Bio
I've RP'd for the best part of over 15 years now here on the Guild, and particularly like military settings, both contemporary, past and near future. I have even dabbled in a little more experimental RPs, as well as created a plethora of 1x1s over my time in the guild. I like creating RPs with a distinct flavour- and often shift between narrative-led RPs to semi-randomised plots. I've been more a GM lately than a player, and don't really lean into fandom- instead, exploring my own universes lifting themes from other source material.
My main interests are military-themed, near-future RPs, with a focus on technology. But I'm beginning to push what that RP idea looks like- taking inspiration from lots of media and focussing on the fun, indulgent side of RP, whilst also exploring the lows and emotional side.

Raven Squad is a project over seven years in the making, and focusses on a class-based, eccentric yet half-grounded near future special forces team that acts as a response team where you can't send any special forces team in. It's incredibly dumb, incredibly loose, and yet, has delivered some of my favourite plot points in RPG. A brainless action flick a la John Wick and Kingsman meets a complex thriller with a fun left turn in it, Raven has been the culmination of over a decade of loving special forces RPG, gaming influences and other silliness in a package that has provided players with something quite different to a normal military themed RPG. While at an end, this is an RP that is a signature- it's silly as hell, takes itself barely seriously, and is what peak fun military RPG to me should be.

Delta Hyper is a love letter to Wipeout, F1's Drive to Survive (Netflix) and contemporary Formula One, with influences from solarpunk, cyberpunk, transhumanism and other posthumanist concepts. An RP that follows pilots in their ups and downs, it's a story that hasn't got me playing an actual character, but framing the camera at each pilot (played by others), and presenting it as if it were a documentary. Lifting elements from TTRPG, this is a Racing RPG like no other and no parallel exists- using dice rolls and randomisation, with a stats-driven system to generate race results, rather than actually RPing the races, players experience the fast-paced, dynamic world of anti-gravity racing. This means that come Qualifying and Race, the results are genuinely a surprise to everyone- and based on decisions made through dilemmas and decisions made between races. Friendships, rivalry, the glamour and even a little political undertone play out in 2094, in a colourful, utopian future that focuses on the fight to take first place.

Then there's Tactical Breach Wizards: Fireteam Hex. First use of any set IP as a formal setting, this is an RP that offers a darker mirror to Raven Squad, focussing on the other side of the equation- unlikely heroes in an uncomfortable position. I don't normally do fantasy, but the world, the lore, the feeling of the characters and the ability to write a comedy just was too difficult to pass up. An RP that focuses on a group running away from a variety of threats as wanted mercenary wizards in the middle of a post-revolution, Eastern-Europe adjacent 1990s to present Polavia.
roleplayerguild.com/topics/197399-dis…
Lastly, Dispatch: Heroes of Claremont. This is another IP-adjacent world, albeit drawing on a different setting and a new cast of superheroes. As my "first" proper superhero RP, this combines workplace comedy, a Storyteller-lite system and a fun, diverse, and large cast together in a dynamic, diverse setting.
I'm pretty flexible and try and get back to people on ideas and responses, but sometimes, I may become very busy and it will take some time till I am un-busy. I aim to clear posts within a week!

Sorry for the total lack of responses/reactions to anyone, I've been AFK and have only just gotten access to a laptop. From here, I'm gonna try and run a response/post, and are up for collabs, though I am really sporadic till Monday evening GMT. Sorry!
Natalie swept, firing into the distance at the shadow, as did the other Juggernauts, but it didn't come to any avail. Cursing, Natalie kept watching, keeping as close as she could to the other two, before realising the movement of the shadow was close. The .50 smashed holes in the masonry, firing at the rock as Zara moved, swept and moved around. And even Natalie, firing less rounds, could tell that.
"Stop." She said, as she hunkered back. The shadow moved closer, as Jenny turned.
Jenny saw it coming, and by what must have been a miracle, had the cat like reflex to make sure that when Zara didn't drop the Scimitar down on her exposed head, the one that Zara had managed to crack open her helm on in doing so, smashing it off her head clean and throwing her down onto the floor. Any inch to the side, she'd have had it deep in her neck, past the neckbrace and top of the chestplate. She cursed, as she fired, Natalie swinging the sword broadly, firing into the shadow.
"Shit!" Jenny yelled, as she hyperventilated, her LMG back in her hands again, as Ross turned.
"Are you alright?" The response was met with a mere nod, as she held close to Natalie, visibly shivering. Yet the Russian woman knew that they were not going, and that Zara must have been getting desperate.
"She's getting tired. That was desperate. Hold." She added, sliding a new .50 cal mag into the Deagle, looking around.
"Okay, whatever we do, don't make too much noise, anticipate where she can go."

Fairs, I'd have thought it might be something like that- lemme know when you're up for writing it.
@MrDidact
Fuck yeah, now that's what I'm talking about :) Gonna be a good collab. Will it match to Rhae's or not?

There's something absolutely insane about Targaryen armour. It's like, they looked at a normal suit of armour and thought, fuck it, how can we make this more gothic, dark and utterly scary. Brilliance.
@Abefroeman
Sounds good! I do feel like I might have timed this wrong with the joust, but meh, I think there's probably a few lists that are ending.

Nah, no worries- I thought from the armour he was jousting, but nvm. Would there be anyone else involved in it?

I was literally thinking that- would it be too soon for Rhaegar and Ellion to perhaps joust, or should that come after the next couple of tilts? Just to up the ante, and really see what the
Also, Rhaegar's armour is quite possibly the coolest fucking thing I've seen today.
