[hider=Confessions of a Yandere] "I have always watched you from a distance... Admired you from afar. I'm sure you hardly remember the day we first met... but I could never forget it. I'll never forget such kindness. So why do I hold back?! Pathetic, I know, that I can never muster the courage to address you. But how does one go about approaching a perfect being? I get anxious in your presence... When you look my way... I feel alive. So I've watched you with your friends. I have seen the type of people you've dated. I've seen you experience heartbreak and I've seen you cry. And it infuriates me! No one deserves you. I'll always protect you from their destructive imperfections. No matter what it takes.

Don't reject me... Say you love me." This can be dark, naturally. Though, I'm willing to take a lighter and comedic approach to this. This can be slice of life, run of the mill high school/University setting or Fantasy settings/elements. There can be supernatural element: Maybe the Yandere is a Ghoul or has spirits/demons. Or a combination thereof. All gender pairings are welcome, one to two spots are open. I will play either role once (I will play Yandere in one, the Yandere's interest in another). Of course, personality may vary - we could have a socially awkward yandere. We may have a charismatic yandere (Sociopath, anyone?) Heck! We might even have an interest that takes advantage of the yandere! I would like to make a disclaimer: I don't often play such characters as this, being so dark and mentally disturbed. However, I obviously want to try! I take constructive criticism well. I want to improve my skill playing an array of characters, and this is one! Having romance/their single relationship the sole focus can get boring. So we'll discuss an actual plot together! As well as add other characters to spice it up. * I'm not one to romanticize abusive /twisted relationships (Okay... Maybe that's what it looks like). In real life, it is unacceptable, obviously. [/hider] [hr] [hider=Going Through Changes] One character has always dreamed of being a vet. When he finally becomes one in his small town, he finds himself restless. Maybe he becomes bored or lacking clients. He's wanted more out of life, but the option never arose. Finally, he hears from a friend that a big timer businessman in the city wants a live-in vet. It seems weird... but the pay is good and the rent is free. Only, he didn't expect the businessman to be the animal he's supposed to take care of... Why the shapeshifter needs care can be discussed. Maybe he has a life threatening illness, and in this weakened state, he frequently reverts to his original form. He can't have everyone knowing of his species or condition, so he needs a private caretaker. Perhaps he is cursed. Maybe later, the curse is lifted somehow. (I think I would prefer this be Yaoi/M//) Only accepting one more for this at the moment. Of course, we can discuss more of a plot. Of course there will be other antics. Of course we'll include side characters (perhaps family that is also cursed and need help).

