesting idea. If we have so many flamescale, there's bound to plenty of weaker fire twins who've managed to survive.
One time I was doing a private arena rp and I was battling a person who would a) void almost all of the attacks I did and b) did not ask perm to kill.... it sucked 😂
Had a simular exoerience on a public server.. this person had 3 skywing guards on em, pinning em down and yet he still apparently managed to shove all 3 off.. crap like that sucks man ;T
@@tigerstar5231 oh boy the people who " defeat " alot of dragons when they all attack them are hella annoying especially when im tryna rp as my guard and *S c r e e c H*
Tip on how to make a good character! Either give them 6 small phobias/weaknesses that are-- in a long amount of time-- able to be overcome, or give them 3 phobias/weaknesses that they cannot overcome.
I actually have a completely WRECKED oc she's depressed/anxiety disorder/has seizures, she's light like me all mental disorders I have, she's also an animus but doesn't use her powers for herself but for others, its good to keep ocs imperfect so no one calls u a power player/Mary sue
I roleplay with my friend mainly and when we do, I usually have an idea on how I want the plot to go but since I don't tell her it ends up being waaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyy more interesting. Vice versa as well
My character, Flicker is a firescales. I do not kill without perm and I also only give slight burns. This makes the fight less boring and last longer! :D She also isn’t allowed past the arena, to allow enemies to escape. She can’t burn the chains off prisoners or herself becuz that’s just plain unfair. Venom boils on her and turns into tar, chemically burning her scales into a black color. Sand wing stingers DO paralyze her, but get burnt in the process. (Only 1 sting allowed per battle, no overusing.) She has to eat her armor to survive during battle. (You break off the armor, then get rid of it, her firescales will dim and she will be weak, allowing you to attack easier.) So she has her pros and cons, but it is VERY weighed out. Not all firescales are bad, my friends!
The only problem I have for me is; I don’t know how to get invested or into a role play cause I’m scared I’m doing something wrong or don’t know how to get into the story 😔 plus they sometimes get out of hand and don’t know how to end it.
I usually just start talking to a random player and it ends up as a roleplay. There aren't many people in any of my roleplays (except for this one academy one...) so it doesn't get too out of hand and you can easily just tell them if it does without trying to tell so many other people.
I have a story! One time, I was rping as a queen's princess, and, get this, she was an animus queen. So I'm sitting there, barbecue sauce on my- Wait, whoops, off topic. I'm sitting there, and then I choose to try challenging her. Uh... yeah, I uh... kinda ended up dead. I had to go, so uh. Yeah. Yay for op queen characters, amirite?
I'm a very fast typer- but I'm also awful at remembering fighting moves. Also some recommendations from someone who isn't important but has been roleplaying for many years- I recommend if you're going to make a firescales character to make them not a full firescales. What this means is they are not immune to fire and can still be damaged by it. Or you can make them be burned by their own firescales from time to time, albeit it is not a cannon downside. Always give powerful characters defects or make them infrequent. Or, make them have a uncommon role they can use to their advantage! My firescales OC, Col, is usually a chef or royal chef as the job, and by the way, that role is actually VERY fun! Or, if you're going to make an animus OC, maintain it to the known tribes, or give them a direct parent/grandparent/ancestor etc. that can carry that gene. I, myself, have an IceWing OC that is an animus because one of her ancestors was a royal SeaWing. Of course she doesn't know but, she's a very shy character that doesn't like talking, and is afraid of importance, so in a roleplay should she ever find out she is, she will fear herself and hate it. Anyways remind me to edit this comment later I have a chat I want to attend to prove I'm active in it. Whoever does remind me to and gets the notif thru to me because usually it doesn't gets an imaginary cookie because I absolutely will forget about this comment
I remember the last time when i play this game I made a simple female dragon and put it as a 'teen' Just flying around and doing my own thing Then an adult dragon try to 'mate' me i was pretty nice so i was struggling to say no But lucky me another adult dragon chase him away Anyway i love your videos
I can agree with of all those. I’ll admit I used to do a few of those when I was younger. I learned from that, and I am a speed typer- but to prevent from becoming op while roleplaying. I give the other person plenty of time to type.
Not on wings of fire, but on a different game. I was doing a good vs. evil role play, and one person just kept freezing, trapping and sending me to another dimension. I couldn’t do anything, it was really annoying :/
Say "Come closer..." And then say "*Cuasualy Self Distrusts Killing you and me at the same time but I still live on in the dimensions you sent me to" If they wanna power play. *SHOW THEM POWER PLAY*
This one time years ago when Google+ wasn't dead, I use to RP there until a power player shot my character ("No dodge" of course) and my dumb kid self just accepted it. Didn't go back to that community after that one except to be edgy and sad. XDDDD
One day I was a SkyWing and I fought against a sand wing, so we fought fairly clean, I won (I let him give me attacks, but since my oc had armor and the dragon was fire, it kind of gave me a lot of damage, even when he hit me and those things worked well) It was a pretty clean fight
Yesterday I saw people playing as dogs that kinda annoyed me cause it’s Wings of Fire. And just yea I’ve seen toothless in one and other things like that. I was worried that that would happen when the game was released
If I know how to edit games, then I might make a How to train your dragon game and maybe make fan made wings of fire where I could make fan made tribes and make kingdoms for the tribes. (It will not include the tribes like the seawings or the skywings) And I will make sure you don't have to have robux to play. So we don't have this problem. If I figure out, say the name of your fan made tribe and what the kingdom looks like and what abilities they have.
Tide Wing Mine Are ColonyWings; Appearance: Small Dragons That Have Antennae Like SilkWings And Can Be Colors From Black To Red To Yellow. They’re Basically SilkWings But They’re Ants Instead Of Butterflies. ColonyWings Have No Wings, Except For Princesses, Who Don’t Even Keep The Wings When They Become Queen. / Kingdom: They Have A Large Hill That They Live In. There Are Multiple Hills, Like There Are Hives. The Hills Are: Ruby Hill, Jewel Hill, Diamond Hill, Pearl Hill. / Enemies If You Needed It: Their Enemies Are Sadly Canon Tribes But I’ll Still List Them. HiveWings And LeafWings. / Abilities: ColonyWings Can Spit Venom Like RainWings, And Can Also Inject Venom Using A Bite. However They Like Peace, Much Like SilkWings.
I've dealt with speed typers before and they kept attacking without letting me respond. It was in a warrior cats game and I tried confronting them about it but they wouldn't listen so I ended up just leaving the roleplay all together and left the game. (It was a hostage situation where I had kidnapped a kit and they were sent to retrieve it. They attacked my OC and I wasn't able to do anything because I was too slow at responding to all the attacks. Please give people a chance to respond when you are fighting, roleplaying is supposed to be fun for everyone, not just the fast typers!)
*When someone keep's dodging someone's attacks* Power player: *Dodges a 100 times* Me: So you chose death *Ties power player to a chair and throws out the window no miss or doge* Me: Kids, never keep dodging people's attacks or else you will be like that person. And there is no mercy if you keep dodging people's attacks
If I had an animus OC, I think I’d give them other parts that would be considered evening them out slightly. As if they are missing their talons or wings, or are just terrified of their powers in general.
If you were to make a powerful OC, you should at least give them 1-6 weaknesses. Here are some weakness examples I use: -Fire -Loud noises -Flying for too long -Breaking an important piece of equipment or body part needed for your character to stay alive ETC
Imao I do the speed-typing a lot (mainly by accident) But I have learned to settle down on my speed and take breaks after 1-2 attacks especially for slower typers
