Literacy Word-Guide/Tips

Hello, and welcome to my guide of role play AWSOMENESS, I want to inform you on the better ways to Rp, and being more Awsome at it. In this portion I will be teaching you about some good Rp Words and giving you some tips on rping literate.

Some good Rp words ^.^...................
Head         Body 
Temple                 Frame           
Cranium                Structure
Furto.                    Slender Apaul
Capsule
Crown
Neutous

Legs.              Eyes
Appendages.               Orbs
Stilts.                          Windows
Membranes.                 Irises
                                   Optics
                                    Visionaries/Opticals


Those are some good words to use floofs, but if you have some better ones it's all right

Now, for some tips to rping well. Hmm, well, let's first start with posting long paragraphs, you want to post longer paragraphs, with good wordplay, more Rps will want you in if you post longer, well played posts.
Next, use proper capitalization, and punctuation, if you want to be considered lit or at least close to it, try doing this more often, this also helps with grammar skills.
Spell right, sometimes we all have those moments when we misspell, I do it to sometimes, but, if you are unsure how to spell, something, ask a friend or a good Floof and they will assist you.
Be Active, being active is important, but it dosnt mean be on 24/7, you can at least try for three times a week right?

I hope these tips and words are helpful guys.

Signals/Calls For Realistic Rps

I have recently been questioned by a member to make a tutorial on realistic animal calls and signals, therefore here it is :3

So, let's start with wolf and canine calls........
Hyena- Cackle, a laughing like sound, used to interigate other animals such as lions.
            Growl- Defensive, warning like sound/signal.
           
Wolf- Howl, communication over long distances, saying 'This is my territory' or 'I'm searching for a mate'
        Snarl- A loud, warning signal givin to warn off attackers or intruders.
        Tail-Between-The-Legs- A sign of submission.
        Tail Erect- Sign of being dominant, in charge.
         On back- Submission signal, used to say you arnt dominant.

These are the two main ones.


Feline Signals/Calls
Chuff- A call of either great feeling, or for a mate.
Purr- Happy, excited call, mostly for showing great joy.
Tail Flick- Used to show that one is not happy, sometimes to show your not amused.
Claws Extended- Back Off Now, a warning signal
Hiss- a warning gesture, saying you will attack.
Snarl- on the verge of attacking, used as a warning.

These are some if the main ones, I'll try to add some more later on ^.^

Warrior Cat Rp Guide/Tips
So hello again! I'm here makeing you another tutorial for your enjoyment and learning

Shall we start?

Well first let's go over the warrior code, and the terms used by the warriors.
Warrior Code:
The Warrior Code is as follows:
Defend your Clan, even with your life. You may have friendships with cats from other Clans, but your loyalty must remain to your Clan, as one day you may meet them in battle.
Do not hunt or trespass on another Clan's territory.
Elders, queens, and kits must be fed before apprentices and warriors. Unless they have permission, apprentices may not eat until they have hunted to feed the elders. If any warrior or apprentice is sick or injured, they may eat while the elders, queens, and kits are eating.
Prey is killed only to be eaten. Give thanks to StarClan for its life.
A kit must be at least six moons old to become an apprentice.
Newly appointed warriors will keep a silent vigil for one night after receiving their warrior name.
A cat cannot be made deputy without having mentored at least one apprentice.
The deputy will become Clan leader when the leader dies, retires or is exiled.
After the death or retirement of the deputy, the new deputy must be chosen before moonhigh.
A Gathering of all four Clans is held at the full moon during a truce that lasts for the night. There shall be no fighting among Clans at this time.
Boundaries must be checked and marked daily. Challenge all trespassing cats.
No warrior can neglect a kit in pain or danger, even if the kit is from a different Clan.
The word of the Clan Leader is the warrior code.
An honorable warrior does not need to kill other cats to win his/her battles, unless they are outside the warrior code or if it is necessary for self-defense.
A warrior rejects the soft life of a kittypet.
And now for the terms of the warrior cats

Hey Hiden! Long time no see lol.

And must I say, very nice tutorial, I especially like the realistic wolf one. It helped me a lot!

Keep up the good work!

[Whisperingwaves]

Thanks Fury! Love the comments hun!

[StormClaws68]

I personally don't think a lot of your "good" words are good. May just be me though, not that fond of calling eyes "orbs" and legs "stilts" and yada yada and I'm not alone on that opinion. Think a lot of them fall under the category of "Wolfspeak" which is generally frowned upon.

Other than that, everything seemed fine, good job!
