As Above, So Below is a play-by-post RPG based on the Dragon Age series of video games. Play takes place during the events of Dragon Age: Inquisition as our characters navigate cutthroat politics, tumultuous relationships, and the looming threat of a sky torn asunder. Set in a world of dark fantasy, we explore mature topics while crafting thoughtful and compelling plots focusing on OC stories with minimal canon involvement. We're an advanced RP for those who are comfortable with creative writing. 18+, 3/2/2, Faceclaims optional.

I'm also a long-time pen-and-paper RPG player! Things translate pretty well between that kind of setting and this one, so long as you're okay playing things a little more fast and loose and leaving the dice behind.
I'm shy in new places (like here), but I love to rp and just haven't really gotten to do it in so long.
Games. Games?
It's hard to choose favorites so I'll go with whats gotten me recently. God of War is fantastic. I've beat the story but I am trying to 100% it. Stardew Valley is always great. I've been doing co-op with a friend. Also Yokai Watch 2 is scratching that Pokemon itch for me. I'm super hooked.
As for the Dragon Age rating we seem to be doing...

For me it goes: DAO > DA2 > DAI
I guess I'm a sucker for clunky controls.
Hiya! As I think most people on here can attest, I've been playing Stardew basically nonstop for a week and a half lmao.

Hello Hello!
Some of you have already seen me on the Discord, because I dived into that and neglected to introduce myself properly. So, here we go. My name is Summer Rain (and before you ask, tis not a profile name, tis my actual first and middle name). I live in Henderson, Nevada, which yes, is right next to Las Vegas. I am eighteen years old (turning nineteen on October 12th, the Libra that I am). I live with my grandmother and my mom (though the latter only started living with us recently, and I will admit I wish she wasn't), and my two cats, Sammy and Bandit, who you can see in the Pets thread.
So... Some things about me:
- My favorite color is Green. - My favorite food is Pizza, but I'm also a huge fan of Chinese food and BBQ ribs... I'm clearly not a healthy person. XD - I am a Cis Female with She/Her Pronouns. - I am Bisexual, and have a love for Bisexual or Gay characters.
- I set very intense gaming goals: Like 100% playing Skyrim 9 times to try it with every race, playing the Dragon Age series 24 times to do all the romances several times with different races and genders, playing the Mass Effect series 21 times to do pretty much the same thing... You get the point, haha. If there are options and romances, I will play a game I love over and over until I experience everything. And if you're interested, I've outlined my Dragon Age playthrough set up in a google doc here: docs.google.com/document/d/1yaLx-MTRFQBE06vXux4ef0wevKhVM-2_UTMtAgUgik8/edit?usp=sharing and a Mass Effect playthrough set up in a google doc here: docs.google.com/document/d/1JQMnxLAEJDbofqkiOQOSxfckuPulgiBm4VUskpOyoV0/edit?usp=sharing . XD I wasn't joking. The Skyrim one is currently in the works.
- I have a Youtube Account! I post non-commentary cutscene videos of my gameplay from certain games like Dragon Age, Mass Effect, Tomb Raider, etc. It's mostly for my own enjoyment, but when I get a better mic and recording software, I might be able to do proper Let's Plays. So... We'll see. My Facebook, Youtube, and Twitter are linked on my OOC Account! I never use Facebook or Twitter but... you know, social media craze and all.
- I love horror movies... but I suck at being able to watch them without fear, which is sort of the point. XD And I cannot play horror games to save my life. Like I'm currently pushing myself through the original Bioshock- and it causes so much cringe and heart racing.
- I am a hopeless romantic! I adore romance in roleplay, and my characters will be so loving if they get the chance to romance someone.
Speaking of my characters...
So far, I am making a male Dwarf archer named Hirlen Weymi. I like to make the most uncommon thing possible, and that was him. If I make a second character, it will probably be a female Qunari mage. So... Look forward to them! XD
Anyway... enough about me, I babble too much. I'm so excited to roleplay with you all! <3 Once I kick myself to finish Hirlen, that is.

Heya,
You can call me Jonny, I am in my late twenties and I am not a native english speaker. So if you catch me using weird english IC let me know so I can improve, OOC I don't really try to be perfect...
Anywayyys, I've been roleplaying online (in english) since I was about 12, but it was a few years ago now, excited to get back into it!
I like fantasy, sci-fi and all that nerd shit. Whenever I play some sort of rpg (video game, forum, tabletop, whatever) I manage to choose the biggest race available and the punchiest class available so you can all look forward to my Qunari warrior lady
I live in Sweden (moving to the UK by the end of this month) so I probably won't be online a lot when you all are
And my fav DA game is 2222222. Just you know, THE CHARACTERS MAN. Just chillin around in your town messing around with shit, that's my thing. Origins and dai, idk, I think I prefer dai, again bcs of characters. Other games I like, Witcher (3!!!), Persona, GTA, Zelda, mass effect, etcetc