Things I hate in roleplays, I don’t play this but I bought the game to test it out cause why not -^- however, I rp mostly on neon district, highly recommend it as long as you read the story line and roles 1. Being immortal, it ruins the fact it’s a cyberpunk rp game, there can be mutant creatures or humans with paranormal abilities sure, there’s a testing lab near by, but being immortal makes it impossible to have fights, not to mention there are rp weapons for you to shoot people with. 2. Dodging *EVERYTHING* it ruins the whole fighting premise, and I’m pretty sure a normal human being can’t dodge a bullet unless their lucky. 3. At random attacking, and growling (if your in a nonhuman rp game), punching sound effects, and gunshots are ANNOYING. It ruins rp effects, So don’t do it ;-; 4. Specifically attacking someone who is OOC, or aka out of character, it’s unfair to that person, not to mention they aren’t even roping right now, so there really isn’t a point. 5. And finally number five! I’ll come back and edit in some extra slots for annoyances, but it’s the morning for me, and I’m tired and want breakfast. An annoying thing that happens is these, frp fights: *Makes tsunami killing everyone* *jumps really high over tsunami* It makes no logical sense so I don’t like them at all, however you enjoy roping like this it’s completely fine :)
Seeing as firescales are an in-game feature, people should ask for permission before burning someone, but they're still allowed due to being a part of the customization. Same is true of mind reading Nightwings. Permissions needed, but probably still should be allowed in my opinion. But you can void special abilities if you want to.
Also, I have some tips on how to avoid these! First, if you want to roleplay a specific plot, talk it over with the people you're role-playing with first. Second, if you type fast, it doesn't mean that you're a speed typer like shown. Simply make sure that you give the other person a turn to attack or defend.
Somebody came up to me and I was sitting on the throne thing They Copied MY avatar and made it a boy version of me. They challenge me to a fight and they are a God, Insta Kill.. MoSt pOwErFuL.. I just ignored them. Still annoying.
Here is one thing that needs to be addressed: Don’t make your character all-powerful, but don’t make them totally helpless either. It’s not fun at all to roleplay with a god OR someone who can be killed extremely easily. It’s fine to have strong or weak characters, but try not to make them extremely powerful or extremely weak and pathetic.
EDIT: Ew cringy 1 yearold comment >:| 2023 EDIT: I couldn’t even spell “instead” 💀💀 3:47 well. i type fast but i let them type so its fair for them. and if i end up fast typing and not letting them attack ill say (oops sorry undo that. do ur attack insted.
I don't see it as a bad thing to use fast typing to your advantage, as long as it's not power playing and upsetting your friend fast typing can be used for some seriously good plays.
Me: is my doggo Mochi Oc a power player or a Mary Sue lets see i will list what she can do Bark Wine Smell for things Chew on things And well to dog stuff wait she can bite i guess she is a weak drago- no she is not a dragon she is a doggo! Wait I know her super power It’s being cute it does not help in fights but its sure cute
@@mystaartzs8367 the Warrior Cats books don't exist in the Wings of Fire unjverse, so it's metagaming to have a character that likes said book series that doesn't exist on Pyrrhia or Pantala.
Just curious, why do so many roleplayers use the future tense(“he would smile”)? It kind of bothers me. I can see why you’d use the past or present tense... but future?
I think because it adds depth or a dramatic feeling to the roleplay, and feels less simple as "*smiles*" or because that roleplayer would become an author
Well, let’s Compare a bit. When you’re saying he would smile and contrast with his smile, or in contrast with smiles, it’s a bit too plain. For example, let’s say the characters name was Rex. There isn’t any other way to establish it unless it is Rex would smile (well, other than establishing it as ‘Rex smiled.’) It is used very commonly in the role playing community. Since your technically saying what your character is doing, your usually into that Author mode.
*in some role-play games you can control other peoples players with consent, like mind control, or you can be like:* *”-id throw you into the wall, you crashed into it with immense speed-“ or they can counter the move*
a quick recap or if you want to know everything beforehand for some reason. i don’t know if this was done yet 1. God modding -using the other person’s character. for like, no reason or something -solution: do not make other people’s characters yours 2. Power-playing -pretty much able to kill you without even knowing your existence. also a lot of those characters dodge everything, yet the other ones can’t dodge. -solution: do not just **dodge** every single attack. also do not kill everyone with the blink of your character’s eye. 3. Mary/Gary Sues -a character that is flawless, the world bowing before them. often associated with 2, aka power-playing -solution: put some flaws in them, big or small. at least ONE big flaw (maybe a phobia or something. ALSO RESEARCH IT!) 4. Meta Gaming -your character having knowledge they shouldn’t. kinda like a fourth wall break. -solution: do not make your characters op and know everything about the other character. 5. Forcing Plot -basically making the other person’s character obey your plot even if they don’t like it. -solution: let the other person type out the response. plots are usually just the setting of the story by the way. 6. Speed Typing -typing fast and not letting the other character type a response. -solution: let the other person type out a response to maximum 2 of your lines. some things that you can slip away with (this is for general characters, not WoF. also might add more): -your character is written to kill everything they touch. usually like a personification of death or something (to 2) DO NOT MAKE THEM ALL-POWERFUL THOUGH. -your character is psychic and can read minds. BUT, this does NOT mean knowing a character’s weakness when they’re NOT thinking about it. (to 4)
Great examples! Luckily I RP in a small group on Insta and always start out with young or weak characters, that way there’s no danger of accidentally overstepping. But I have seen someone do multiple things on this list all at once and it really screwed w our little dynamic. Luckily that roleplaying quit soon after, and took their drama with them (they did NOT take kindly to constructive criticism). A big part of role playing is letting other ppl help shape your character. It can be frustrating when u have an idea and something goes completely in another direction, but that’s just part of the deal, and it can be fun if u open yourself up to it. For example, I had a character that existed solely to introduce conflict into the rp and to further my main character. I fully planned to kill off this dude once he outlived his usefulness. But then another roleplayer came along and started interacting w him in a way that no one else had yet, and slowly he began to change. Now his redemption arc is one of my favorite things I’ve ever written. Roleplaying can completely surprise you, and that’s okay. If letting other ppl have a hand it building your story bothers you, that’s fine, but it also means that roleplaying probably isn’t right for you. Being a bad roleplayer doesn’t make you a bad or selfish person, it just means you either need to adapt or you have to explore other hobbies, both of which are good things to do anyways. Ty for putting this into words so well!
This should get more veiws so more people like this can see, as a roleplayer, people like this are soo anoying! And the Mary sues/Gary sues are in my opinion some of the worst
Someone forcing Plot me so i can die and it was a rp and i was queen and this sea wing that was a prince said you have to die its the only way we can break the curse and i said bruh i dont wanna die i bet there is another way and he is like but there is no way you have to die *gets knife and kills* and im like WTH! so i really hate forcing plots and we were all mad at him *i knew he just wanted to be king soooo*
Well I saw someone wanting to be king and force a plot in a different way, One time I was the queen in a roleplay and a nightwing who said that I should be his queen, but I said I don't to. The nightwing started making a plot that he was mated with the queen and I kept saying no, after saying no like 50 times, he finally stopped and left.
Roleplay tipperoni; When fighting in the arena, always make sure to add a sort of lunged at move? Like “She’d lunge at the dragon’s left wing with open talons.” As a sort of open offer, like improv in drama, you give the dragon a decision while also avoiding OPness!

