WVRP began in the year 2004 on April 13th. It was started by a bored 14 year old, two days before their birthday, looking for a little fun. While watching the movie Underworld, the creator decided they wanted to create their own RP site, based on the movie, instead of playing on others’. wvrp.proboards.com is the very first site where it all started. The rules were thin, barely existing. Originally, it was played on by select few, personal friends of the creator, the site altered from the basic Underworld but kept the theme. Until one day it was found and a flow of new members came in. Everyone on the site had little to no experience in writing or roleplaying. The new motto of the site was to learn from one another and enhance their abilities. It was a beginner site aimed at advancing members who wanted it.
For a year, the first site was in working order until finally came the day when there were enough members that the original site was beyond repair. WVRP moved to this current address, offering anyone from the first site to come and join. Since March of 2005, this site has remained. Activity became a wave, some seasons better than others. There were days activity would be near 80% and other days it would be barely 5%. Through time, the members stuck true and loyal, enhancing their abilities, always welcoming new members to come and learn. Since the middle of the year 2008, activity remained steady to at least 60%. Almost every member was becoming advanced and reaching the peak of their writing skills.
Now in August of 2009, the site is 5 years old, well known throughout the Proboards Community and one of the few, well aged, active RP sites around run by three Administrators. Plots keep flowing in and we aim to push for another year. So far it seems likely. WVRP has also, unfortunately, become an Advanced site for writers. It still welcomes beginners by all means, but only those willing to rise up to the higher ranks. Little to no skill is most certainly accepted, but such members must be ok with a push from fellow members to raise their skill.
WVRP is an original roleplay based on a mix of views from all sorts of mythology.
