Bio
Hello! I'm Jones! and if you stumbled upon my page, I must have struck your interest!
I like to think that I'm a storyteller. I joined this site to create characters, and worlds I can put myself in. Every post I make will be to the best of my ability, and I hope anyone who stumbles upon my name can see that :D
Just a few things about me if you couldn't tell already by just glancing at my profile haha:
-I LOVE anything Captain America or Marvel related
-I have been RP'ing for over ten years now so I got some experience
- I do my best to try and have a wide range of RP genres
-I'm mostly do 1X1's and Casual/advanced RP's
-I'm a 20 something year old male high school teacher living in the Pacific North West of the US!
- I love meeting new RP'ers and seeing what we can create together!
- I'm a sucker for romance <3
Like i said previously, I’m a high school teacher, so there are specific times of the year where I get bombarded with things so I might not be on for a couple days, and if that's the case I'm trying to let anyone know so they aren't left wondering.
But like I said I love it when people contact me and ask if I want to RP with them, or have an idea and want my skills, and odds are I love the same thing, so If anyone wants to collab just shoot me a PM!
Subjects I love to RP
-Anything Marvel Related, Especially Cap!
-The Percy Jackson Series
-The Witcher
-Mass Effect
-Avatar the Last Airbender
-Anything Sci-Fi
-Harry Potter
- 1X1 Romances
- fantasy
-Modern day life
-Star Wars
-Fairy Tail
Those are pretty much my go to's, but I'm willing to hear out any idea and think about it!
Here's an example of my writing to give you a sense of my "skill" I guess... I keep trying to get better and better so bear with me!
Benjamin West woke up to a loud alarm, and the sun shining through the window and into his eyes. groaned a little as he hit the snooze button, and fell back down onto his pillow. It was an almost perfect plan, until he heard running down the hall and a small voice. "Daddy! Dad wake up!" Ben's daughter Jamie knocked on his door, and continued down the hall to wake her brother up too.
Ben got out of the bed, running a hand through his messy brown hair before drawing the curtains to view the beautiful Virginia forest. He walked across to the room to a nightstand with a picture of a beautiful woman holding a small boy, with the brightest smile in the world. "Buongiorno mio amore" He muttered, touching the picture lightly before walking into the bathroom, getting ready for the day.
Minutes later he came down the stairs dressed in a dark blue sweater, some worn jeans and sneakers. He didn't have a traditional job in the morning, but he did have the all-time job of being a dad. He made his way into the kitchen, a traditional style that Maria helped remodel. Jamie was sitting at the island, finishing some of her homework. Ben rubbed his hand on her head, and walked to the kitchen. "What will it be, Little One? Pancakes? Cereal, eggs?" He asked, turning on the stove.
"Just cereal..." Jamie replied, hard at work. "Just cereal, you got it... Hey, is Marco up? Marco!" Ben yelled, walking to the pantry to receive some cereal. "Daddy, you're still going to help today, right?" Jamie asked. "Yeah, yeah... wait, help with what?" He asked, handing his daughter a bowl and pouring milk in.
"The school fair is today, and you promised to help, remember?" He had been going through so much recently with the legal papers and Marco acting up in school, that he had forgotten all about the fair! "Yeah, I remember sweetheart... I'll be there. Marco! Hurry up, don't make me come up there!"
A couple seconds later Ben's oldest, Marco walked down, not saying a word, only grabbing a bagel from the kitchen counter. "You get your work done, Big Guy? I'm not going to get a note to sign tonight for bad behavior?" Ben asked, looking over at him as he helped Jamie put things in her backpack. Marco shook his head. "Can we go now? We're going to be late."
"Well maybe if someone came down on time we shouldn't be. Come on sweetheart. Everyone in the car! You all got your lunches, right?"
----
The car rides to school were not the most heartfelt and happiest. It was debating on what to listen to on the radio, mixed with passive aggressive remarks from Marco, to Ben giving a speech on how he needs to help out and grow up. When they parked in front of the school, Marco immediately left without saying a word. "Yeah, Love you too!" Ben yelled after him, getting out of the car to help Jamie out. "Alright Little one, when does your fair start?"
"Five o'clock. But volunteers need to be there an hour early to set things up."
"Four o'clock. Got it. And... what did you sign me up to do, exactly?"
"I don't know, the school figures that out, I just put you on the list!"
"Alright, mio amore, I'll be there. Have a good day, I love you." He gave her a kiss on the forehead before letting her go off to her class. He stood next to his car, watching her meet up with her friends. She didn't seem as embarrassed of him as Marco was, it was probably because she was letting him cope with this all. She was a smart girl, too smart if you asked him.