Blood talon: Blood-Talon is a murderous night wing. His claws look as if he had plunged them into an ice wings throat. Though he is handsome, he will not hesitate to assassinate. He is also an assassin for hire with no night wing powers. He is strong and skillful, but keeps his guard up at all times.

Pompeii: (depressed bean) Anxious- bad past- quiet- mean when it is necessary- terrified of fire- more open around dragons she trusts- depressed- doesn't pay attention. Icy bois: Himalayas: She is an elegant, beautiful ice wing. She can sometimes be full of herself, though she can also be kind and caring. How she treats you depends on how you treat her, she also goes off of fir st impressions. She is strong but not stealthy, and a fast learner. Hypothermia: (my first icy boi) Sweet- funny- strong- tidy- organized- has OCD- (I was NOT feeling it when I made her-) Sea bois: Falls: Sassy- favorite prey is Tuna- royal- animus, though she limits her power greatly because she knows the risks- not a good fighter- wishes she wasn't an animus Depth: Weird- sarcastic-loyal- kind to those who deserve it- smart- (I use her for my clan role plays) Sky wings: Flight: Strong- aggressive- menacing- terrible at being stealthy- fast decision maker- a good(ish) leader. Twig: Twig is a fireless sky/mud hybrid. He is super sweet but a terrible fighter. He is quite smart and a fast learner, as well as easily flustered. He has been told his whole life that he isnt worth anything, and he believes it. He loves to read and write, but is terrible at being stealthy. ((No muddy bois qnq Sandy bois: Hiss: Menacing- persuasive- notices nearly everything- strong- quick to judge- Burrow: (my first ever oc on WoF) Funny, strong, weird, bookworm, likes to yet things Grain: Grain is a kind, caring dragon.

This took forever and I kept accidentally deleting it qwq Well, thanks for reading that all-
I am what you would call a generous speed typer. I am sonic on the keyboard but I won't add to an attack till the other person responds. Also tip for ocs with aminus abilities or firescales: Just don't mary sue it. You can have your oc be a completely normal dragon, they don't have to be afraid to make friends out of worry of burning them or they can use their abilities sparingly. Another tip is dont have the parents hate or use them, that trope's been done to death and is really hard to pull off well without being seen as a mary sue/gary stu/charlie loo
i don’t do fighting rps, bc all of the ppl i ‘fight’ with always attack me before i can actually get a response out. i was an icewing & this rainwing was like, ‘*stabs with dagger*’ ‘*sprays with acid*’ ‘*slashes eyes*’ i said that i’m not going to rp with you because you won’t even let me type my response. i hate these types of ‘roleplayers’.

Roleplay tip:
Ask for someone's permission when you want to kill them. If they say no, then don't cry about it. If they say yes, then you have every right to kill them.
Time to go ask myself this question and say yes.
Yeah one of my friends doesn't wait for other ppl to respond when in battle, and doesn't ask for perm to kill the oc
I don’t know why but the last part of your comment made me laugh
*you have every right to kill them*
Yeah, time to ask myself the same question.
Can I kill myself

My definition of a Mary Sue is someone either overly OP or someone where the world around them bends to their needs. OP-ness doesn't make someone automatically a Mary Sue. Darkstalker was the most powerful dragon, but he was able to be defeated. The world bends to the Mary Sue by giving them unexplained abilities and powers. If a Mary Sue has no experience in fixing ships, she shouldn't be able to repair a steam ship better than someone who's job is to work on ships. She shouldn't be able to suddenly develop amazing fighting skills and beat a highly trained enemy, if she has little to no actual training.
Thank you for coming to my Mary Sue ted talk :3
Well, I’m darkstalkers case I think that he was defeated by his stupidity/arrogance.
The only thing that I’m confused about is how kinkajou was able to duplicate animus magic
*cough* *cough* DoveWing *cough
Well, Mary Sues can be male too
SO TRUE. Thats the one thing dragon types got wrong. My OC has ICE MAGIC and he is a pretty normal dude (he doesnt world bend)
So pretty much 90% of anime protagonists
“don’t speed type”
every 6th grade DT teacher ever: **nervous sweating**
My best tips:
Always keep your OC's to a limit.
If they are good at one thing, say fighting, say they aren't very witty or fast, as for muscle for a bulky dragon can slow it's movements down.
During all times of a roleplay, take turns. (This avoids people with fast typing skills to have a huge advantage in fights and complex interactions that requite a lot of back-and-forth wordplay. This makes it so that you both get an advantage, in fact, as for you can both get to think about what you want to say before you do.)
Say you say that your OC is fighting your friend's oc. You'll say, "-They slashed across the other dragon's snout.-" and the other person, for example, says "-They roared furiously, holding their snout and clawing the other dragon's stomach.-" You can take turns, and every other time something happens, it'll be your actions.
For characters with manipulative powers, always have a weakness for it. Say you can dig yourself into other peoples minds, you can make it so they can block you out like any other voice.
If you're not quite sure what's overpowered or not, try to compare it fighting a battle with one of your good characters (who aren't op or up), and try to estimate if the fight would be long or short. If your character kills them in a near instant, try to fix some of it. If the battle lasts a long time, then your character is probably perfect. (Also they should be friends so they don't have to fight :>)
Me: is socially awkward, not good at starting conversations and scared to enter a roleplay
Also me: Intresting
Role playing can be scary at first, but just test it out with a genre you like! It’s weird at first and sometimes you can feel scared by it, but the fun and reward of having a good role play is quite rewarding! If you’re afraid to start alone, you can find people in game/in the lobbies that want to start up an rp. If you’re unsure how to start an rp, just check out chat, create an oc, and figure out how to do it as you go!
I’ve rped for about 5-ish years now and I understand the feeling of being afraid but most people won’t actually shred you to bits for asking to rp with them, in fact, they’ll usually let you into their rp! If you do come across the toxics ones however, report them and be sure to block them if you can.
@@bottlecapjazz341 Yup! I would even say that servers of which you have to pay for are much better (less toxic and better role playing.) It’s been quite a while since I’ve seen good role players that I’ve actually could enjoy myself with.

