If you're roleplaying with your only friends, you're roleplaying with your best friends.

I think to sell someone on an interest check, it's really important to seem enthusiastic about your own idea. That means writing more than a single sentence to attract potential players.

Bio
W I T H R I G H T E O U S H A N D S
Did you know that Dante's inferno is called a divine comedy because things work out for the protagonist? Back in the day, the only two genres were comedy and drama. The only difference was that in a comedy, the protagonist is better off at the end, and a drama is the opposite. So that's why a story about going through hell can still be considered a comedy, even if it's not funny.
Name:
Broken Promise, BP, Boss
Age:
Old enough to know better, too young to care. (that is to say 30's)
Preferred RPs:
I Prefer to make my own, but will occasionally join something if it looks interesting. I'll join just about anything so long as it isn’t overly edgy/sweet, though it's rare for me to do. I don't do 1x1s too often either.
Preferred Roles:
I tend to play adorable characters everyone wants to befriend or proper assholes everyone wants to stay away from. I try not to play moral paragons or prime evils.
RP Conquests:
I've completed quite a few RP's off site, but most of them are on private forums or have simply been lost to the ravages of server crashes. As for stuff here, I'm sure everyone who sees me post in the off topic sections has seen me find an excuse to talk about Danganronpa: Tower of Carnage. It's a project that took over 4 years to complete and I feel pride not only for myself but all the wonderful people who helped make it enjoyable during its run. Re: Zero: The High Council Is technically my first, but it was just something I kind of took over and ended up ending the story after just six months. It finished, but eh...
For some reason I can't seem to stay away from Ari's magical girl RP, even if I'm not sure why I'm still in it.
As for my own projects, I'm doing Symphony on High to continue the gigachad adventures of the espers in Pax Septimus.
RP Graveyard:
I've been pretty fortunate on this forum. I think I joined one when I first came on the site that didn't really do anything, and there are a few 1x1 things that didn't go anywhere. It's disappointing when an RP ends before it can be finished, but I've come to look at them as learning experiences.
And then there's that london magical girl RP, and that dark magical girl RP. I think I'm done joining magical girl RPs for a while.

