ISRP General Chit ChatInteractive Story Role Play. This board is where you can ask general questions about how to play or take part in out of character discussion the events happening chat-side. Subforums of this board allow for in character participation.
Well folks, I think it might be nice to point our attention in directions that are a little less stressful or frustrating to the players.
So, I propose that we share some of our favorite ISRP memories or moments here in this thread. Can be anything you like involving RP. Hehe, and of course since I'm bringing it up, I will share one of my own first.
Back in the day I had a character named Taralae Bojai. An elf I made, an arcane archer. She befriended a part gold dragon male, and for some reason I can't remember how to spell his name for the life of me. I believe it was something close to Damion, or Darion (EDIT: Daen! It was Daen!)... Heh, but anyways. These two were the types that LOVED to play pranks on each other. Their friendship equaled out into some of the best RP days I can remember, along with Lain etc.. But they loved to change each others drinks into alcoholic beverages, then make fun of the other when they realized it a bit too late and was already tipsy. xD D used to change Taralae's skin into a polkadotted rainbow and it would make her so mad her cheeks would turn red, making her look like Teletubby gone wrong. xD Those were the times, let me tell you. And Rammie always helped out..
But, I would really like to hear some of you guys memories or things that happened that you always look back and smile, or laugh at. I'm hoping this will help lift the recent veil of tempered threads and comments that have been about.
After all, I like it better when everyone is smiling. n_n

Oh this thread has promise! *grins* So...favorite moments in ISRP history.
Well Mine has to be a recent one, well withint the last twelve months kind of recent. My character was sitting in the crossroads (No I don't remember which one at the time. I have over 50 so sue me ) when Bhryn and Xanto showed up. B was at the rather begining stages of her pregnancy...meaning basically she was moody as all heck. Xanto had ticked her off some how, some little incident or another it was really very very minor, and she started ranting. And when she rants, she uses her hands to motion while she's talking. Well at the time she had a mug in her hand and had a pretty firm hold on it. So...wasn't Xanto surprised when the mug seperated from it's handle and ended up knocking him out cold!
I've got tons more great little ISRP moments. I really can't call them favorites because when I do come on I enjoy myself. Honestly there have only been a few minor times where a player has decided to have an issue with me and what I do and taken it to far, but thats few and far between which is good. I kinda regret the fact that I don't come on chat as much anymore......but there are reasons for that I suppose.
The various Evil Clone storylines, AKA The Crisis of Infinite ISRPs - Evil Dontellas, Extra-Creepy Darkmoors, and folks levelling entire castles makes for good TV.
Every interaction between Thanriyon/Trelack/Nevine. Ever.
Warren breaking Jaya's nose and trying to implode him.
Every interaction between Rajak and Kyra. Ever.
Orchid pouring holy water on or into the various drinks of the Undead.
The occasional explosion of pure silliness, when it didn't overload the room (pies, Edwin and Aesynil's paint and water balls, color changing, so forth).
But really, while it's broad, the Balls, Galas, and Dances that we used to see all the time.. because of the massive show of creativity on the part of every ISRPer in crafting their costumes/formal wear, the creativity on the part of the Magi in bringing the setting to life... and the three hours where folks open up and branch beyond their usual RP group, get along and interact with (mostly) the whole, and show a general interest and spark beyond the hum-drum of daily RP Life.

What Wren said.. verbatim. With one addition.
Letters from Jaya.. and the evolution of dynamics found therein.
also another one of my fav's was with mayu and erona with the whole winter ball. Mayu was deading of laughter because erona couldnt stay on her feet while on the ice and ended up in many odd postions in the process >.> it was alot of fun. but mayu wouldnt let her crawl so she keep falling. When it came time to leave they both fell when they exit the ball xD it was quite funny to watch.
what was even worse with that when infi step on the twig was kyoshi couldnt remember what was going on before that point
Kyoshi is such an idiot, its hilarious. i think i would take up too much room to tell of all her funny stories.
Cameroth scared the crap out of poor Infi though because he told her to come out and she didn't know what to do... and then ions later Kyoshi and Cameroth are married!? they raised a problem child but Venctress has too many to count as well. . .
So many good times in the ISRP. A memory pops up of one of my first interactions with Rajak and Bhryn. This was back when Bhryn was still single, and Rajak was attempting to talk her into going away with him for the weekend. Rajak was describing an floating island 'paradise', trying to coax Bhryn into joining him there. I then, on a whim, chimed in with,
"The views are absolutely stunning; it's a paradise. You really should take an opportunity to visit the place when you are able. Just make sure not to anger the natives, or the next thing you know, you'll find yourself being tossed right over the edge..."
Now, that isn't 'exactly' how I phrased it, but close enough. The comment elicited a 'shh'-ing from Rajak and a muttered, "I'm trying to get her to come -with- me..."
And then there was the time I showered someone (I think his name was Derek, Erek, something like that) with confetti after he got into an argument with Beegee and had a mop bucket dumped on him. Good times, good times...
Oh! And then--
Fowai's Player: Alright, Fowai. That's enough. No need to retell -every- memory, no matter how amusing.
Fowai: Really? I thought forums were a place where people told and retold stories about their meaningless lives, and everyone rushed to read them...
Fowai's player: True, but let's not contribute to the growing fad.
Fowai: Aww, I -never- get to join in with the latest fad...I'm -always- behind...*sigh*...alright, let's go. I think these parachute pants are made of wool or something, because they're starting to make me itch...

