I expect you to be:
*** Casual to advanced in writing capability.
*** Comfortable writing in third person, past tense.
*** Willing to write without coding aside from italics - and use it for internal thought/emphasis of a particular word only.
*** Able to write for your character(s).
*** Up front about comfort level regarding mature content.
(I will not turn away anyone that says they're not comfortable with 18+ content; any plots I have planned work with/without adult content.)
I live in the -05:00 UTC time zone (USA East Coast Time). I do work full time and have a family, but can get on every day to at least read posts. Making posts - usually I can do on average every other day (everyday if my schedule allows) but there are times where life just gets in the way. I will do my best to let you know when life gets in my way and hopefully be able to give you a timetable for how long it will be before I can post again.
I like romance; I prefer having it in my RPs. However, I am open to not even having romance involved if that's what you prefer.
That being said, I don’t mind writing adult content if it’s in the context of the RP. It should be a realistic expectation and definitely not turn into a plot point (being that it’s really the only thing the characters have going on.) It’s okay to admit you’re uncomfortable writing it or just don’t know enough about the act to portray it with your writing - I am just as happy to fade and/or fast forward the RP past it if the situation comes up as write it out if it means you're comfortable with what's happening.
Violence is okay in my book, but just keep it realistic and within reason (i.e. no violence so absurd it’s cartoonish.) Everything can be justified and I’d like to be able to get a real reason if I ask (answers along the lines of "That's just how it works" are not real answers.) I’m a dark humored person with even darker outlooks on things (for a long time my main focus in writing was horror, for example) so don’t be afraid to have a dark setting or twisted characters.
I like to ask questions, particularly when it comes to minutia or how/why something happened. It’s just how I am. Please never take it personally, and always feel free to ask grill me just as bad.
If you don’t take it personally, I won’t take it personally. Some characters are nice, some characters are mean, and some characters just stab people in the face for minor transgressions (yes, I have a character like that and it’s a lengthy explanation as to the justification for it.) What happens in character, though, is purely in character. Trust me, I won’t feel shy about telling you I have an issue, and I would hope you will do the same, so long as we all keep it civil.

Original Plots:## It’s Never Simple (Romance with action as a subplot)
High school is mostly boring - the same old stuff for the most part. Then a new girl moves to town and starts high school. She’s friendly, maybe even naively so, but there’s just something that seems off, particularly with her father. And trouble seems to have followed them.
The Basics: Technically, this is kind of a good girl x bad boy mash up - as a heads up because my female apparently is one of those "I can change him" kind of gals that has a soft spot for bad boys.
Set in modern day and preferably in the US, this is obviously a high school setting. The exact details about what the town is like can be discussed as well, as the city size can affect the RP plot.
This can either be a straight up slice of life (normal world) or it could be a superpowered/meta-human/mutant slice of life (details of that to be discussed) depending on which you prefer.
The details of the high school will need to be worked out, as my high school had a different setup than the high schools even in the surrounding cities - but we’ll discuss more if anyone wants to do this.
For this Romance does not mean Adult Content. Adult content will only come up if we discuss it beforehand.
I’m looking for my partner to at least play a male love interest for my female. I’ll give you details about her if you would like that before hand to help you plan.
The Road To Hell ("Slice of Life" Action)
Sometimes, even innocent actions can lead to malice. Ariel learns this the hard way when she gives directions to some old acquaintances, only to find out it lead to her roommate's abduction. She's determined to make things right; she just hopes it's in time.
The Basics: This is set in a USA college. Either we can start off with our characters knowing each other, or have them meet for a first time.
The abduction will happen after the start of the RP.
This does not require romance, and you do not have to have a male to counterpart my female. Only real requirement is college aged character that would be willing to go along with Ariel on her quest to save her roommate.
Questing We Shall Go - *Long Term RP* Fantasy (up to my partner if this has mature content or not)
This scrappy band must not only deal with the random monsters and getting money, but with each other as well.
The Basics: This is for 4-6 characters total (so 2-3 characters each.) This is generic fantasy setting (I generally use Dungeons and Dragons 3.5 for my classification of 'generic') where pretty much any fantasy race is allowed, any fantasy class is allowed, and demons/warlocks = generally bad guys (exceptions can be made.) I may ask a lot of questions, and you should too; it's to make sure we're on the same page about everything.
The characters don't have to always get along, they just have to be working together when it counts - like responding to "Heroes Needed" cries for help, bounty hunting, and pretty much anything else that could pay the bills.
Death should be a possibility - being a hero for hire is dangerous work after all - but that doesn't mean the adventure will stop. We'll just figure out a way to work in the new character so it's not completely interrupting/obvious.
Background Plots: If desired.
- 1) There's a war raging between the ruler to the north and the ruler of the lands our adventures start off in/call home. This can come to light early on, or evolve as background stuff (i.e. we'll discuss it in the separate chat) that could slowly intertwine with what our characters are doing. Either way, eventually it comes down to our adventurers to help solve the problem.
- 2) Demons weren't always evil. They actually lived side by side with the other races in as much peace as any of the races can have along side the usual quarrels. Something changed all that and at some point our group would end up being commissioned to find out why and fix it (or die trying.)
- 3) (This is taken from the plot of a story I'm going to start writing, so is intended for one of my characters, but we can discuss for a change of plotting if you'd rather it be your character.) Decades ago, two warring elvish kingdoms agreed to a truce upon the marriage of the son of one kingdom and the daughter of the other. The princess disappeared a week before the wedding, and hasn't been heard from since. The unrest that feel between the two nations managed to not break into war while the king searched for his daughter. Only a few years ago, the bridegroom prince took the throne after his father's demise, and more recently the princess' father has passed on. War brews again between the two nations as the scorned bridegroom takes up a warpath to find his wayward bride.
I'm generally open to ideas/plot pitches, so long as they are within interests.
