Candlelitsoul — Roleplayer Guild

Hello everyone. I have a few story ideas that I'm seeking partners for. As most people tend to bypass the rules when reading through the idea, I'm posting them first.

1) No sexual content. I don't write it. I am, however, seeking players 18 and above. Most of my content has triggering themes such as ongoing and past abuse, drugs and alcohol, mentions of rape, and dark themes involving bloodshed, war, and gore. 

2) Multi-paragraph. I want content to work with. I can understand a paragraph during a slow conversation scene, but the bulk has to be multiple paragraphs. However, do not rush scenes. I want our characters to be able to interact.

3) I don't usually do this, but I need a sample of your writing. Too often people have claimed to be what they aren't, and I'm hoping to head that off at the pass.

4) Be able to post, at the bare minimum, once every few days. We all have busy lives, especially with the college semesters coming up, home lives, illnesses, and children, but I would like to keep the story going.

5) Do not control my character. I don’t mind during a time skip, so long as we hash the details beforehand, but don’t try to change my character’s mannerisms, favorite foods, personal habits, etc. It’s not fun or enjoyable for anyone involved. 

Now, for the ideas. Some of them may seem generic, but they can be built upon. Most were ones that I had when I started role playing, and they're dear to me.

Note- I do have more in a file online, as well as my previous posts. If you can follow the rules above and wish to see the list, comment or message me.

Secondary note- You will be playing the male characters.

1) No real plot, but one can be created. My character owns a tavern in a small village. Her past will be revealed through her biography. Hoping for someone to either play the husband, or a traveler with whom romance can happen later. There will be no fantasy element. 

Themes- Romance, historical, adventure, slice of life.

2) Man comes to a small town to be its priest, finding that most of the community is deeply religious, but none more so than the aging Mattheson’s. Their daughter, however, is one you wouldn’t expect coming from that family. A few tattoos, long, wavy hair, and bright floral colors. Invited for dinner, his suspicions are confirmed, and he comes to admire her.

Themes- Romance, modern, slice of life.

3) Attending a Burning Man Festival, Rain settles in with her instrument and begins to play. The music has always soothed and entranced, sending people mentally into different worlds. She never expected that someone would cross into her own, or that it would change her life for the better.

My character’s is the daughter of a God and Goddess in a realm similar to that of the Elves in Lord of the Rings. Rather than wanting to be royal and hidden, she chose to be reborn in the human world, though her gift remained. However, the child she became was raised in a cult, who revered her for her gift. At the age of fourteen, she took her instrument and ran. With war brewing in her old home and the cult angry for her leaving, she’s being hunted by both sides.

Themes- Romance (eventual), slice of life, adventure, fantasy, modern.

4) Girl falls for the resident bad guy, even though everyone warns her against. After getting in the crossfire of a fight, her father, Chief of Police, warns her to leave him or leave with him. Choosing the latter, they end up living in his mother’s basement. After a month, she learns she is pregnant, and separates herself from him, living in her VW van. He promises to change, and she accepts him back, even though he’d previously stated that he didn’t want the child. A fight will later ensue between him and his rivals, and she will lose the child after being dragged into it.
 
Story can go three ways: 1) She will leave town and start over somewhere else. 2) She falls into drug use to forget. 3) Both of these. She will eventually meet someone else. Can be male or female.

Themes- Romance, mature (abuse, miscarriage, drug/alcohol use), modern, slice of life.

5) In the deserts of Arabia, Alya and her mother live in a one room, cave side home. Both work as servants to the Great Lord Abdus, who is claiming Alya as his bride after taking her virginity and impregnating her. The day before she is to be handed over, Prince Amar raids the lands and takes Alya while the mother flees for Lord Abdus’s estate. Legend tells that Prince Amar is a fierce killer, unwilling to negotiate and cries of mercy fall on deaf ears. At first, she thinks her life is over; she’ll either be killed or sold into slavery. The next day, however, the truth comes to light; he’s been searching for her all along. She’s his daughter.

Themes- Action, slice of life, war, historical (about 8th century).
