- Relatively small groups (like 15 or less) because it's easier for me to keep up with what's going on and engage people. A major reason why I don't usually go to big events and hotspots (and when I do, I stay on the sidelines) is that the scroll can be hard for me to follow.
- Meeting new people! One of the most fun things for me is characters getting to know each other and forming friendships and making enemies.
- Interpersonal drama and character development, even if (especially if?) it involves conflict.
- Small scale, high impact, slow-burning plots as opposed to large scale plots.
- Hewing to a reasonable interpretation of lore (which in my mind includes both written lore and lore from game mechanics).
- "Naturally evolving" RP as opposed to RP where the outcome is planned in advance. About the most I like to plan in advance is anything involving consent (fights, injury, etc.) and actually setting up a time and context for some RP.
- Taking things that happen in the game world IC, such as commenting on how awesome some adventurers are when a DF goes well, laughing about people dancing in the streets, or muttering angrily about how lazy some kobolds are.
- IC dungeons! Can't get enough of those.
- "Channel RP" (i.e., RPing in an LS), as it allows more people to interact at a pace that works for them while they're out in the world.