He looked next to him to see a couple of parents (especially mothers) staring over at him. He was famous in a sense, he made a lot of interviews and did a lot of crazy things on his old show that many people would see him as a perfect human being... But he didn't feel that at all. He gave an awkward smile and wave to the crowd, getting into the car before any of them could dive into small talk. He didn't hate talking to people, it was just... difficult. Especially right now.
He would probably do what he did every day. He would call some buddies he had that were still talking about a new season for his show (and politely turn them down), clean the house, and then apparently help at this school fair. It was a change of pace from what he used to do, but this was still just as challenging.
If you have any questions about my RP's, or future ones just shoot me a PM!
All of these people are amazing writers and friends and if you happen to RP with them consider yourself lucky! XD
and for a final note: THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE A HOBBY, NOT A CHORE! I never want to put pressure on you, or myself and make any RP feel like you NEED to post, or have to force yourself to write. This is supposed to be fun, and I'll do anything to make sure it feels that way :)
The vampires in are extremely strong and fast, as well as having extreme senses of smell, and when at night, eye sight.
And just to clear things up with everyone, the plot is set in modern day Colorado in a small town in the mountains
NarcissisticPotato said
Interested. Do civilians ever wander into the forest and if they do will the vampires just let them go or kill them?
Wandering in to the forest is a very strict rule in the town. The Sheriff (who I'll play) makes sure no one gets close to the forest line, but if someone were to wander in The younger vampires will most likely either scare them, mess with them, and then probably kill them while the older ones will keep their distance
It also depends if they've eaten recently.... and if the person is bleeding, most of them will go crazy and try to kill except for the eldest of them.
"I'm here to see Lexi Rogers." The hospital was busy. During the fight between Venom and Spider-Man, a lot of people weren't killed, but injured... One of them being Peter Parker's girlfriend. The receptionist at the front desk looked at him, then back at her computer. "Are you a family member of Miss Rogers?" She asked. Peter shook his head, impatiently tapping his fingers on the desk. "No, but I'm a very concerned boyfriend." That got her head back up again. "I saw her while she was being dragged in by Spider-Man... There's no way she is with you." She said. Peter raised his eyebrows. "Excuse me?" He asked, looking around. Two nurses popped in to the conversation after eavesdropping. "Yeah, raven haired girl? Small? Yeah... you don't look like her type--"
"But you aaarree kinda cute."
Peter was about to make a comment when he heard a familiar voice. "Peter!" He turned to see Lexi's father. "er, he's with us." He said, taking Peter's shoulder, looking at the receptionist. They were clearly shocked he was telling the truth. They made their way down the hall, and in to a small room. It broke Peter's heart to see this scene. Lexi's mother was sitting next to Lexi's resting body. She looked peaceful, but he knew that she probably didn't feel so good... He sat down next to Lexi's mother, no one saying anything. There weren't any words to say. Then the Doctor came in with the news. Peter's eyes teared up. It was his fault. Every single bit of it.
He had the responsibility to save this city... and he couldn't even save the person that meant the most to him... God, if only he had a lab, or someone to help him-- Peter's head raised up, turning to Lexi's Parents. "Doctor Octavius!" He screamed. Both parents looked up with surprise. "Who?" They asked.
"Doctor Otto Octavius! He is a famous scientist, who is familiar in biology! He's been working on a serum to help cure diseases." He left out the fact that it turned Harry in to that monster. "He can save her life!" Peter said. The parents didn't seem to argue. They knew Peter knew his stuff.
One by one the land team filed in. He gave them nods, and rolled his eyes if they saluted. He listened in to the conversations inside the shuttle, still waiting for the others to show. He had his arms folded, tapping his foot. He gave a laugh and shook his head at Darius' remark. "'after you're done with The Marauders? Didn't anyone tell you? We're a suicide team." Jason said, clearly giving sarcasm at it, a grin on his face. He had no intention of staying here later on in life. When he was trusted enough he would leave town with his ship, and anyone who would join. If they didn't, well, see ya later, Jason supposed.
Skylar eventually walked in to the shuttle, clearly nervous about something. Was it knowing that she was going in to action with a highly skilled team, another secret, or was she wishing she took her death sentence with the Committee...
He climbed in to the shuttle, knowing they were glancing at him. Judging him. Most were new. Most were deadly, and worked alone. What made Jason a leader? He will show them sooner or later. He hadn't had a casualty over the couple years he lead the team. He sat down. "Alright, ladies and gents. Ready to go..." He knocked on the door to the cock pit, indicating that they were good to go.