I type fast lol
@@nicoleroberts7164 same
I type fast but I often go and edit my posts to make them better and that takes a while...
The way I combat having Mary Sue characteristics:
1) very shy, scrawy, weak, hesitant, doesnt like using powers, flighty af, etc
2) weak firescales/animus powers (weaken the power)
3) be a statue.
4) have the speed of an alligator
5) be the literal bottom of the barrel for powerful characters (basically having no good traits at all)
6) be a fish
*correct*
dragon: *has a strong trait*
what i immediately thought reading that last bit and now think you like to tell them: *"hee hoo gargoyle boi! HEE HOO! G A R G O Y L E ."*
*become a fish statue*
I have one animus dragon but they hate using their power for themselves or for other peoples selfish reasons, they generally use it to heal people :)
Another thing to add on to Mary Sue: it’s okay to have powers such as animus, flamesilk, night’wing powers, or fire scales as long as you have a weakness that fits your character. Even Darkstalker had his own weaknesses and he was above powerful. Don’t play the main character in rp it’s very annoying
|Casually Doesn't Even Get To Decide Your Own Death, A 7 Year Old Already Killed U|
I usually just put firescales on my SkyWings so I can see without torches, so if it's not in the bio, they technically don't have it. I do this with my Sea Wings too, but just because all SeaWings are supposed to have wing patterns in the books.
I give my firescales characters weaknesses to put them don on the OP list, such as easily manipulated or unintelligent. But that’s a cool trick, it’s easier than firebreath everywhere!
I had an OP oc, like many.
Half NightWing, quarter SkyWing, quarter SandWing.
In short, had much, much weaker versions of the normal abilities. She could not breathe fire (which is weird because ALL THREE TRIBES BREATHE FIRE-) her scales were hot to touch, but would occasionally flare up (hence her name), burning anything within proximity. Had a barb but much, much weaker poison than a SandWing, possibly rivaling that of a black widow in terms of danger, rather than a Dragonbite viper. Was a prophet. She gained all of these due to being hatched at the exact moment a huge solar flare occurred. This is also why she has pale yellow-orange scales, despite being half NightWing and part SkyWing.
Was deathly allergic to water. Touching water causes the touched scales go cold and huge nasty blisters form. Has one eye due to a fight near a river. Was dyslexic and not book smart, but was incredible in fighting, being untrusting and being able to spot anything that might assume the dragon a threat because her scales can't really burn anyone, they're as hot as a dark plastic bench in the summer noon (unless they flare).
@Ellie Spry, you did a good job with that, though yeah the no fire breath doesn't make as much sense
@@sparkfrog777
Yeah, I dunno why either. I think it had to do with her flare-scales and the event we was hatched on? Or maybe she drank a glass of water one day, I dunno
I only use Firescales for light, too
My Firescales OC has a crippled wing and leg from being thrown off a high cliff like Firescales usually get when they hatch
Ill be brutally honest,i didnt think of this...
I have 2 firescales ocs. One isn’t very smart and the other is only firescales on the outside; her wings and underbelly aren’t.
I really don’t understand why people create characters that have firescales on only part of their body?? I’m pretty sure that’s not at all possible in the canon universe??
Also, firescales can be op in roleplays, that’s true. But judging by Peril, firescales are much more of a negative trait than a positive one. Basically, firescales are good for fighting and struggle with literally everything else, so if used properly they can definitely make good, balanced characters.
I made a rival oc for my main oc. He has firescales and is part HiveWing, so he has stingers and such. I made him op, like how most rivals are. Lol
That's some Sparta stuff
its so awkward when the person ur roleplaying with is a really fast typer so it feels like ur typing for 8 years to them.. ;-;
I play Warriors roleplay on ROBLOX, and there’s a huge unspoken rule. If you’re fighting, you must ask for permission to kill to other player. If they say no, you can’t. If a power player says they killed you, you may ignore them.

Yeah I like never dodge
I’ve never dodged before-
U can dodge, just don’t do it like all the time just like once or twice, but what u should NEVER DO IS SAY “ATTACKS NO MISS”
I know right
If I do dodge, it’s usually like- “She rolled away from the incoming dragon, but he still managed to scratch her shoulder.”
The first one is officially called “railroading”

I was doing a Dod (dragonets of Destiny) role play, and they didn’t use the cave, they used their very small, tiny den. We all voted to go to the dod cave, but they kept whining about how it wasn’t as good, and interrupting saying “this cave sucks, my den is reallly much better”. One person wanted to join, and didn’t know what a role play was. The person said “it’s a game” the other person went “can I join?” “No, go away, we don’t want you”. LIKE JEEZ LADY CHILL THE HECK OUT THAT WAS PROBABLY A CHILD. The poor kid left right after and I just quit
Dang, sometimes I just dont get how some people can be so ignorant. RIP that kids feelings
........I used to believe everyone was born with common sense....
.....no longer...
Omg this happened today, I heard in chat a dod rp was going on and flew there, I said,"What's this???" And a person said "A game" and I was like,"Ummm yeah but what is the roleplay?" And then they ignored me. Like I just wanted to join
Idk how some people find good people to rp with. It seems like a lot of people are always rude ;-;
DANG!! Something like that happened to me too. They insisted on using their cave and they didn’t treat it like a DoD rp and more like a family rp and it was very strange I left

