Welcome to this peculiar search, a long standing interest of mine that I just now decided to attempt. I'm Serene, and I'm an avid world builder, plot shaper and character developer. More than that, however, is the fact that I absolutely love to make up cultures and lore, that absolute adoration to that part of writing bringing me to give you this opportunity today. I'm looking for a very specific type of story right now, set in a vague guideline that will hopefully permit us to explore and shape the world we create as we will. What you must already know, yet I will repeat here is that I want a multi-character and lore heavy adventure, that means that I want a plot where the narrative branches out and rejoin other lives as it will and where characters are made and let go constantly in an attempt to make as vivid and as amazing an epic we can create. Yes, you will be required to talk to me, and yes, this will be a longer post type of deal, where we pass at least an hour or two to write and plan ahead our posts. The good news is that I only require a few posts a week, every two to three days being an happy medium for this endeavor I think. Now, what am I looking for in term of concept, you ask? Well, am I glad you asked! The following are the elements and themes I would like to see in our collaborative piece: - I want us to create a tribe, with traditions, rites of passage and legends of all kind. - The world must either be rather primitive or the ruinous aftershock of the end of all civilizations, where nothing can ever be the same again. - I would love if we started with the immediate surroundings and reality of the tribe and spread out slowly over time to cover more grounds and peoples as the culture changes and the cast transform into another one completely. - I would love for us to use a legend-like format, with things being vague and full of hearsay as great deeds are done and as the ancient times get farther and farther away from memory. - I want action, adventure, character interactions and constant change, that it may be drastic or very subtle. - We will have to work together, from crafting the plot and world to make sure that every scene and action has at least some meaning in the great scheme of things. - This world of ours may have magic, it may have gods, but nothing is mandatory as far as the magical and spiritual aspect of this story goes and we will be talking about it to make sure that we are both in accord with what we come up on that subject before starting the IC thread. - Yes, I would prefer thread, but the darker parts of the story I can do if you swear you are both a fully grown adult and consenting to depiction of realistic violence and/or more heavy romance, I will be happy to play out more mature scenes in PMs. If you are not, I swear that I will find a way with you for this lack of mature content to not take away from the heaviness or deep emotions generated by the scenes not shown. If you are interested by my craving, please send me a PM, or say your thoughts and ideas publicly below. Thank you for your time, and good day!
