Hello, and welcome to my interest check! I’ve decided to come back onto the Guild after a 4 or 5 month hiatus. Figured I’d bull charge right in with an idea (hopefully, eventually ideas) that’s been bouncing around my brain for the past few days.
It seemed like every cause had a terrorist branch these days. Separatists and Ultra Nationalists and Insurrectionists and Religious Extremists and Economic Hitmen. Threats whose labels had lost meaning for the public at large. Multiple-death bombings were practically second-page news. Something needed to be done.
That “something” was the International Peacekeeping Task Force, the IPTF. Answering only to The United Nations, and completely impartial, the IPTF’s primary goal was to prevent and respond to conflict around the globe. This included assisting in and preserving diplomatic relations, fighting terrorism (in all of its forms), protecting civilians in times of conflict, assisting in “humanitarian conflicts,” like the overthrow of an oppressive regime, and things of the sort. Naturally, many folks didn’t like this approach to peacekeeping, and many civilians were afraid that the IPTF, so outside of national regulation, might overstep its bounds. Under immense pressure from the Superpowers, the UN reluctantly disavowed the Task Force. Every UN nation declared former IPTF members war criminals if they didn’t surrender themselves for a debrief.
That was four days ago. By now, all but two IPTF members have been retired, taken into custody, or killed. Those two remaining active members are our characters. They’ve survived this long by hiding out in a safe house, but the authorities are closing in.
(This will be a globetrotting adventure/action story, with romance as a welcome addition. If romance is present, and I sincerely hope it is, I ask that your character be female. My character will be male. However, if you don’t want romance, then I don’t give a hoot what gender your character is.)
Fandom RPing is something that I’ve done reluctantly up until now. I’m willing to give it a real go, this time around. However, I really don’t want to bring canon characters into this. OC”s all the way, here.
RWBY
The Division
Destiny
Dishonored
It’s a short list, I know, but fandom is unfamiliar territory, and I figured I’d stick to what I know best.
Here are some more generic romantic pairings that have either half-baked or zero plots behind them, at the moment. We’d have to hammer these out together.
University Teacher/Student
Short girl/Tall guy (I fuckin’ loved Toradora, alright?)
Coworker/Coworker (In an office setting in my head, but the job doesn’t matter)
Soldier/Soldier
Soldier/Civilian
Undercover Cop/Handler
Undercover Agent/Undercover Agent (I figure they’ll pose as husband and wife, because sometimes, cliche is fun.)
I’ll make this quick and painless.
I’m okay with smut, so long as you’re 18+. We can discuss specifics, but just know that if smut is included, I’d like it to be semi-plot-relevant.
If romance is present, and I sure hope it is, I really only do MxF pairings, with my main character as the male.
As for doubling and what not, just let me know what you prefer. I’ve got no strong opinions.
PM me, please. Or, if your heart is set on posting here, for whatever reason, mention me.
I’m not a massive stickler for grammar and the such, but please make it understandable. Furthermore, try to get out at least a paragraph or so, excluding pure dialogue scenes.
Well, that’s all she wrote. PM me, or something. I dunno. I’m tired, guys.
Also, if you want to RP with me but also hate everything I've outlined, or something, feel free to throw out your own ideas and such. I'll listen. Chances are, I'll even agree. I'm a fairly agreeable person, generally speaking.
