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.
Other interests:
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.
Looks like a lot of people have shown interest already. I'll have the OOC up in the coming days, but we still have room for more.
For those who are already brainstorming their characters, The Doctrine of Combat Supremacy has some details about character creation. Though the official CS form will go up with the OOC later this week. It won't be quite like the last one, so those with returning characters might have to make some edits.

| S T A T U S: |ALIVE | R A C E: |HUMAN | F A C T I O N: |THE INQUISITION
| N O T E S: |A member of the pope’s special esper unit. Came to Pax Septimus due to news regarding what happened to Pac-A-Fist, as they were friends once upon a time. They don’t appear to have much interest in leaving now.

| N O T E S: |A shopkeeper that wears a funny hat that makes her look like a witch. That’s about all she wears, as slaving over a cauldron is uncomfortable and hot work. A bit of an eccentric. Supplies freelancers with the gear they need, as she’s only loyal to money.

| S T A T U S: |ALIVE | R A C E: |HUMAN | F A C T I O N: |THE FREELANCERS
| N O T E S: |One of the Bates twins, and arguably the face of the duo. His jovial attitude has made him popular among the freelancers. His name is known all over America, if you’re part of the supernatural world, at least. The normies just know him as one hell of a Van Halen impersonator.

She too was abducted by Justin, but was saved when he was slain.

| S T A T U S: |ALIVE | R A C E: |HUMAN | F A C T I O N: |THE FREELANCERS
| N O T E S: | One of the Bates Twins. Regina’s aggressive nature makes her feared, but her strength is worth respecting. She earned her title as “Ruinous Meteor” and looks for any opportunity to test her might. She’s kinda dumb though.

| N O T E S: |The leader of the monster sympathizer group Maverick alternative stands about ten feet tall, towering over mortal men. Much like Vermillion Veronica, his aim is to ensure Pax Septimus one day becomes relatively normal. Though he refuses to help slaughter every monster taking residence in Pax Septimus.

| S T A T U S: |ALIVE | R A C E: |MONSTER | F A C T I O N: |MAVERICK ALTERNATIVE

| S T A T U S: |ALIVE | R A C E: |MONSTER | F A C T I O N: |MAVERICK ALTERNATIVE
| N O T E S: |One of the last if not the last of the golden dragons. No one knows why they arived at Pax, given their aversion to monsters and the magical. They spend most of their time pretending to be a human and would rather flee than fight, but not always...
| S T A T U S: |MISSING | R A C E: |HUMAN | F A C T I O N: |GEMINI
| N O T E S: |A Mysterious violin player that seems to be an Esper, yet has no recollection of acquiring a grimoire. The events of SoE were set in motion after Justin turned her into a vampire. With Justin vanquished, she has only recently been able to act of her own accord. While she does not work for GEMINI, they are the ones looking after her.

| N A M E: |Binky
| S T A T U S: |ALIVE | R A C E: |HUMAN | F A C T I O N: |GEMINI
| N O T E S: |A specialist esper who frequently assists Veronica with her research. Often works as an operator when Veronica is unable to personally manage Gemini agents, or acts as a second operator for a second squad during larger missions. Seldom participates in operations directly and never without Veronica's orders. Doesn't seem to have Veronica's respect regardless.

| S T A T U S: |KIDNAPPED | R A C E: |HUMAN | F A C T I O N: |GEMINI
| N O T E S: |A woman that was extracted from the chest of the Holy Diver, a massive behemoth. She seems to have been a power source for the thing, which makes about as much sense to you as it does to Gemini. She’s a little out of it and is recovering as of now.
| C O L O R C O D E: |bold
| N A M E: |Dr. Fritzi “Vermilion Veronica” Moller
| S T A T U S: |ALIVE | R A C E: |HUMAN | F A C T I O N: |GEMINI
| N O T E S: |Heads all of Gemini’s operations in Pax Septimus, and is a deeply revered researcher. She’s been tasked with ensuring Pax becomes stable and relatively monster free. She also has full permission to use the agents to further her research. Don’t worry, she won’t experiment on you. That’s what Binky, her lab assistant, is for.
To keep things concise, I'm not going to include every named NPC that's appeared in the RP. Just the seemingly more important ones with a few Player character specific guys in there. The list will likely change as characters gain and lose relevance.