Consuming humans for their own survival. An urge that cannot be tamed no matter how they fight it... Despite their own morale, they have succumbed to their hunger. A despicable life... Criminalized in their city, they can never come to light for who they truly are. So they pretend for the masses. Living amongst humans... Sometimes it seems justifiable, they can be just as cruel and destructive. Pests... Other times, though. Some humans give hope for humanity. "It's these people that make me hate myself. What I am... what I do." Will this ghoul be found out? What will they do? [/hider] [hr] [hider= The Other Side... ] What comes to mid when you hear the term: Grim Reaper? A skeletal, scythe toting demon donning a hooded black cloak? Someone hungry for your soul? Lurking... waiting to snatch your life. Well I'll tell you one thing... "It just isn't fair! We reapers get a bad rep..." For millennia, humans have fabricated their own ideas of the unknown. How did you come to exist? Where do you go when you die? All the unexplained, is met with theory. Sure... I guess it's a reasonable idea. You associate death with unpleasant things, it's only natural you attach such a negative image to the reaper. Well let me set the record straight! Think about it? Once you have severed the bond to the living realm... You're all alone when. Your friends can't take the journey with you. Your life, your past decisions, friends, family, belongings... it's all left behind. And that's where we come in, the ferryman and ferrywomen of the spirit world. We don't take your life... we only serve as a guide to the other world. We protect and lead lost souls, in their time of need. While they mourn their own death, when they feel hopeless and alone... Us reapers provide comfort. Whether the person returns to the living world (perhaps with new powers), remains in limbo, goes to the other side or whatever. We can decide. It isn't much of a plot, we can come up with something more in depth. [/hider] [hr] [hider=Bounty Hunter [W.i.P]] Not a full idea yet, but I would love to explore a world with bounty hunters. A group of hunters that come together with one goal in common. [/hider] [hr] [hider=Save Yourself [W.i.P]] [img] https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/76/da/ca/76dacabb620a2e68165292e1f5a6281a.gif[/img][/hider] [hr] [hider=Fantasy Idea] [img]http://static.tumblr.com/f43438cf0017ef98bdf5bbc5017582dd/gxolnap/LC5mo8om5/tumblr_static_tumblr_m8prp9mmr21rdhzyqo1_500.gif[/img] [i]It is said that we are born with an unseen red string tied to out pinky finger and the end is tied to whomever you are fated to be with. However, the thread is tangled, twisting this way and that, making it difficult for a pair to come together.[/i] The idea in mind is inspired by the Chinese myth of the Red String of Fate, as well as a Fandom (Anime/Manga) called Loveless. However, you do not need prior knowledge of either. We can establish our own rules and build the world on our own, and I can answer your questions should you have any. In this particular world, there are units that are made up of two people: A fighter and a sacrifice. They share a soul bond and become capable of engaging in spell battles against other units. [hider=What is In a Name?] In the Loveless world, certain individuals are born with a name that reflects the true nature of their soul or fate – and somewhere out there in the wide world is someone who shares that name. People who share the same name are connected mentally, emotionally, and spiritually: they’re essentially soulmates (although it need not make them romantically involved). Each Unit has a 'True Name' that the pair shares which represents them as a whole. [/hider] [hider=What is a Fighter?] The Fighter of a unit engages in spell battles against other Fighters. Only a Fighter can begin a Wordspell Battle and they are the only ones who can cast spells during that Wordspell Battle. Both in and out of battle, Fighters are bound to follow the orders of their Sacrifices. Although they may not realize it, Fighters innately seek to follow the will of their Sacrifices. Fighters without orders tend to hesitate, which weakens the pair. A Fighter needs to obey the orders of their Sacrifice in order for the bonded pair to reach their true potential. While a Fighter may disobey or disregard the orders of their Sacrifices, this causes deep feelings of guilt and anxiety – to the point where a Fighter would honestly believe that disobeying their Sacrifice is a threat to their livelihood. Fighters need to obey their Sacrifices as much as they need to eat or sleep. [/hider] [hider=What is the Role of A Sacrifice] A Sacrifice takes the damage for their Fighter during a Wordspell Battle. This damage often takes the form of Restrictions, which are lengths of cloth, leather, or chains that tighten painfully around a Sacrifice’s body. Restrictions steal away a Sacrifice’s concentration and strength. If a Sacrifice receives enough damage, they could very easily suffocate to death beneath their Restrictions if their Fighter does not surrender the fight. A Sacrifice also has the right to command their Fighter both in and out of battle. If a Sacrifice does not command their Fighter, their Fighter will be hesitant and unsure of themselves in Wordspell Battles. Often, many Wordspell Battles in Loveless are dictated entirely by the Sacrifices! For a bonded pair to be truly effective, a Sacrifice must give clear, firm, and honest commands. [/hider] [hider=The String of Fate] If a Sacrifice finds themselves cornered, or in need of help, or they just want to be with their Fighters, they can summon their Fighters mentally and empathically through their mutual bond. No matter where the Fighter is, they will be able hear/feel this call and feel compelled to follow it. A bonded Fighter/Sacrifice may be able to visualize their bond as a string between the two of them and simply follow it to their partner. [/hider] [hider=Misc.] Some notes worth mentioning, trivia, restrictions, taboos and such: Fighting Solo: It is against a sort of mental societal norm for Fighters to do battle without their Sacrifices. However, while ill-adviced, it is possible. If a Fighter goes into a Wordspell battle without his or her Sacrifice, they will only be at half strength. They will also be vulnerable for whatever damage their (rather unscrupulous) opponent has in store for them. A Sacrifice will be able to sense whenever his or her Fighter goes into a Wordpspell Battle without them – and will in all likelihood come running. Unless, of course, they really hate their partner. Fighting for Another Sacrifice/Changing Partners: A Fighter cannot fight for another Sacrifice without first breaking the bond of his or her true Sacrifice and taking on the name of the new Sacrifice. The process is excruciatingly painful for the Fighter in question, as his or her name will “retaliate” against this new, forced bond. Wordspell Battles become excruciatingly painful, and their true name will often bleed during the battle. Even if a bond between a Sacrifice and a Fighter is broken, the Sacrifice will still be able to issue orders to the Fighter and the Fighter will feel the compulsion to follow them.

Feel free to ask any questions, make suggestions or what have you. I have several ideas for this. I would like to adds romance, a few twists, maybe a dark twist. [/hider] And of course, I would love to hear any ideas that you might have or would like to try out! If you think there is something that might interest, give it a shot! :) Welp!