Once I met a god modder in Sundown Island who was apparently a ‘vampire’, me and someone were chatting OOC and some entirely black wolf walked up to the person I was talking to and said: *bites neck* *drinks blood* *she dies instantly* , he legit controlled her character by saying she died instantly. Some people could probably survive getting bitten and some blood taken
I googled it , 1.2-1.5 gallons of blood is in your body , a small bit wont harm you.
Oof, i had met another as well. I was roleplaying as a statue in Sundown Island and someone started fighting me, and being overpowered. I told him something along the lines of "Stop being overpowered." He was annoying, plus he was roleplaying as a final character and i am not really surprised that they were being op, he was probably a troll after all.
my mom: "what are your worst pet peeves"
my brain: *agonizes the thought of opp & 'god' players etc
me: pain-
I met a power player once, they just kept on telling people that “I killed you,” and another was like “I dodged” even WHEN I SAID *NO DODGE OR BLOCK OR MISS BECAUSE I KNEW THEY WAS GONNA DO THAT*
so you met a power player that keeps telling people "i killed you" and one said "i dodged" and now your saying "even WHEN I SAID" so are you the power player or no?
lpsPrincesswolf
No, I NEVER say no miss or dodge, EVER. The “attacks” I was trying to do were vital for the continuation of the role play (the character in question was to be injured) but we didn’t realize they were a power player. We tried to explain to them that this was what was happening (they agreed before hand) but they just power played, and so the role play was called off
I love how the other person is just like ;-; the whole time

I can admit that I used to be a speed fighter, but now I’ve been trying to slow down, although sometimes I end up not letting the other person respond.

what i like to do with this is only send one message at a time with what i wanna do, and then pause to let the other person respond! its good to do full sentances to compact all the things you wanna do instead of spamming a million things like "he dodged" "he rolled" "he murdered your entire family" "he nuked all of pyrrhia"

I don't roleplay, I use my rainwing camouflage to stalk people's RPs

I think that what people should do with the special abilities thing is limit the special ability to one dragon. Like, I only gave one of my skywings firescales. The exception to this would be stuff like the moon globe for the icewing, because it doesn’t actually make your dragon stronger, it’s just a cool little thing to have.
My night wing oc is an animus but she doesn't read minds or know future,
Is that powereplaying? Oh, also the night wing doesn't go crazy if overusing her powers. I ask this because one roleplayer said I was OP. Well, I will also say some flaws my night wing has like... Not very fast and not a good eyesight. Well, please answer
@@silviavaliente4551 No. Power playing is being too strong in a rp. Your dragon doesn't have good eyesight, so that affects battles as long as it doesn't use animus magic to fix itself.
I was roleplaying alone and somebody just randomly tried to bring me into their roleplay, so I left to join a different server.

Just stay silent for 4 hours or so in some dark corner and they may notice you.
I don’t roleplay a lot anymore since I haven’t in a long time =w= I went months without roleplaying cause I just wasn’t in the mood. I’m more of the person to do dumb little roleplays than do big roleplays in giant groups. I’ve seen the chaos that can ensue from giant roleplays ._.
Someone tried to force me into cell and cut off my barb! (you need permission to cut a barb!) I was doing a prison rp they were not in the rp! I WAS A GUARD!
My best advice not to be a Mary sue is to have equal amounts of disadvantages and advantages personality wise or any other. For example, for a personality, you could have "Caring, nice, bold" But also have "Insecure and flat" So it's like a real person, nobody's perfect. Power-wise, "NightWing mind reading" for example plus "Weaknesses: Sometimes overwhelmed by power" is equal.
Sometimes you have to ask questions about your characters backstory and how they got to where they are, like, "How did my OC get NightWing foresight?" and come up with a reasonable answer. Anyways, I hope this is helpful!
I also hate when people in roleplays say “heals”
Oh god, you'd hate the Clone Wars RP
I only control other characters if they are not an actual player. I usually only play roleplays that are small, 1-3 people and we take turns controlling the other characters.
I like to give my dragons flaws or mental issues that are caused because of something that has happened in the story.
(Whenever I play as a firescale (not much) I usually make it something bad about the dragon.)
Usually when I do roleplays, I just make up a dragon on the spot and grow the backstory according to the story so they pretty much end up with a blank bio.
I'm a fast typer (66 wpm is my best) but I never use it to an advantage. I like to wait for the other player to respond.
Also, 1 dislike. Now we know that Kestrel has been here.

@@enterthegame7486 oh my goodness-
7. Don’t say someone’s a Mary Sue when they’re actually not.
You know, I'm fine with firescales actually! The trait is mostly negative except in battle. After all, you can't touch anything or anyone, cause it'll burn up into basically a crisp. You can only really just..... Sit there and maybe fight. You can't do anything normal, and can't have really any physical touch with anyone..
But you want to know what I want to see? The other twin that comes with flamescale dragon. You could make a very interesting character with them actually! (I'm actually planning on making flamescale/weaker fire twins in my last two Skywing spots)
It's just an interesting idea. If we have so many flamescale, there's bound to plenty of weaker fire twins who've managed to survive.
I have a fireless skywing named owl!
I have a non-fire skywing named circinae! Not very developed tho. Lol
One thing I do is like- .she lashed out at their muzzle with her claws. and let them decide if it hit them or not
That's fair!
I usaully go like *she attempted to attack her* and I’ll either say she failed or let the. Decide

This goes for roleplaying on other platforms, too. These are all rules for roleplaying in general. Obey them please
Tip on how to make a good character!
Either give them 6 small phobias/weaknesses that are-- in a long amount of time-- able to be overcome, or give them 3 phobias/weaknesses that they cannot overcome.
I actually have a completely WRECKED oc she's depressed/anxiety disorder/has seizures, she's light like me all mental disorders I have, she's also an animus but doesn't use her powers for herself but for others, its good to keep ocs imperfect so no one calls u a power player/Mary sue
I roleplay with my friend mainly and when we do, I usually have an idea on how I want the plot to go but since I don't tell her it ends up being waaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyy more interesting. Vice versa as well
My character, Flicker is a firescales. I do not kill without perm and I also only give slight burns. This makes the fight less boring and last longer! :D
She also isn’t allowed past the arena, to allow enemies to escape.
She can’t burn the chains off prisoners or herself becuz that’s just plain unfair.
Venom boils on her and turns into tar, chemically burning her scales into a black color.
Sand wing stingers DO paralyze her, but get burnt in the process. (Only 1 sting allowed per battle, no overusing.)
She has to eat her armor to survive during battle. (You break off the armor, then get rid of it, her firescales will dim and she will be weak, allowing you to attack easier.)
So she has her pros and cons, but it is VERY weighed out. Not all firescales are bad, my friends!
Cool! Great way to make the use of firescales fair!
The only problem I have for me is; I don’t know how to get invested or into a role play cause I’m scared I’m doing something wrong or don’t know how to get into the story 😔 plus they sometimes get out of hand and don’t know how to end it.
I usually just start talking to a random player and it ends up as a roleplay. There aren't many people in any of my roleplays (except for this one academy one...) so it doesn't get too out of hand and you can easily just tell them if it does without trying to tell so many other people.

