Hello everyone!
My name is Radetzky and I’m here to win the Italian War of Independence write something great and fun. Although I’m not exactly new to this roleplaying business, my busy schedule (read: pathologic laziness) and real-life shenanigans kind of prevented me from enjoying as much I’d like to. However, due to all the quarantine and social distancing stuff been that’s going on right now I have been blessed with an unprecedented opportunity to return back to my favourite hobby and write something cool again.

Who am I?
1. I’m a guy in my early twenties (though I’m cynical enough to high-five with Kirkegaard as we laugh at that edgelord Nietzche and his Zarathustra nonsense) that is supposed to be studying at Uni right now.
2.English is not my first language, but I have been studying in England for past three years so believe I kind of managed to understand the basics of this infuriating chimera of languages.
3. As for my roleplaying skill, I might be a bit rusty and unpolished, but I’m still fairly certain that I can deliver a few paragraphs of something that won’t be offensively terrible and can play my role fairly well.
4. I will try to reply on daily basis, but as the life taught me “goals are just dreams on steroids” so I’m fairly sure that I will fail at this New Year resolution. That being said, I intent to post at least every second day and properly excuse myself whenever I won’t be able to post for longer period of time.
5. The last thing I feel like I need to mention is that I’m into a lot of obscure stuff. There could be whole libraries full of stuff I don’t know about sports, gastronomy or other more common objects of human interests, but when it comes to quirks of Habsburg monarchy (ultimate prove that there ain’t many tools of imperial ambition more powerful than incest), agricultural practices of Jivaroan head-hunters or intricacies of diplomatic funhouse that was 1920s Europe, I’m your guy! This projects a bit into my RPs as I’m huge on world-building and tend to add weird details here and there.

What am I looking for?
Short answer: Fun

Longer Answer: Fantasy and Sci-fi plots with fun character dynamics, maybe a bit more mature tone and hopefully some world-building.


Who am I looking for?
Without going into too many details (as I already did hehe) I’m looking for somebody that can reply a couple times per week. More would be great, since I love roleplaying with someone really enthusiastic, but I can’t reasonably ask for more than I give.

I expect you to write a few paragraphs of something action enough for me to be able to respond, preferably in English (but I can also work in Czech, Slovak, Polish, Slovenian and god-forbid Spanish). I’m an easily approachable lad, so I welcome OOC chats, brainstorming regarding the course of RP or you giving me an advice on what can I do to improve my writing, language or chances of having a decent life in the future of assured financial instability.

A few (underdeveloped) RP ideas:
Inquisitor and Witch: A merry tale of hypocrisy as Inquisitor must ally with his usual prey in order to rid world of greater evil, possibly Lovecraftian in nature (and I’m not talking about racism or horrible cat names).

Oracle and Hero: Though the Prophecy of Yc predates the birth of first men and its many verse became integral part of many human cultures throughout the history, nobody believes in its validity any more. Scholars laugh at its prediction of Mankind's demise, priests consider it heresy of their penultimate truths and nobles could not care any less. Yet there is one person that believes in it, the last Priest of Yc. He knows all the verses and can see all the omens. The end is near, humanity doomed. Yet there is one last chance, a flicker hope. One of the verses speaks of Great Hero, someone that will raise against the encroaching darkness and maybe, just maybe, prevails.

Human Noble and “placeholder race”: Ever since they were chosen by the God to lead masses of lesser men, it has been sole raison d’etre of nobility to conquer and rule. The War of Great Houses lasted for hundred and sixteen years. Thousands were killed in battle and thousands more died to plague and famine, but past cruelties are of no concern now. From the ashes of ruined petty kingdoms, duchies and counties rose the Empire. Nation that enslaved its weak and purged its weakest, nation that forged only the strong and is ruled by the strongest. With all Men united under single banner of black and blacker, their eyes turned to their neighbours; dwarfs, elves and other races for they were judged weak in the eyes of the Emperor. But not all humans are the same and even among the warlike and bloodthirsty nobility, there are some that wish for peace. Yet Imperial Army is a dangerous machine and stopping it will be anything but easy.

Disgraced Officer and Mercenary: He had it all. Blue blood in his veins, famous ring to his name, uncanny luck in cards and somewhat functional brain his head. His career in military should have been stellar, few scraps with unruly peasants, few battles fought from commander’s tent and pockets full of loot and misdirected army funds. It was not like that though. His peers, dumb and greedy imbeciles decided to take their intrigues a bit too far and he ended up on the wrong side of the Civil War. He fought like a lion, he truly did, but all it brought him was public shame, poverty and eternal distrust of the new political elites. With nothing more than dirty uniform and trusty saber (they even took his horse, a mighty beast like none other), he had no choice but to join a mercenary outfit of brigands, poachers and other “knights of fortune”. What a disgrace!

Please tell me if you find anything interestign in here and I'm looking forward to roleplaying with you!
