My short career as a roleplayer only began because of my obsession with dragons and minecraft. On an MC forum I discovered the wonderful world of raising virtual dragons via dragoncave. One day i was perusing the site, and stumbled upon the roleplaying section. Of all the role plays open, one struck me as the perfect candidate. I spent a week trying compiling my first character, which turned out okay enough for me. I tried my best to get caught up on the story, but there were at least 100 pages at the time I believe. I was extremely tentative, and tried to make sure I had everything I might need covered. Finally mustering the courage to message one of the hosts, I waited for the reply to come in, expecting the worst. The guy responded, and he was completely cool with me joining. He patiently answered my numerous questions, and helped me get set up. I joined.
Within a couple of months I had become slightly annonyed and restless. There were about 10 people in the topic I'm pretty sure, one of them spoke in broken English, most were inactive. Near the end of my stay one of them called me out for including one detail that he hadn't agreed to, and told me to fix it. I, being a new writer, was incredibly discouraged, so I prett much told myself I was done with that site. I discovered that one of the participants had a list of roleplays in their profile, so I decided to check them out.
I lost hope gradually as I moved down the list, and readied myself to continue the search. Near the bottom was the Omniverse. Clicking on it, I instantly fell in love. I spent a week reading the rules, and another creating a character. With my roster made and corrections corrected, Eric Everstorm was officially brought into existence.
I've had a great time with the Omniverse, and I would not trade this privilege for anything.