it's also annoying when you're roleplaying but the character says they keep blocking/dodge the attacks-

I'm a very fast typer- but I'm also awful at remembering fighting moves.
Also some recommendations from someone who isn't important but has been roleplaying for many years-
I recommend if you're going to make a firescales character to make them not a full firescales. What this means is they are not immune to fire and can still be damaged by it. Or you can make them be burned by their own firescales from time to time, albeit it is not a cannon downside. Always give powerful characters defects or make them infrequent. Or, make them have a uncommon role they can use to their advantage! My firescales OC, Col, is usually a chef or royal chef as the job, and by the way, that role is actually VERY fun! Or, if you're going to make an animus OC, maintain it to the known tribes, or give them a direct parent/grandparent/ancestor etc. that can carry that gene. I, myself, have an IceWing OC that is an animus because one of her ancestors was a royal SeaWing. Of course she doesn't know but, she's a very shy character that doesn't like talking, and is afraid of importance, so in a roleplay should she ever find out she is, she will fear herself and hate it.
Anyways remind me to edit this comment later I have a chat I want to attend to prove I'm active in it. Whoever does remind me to and gets the notif thru to me because usually it doesn't gets an imaginary cookie because I absolutely will forget about this comment

Hey whats this dragon game? I wanna play whats it called
@@Random_micheal wings of fire
·Almond Milk· ......wings of fire......
Yes but in WoF it's prob a rule too
@@Random_micheal "[Early access] Wings of Fire" If you search the game it should come up.
I remember the last time when i play this game
I made a simple female dragon and put it as a 'teen'
Just flying around and doing my own thing
Then an adult dragon try to 'mate' me i was pretty nice so i was struggling to say no
But lucky me another adult dragon chase him away
Anyway i love your videos
I can agree with of all those. I’ll admit I used to do a few of those when I was younger. I learned from that, and I am a speed typer- but to prevent from becoming op while roleplaying. I give the other person plenty of time to type.
Phew, thank you so much for putting this out there! People need to know this magic. 😮✨
Not on wings of fire, but on a different game. I was doing a good vs. evil role play, and one person just kept freezing, trapping and sending me to another dimension. I couldn’t do anything, it was really annoying :/
Say "Come closer..." And then say "*Cuasualy Self Distrusts Killing you and me at the same time but I still live on in the dimensions you sent me to"
If they wanna power play. *SHOW THEM POWER PLAY*
Yikes ignore my awful grammar and spelling-
Scorching Blaze haha, that works lol. I was trying to o be fair but that would’ve worked too lol
Doctor Strange vibes...
This one time years ago when Google+ wasn't dead, I use to RP there until a power player shot my character ("No dodge" of course) and my dumb kid self just accepted it. Didn't go back to that community after that one except to be edgy and sad. XDDDD
Sad thing is, people like me encountered all of these types of people. It’s really annoying.
You forgot one thing
*n o o n l i n e d a t i n g*
Yes!
You can ONLY date if it is NOT inappropriate in the roleplay.
That is a rule on roblox, but it doesn't attack ship rps. But still. N O O N L I N E D A T I N G
One day I was a SkyWing and I fought against a sand wing, so we fought fairly clean, I won (I let him give me attacks, but since my oc had armor and the dragon was fire, it kind of gave me a lot of damage, even when he hit me and those things worked well)
It was a pretty clean fight
They way I avoid speed typing, is I use fancy symbols, so that it takes longer for me to type it :)
That is very considerate!
Yesterday I saw people playing as dogs that kinda annoyed me cause it’s Wings of Fire. And just yea I’ve seen toothless in one and other things like that. I was worried that that would happen when the game was released
That annoys me too. If they wanna roleplay How to Train your Dragon they should just go on Dragons life. They'd fit in quite well there.
;-;
If I know how to edit games, then I might make a How to train your dragon game and maybe make fan made wings of fire where I could make fan made tribes and make kingdoms for the tribes. (It will not include the tribes like the seawings or the skywings) And I will make sure you don't have to have robux to play. So we don't have this problem. If I figure out, say the name of your fan made tribe and what the kingdom looks like and what abilities they have.
and don't forget to describe what the dragon looks like
Tide Wing Mine Are ColonyWings; Appearance: Small Dragons That Have Antennae Like SilkWings And Can Be Colors From Black To Red To Yellow. They’re Basically SilkWings But They’re Ants Instead Of Butterflies. ColonyWings Have No Wings, Except For Princesses, Who Don’t Even Keep The Wings When They Become Queen. / Kingdom: They Have A Large Hill That They Live In. There Are Multiple Hills, Like There Are Hives. The Hills Are: Ruby Hill, Jewel Hill, Diamond Hill, Pearl Hill. / Enemies If You Needed It: Their Enemies Are Sadly Canon Tribes But I’ll Still List Them. HiveWings And LeafWings. / Abilities: ColonyWings Can Spit Venom Like RainWings, And Can Also Inject Venom Using A Bite. However They Like Peace, Much Like SilkWings.
I've dealt with speed typers before and they kept attacking without letting me respond. It was in a warrior cats game and I tried confronting them about it but they wouldn't listen so I ended up just leaving the roleplay all together and left the game. (It was a hostage situation where I had kidnapped a kit and they were sent to retrieve it. They attacked my OC and I wasn't able to do anything because I was too slow at responding to all the attacks. Please give people a chance to respond when you are fighting, roleplaying is supposed to be fun for everyone, not just the fast typers!)
Was It wcue?
I Have Encountered Many Ppl On Rp Saying “DODGES” or “MISSES” And They Keep Saying That EveryTime ( YOU CANT KEEP DODGING MY ATTACKS!!!!!!)
Uggghhhh!
L. L. IKR >:C
*When someone keep's dodging someone's attacks*
Power player: *Dodges a 100 times*
Me: So you chose death *Ties power player to a chair and throws out the window no miss or doge*
Me: Kids, never keep dodging people's attacks or else you will be like that person.
And there is no mercy if you keep dodging people's attacks
Anyone should dodge 3 times until they should get hit by an attack.
🎵I don’t wannna die in the silk vs rain war🎵
i do most of those but only in priivate servers when my freinds are fine with it because we discussed it and said it was fine in certain parts
If I had an animus OC, I think I’d give them other parts that would be considered evening them out slightly. As if they are missing their talons or wings, or are just terrified of their powers in general.
If you were to make a powerful OC, you should at least give them 1-6 weaknesses.
Here are some weakness examples I use:
-Fire
-Loud noises
-Flying for too long
-Breaking an important piece of equipment or body part needed for your character to stay alive
ETC
Nah
Imao I do the speed-typing a lot (mainly by accident)
But I have learned to settle down on my speed and take breaks after 1-2 attacks especially for slower typers
Things I hate in roleplays, I don’t play this but I bought the game to test it out cause why not -^- however, I rp mostly on neon district, highly recommend it as long as you read the story line and roles
1. Being immortal, it ruins the fact it’s a cyberpunk rp game, there can be mutant creatures or humans with paranormal abilities sure, there’s a testing lab near by, but being immortal makes it impossible to have fights, not to mention there are rp weapons for you to shoot people with.
2. Dodging *EVERYTHING* it ruins the whole fighting premise, and I’m pretty sure a normal human being can’t dodge a bullet unless their lucky.
3. At random attacking, and growling (if your in a nonhuman rp game), punching sound effects, and gunshots are ANNOYING. It ruins rp effects,
So don’t do it ;-;
4. Specifically attacking someone who is OOC, or aka out of character, it’s unfair to that person, not to mention they aren’t even roping right now, so there really isn’t a point.
5. And finally number five! I’ll come back and edit in some extra slots for annoyances, but it’s the morning for me, and I’m tired and want breakfast. An annoying thing that happens is these, frp fights: *Makes tsunami killing everyone* *jumps really high over tsunami* It makes no logical sense so I don’t like them at all, however you enjoy roping like this it’s completely fine :)
My little sister likes to make herself and stuffies in RPs
Seeing as firescales are an in-game feature, people should ask for permission before burning someone, but they're still allowed due to being a part of the customization. Same is true of mind reading Nightwings. Permissions needed, but probably still should be allowed in my opinion. But you can void special abilities if you want to.
Also, I have some tips on how to avoid these! First, if you want to roleplay a specific plot, talk it over with the people you're role-playing with first. Second, if you type fast, it doesn't mean that you're a speed typer like shown. Simply make sure that you give the other person a turn to attack or defend.
2:19 yeah basically the rp player i hate the most, who puts "secretly a _______" in their bio
It I did a "secretly a _____ or secretly ____" I meant Secretly a dragon who is color blind or secretly the weakest
Somebody came up to me and I was sitting on the throne thing They Copied MY avatar and made it a boy version of me. They challenge me to a fight and they are a God, Insta Kill.. MoSt pOwErFuL.. I just ignored them. Still annoying.