I have to say the old Sir Dieterich days. Back when he and Anondra had just met and he was friends with Sky. Others that were around back and large parts of his storyline included Krylos, whose player dropped out about a year ago, Ivellios and his flying griffon Xanaphia (played by Krylos's player as well), Amaya, and the old wizard Tharanak. Those were good times!
one of my favorie memories, is just before thunder and lain got married both of them and some of thier friends went out into the garden and had a big drinking party..it was awesome as hell!!
I would have to say my favorite moment was back on WotC. Ann and Bhryn were camped out beside FeeGee, each with a bag of conjured 'Roasted bunny snouts'. Mildly buzzed from a recent trip to visit FeeGee's family in Oerth, the snouts didn't last long in their little packages as they managed to get flung at random passerbys, accompanied by phrases such as, "We only snout those we love!" and "Shoo! Before she summons the rest of the rabbit."
And ya'll think today's stuff is wild . . . We were uncontrolled back in the day.
ANd I have an Addendum from my brother . . . I'm never typing while I'm on the phone with him again.
His favorite memory is when Donny taught Shen his first little bit of Arcane magic in the form of Summon SNack Food 1: Ice Cream. And the there in Emporium wide chase that ensued as he and Nevine kept said dessert from the pregnant Donny.

This is my BFG. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My BFG is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it, as I must master my life. Without me, my BFG is useless. Without my BFG, I am useless. I must fire my BFG true, I must shoot straighter than my enemy, who is trying to frag me. I must frag him before he frags me. I will. I swear this creed: my BFG and myself are defenders of my team, we are the pwners of my enemy, we are the saviors of my life. So be it, until my enemy is blown to bits.

Ok ok this was my absolute favorite thing. Imreis and Phrin Kilsek. These two loved to hate each other. great friends but hated to admit it. I think the best one was - a full tavern night and the two were at the bar arguing with each other as usually. The kind of racial slander towards each other and poking fun at height, size, weight ect...someone who i cannot remember who butted in and said they should stop arguing. Without missing a beat Phrin turned towards him, looked back to Immy and says "Did you hear a goblin fart?" then right on cue the pair precedes to arguing again like nothing ever happened. It was daily like that well more so nightly but anyways, those two getting together was so funny i would be giggling for hours.
My second favorite time would have to be after Imreis commented to a friend how he suspected BG was in love with him (Back story to this, for months BG always double ordered Imreis even when he didnt do it to anyone else) well...Sooooomeone who shall remain nameless decided to start ordering for Imreis giving him about everything on the menu, leaving a mildly paranoid Immy who to this day still thinks the golem is in love with him

You know I just have to put one of Baalodias in here.
When Jazzmyn and Baal were having one of their monthly 'wrestle matches' that usually end up with someone half dead and the room virtually destroyed. Jazz had coiled Baal up in a bunch of tentacles to restrain him, and he started shooting fireballs at her. She up and chucked him into the river, he could only spurt out little flicks of smoke. I was snorting the whole time through it. A very proud moment for our Jazzmyn.
Another one of Nicholaus, Incara Laurana, Jazzmyn, and eventually Jack Ketch.
Remember, Cara? When Nich just ate some wanderer on opium and he was feeling haaappy? *snickers* They gave him a new pair of pants made of ... scarfs - the scarfs having come from a really lame magic trick Jazzy performed, but Nich was -thrilled- about it. He was all modeling his new pants up on a chair, so proud of himself. Another scene I was cracking up every five minutes, and smiling every time I flicked back to the window.
When Crush sneezed that nasty glob of snot in Zeliphia's hair, she freaked right out and started flailing her hands, Bari trying to calm her down. I forget how long she sat there with Crush 'combing' his nose goodness out of her locks... eewww..
This is great stuff, good to see some old names nad memories!!
I remember when I was PMing a WizO (before I became one myself) with my first character ever, Aylah back on Wizards. I don't recall the WizO's name but he also played Mercury Eversun and Kilestdon. ANywho, I was teasing him in ooc PM, trying to get him to do something for me and so I did sort of an IC post of Aylah flashing him. Well...needless to say I somehow managed not to send the /tell and it was broadcast to the entire room!!
Also the story of the golem's broken heart, seeing the WizO's take part en-mass with the storyline was great...we should do something like that again!
Also, again back on Wizards, I had BeeGee use someone's hair a few times as his mop! Once it was another WizO...let me see...what was his name... WizO Lenander!! He was so stuffy, it was a riot!!
ahh..good times...