"Once more in to the fray. In to the last good fight I'll ever know... Live and die on this day. Live and die on this day." He muttered softly as the shuttle lifted off the ground, the latch opened, and they slowly made their way in to the dark cold void of space. The lights were off, the white surface of the planet illumated the interior through the window. After reciting the poem he looked up. "If you see anything that seems suspicious, even the tiniest bit, let me know. Knowing the team's luck, we usually get the worst case scenario... Everyone get the equipment? Comments, questions, concerns, stories?" Jason asked, leaning back. His nerves were relaxed. This seemed like a basic mission. He wasn't worried too much. His team was the worst of the worst, which made them extremely skilled and dangerous.
So while sitting in a car, driving for a couple hours, I was listening to a song that gave me a cool vibe for like a medieval times RP, but as always, with a twist!
There will be the classic legend of Evil taking over the land, with no hope, and all that jazz. And a group of heroes with different skills steps up, and stops the evil, but they don't kill it. They know the evil will return, and they vowed that they will be there when it comes back. Using magic, they preserve their souls in a sleep, waiting for the day the evil will return..
It is modern day, and (you guessed it!) the evil erupts, and starts to destroy the world... The protector's souls awaken, and reincarnate in a person whose soul is like theirs. It doesn't control them, or kill them or anything. They are conscious, and then have the abilities, knowledge, and memories of the heroes. I was thinking like an Avatar thing, where you have to concentrate to use certain powers like looking through memories, or knowledge and more complex skills
They also have a certain symbol burned in their palm, and it glows any color you guys want... and, they have the ability to call in the hero's signature weapon (for example: A sword, bow and arrow, staff, etc)
The souls say they have to group with the others, and they go on a quest to destroy the evil!
is anyone interested so far? I'd love to hear ideas if anyone has any
The fall didn't go in his favor. His web was easily tossed aside, and the claws and teeth of his made very clean cuts on his suit and skin... And to top it all off he shot a web at the last second to reduce the speed of his fall, landing hard on the pavement. People gasped and moved back as Spider-Man and Venom hit. Venom leaned over him, his breath so foul and his face so absolutely terrifying... But Peter wasn't afraid of him. He was afraid of letting him run wild if he failed. Venom took Peter's skull in his massive claws of hands, and spoke the harsh words, squeezing harder and harder on his head. He closed his eyes behind the mask, wincing at the pain in his head, the cuts, and the cut on his side... Then he heard Lexi.
As she talked, the grip loosened and loosened. Then he let him go. Peter gasped, and rolled on his knees, his vision and hearing coming and going... Harry was strong... Whatever Doctor Octavius made him also made him very crazy, and strong... Kinda like how the Green Goblin was. His whole body ached much more than it did when he fought Rick..... He should just fall and die here. Everything Harry said about him was true...
Still on his knees he looked up, breathing heavily, his lower part of the mask ripped... He saw Venom standing in front of Lexi as she stood her ground, yelling at Harry, but he couldn't hear her. The sound of his heartbeat was much louder in his ears. He saw people of all ages staring at Venom with pure absolute terror. He saw couples holding each other, some calling the cops... And then he saw tears of those who stared at Peter...
Then he felt a tap on his shoulder. He came back to reality. He heard Venom screaming, Lexi screaming back, and police sirens. He turned to face the person who tapped him. It was James, the young boy who he saved from the fire weeks ago. He wore a Spider-Man shirt, and in his hands, a mask in his hands. "Put on the mask... It'll make you strong..." James said, holding out the Spider-Man mask. It was clearly factory made, a prop for kids... but it will do. Peter's smile flashed through the hole in the mask. He grabbed the mask, turned away from the crowd of people, and changed masks. He tossed James his old one. "Thanks... I feel stronger already..." Peter said with a nod. James nodded, then turned his attention to Venom.
Peter did as well, and his eyes widened in absolute horror. Lexi landed on the ground, Venom's words, and Peter's adrenaline made him tremble with fear and rage.
"NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!" Peter screamed, and rushed towards the black ooze. He leapt up, doing a flip over Venom, while in mid air, he shot webs at Venom's face, landed on his feet, and yanked harder than he had ever had downward, with a scream of fury. Venom's head cracked the pavement. Peter then pulled, and Venom flew across the street, landing in a building. People gasped and moved out of the way. There was a crowd of brave men and women around Lexi's body.
"LEX!" Peter screamed, sprinting towards her. He felt hot sticky blood running down his side under the suit, but he didn't care. But before he could reach the crowd, he was grabbed by the neck. "See what you do?! You kill! Your Uncle!" He swung Peter in to a wall. "Your girlfriend!" Another swing. "And your best friend..."
