This thread is my way of introducing RPs to the Destinypedia Community, gathering those interested in participating in, and explaining what RPs are to those who don't know.

So, an RP, simply, is a forum post-based game where you create a character, and post on a thread to contro them. Joining them couldn't be simpler: you create a character on the thread (usually to a standard format) and integrate them in. Your character can be a Guardian or a Fallen, Hive, Vex or Cabal of any rank, so long as they are realistic for their race (e.g. Steve is not a suitable name for a Hive Wizard, but Tegoth, Xol Spawn is).

You'll have a main objective, but this may often get sidetracked, and plans can be formed. A player controlling the enemy often makes it more interesting, but it is important not to use information in your actions that you know only because you've read other posts– e.g.

Person A: A Stealth Vandal hides in the corner of the room, waiting for the Hunter to enter.

Person B: The Hunter enters the room, brings out his knife and throws it at the Vandal, killing him instantly.

In that example, Person B is at fault, as the Hunter could not have known the Vandal would be there.