hi old me!
Here is one thing that needs to be addressed: Don’t make your character all-powerful, but don’t make them totally helpless either. It’s not fun at all to roleplay with a god OR someone who can be killed extremely easily. It’s fine to have strong or weak characters, but try not to make them extremely powerful or extremely weak and pathetic.
Roleplay games is my fav type of games, bcs roleplayes is like your dream life with your friends where you can be anybody and everywhere
EDIT: Ew cringy 1 yearold comment >:|

well. i type fast but i let them type so its fair for them. and if i end up fast typing and not letting them attack ill say (oops sorry undo that. do ur attack insted.
UnicornLover same
:D
I don't see it as a bad thing to use fast typing to your advantage, as long as it's not power playing and upsetting your friend fast typing can be used for some seriously good plays.
Me: is my doggo Mochi Oc a power player or a Mary Sue lets see i will list what she can do
Bark
Wine
Smell for things
Chew on things
And well to dog stuff wait she can bite i guess she is a weak drago- no she is not a dragon she is a doggo!
Wait I know her super power It’s being cute it does not help in fights but its sure cute
Power playing is not cool. >:(
jk. That sounds hilarious.
DragonTypes also i think you should have more subs i think you should have 10k subs
I love this video because i got an ad of a guy playing megalovania on a banjo. Thank you for bringing this man to my attention
I hate it when people don't go away when you ask nicely and ruin your RP
I saw a Queen once had "likes Warrior Cats" in their bio. Thanks for letting me know what that meant.
Cat Jones wait what’s wrong with warrior cats and what did you mean by that? 0-o (not trying to start a fight just generally confused)
@@mystaartzs8367 the Warrior Cats books don't exist in the Wings of Fire unjverse, so it's metagaming to have a character that likes said book series that doesn't exist on Pyrrhia or Pantala.
@@pinkythepinkslime6170 Unless...
They have it in the scrolls-
Just curious, why do so many roleplayers use the future tense(“he would smile”)? It kind of bothers me. I can see why you’d use the past or present tense... but future?
I think because it adds depth or a dramatic feeling to the roleplay, and feels less simple as "*smiles*" or because that roleplayer would become an author
Well, let’s Compare a bit. When you’re saying he would smile and contrast with his smile, or in contrast with smiles, it’s a bit too plain. For example, let’s say the characters name was Rex. There isn’t any other way to establish it unless it is Rex would smile (well, other than establishing it as ‘Rex smiled.’) It is used very commonly in the role playing community.
Since your technically saying what your character is doing, your usually into that Author mode.
*in some role-play games you can control other peoples players with consent, like mind control, or you can be like:*
*”-id throw you into the wall, you crashed into it with immense speed-“ or they can counter the move*
a quick recap or if you want to know everything beforehand for some reason. i don’t know if this was done yet
1. God modding
-using the other person’s character. for like, no reason or something
-solution: do not make other people’s characters yours
2. Power-playing
-pretty much able to kill you without even knowing your existence. also a lot of those characters dodge everything, yet the other ones can’t dodge.
-solution: do not just **dodge** every single attack. also do not kill everyone with the blink of your character’s eye.
3. Mary/Gary Sues
-a character that is flawless, the world bowing before them. often associated with 2, aka power-playing
-solution: put some flaws in them, big or small. at least ONE big flaw (maybe a phobia or something. ALSO RESEARCH IT!)
4. Meta Gaming
-your character having knowledge they shouldn’t. kinda like a fourth wall break.
-solution: do not make your characters op and know everything about the other character.
5. Forcing Plot
-basically making the other person’s character obey your plot even if they don’t like it.
-solution: let the other person type out the response. plots are usually just the setting of the story by the way.
6. Speed Typing
-typing fast and not letting the other character type a response.
-solution: let the other person type out a response to maximum 2 of your lines.
some things that you can slip away with (this is for general characters, not WoF. also might add more):
-your character is written to kill everything they touch. usually like a personification of death or something (to 2) DO NOT MAKE THEM ALL-POWERFUL THOUGH.
-your character is psychic and can read minds. BUT, this does NOT mean knowing a character’s weakness when they’re NOT thinking about it. (to 4)
I love this vid! Great job, Dragon Types and Gigi the Dragon!!!
Great examples! Luckily I RP in a small group on Insta and always start out with young or weak characters, that way there’s no danger of accidentally overstepping. But I have seen someone do multiple things on this list all at once and it really screwed w our little dynamic. Luckily that roleplaying quit soon after, and took their drama with them (they did NOT take kindly to constructive criticism).
A big part of role playing is letting other ppl help shape your character. It can be frustrating when u have an idea and something goes completely in another direction, but that’s just part of the deal, and it can be fun if u open yourself up to it.
For example, I had a character that existed solely to introduce conflict into the rp and to further my main character. I fully planned to kill off this dude once he outlived his usefulness. But then another roleplayer came along and started interacting w him in a way that no one else had yet, and slowly he began to change. Now his redemption arc is one of my favorite things I’ve ever written. Roleplaying can completely surprise you, and that’s okay.
If letting other ppl have a hand it building your story bothers you, that’s fine, but it also means that roleplaying probably isn’t right for you.
Being a bad roleplayer doesn’t make you a bad or selfish person, it just means you either need to adapt or you have to explore other hobbies, both of which are good things to do anyways.
Ty for putting this into words so well!
I'm SO glad you did this video! It was very useful to have a better RP with everyone! I even tried your tips and the RP went GREAT!
Awesome!
This should get more veiws so more people like this can see, as a roleplayer, people like this are soo anoying! And the Mary sues/Gary sues are in my opinion some of the worst
I do have a fire scales character but he has a weaker version of it so he instantly burn people.
Someone forcing Plot me so i can die and it was a rp and i was queen and this sea wing that was a prince said you have to die its the only way we can break the curse and i said bruh i dont wanna die i bet there is another way and he is like but there is no way you have to die *gets knife and kills* and im like WTH! so i really hate forcing plots and we were all mad at him *i knew he just wanted to be king soooo*
Exactly! That is no fun for the person who is forced to "die."
Well I saw someone wanting to be king and force a plot in a different way, One time I was the queen in a roleplay and a nightwing who said that I should be his queen, but I said I don't to. The nightwing started making a plot that he was mated with the queen and I kept saying no, after saying no like 50 times, he finally stopped and left.
God modding is also when you roleplay as a god. Example : God of Water, God of Ice, God of Air, etc. It also includes being immortal
Roleplay tipperoni;
When fighting in the arena, always make sure to add a sort of lunged at move? Like “She’d lunge at the dragon’s left wing with open talons.” As a sort of open offer, like improv in drama, you give the dragon a decision while also avoiding OPness!
I haven’t had to deal with the fast writers yet but if I had to I would definitely lose, I use a iPad to play Roblox.

