Beginning and How To: Basic Roleplay discussion

Plots are the story ideas or pairing that your roleplay will follow. Just like characters, they vary in complexity.

Simple plots are typically just pairings of what the two characters should be. They can be gender pairings, occupation pairings, etc. They also can just be worlds that you want to rp in with either OC or Canon Characters

Examples (Feel free to use these)

~~Fandoms~~
Harry Potter (Maraduers Era)
Harry Potter (Golden Trio Era)
Shadowhunters (Infernal Devices Era)
Shadowhunters (Modern Era)
Heroes of Olympus (Camp Half Blood)

~~Pairings~~
MxF
FxF

Royalty x Guard
Royalty x Commoner
Supernatural Creature x Hunter
Photographer x Model
Celebrity x Fan
Good Girl x Bad Guy
Bad Girl x Good Guy
Demon/Vampire x Human
Angel x Human
Best Friends
Enemies

Complex plots are typically well written out and are like a decently long story and/or starting point of the roleplay. They typically lay out more of an outline of what to do and how the characters' relationship is going to progress.

For making these, I suggest taking a fandom or pairing that you like and then you write out a story frame to go with it.

~~Example~~
Pairing: Superhero (A) x Superhero (B)

Muse A is the star, everyone know who they are, the golden boy that gets all the glory, and who's the one that actually does all the work that Muse A takes credit for? Muse B that's who. Muse B has had enough of it and when there's a really planetary attack and Muse B defends the universe, the world takes notice as does Muse A. Muse A decides to approach Muse B in hopes of becoming a 'team' to get their fame back... up to discussion from there.