Videos
I watch a lot of educational videos on youtube. Usually as research for something I’m writing or purely because a topic interests me. I like channels like Tier Zoo and Daryl Talks Games, and I’ll also watch things like Critical Drinker or Literature Devil to deepen my understanding of story telling. Though I also like memes and jokes, to which I’ll find myself watching stuff like Sseth, but usually find myself surfing through meme videos. I gotta work on that.
Games
I have a rather long history of playing virtually every platformer to come into existence during the indie boom, as well as quite a few other indie games. I’ve played Meatboy, Binding of Issac, Gunvolt, Cuphead, Princess Remedy in a World of Hurt, Classic Metroid, Warcraft 3, Final Fantasy 7,8, and 14, Left 4 Dead, Shantae, Celeste, Danganronpa, God Eater, the list goes on. What I’ve played is kind of all over the place. I don’t play many games these days, I tend to pick things that look interesting and go on a decent steam sale.
Painting Minis
I do this in moderation. Otherwise, it's a pretty expensive hobby to start...
Music
I listen to everything, save most country/rap songs. I have too many favorites to name.
Personality:
Not one to take life or the internet too seriously. Is only serious about writing well and having a good time.
Infinite Trickster: A clown who's domain is fun and fright. While Jezebel believes controlling people's emotions is her true talent, It's actually her wizardry with gadgets and feats of dexterity. She can juggle objects of different weight and sizes, has great slight of hand, and can get people to shake her hand without seeing the buzzer, etc. She's also flexible enough to fit inside a clown car.
✿ 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲:
Jezebel is small and thin, but still has mature facial features. She's seldom out of her jester guise. Even her hair is typically dyed some unnatural color, and her face is usually dolled up with face paint. And if not face paint, copious amounts of makeup.
✿ 𝗔𝗳𝗳𝗹𝗶𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻:
Jezebel is nearsighted. When trying to shoot an apple off of a volunteer's head during a practice performance, Jezebel noticed that the apple just kind of blended in with the guy's head. She went to Axis Mundi to have her vision corrected with laser eye surgery. for those wondering, she didn't attempt to shoot the apple.
✿ 𝗣𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆:
Jezabel is a valley girl, through and through. Like, totally. She has an unbreachable smile, and is happy in almost every situation. Sometimes this makes her the life of the party, some times this makes her seem insensitive. But she did become a clown to make people smile. Despite being almost in her thirties, she's very much into everything girls half her age are into. From fashion to celebrities. As one might guess for a clown, pranks and jokes are also a favorite of the trickster.
✿ 𝗧𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗮:
Jezebel mostly does contract work, lending her talent to the highest bidder. While she primarily works for big shots, she can be hired for private parties for a reasonable fee. Though she does do charity work from time to time to help raise spirits. She doesn't like to talk about herself very much, but she loves to talk about all kinds of random trivia. Jezebel is actually pretty good at doing celebrity impersonations, often startling the unaware. Though she's no infinite ventriloquist.
Yup, my characters are my first and second set of rolls. Amber was interesting because I was so sure I was going to make her into a stealthy assasin type. Then her strength and magic stat exploded and I was like "Screw using a spear gun, this girl needs a cannon!" After that, it wasn't hard to picture her as a pirate.
The Bates twins can't hide their aura, so other magical girls can still see and feel it. They aren't anywhere in particular, certainly not at the pit stop. In case anyone was going to notice that auraTM.
Sue submitted to Lily's bear hug without a fuss. Invading one's personal space seemed to be something magical girls did. Well, Amber was never like this, but she seemed to be the exception in most cases regarding magical girl etiquette. Sue didn't mind the closeness, but it was still a little difficult to relax. She wasn't use to be so close to all these people. “I-I'm happy to see you too, Lily.” Lilly was talking with Mariette now, so Sue didn't expect a response. “Oh, Hi Sakura, you too Violet!” In truth, Sue wished that she had a bit more time to talk with the portal queen. Though her inability to do so had less to do with everyone showing up and more to do with her dwindling mana. Between testing all of those clothes on her human form and arriving early, she didn't have a lot of time left. Of course, she could wish for more time, but it didn't seem fair to make the djinn do anything. They came here to relax like everyone else after all... Right? “Um, Deni?” Sue was still locked in Lily's hug, but did her best to face the disguised harpy. “T-thanks for coming. I realize it wasn't easy, walking into what could have been an ambush.” Sue folded her hands together. It was about the only thing she could do without moving Lily. “My time is running out, but I really would like to hear more about you. Do you think we might be able to meet up again in the future?”
Shining scale waited in the dark. It smelled a little funny, but that was pretty normal for a sewer system. She knew this was the only place Mariette wouldn't think to look. Well, she suspected that was true anyway. The portal witch had proven that she was pretty capable at laying ambushes, but there wasn't any reason for her to check below street level was there? It was damp, dark, and smelly. Even if her underlings could see in the dark, the narrow passages and vile water gave Shining scale a very large advantage. It would just be a repeat of last time, only everyone would smell like the sewers. The only disadvantage to this hiding spot aside from the smell was that Amber couldn't really enter the Pit Stop without revealing herself. That was part of what made it a wholly worthwhile place to investigate however. But this was a trap that Shining Scale hopefully wouldn't have to use. Just some extra security should her friends get attacked by the portal witch.
Amber was not ignorant of what was going on inside the Pit Stop. She had requested Sue leave her cell phone on so that Amber could get a rough idea of what was going on inside. Sue wasn't happy with the choice, but honored her master's wish. Amber couldn't hear every spoken word, as the cell phone was in Sue's pocket book. But so long as she didn't hear anything exploding or Sue crying out her name, it meant things were going smoothly.
Elroy and Regina were back in their disguises, walking through the city.
“So Reggie.” Elroy was picking at his teeth with his thumb. “Are you still angry with the Asian lady?”
Regina looked away from Elroy sharply.”We don't connect with them at all!” Her arms remained folded as she walked. “I understand you and Ilia like that kind of antagonistic relationship, but I expected better from Umeko.”
“Really?” Elroy tipped his head. “Maybe this doesn't mean a lot coming from an animal, but I thought Asian lady was a nice person.”
“You're not an animal.” Regina sighed. “The fact that this is all a game to her is what bothers me 'Rex.' She acts like our fight for survival is some form of enjoyment.”
“It isn't?” Regina groaned. “Ha! Look I get it Regina, you like to have everything just so, and Asian lady is a little more party girl than you'd like.” Elroy grinned. “But she knows a lot more than us. She can answer all of those lingering questions that I can't.” He rapped his arm around Regina's waist and pulled himself closer. “Who knows, maybe the two of you will REALLY get to like each other eventually.”
Regina shoved Elroy away from herself. “Why do you have to be so gross?” She grit her teeth.
Elroy laughed. “I still can't believe we're the same person. But see, we could talk to Asian lady and figure this whole thing out. I'd say it would be better than talking to a bunch of random twins for their input.”
“I do find the fact that so many twins are gathered in this area interesting. And one pair was talking in a friendly manner with Caroline.” Regina shuttered. “I suppose Umeko isn't that bad if she's offering us sanctuary from such things. I guess can tolerate her.”
“First step to love is denial, don't make the vampire's mistake!” Elroy cackled. “Anyway, I wasn't kidding when I said I'd treat you to something.” He pulled some money out of his pocket. “That old man paid pretty generously, I think we can go somewhere fancy.” Regina acquired funds by having Elroy restrain wealth people so that she could “convince” them to pay her. Their last target was an old man. Regina noticed he had just mowed his lawn, so she made him remember Elroy mowing it. Then Elroy just had to approach the man to receive his payment.
“Well, where did you want to go?”
“It's not a ton of money...” Elroy rubbed his chin. “How about the Pit Stop?”
“NO!” Regina shouted. “It's too crowded! Especially this time of day. You know I don't like those kinds of places.”
“B-but cars!”
It would seem they still had a few things to work out.
Age: 24/11 | Gender: Female/Female | Illusion, Gravity Body | Power of Friendship, Regeneration | Moirai Wings, Soul Jar, Martial Training, Familiar, Environmental Sealing, Gifted, Awareness, Mystic Artifact
Another day, another chance to balance the scales of power.
It amazed Tonya how frequently magical girls started fights over simple misunderstandings or petty things like territory. Magical girls were originally suppose to embody the pinnacle of virtue. Pure, innocent young girls who knew no evil and were unsullied by the horrors of the world. She could forgive a magical girl for not being born female or past adolescence, but too often did magical girls act and think like children for Tonya to feel comfortable. Well, it was whatever.
Her goal here was simple: Ensure the Bates survive despite overwhelming reinforcements.
This was going to be more challenging than last time, but it wasn't anything she couldn't handle. Just another case of magical girls smelling blood, not understanding the situation, and picking sides based on who was more likely to win. Technically she could be accused of doing the same thing, but Tonya would be out of a job if the fates were correct on everything. The Bates winning a 2 V everyone without help? As if!
She decided to wait up on the rooftop of a nearby building. In time, Regina would be arriving at her exact location.
This week I need to cover for someone on Saturday, so you can expect the chapter to close on Sunday. You have plenty of time to write something or work on your character before we enter chapter two.
For anyone who might be interested in joining, there are still spots open.
