Welcome to Terra RP

Terra RP is a roleplay set in the year 2026. Technological advances have made it possible for you to fully immerse yourself in games, letting you experience virtual worlds as though you were there.

If you enjoy series such as Sword Art Online, .hack, Log Horizon, Fire Emblem, Grimgar of Fantasy and Ash, etc, this is the roleplay for you!

Story

In a world of virtual reality gaming, heavy regulation by local authorities ensure the safety of the players by restricting certain harmful aspects of full dive technology. Physical pain, mental trauma, and overexertion were among those deemed hazardous to its users, and their removal from games made full immersion an impossibility - for better or worse.

As the virtual reality consumer base grew sick and tired of the continuous regulation, rumors of an unregulated online game called Terrasphere started to circulate around the internet. According to these rumors, this game the game possessed none of the limitations imposed on others, providing players with the opportunity to fully immerse themselves in its world. But because Terrasphere was not a commercial product, the only way to access the game was to download the client from a seemingly glitched email sent by a unknown individual.

In response, Virtual Regulation and Safety Authorities around the world warned people not to connect to the game, claiming that it was dangerous. However, many people had already shared the client in secret and began to join the game in droves. When the game was finally outlawed, information and discussion about it started to take root on underground message boards and private networks.

Did you get an email from an unknown sender? Or did someone you know give you a copy of the illusive client?

Roleplay

What exactly is RP on Terrasphere like? For starter, TS is quite unique from many other RPs around. Below is a diagram explaining the two primary modes of RP we have.

Dice Roll
Most site events, story events, dungeons, world boss encounters, basically content ran by a Dungeon Master (DM) will have dice rolling mechanic in them. Dice adds a certain element of unpredictability to the stories, which is why we use them.

This is to ensure the result of combat is always fair and non-subjective.
Free Form
Most if not all of your RP threads outside of events will be without dice. This is because members don't have the authority to come up with their own dice mechanics and forcing their RP partners to follow their own rules.

Outside of events, members should work together to freeform RP and progress their own storyline together.
