Hi there,

I've recently taken a hiatus from writing due to commitments at work, things are still somewhat hectic but I'm hoping to ease myself back into roleplays with a one on one story in an original setting that I've been thinking about for the last month or so.

The setting is a post-apocalyptic world which is mostly covered in desert, society has begun to rebuild but is still fairly backwards. The setting would almost be like a western but with some more modern technology (think WW2 era), things like motor vehicles, more modern firearms and other things of that nature. I would like to play a character who is past his prime who is recruited by another, much younger, character based on his previous reputation. This was initially inspired by westerns like True Grit and Unforgiven but I recently saw Logan and it scratched the same itch in a lot of ways so I include that as a more recent inspiration.

Basically it would be a story set on the road in this gritty and harsh world, about the characters and how they develop as well as the people they meet along the way. I've got the general feel of the world set in my mind but the intricate details can be fleshed out with a partner, I enjoy world building and collaboration so feel free to provide ideas of your own. The worst that will happen is that I will suggest something different.

In terms of style of writing, I write third person, past tense and I would like my partner to do the same. I write at least a few paragraphs per post, more for intros or longer/slower scenes so something around that for my partner would be appreciated. While I don't mind romance in roleplays normally I'm not sure there will be a place for it in this particular story so if that's what you're looking for this won't be for you unless you can really convince me otherwise. There will be adult themes though (violence, language, general darkness) so I want my partner to be 18+.

I prefer emails for writing and discussing things so contact me on thelibertine12@gmail.com
