RE: What kind of RP do you enjoy most? - 13uddy - 12-12-2015
I voted "other", not because the other choices didn't quite show my preference options, but I like a decent mixture that wasn't really represented by the available choices. Â For instance, I do like to RP a comic relief or just silly character, but not in a completely comedic RP style at all times. Â It has to feel organic to the story (be it my character's or the story that my character just happens to have a part in), and sometimes there will be drama, romance, action, etc. Â
I also like a mixture of plot RP and just random freeform RP. Â I prefer freeform, but that can be boring if there isn't a little excitement thrown in once in a while. Â In fact, one of my favorite RP developments of one of my old RP characters came about AFTER a plot had finished and my character and another were grieving the loss of a mutual friend. Â It led to my character meeting his new best friend (as well as me meeting one of MY closest friends in that character's player). Â
As the old saying goes, variety is the spice of life. Â I find the same holds true for RP for me as well.

All of the above, honestly, but my favorite is romance. In addition to its own value, having your character be involved with someone makes every dangerous plot you're involved in (or that they are involved in!) just that more suspenseful.