Peter gasped for air, no longer feeling dread, or pity on himself. He wasn't going to die. Not here. Not today. He grabbed for the nearest thing he could find. A metal pipe, and he sprinted toward Venom, his neck still grabbed by him. He tried to stab him in the chest, but he dodged. Harry laughed in the rugged voice, and throwing him again. "WEAK!" He screamed.
Peter was done being thrown around. He tried to stab the metal pipe in to the ground to stop him from sliding, it didn't go through, but there was a loud screeching noise as the metal pipe made contact with the metal grate.
The tentacle immediately let Peter go, Harry screamed in pain, and the black ooze seemed to be vibrating... Venom didn't like loud noises....
Peter stumbled up, still holding the pipe, he tore open grate, taking it in his hand, he banged the two pieces of metal together. Harry screamed louder... then he heard another noise join his. He turned to see James wearing his torn mask, banging two trash can lids together. Then more and more followed suit. The whole street erupted in loud bangs and crashes of metal. The ooze slipped off Harry Osborne, Harry no longer screaming, but falling down, unconscious... The black ooze tried to get back to Harry, but the noises refused that.
So the ooze went through the sewage grate. Peter lived to die another day...
Peter dropped the objects in his hand, and moved passed the now cheering crowd. He saw Lexi was now on her back, people still kneeling beside her. "Is-Is she--?" Peter stared to say. But a woman shook her head. "No, but she's terribly injured... She needs to get to the ER..."
Peter didn't hesitate. He gently picked up the unconscious body, then leapt up, and started to swing to the hospital, not caring about anything else. "Lex, I'm so sorry..." He said, still swinging. "I'll drop you off, and then come and see you immediately... I'm so so sorry..." He said desperately, not knowing if she could hear him or not. Spider-Man landed at the hospital, Lexi still in his arms as he explained to them what happened. She was taken in immediately. They offered to help Peter, but he refused, He didn't care about him right now.
He had to get to his backpack, and change so he can make sure she was alright....

"Can we go now? We're going to be late."<br><br>"Well maybe if someone came down on time we shouldn't be. Come on sweetheart. Everyone in the car! You all got your lunches, right?" <br><br>----<br><br>The car rides to school were not the most heartfelt and happiest. It was debating on what to listen to on the radio, mixed with passive aggressive remarks from Marco, to Ben giving a speech on how he needs to help out and grow up. When they parked in front of the school, Marco immediately left without saying a word. "Yeah, Love you too!" Ben yelled after him, getting out of the car to help Jamie out. "Alright Little one, when does your fair start?"<br><br>"Five o'clock. But volunteers need to be there an hour early to set things up."<br><br>"Four o'clock. Got it. And... what did you sign me up to do, exactly?"<br><br>"I don't know, the school figures that out, I just put you on the list!"<br><br>"Alright, mio amore, I'll be there. Have a good day, I love you." He gave her a kiss on the forehead before letting her go off to her class. He stood next to his car, watching her meet up with her friends. She didn't seem as embarrassed of him as Marco was, it was probably because she was letting him cope with this all. She was a smart girl, too smart if you asked him.<br><br>He looked next to him to see a couple of parents (especially mothers) staring over at him. He was famous in a sense, he made a lot of interviews and did a lot of crazy things on his old show that many people would see him as a perfect human being... But he didn't feel that at all. He gave an awkward smile and wave to the crowd, getting into the car before any of them could dive into small talk. He didn't hate talking to people, it was just... difficult. Especially right now. <br><br>He would probably do what he did every day. He would call some buddies he had that were still talking about a new season for his show (and politely turn them down), clean the house, and then apparently help at this school fair. It was a change of pace from what he used to do, but this was still just as challenging.</div></div><br><br>If you have any questions about my RP's, or future ones just shoot me a PM!<br><br><span class="bb-b">Writers I adore</span><br><br><a href="https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/alexakeehl">alexakeehl</a><br><br><a href="https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/akayaofthemoon">Akayaofthemoon</a> <br><br><a href="https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/blindwoofer">blindwoofer</a><br><br><a href="https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/nightwing95">Nightwing95</a> ((We need to start a project sometime!))<br><br><a href="https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/kzombi3">KZOMB13</a><br><br><a href="https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/saz01">Saz01</a><br><br><a href="https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/sinfulskills">EasilyAmused</a> ((My oldest and best friend on the site :D ))<br><br><a href="https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/wistfulwords">wistfulwords</a><br><br>All of these people are amazing writers and friends and if you happen to RP with them consider yourself lucky!
