BBC Sherlock Fan Forum - Serving Sherlockians since February 2012 / Role Play Sign Up

**Posted by Sherlock Holmes** March 5, 2012 9:14 pm

If enough people sign up here who are interested, then I'll start our own Role Play where we can each post something in character and carry on the story etc...

This topic will be for people to register their interest and say which part they'd like to play. You don't have to have the character's name as your Screen Name here, although that would be quite cool too and make things easier so you could always sign up with a specific character name...

Well seeing as I'm the first to start it I get to pick first so I'm gonna be Sherlock, duh. That's not to say that other people can't be Sherlock too, because we can make up different scenarios and storyworlds that are separate from one another.

Well, I could give it a try beeing Irene Adler... I think that would be appropriate. But I'm not sure I can express myself well enough in English to do a good job here. Anyway, I think it would be funny to make an attempt

I'll be Molly!

I would love to be mrs Hudson ^^

Awesome...some great choices here guys!

We REALLY need someone to play John Watson, Moriarty, Lestrade, Mycroft, Donovan and Anderson.

**Posted by Jim Moriarty** March 7, 2012 11:23 am

Can I be Jim Moriarty,please?

**Posted by Sherlock Holmes** March 7, 2012 11:41 am

Well that would make sense!

**Posted by Davina** March 7, 2012 5:23 pm

Admit it...no one wants to be Anderson or Donovan do they!?

**Posted by Sherlock Holmes** March 7, 2012 5:30 pm

Lol, who would?! I'm sure you could make up some good stories with them though.

**Posted by BrandoMan13** March 8, 2012 9:47 pm

Well if it gets started, I would be honored to portray John Watson.

**Posted by Sherlock Holmes** March 8, 2012 10:08 pm

Awesome...we don't need many more people to get started now. We've certainly got all the essential characters at least...

If there's any chance for me to play my dream role as a German tourist at last ...you can have me!

**Posted by Sherlock Holmes** March 9, 2012 8:27 am

Of course! Minor roles are just as important too!

I'm very intrigued by RP and I'd like to give it a try. :D Is there any way I could do a short one with you, Sherlock Holmes, to see how it works exactly and if I like it?

I could be John.

Let me know!

**Posted by Sherlock Holmes** March 31, 2012 8:13 pm

Yeah sure. D'you want me to start one on here then and we can just have a little practice run or something? I've got a big long paragraph I wrote ages ago about Sherlock's return to Baker Street after Reichenbach but it's quite long and involved...so maybe I could just start a random one say set some time after Reichenbach once things have settled down? Or did you have anything particular in mind?

**Posted by Shenanigans** March 31, 2012 8:26 pm

Cool! I'm curious to see your long intro paragraph but it's up to you if you want to use it up in a practice run or not! ;D

A few questions:
Is RP dialogue only? (no internal insights from the characters?)

**Posted by Sherlock Holmes** April 1, 2012 3:25 am

No, it can include internal thoughts too, and descriptions of actions and scenery.

**Posted by Anthea_MI6** April 22, 2012 6:19 pm

Oh is this different to the other one?? If so I think I could do Lestrade... OMG!

**Posted by Sherlock Holmes** April 22, 2012 9:35 pm

You totally should! Good old Lestrade!
