I mostly enjoy writing in the Casual section of the guild. Character development and exploring character relationships motivate me. I like to really think myself into my character and their view on others and the world around them which is why I prefer to stick to one character per roleplay. I love world-building but I am also easily overwhelmed with very detailed concepts I haven't been met with before. So you could say I love a decent amount of world-building and prefer original builds. Once everyone has settled, expanding that world and its concept is a great way to create more depth and keep me as a player hooked as I love to discover new things!

My favorite genre is and has always been fantasy. I guess you could say I love escapism to a point where I like to flee the mundane world entirely. I also feel drawn to sci-fi roleplays but I have noticed that those usually intimidate me. I feel like I am not adept at writing about technology and all that sci-fi goodness so I mostly just pine over how awesome some OOCs look and never apply to them.

When it comes to fantasy I feel right at home. For my mind, it is much easier to grasp magical concepts and worlds than sci-fi ones. As a result of this, all the worlds I write up (be it here as a GM or elsewhere) tend to be fantastical in one way or another. I especially enjoy adventure RPs and witch RPs. I like to see new magical systems and am always eager to learn more about the worlds I RP in.

Additionally, all my characters are queer, always. Since I am queer myself and can't imagine playing straight ^^

Although the days of witch hunts are long past us, life isn't roses. While the upcoming election is threatening witches with a potential anti-witch politician claiming the title of president, unrest is stirring in the corners of the world. A rise in threats has been detected - unnatural beings, magical beasts, and other supernatural phenomena pull media attention and feed directly into an anti-witch campaign.

The Death Knight's Squire (GM)
A D&D One-Shot. A group of adventurers is hired to find the missing grandson of a wealthy couple visiting the town. He was taken by a mysterious knight who rode his horse into the deadly woods nearby, taking the young boy with him. But the knight is not a simple man, he is said to be a resurrected ghostly figure forever in search for a squire, kidnapping young boys who never return home.

Wandering Topside [1x1]
The Cult of the Dragon has come to Phlan, a lawless refuge on the Moonsea. Now, with no significant authority to stop the cult, other power groups in the Realms – the Harpers, Order of the Gauntlet, Lords' Alliance, and even the Zhentarim – must unite to stop the cult from fulfilling its dark purpose in the city. Meanwhile, Rhana, a drow rogue with a questionable past, and Salissa, a dhampir bard with flair, find themselves somehow involved in this as they tackle different missions aimed at stopping the cult.

This is just my character archive. I have recently reorganized it. I made a whole new thread for it, moved the CS I wanted to keep for memories sake over and am now less ashamed to have people stumble upon my creations.

How To Run A Multi-Arc RP (by BlueSky44 and Morose)
Some helpful tips on running and organizing your roleplay and what to do when your story is concluded. This should help you when running a multi-arc roleplay. You will also find some tips on setting up an Interest Check and OOC here.

I always write my IC posts in gray due to finding the white color pretty straining on the eyes.

Here is the CS. If you like, you can work on your character. No rush though. No need of posting it here if not wanted (you can wait for the OOC if you prefer). Getting started will take us a few more days at least.


The Relationship Board was made for you to document any friends or enemies your character might already know. (E.g: A wizarding kid could very surely know some other wizarding kids.)

Here is my character, if you need some guidance how to write your CS.

@Echoes I really like what you've got so far. I hope our characters will get along well. Has she been on some exploring missions yet?
@Erklings25 When can we expect this to set off? Will the there be first post by you? Will there be a story of some sort given?
@Polaris North Dont worry. Ramona (I just rather call her Jessa, but you know her name is Ramona, at least people think it is...) would hit any food out of people's hands and then slap his head and tell him to stop trying to kill the crew ;D
I suppose the Team Leader will be chosen at the beggining of each mission, depending on what kind of a mission it is and who's good what what.


I thought a fixed team leader is better for authority and all? If it changes with every mission I'm feeling like it could get chaotic or maybe even "you're not my boss" kind of attitude sometimes. Of course there's people of expertise in teams that know more about specific things than the leader might does, but the leader isnt supposed to know everything. They're supposed to organize and lead a group of people. Tell them what to do in what order and have a strategic mindset. They should be able to have a clear mind under sudden attack and form a defense strategy quickly if needed. They dont need to know all the specialties of the planet. They just coordinate the group and knows how people work together and who to put to what exercise to have the best results.

I know that Jessa for one wouldn't make a leader. And that she would even refuse to be. And she would also refuse to listen to someone who has no experience, education or knowledge in how to make a bunch of people funtion as a team.
@Polaris North I guess Jessa has stopped eating stuff that he suggests she should try at some point of their shared 5 years on the Condor. 😂😂😂

@Pathfinder Maybe you can make it something like "Security Force for Exploration" or "Security on Exploration Missions". That's all I have in mind right now. But I gotta add that I'm not natively English speaking and am lacking a knowledge of words in that department. So my suggestions are most likely not so helpful.
@Polaris North I thought the same. Thought that the captain probably wouldnt give such a responsible job to someone who is so carefree. A team leader is responsible for the whole team after all.
@Polaris North You can PM me. No permission needed ;) but are they gonna be equal colleagues or is he maybe gonna be the Team Leader...? We would need one wouldn't we ???
@Polaris North We definitely need to discuss their relationship. They've been working on the ship 5 years both and even in the same department (Explorer).

I'm wondering... @Erklings25, every Explorer Team needs a Team Leader, don't they? Are we still lacking this position? Who would choose who becomes Team Leader? Would the captain make such decisions? The Second-In-Command?
