since all of my RPs are romances i feel i could make a really witty tinder joke right here but alas i'm too fucking stupid
anyway, here are some character ideas i'd like to explore. some of them come pre-loaded with some lore from old RPs, and some are just concepts or tropes that i want to crank up to 11 haha. please DM me if any of these spark interest!! even if there are things you might want to tweak, please reach out, as none of this is set in stone ^-^

Victorian/Regency era invalid vibes. probably a male character, though could be female. suffers from an unnamed condition causing general weakness and debility, frequent bronchial infections, fevers, and asthma. is housebound but has many interests. he is an accomplished musician, particularly violin but also piano; he enjoys drawing, especially botanical drawing and portraiture; and of course is an avid reader. he was once a very active socialite but most of his old associates have fallen off as his condition has worsened over time. usually written in his mid 40s or so, but flexible on age. would love a little spring/autumn romance action, but i also have dreams in my head of pairing him off with a tragic widow of his own age, or even someone working-class.
Victorian/Regency era, though early 20th century could probably work as well. usually has an alcohol problem to some degree or other. was dishonorably discharged from the military-- this, coupled with his frequent bad behavior, has become a permanent stain on the family name. he is earnest and passionate, loves to have a good time, and cannot get his fucking shit together. i enjoy pairing him with someone needy in whumpy type pairings to help redirect all that energy somewhere more productive lmao. this man could fall in love with literally anyone, i think. he's more complex than he might seem though and has plenty of trauma to bring to the table, especially relating to his deceased older brother.
i, um... would like to play someone (any gender) pregnant. very pregnant. the logistics are totally up for discussion. i am pretty flexible :3 i would prefer that there be some plot to this one as well. we can discuss further in DMs. <3
basically, i want to write as a person with a restrictive eating disorder. gender, time period, and setting can all be discussed. i will say that this topic is personal to me and my enjoyment of writing it is multi-faceted. i would aim for a portrayal that's somewhat realistic, but also frankly romanticized. i completely get that this is basically nobody's cup of tea, but i thought i would put it here as an option haha. i would also 100% be leveraging said disorder for drama and shit as well.
medieval fantasy, arranged marriage. his kingdom has been at war with its neighbor for so long that they've both forgotten how to be at peace. while trade routes are choked from one side, plague has stricken the other, and both kingdoms are being brought to their knees. the warrior king has been on the front lines, commanding his armies, for so many years that he's almost forgotten how to be a courtier. but the war finally ends, and the kingdoms agree to solidify their treaty with a political marriage between them. the warrior king is to marry the prince/ss of the enemy kingdom (YC), who has every reason to believe that MC is a monster. what YC quickly comes to realize is that while MC is indeed a ferocious warrior with many lives claimed, he also has the capacity for great gentleness and caring. ideally his betrothed would be just a tiny little thing (hello size difference) and maybe a little sickly/needy as a treat. the warrior king would have to readjust to life at court, stuff and things would happen. i think it would be fun to explore this adjustment period (which could take... a while) both to his new marriage and life at court. can be MxF or MxM.
