Welcome to the forum Wolffangfire!! I'm actually new at rping also, but I knew absolutely nothing about rping when I joined this forum. That's what I love so much about this place, there are alot of wonderful, patient (have to be with me) people on here who are willing to teach you. Oh, and one further note, don't pay any attention to EK about his anti smiley war. He just doesn't like to be happy is all!!

Welcome to the forum, Wolf! We're all happy to help you out with whatever game you want to play. We have plenty of games running right now; check the PBP section and join, or just chill a while in the general chat area and get to know everyone.
As for the smiley thing, I'm flattered that Rowan managed to warn you about me before I even said anything, in that it only shows how strong my message has become, and that it is something worth heeding. As for the message itself: beware the smileys like the deadly plague! They are actually part of a trap to kill your mind and trap your soul; consider yourself warned.

[Voice out of Nowhere] Lady called for me? [/Voice out of Nowhere]*Suddenly a burst of rainbow-color energy erupts in the room, and once it is gone, everybody can see a familiar (to some) elderly figure in battled black robe and dark purple cape with a hood. He looks solemn and serious until a happy grin suddenly appears upon his face * Thank you oh so very much for your compliment, Lady, it is most appreciated, especially since it comes from such an experienced DM and role-player as you are. Oh, and greetings, WolfFangFire, greetings and welcome into the Shadow of the Dragon! I hope that you will enjoy your stay here, and just as Rowan warned you, don't listen to ol' EK about the smileys, we all know they are so much fun! Despite Lady’s most gracious compliment, I must admit that I have never considered myself a good teacher, although I do have some skill and experience when it comes to DMing and role-playing. But if you will have any questions about online gaming, feel free to PM them to me and I will try to answer them at best of my ability. For a start, I would highly recommend you “Rose Dawn” online RPG by Tellyna (brainstorm thread - shadowdragons69.proboards2.com/index.cgi?board=RPGthread&action=display&n=1&thread=756 ;game thread - shadowdragons69.proboards2.com/index.cgi?board=RPGthread&action=display&n=1&thread=757), it is just starting and doesn’t appear as deadly or advanced as some other online RPGs that are currently played in the Shadow of the Dragon. I believe that joining “Rose Dawn” will be a good way for you to learn how to play an online RPG, and after that you may try your hand in more deadly and advanced online RPGs. By the way, so-called “Brainstorm” threads are for OOC (out of character; i.e. when you are speaking as a player, not as a character) discussions, and also often used for asking to join an online RPG and occasionally for posting your chracter’s description (if DM requires you to provide it or if you feel like openly posting it anyway). If you will have any questions about an ongoing online RPG, including the question whether it will be okay for you to join it, feel free to post these questions in “Brainstorm” thread for that RPG or PM them to DM. Once again, I hope that you will enjoy your stay in the Shadow of the Dragon, WolfFangFire, and that you’ll soon find an online RPG to join. Once again, if you will ever have any questions about online gaming, feel free to PM them to me.

Yes, hello WolfFangFire, I'd agree with BRO about the possibility of joining in on Rose Dawn. I'm currently the only "posting" player in the thread and the GM seems pretty interesting. I mean, I've just been addressed by a rather large (well to me anyway) panther. Come on over and take a look.

Welcome to the forum. It's always so wonderful to see new people. Make yourself at home and feel free to ask as many questions as you like. There are many different rp's to choose from, just get in touch with the DM's or GM's of the rp you may be interested in. Have fun, looking forward to seeing you on the boards