My WoF ocs!
Night wings:
Scroll writer:
Sweet, gullible, protective, herb expert, loves to write, small and agile.
Blood talon:
Blood-Talon is a murderous night wing. His claws look as if he had plunged them into an ice wings throat. Though he is handsome, he will not hesitate to assassinate. He is also an assassin for hire with no night wing powers. He is strong and skillful, but keeps his guard up at all times.
I'm not doing my other one bc just *no*
Rain wings: (my most developed tribe)
Blue bear: (my most developed by far)
-independent- usually goes off fir st impressions- usually nice unless you tick her off- loud and silly around dragons she trusts- sometimes funny- organized- smart - ice/ rain hybrid- tail is slightly cold- loner- fast- horns and tail doesnt camo- pan
Oak: (my oldest and least favorite)
Shy- plant expert- smarter than she wants you to know- stronger than you think- weird- scroll worm- annoying at times- short- loud and obnoxious around people she is comfortable with- anxious.
Pompeii: (depressed bean)
Anxious- bad past- quiet- mean when it is necessary- terrified of fire- more open around dragons she trusts- depressed- doesn't pay attention.
Icy bois:
Himalayas:
She is an elegant, beautiful ice wing. She can sometimes be full of herself, though she can also be kind and caring. How she treats you depends on how you treat her, she also goes off of fir st impressions. She is strong but not stealthy, and a fast learner.
Hypothermia: (my first icy boi)
Sweet- funny- strong- tidy- organized- has OCD- (I was NOT feeling it when I made her-)
Sea bois:
Falls:
Sassy- favorite prey is Tuna- royal- animus, though she limits her power greatly because she knows the risks- not a good fighter- wishes she wasn't an animus
Depth:
Weird- sarcastic-loyal- kind to those who deserve it- smart- (I use her for my clan role plays)
Sky wings:
Flight:
Strong- aggressive- menacing- terrible at being stealthy- fast decision maker- a good(ish) leader.
Twig:
Twig is a fireless sky/mud hybrid. He is super sweet but a terrible fighter. He is quite smart and a fast learner, as well as easily flustered. He has been told his whole life that he isnt worth anything, and he believes it. He loves to read and write, but is terrible at being stealthy.
((No muddy bois qnq
Sandy bois:
Hiss:
Menacing- persuasive- notices nearly everything- strong- quick to judge-
Burrow: (my first ever oc on WoF)
Funny, strong, weird, bookworm, likes to yet things
Grain:
Grain is a kind, caring dragon. She owns a little shop which she also lives in. She is content with her life and is slightly old, giving her the reputation of a sweet grandma. Though she is not easy to steal from.
This took forever and I kept accidentally deleting it qwq
Well, thanks for reading that all-
Wow! I enjoyed reading your comment. Awesome names and bios! I like all the names... my favorite is Hypothermia.
L. L. Thanks!
Nice!
I am what you would call a generous speed typer. I am sonic on the keyboard but I won't add to an attack till the other person responds.
Also tip for ocs with aminus abilities or firescales: Just don't mary sue it. You can have your oc be a completely normal dragon, they don't have to be afraid to make friends out of worry of burning them or they can use their abilities sparingly. Another tip is dont have the parents hate or use them, that trope's been done to death and is really hard to pull off well without being seen as a mary sue/gary stu/charlie loo
i don’t do fighting rps, bc all of the ppl i ‘fight’ with always attack me before i can actually get a response out. i was an icewing & this rainwing was like, ‘*stabs with dagger*’ ‘*sprays with acid*’ ‘*slashes eyes*’
i said that i’m not going to rp with you because you won’t even let me type my response.
i hate these types of ‘roleplayers’.
