You should try to use more punctuations, because frankly your sentences are hard to read, and spacing it at key parts to not make it all a massive clump of text works too. Second, you should re-read what you've written if you are unsure of your spelling, and if its really bad you should use a word program with a spellchecker function. Its really not hard to first write your message in the word program, spell check it, and then copy and paste it (marking it all, then right clicking and chosing copy, or pressing ctrl+c. Then doing the same in the post window, except for paste command its ctrl+v) And finally, while I'm a big fan of the FMA manga and anime, I'm not too sure about an RP based on it, especially if your going to take elements from the canon and still exclude others (Like for example, it makes no sense Scar is part of it as he's a big part of the manga and anime.) Which brings me to another point, which itteration are you basing this off? The Manga or the Anime? Or neither? Its prety important seeing how different they are in terms of story. Sorry if I come off as rude, english isnt my first language so its not perfect, and I'm just trying to help ^^; Either way, write out a synopsis of the RP's story/start and I will think about wheter I would join then or not.

The former is usually of the electronic nature while the latter is usually composed of creative writing, narration, nerds and possibly D20. If you want to improve your spelling, may I suggest you switch your web browser to Firefox? It has a built in spell checker which is loads of help to me because my spelling "R teh suk". As twilight said, spill your whole idea. You are more likely to get help and interest in that manner. Just remember; Who, What, When, Where and Why. Wrap your idea up in some enticing proverbial wrapping paper and you are sure to grab attention.

Instead i'll say this: before you do start this RP, have a very good think about how to restrict powers and also the possibility of deviations from your chosen plotlines. From personal experience, anime RPs have the notorious habit of spiraling out of control for the slightest things. I very much doubt anyone on this site would create any overpowered ‘godlike’ characters, but please plan ahead and take into account the fact that everything may not go according to plan.

Normally I have maybe one or two really cool scenes in my head that I'd like to have happen. How we get there doesn't really matter, and what happens afterward doesn't really either. The freedom of RPing comes into play before and after those moments, and the real joy of writing (for me) is seeing those scenes come to life from the eyes of several different writers. If you want to do start a RP, chances are you've already got a particular scene or two in mind. Your job then is to create a basic setting where everybody can introduce their characters, and then the story starts rolling on its own. A source of conflict is also important. Having a common enemy or goal keeps the momentum going, and that's crucial to having a story that doesn't flop due to disinterest. As for the grammar, I wouldn't worry about it too much. There's always time to improve, and this forum is here to make learning how to write fun. You'll learn over time just by seeing how we write. Most of us are college students or older high schoolers, so there's a lot of talent and skill here. ;-) You'll figure it out. Although, I will say that paragraphs are your friends. People are more likely to read several small paragraphs than one big one. The human eye is lazy, and it's not likely to read a giant blob of text.
