Well friendo, allow me to assist.

First off, most folks put their character profiles in a blog on their profile. kinda like this. It makes it easier, so when you need to provide character info in an RP you can just link back to it as it comes up in the rps. It also keeps the RP from getting cluttered up with character info anytime a new person jumps in. Formatting of your characters profile is largely up to you so don't go crazy if you don't want to structure like I did mine and if you don't know where your blogs are, play around on your user profile, you'll find it.

If you don't know how to put up links, just ask and I'll explain as best I can.

Now the format of most RPs are pretty simple however we do have a few ques that we use around here. Most out of character discussions are kept inside of parentheses (like so), to keep confusion to a minimum.

If you want a private RP, we usually put the name or list of names of the participants in parenthesis in the titles. Kinda like this:

You can also make an open invitation for people to join by doing the same except with "Open RP" instead of giving names.

The post that's used to open the RP is usually used as a descriptor for the scenario that is happening in the RP, to give other people an idea of what they're getting into.

And finally, the person who opens the first page of an RP (there's a post limit of 500 posts and a lot of RPs go way over that so multiple pages are frequently needed.) Is the usually the de facto Game Master and is responsible for keeping the story of the RP going and RPing most of the NPCs.
