What you want helped with:
So I thought I brush up on my rp skills before I dive into battle and what not. I feel the next step toward the evolution of my skill will revolve on enhancing the beautification of my text, and maintaining this consistency throughout my writing.
I think I also want to lengthen my posts as well, but prevent it from becoming a boring wall of words; something I find myself doing alot.

To start off, we'll do a word listing exercise. I want you list as many useful adjectives, similies, metaphors, words and phrases which can create nice imagery in your text as you possibly can. I'll give you an example of what I mean.
- Veracious [Instead of truthful]
- Colossal [Instead of large]
- A field of white. [Instead of snow]
- As deaf as a doorpost [Instead of ' he/she/they was/were deaf]
- Wavering [Instead of waving]
- Its mighty structure [Instead of its big body; fairly basic]
etc. Basicly taking words and phrases beyond the norm so its more fashioned for this kind of formal writing. Which is the way you like to write. Try to come up with useful words which you can use in your writing and phrases which require more thought for the reader eg. The Field of White, isn't as blunt as ' The snow that lay on the ground ' . I hope you understand okay =]
