VGRP Quest depicts the random adventures of an accidentally-abandoned group of RP characters as they search the Internet for their new home and unintentionally uncover a sinister plot. Started by Trilroy on May 15, 2005, and finished twelve weeks later on August 07, 2005, this RP became the first successful RP of the VGRP forums!

| Trilroy |
Even though VGRP Quest slowed down near the end, it worked very well. It was always meant to be a "work in progress" kind of RP, with many different people adding in their own randomness. Probably one of the funniest
bits of the randomness was the Pizza Ninjas. I still have no idea where I came up with that.
Trilroy started VGRP Quest, and thus was the first person to join. He wrote 38.14% of the story, doing so in twenty-two posts. |
| Armageddan |
Heh, VGRP Quest... I've never seen so many joins and dropouts in an RP and still see it come to a decent conclusion. Though it was disorganized and nobody seemed to know what we were supposed to do next, this RP was always fun to read. The writers knew how to keep things interesting, despite its occasional confusion.
Armageddan was the ninth person to join the RP. He wrote 12.69% of the story, doing so in ten posts. He now goes by the name Trauma Advocate. |
| Sojiro |
Well, even though I didn't finish the RP, it was still mostly fun. My favorite thing was posting that link on the page that led nowhere. I thought it was hilarious!
Sojiro was the third person to join VGRP Quest. He wrote 12.64% of the story, doing so in twelve posts. |

Even though I had always considered myself very poor at random humor, I decided to join VGRP Quest as a way to relax, unwind, and simply have fun (which was something I was lacking in the more serious RPs at the time). I was pleased as punch when some people complimented me on how funny some of my posts were, but I sadly hit a serious bout of writer's block halfway through, which really screwed things up for me. In the end, I enjoyed VGRP Quest immensely, and I feel it helped me learn some of the finer points of writing random humor.

Ah yes, VGRP Quest. My comments? Eh, well, it's just funny! I love how the good ol' VG group is back again for another zany adventure
through the wonders of our internet! Man, we need to get the old VGMusic group back together.

| 00 Agent Kid |
Well, it was a very original idea, I think. The huge amount of characters made it fun to read, and a lot of the randomness made it hilarious. At times, though, I thought that the random aspect was taken a bit too far. Overall, though, it was a fun RP with many participants.
00 Agent Kid was the thirteenth person to join VGRP Quest. He wrote 3.91% of the story, doing so in two posts. He now goes by the name Secret Agent Man. |
| Mavrickindigo |
Even though I was overwhelmed by all the RPs I was in, I tried to stay in VGRP Quest. For the time I was there I thought it was an interesting concept. Seeing that it is now in the Hall of Fame I can say I'm glad I helped in some way no matter how little.
Mavrickindigo was the sixth person to join the RP. He wrote 3.91% of the story, doing so in eight posts. |
| Elec |
Well, I didn't participate much at all, as I had joined too many RPs as I often do. However, it was a nice transition RP. I mean it was a clever idea for the characters to have to search for the new forums only to get into many crazy situations along the way. One of these days I'm gonna read the whole thing.

Well, while I was never directly involved in VGRP Quest (other than my coup de grace post), it's wacky sense of humor made it good for a number of hysterical laughs. The RP character's journey across the net provided some classic moments. My favorite has got to be when Trilroy uses Harry Potter to destroy Barney once and for all. Congrats to Trilroy, and many more happy RPs in the future to you. RP'DOKEN!!!

The story of VGRP Quest is based on an actual event. On May 10, 2005, the staff of
VGMusic decided to remove the RP Board from their forum system, and they set up
the VGRP forum on MyFreeBB for the RPers. The old RP Board was deleted on June 01, 2005, which is the date on which the story of
VGRP Quest begins.

VGRP Quest is the first RP on the Video Game Role-Playing Central forum to be completed. It is also the first random-humor adventure RP to be completed on VGMusic or VGRP since early November 2004.
