Get from signup to your first roleplay in a few minutes. Here’s the path.

A new account

Sign up with your email or Google account. You’ll get a verification link to confirm your address. After you confirm, you’re ready to go.

Onboarding

After you register, a short onboarding flow walks you through:

  • Username — A unique handle others see (in profiles and mentions).
  • Name — Your display name (can differ from your username).
  • Avatar — Upload or pick an avatar so others recognize you.
  • Interests — Genres and topics you like. We use these so your Home feed and suggested roleplays match what you enjoy.

Home

On Home you’ll see:

  • Your roleplays — Roleplays you’ve created.
  • Your characters — Quick access to your characters.
  • Participating roleplays — Roleplays you’ve joined.
  • Featured roleplays — Highlighted roleplays you might like.
  • Genre sections — Roleplays grouped by genre or theme.

Use the sidebar and user menu to reach Characters, Roleplays, Search, Notifications, and Settings.

Use Search to find roleplays and people by name, genre, tags, or keywords. Filters (genre, status, applications open or closed) narrow the list. Search lives in the sidebar and header.
