Hello hello. I'm Ynys Afalon, and I'm brand spankin' new on this site as of this post, so please excuse any awkwardness as I get used to things around here. I figured it wouldn't hurt to start a search thread right away. My interests change pretty often, usually reflecting current plot cravings or hyperfixations, so don't be shocked if I'm always changing things around, haha.
What you can expect from me:
- First and foremost: fun! I'm here for a good time, and I want the same for my partners. The last thing I want is for our RP to feel like a job.
- 20 years of RP experience. Yup, you read that right: 20! I've been roleplaying since my early teens, with some breaks in between.
- Engaging responses that move the story along. I dislike post length requirements; I find they usually do more harm than good. But I promise to always give you something good to reply to.
- Enthusiastic worldbuilding, character development, and fun extras like pinboards and playlists.
- Transparency. If something isn't working for me, I'll tell you so we can work together to find what isn't gelling and fix it.
- Patience. Real life happens, and I'll never hassle you for replies. I may check in with you if it's been a while, but never to put pressure on you.
- OOC conversation. I love making friends with my partners, so if you're someone who is only here for business, we probably won't be compatible.
What I want from you:
- Be an adult. I'm only interested in roleplaying with folks 21 or older. I'm over 30 years old, so playing with kids is awkward and uncool for me.
- Initiative. There's nothing more disappointing to me than a partner whose posts are only reactionary and don't add anything to the story.
- Honesty. Tell me if something about our game isn't appealing, whether you want to fix it or just call it quits. I won't take it personally.
- Decent grammar and writing skills. I don't expect novellas or perfection, but creativity is a must.
- Tell me what you want. When you contact me, please have some idea of what you want to play, even if it's just one or two of my wordbank words or an OC you want to play.
What I do not want:
- Sexual content. I'm married and asexual, so I don't enjoy writing sex scenes. Fade-to-black is fine, as is sensuality, but the moment the clothes come off, the curtain drops.
- Abusive situations. Our characters can have abuse in their backstories, but I will not roleplay abusive relationships.
- Infidelity. This is an absolute, immediate dealbreaker.
- AI and plagiarism. Original content only.
- M/F pairings. Just not my jam, sorry.
- Most fandoms.
Wordbank:
craving! | not looking
gods and prophets | hurt/comfort | ghibli-inspired/cozy fantasy | mutual pining | reincarnation | creepy/haunted small town | paranormal investigators | childhood friends to lovers | epic quest | haunted house | analog horror/lost media | found family | faeries | '80s-style dark fantasy | superheroes | retrofuturism | medieval fantasy | android companions | supernatural creatures | cults | political intrigue | dragonriders | twisted fairytales | accidentally summoning demons | liminal spaces | katabasis | royals/knights/mages | love found in exile | magic university | arcanepunk
Plots:
So Long and Lost
Keywords: knight/mage; arcanepunk; love found in exile; medieval fantasy; political intrigue
My character: the Mage
Pairing: M//
Notes: I am DESPERATELY CRAVING this one! I have a setting and a character for it. But please only ask for this if you intend to really sink your teeth into it.
Home Is Where You Are
Keywords: childhood friends to lovers; slice of life; mutual pining
My character: The Homebody
Pairing: M//
Notes: This one is pretty bare-bones, and largely depends on the characters we bring to it. Pretty much everything is flexible, and it can be as fluffy or as dark as we like.
I'm not sure how people prefer to contact each other here, so I guess either tag me or PM me?
