Hello all, Athena here. I'm a 24 year old she/her (ew) from the Midwest US. I'm mostly a novice when it comes to literary roleplay, but I do a lot of casual writing. I write a lot of short stories, one offs, and otherwise short scenarios and go back and forth on adding to them when I feel in the mood. I enjoy a variety of genres, my favorites probably being High-Dark Fantasy (lots of magical elements, the setting oppressive and sad and full of terrible people) and Sci-Fi. I'm not only interested in those, but that's where my focus tends to be! I like to focus a lot on interpersonal dynamics and character interaction over a broad overarching story. I live for interesting character relationships, dialogue, and tackling complex issues. I love when characters get philosophical, political and everything in between, even if those views don't necessarily reflect my own. I love interpersonal tensions and when characters disagree and fight, but I also like to have said characters grow and become closer for it. I like out of character interactions too. Rather, I don't really mind it, but I like to keep it very separate from the actual roleplay. If I see OOC parentheses I'll probably say something and make a stink about it ^^’ I'm not entirely sure what all to put, but I look forward to joining the community :>
