A little about myself, I'm a college student and work part time. That means that, during the day, I'm a tad bit busy. I sometimes log in just to check posts but that doesn't always mean I have enough time to make a post (so if you see me online but get no response, don't worry, I see you). Vel as a writer: [list] [*] I consider myself to be a casual to low-advanced writer with roughly five years of roleplaying experience under my belt. I like writing out my character's thoughts, the environment around them. You will never get a one-lined respone from me. [*] I am fine with mature scenes, whether they're sexual or violent or just full of swear words. Because of this, I would like my partners to be over the age of 18; this just makes me feel more comfortable. [*] FxF pairings are particularly what I'm craving at the moment, but I can write MxF and MxM pairings as well! I can also write as male or female characters. [*] I prefer to roleplay through PMs than threads but if you feel more comfortable in threads, then that's cool with me. [*] I prefer to make character sheets (just name, age and an appearance). [*] Sorry, but I don't do fandoms unless I list them (since I really don't know enough). [/list] What Vel is looking for: [list] [*] Like stated before, someone over the age of 18. [*] Someone who can write a few paragraphs (not much, but something that is enough for me to make a response to). As long as you don't respond with one sentence, we're good. [*] Someone who's fairly active? I'm not looking for ten responses every day but I'm looking for more than just once a week. If, for any reason, you need to drop the roleplay then please tell me! [*] Please be flexible with characters! Don't just play one specific character, pull in side characters if needed. [*] Be legible. Obviously mistakes happen but I need to be able to follow along with what you're writing. [*] Contribute! Have fun! I don't want to have to form the whole plot (or vice versa. If you feel like you're just making the plot yourself don't be afraid to ask for input). [*] Don't control my character. I understand little gesture to move the post along but don't fill out my character's responses. Also, please write in the third person. First person roleplaying makes me uncomfortable. [/list] [center][img]http://i.imgur.com/lwR2BJH.png?1[/img][/center] Onto the good stuff, which is probably what everyone went to first. Pretty much all of these pairings and plots are open to changes and to any type of pairing (FxF, MxF, MxM). Unless a spot is [u]underlined,[/u] I'm fine with playing either role. The more * that follow something, the more interested I am. [hider=Pairings][list] [*] [s]Prince(ss) x Prince(ss)[/s] [*] Prince(ss) x Servant/Commoner/Any ** [*] Roman Gladiator x Royalty ** [*] Percy Jackson OC [*] Pirate x [u]Captive[/u] * [*] Robin Hood style roleplay *** [*] Outlaw x Farmer/Saloon Girl/Any * [*] Any twist on Disney *** [*] Gangster/Gangster's Child x Cop [*] Gangster x Undercover Cop [*] [s]War-themed/Soldiers (whether it be same side or enemy)[/s] [*] Teacher x Student [*] Vampire x [u]Hunter[/u] [*] Maximum Ride OC [*] [s]Sentient Robot x [u]Human[/u][/s] [*] God(ess) x Worshipper/Human [/list][/hider] [hider=Plots] [hider=The Wild Man *****] [i]inspiration: Tarzan (more mature) gender pairing: any preferred role: explorer[/i] On a trip to visit relatives, his parents's ship got stuck in a storm and crashed onto an unknown land covered in thick trees and vines. A jungle. They built themselves a small home and eventually had a child but, one dark night, a pack of leopards attacked the home and killed the parents. The child was almost killed when a lone gorilla saved the day. The human child grew up with the gorillas, learning their language and behaviors to the point where he was just like one of them. When the man was older and practically king of the jungle - since the alpha gorilla is actually the king - a ship docked on a clear part of the coast. Crates and crates were unloaded along with three people: a strong, build man with a cold expression, an eccentric older scientist and his curious daughter. The three made camp in the jungle and planned to stay for three months to explore the activities of the gorillas. When the "ape man" (as he is called) crosses paths with the female explorer, he realizes that there are creatures just like him out there. Can the two break the language barrier? Will the man be civilized or will the woman become one with the jungle? What happens with one member of the group has malicious plans for the island and its inhabitants?[/hider] [hider=This is Halloween **] [i]inspiration: Nightmare Before Christmas gender pairing: any preferred role: n/a[/i] You've learned that holidays are simply folklores that the card companies made popular so that they could make money. Their origins aren't that clear, simply a tale that somehow gets celebrated as the years go on. Every major holiday, contrary to popular belief, is run by creatures in another world. Santa Claus does exist, in his own realm, and prepares for Christmas each year with his elves. The Easter Bunny inhabits another world and readies the millions of brightly-colored eggs that will be hidden for children to find. Even Halloween, the holiday of horrors and treats, is run by the citizens of Halloween Town. The citizens are all sorts of creatures that no human would want to run into in a dark alley. The mayor, Jack/Jacqueline Skellington is in charge of making October 31st the scariest it can be. [i]Okay that's honestly just the background information because I can see this going in many directions. Maybe a human finds themselves in the forest of the realms and chooses to go to Halloween Town. Do they stay? Do they run? How does the mayor react to a human in their world? Or perhaps a human accidentally comes home with a creature after Halloween is over, leaving the mayor (once more) stuck with what to do? Or maybe the mayor is out of ideas and finds the perfect human to help them conjure up even darker ideas than what has been created in the past.[/i] [/hider] [hider=Dear Theodosia ***] [i]inspiration: Hamilton, of course gender pairing: MxF or FxF preferred role: n/a[/i] 1777, two years into the American Revolutionary War. The Americans are fighting hard to win their independence but a lack of supplies and weak leadership makes it hard to gain any ground. The King of England shuttles troops and generals by the boatload to America in hopes of stopping the rebellion. The Americans are split into two sides: the Patriots and the Loyalists. Patriots fight for freedom, for independence from England. Loyalists still swear their loyalty to the King and try their best to convince their neighbors to do the same. In the midst of the revolution, a Patriot falls in love with a woman, a woman who seemed unscathed by the war. The only problem? She's married to a British Captain. Will the two try and fight not only for the revolution, but for their love? Will they be able to hide the affair or will they be discovered?[/hider] [/hider] Well, that's about it. I'll probably update this every now and then as my interests change. If any of these pairings strike your interest, please [i]send me a PM![/i]
