The desire to join an RP instead of run one, but the lack of anything being advertised or open that fits my interests

Why are people posting 1x1 'looking for' threads in the main section, when there's a whole section for 1x1 RP's?

It'd be nice to be able to *play* an RP I'm interested in for once, rather than having to *run* one all the time. Of course, doesn't help that I'm picky about what I enjoy.

Hmmmmm... PM inviting me to an RP on Discord by a user who just joined the site and has no posts? Doesn't sound iffy at all, no sir.

Bio

I've been roleplaying in one form or another since the late '90's. I've played as many tabletop games as I have online ones, and the quality of both has varied wildly.
I have an active imagination, and I love immersive, descriptive roleplaying. My genres of choice are sci-fi, and modern-day (with a sci-fi twist). I like RP's that mix reality with fiction, and throw an unusual and exciting twist into an otherwise normal setting - something like Stargate SG-1 would be an example, or Battle: Los Angeles. An almost recognizable world, but with some sci-fi twists.
I'm a fan of military and action-based RP's that do this especially, and they are easily my favourite - though I rarely see any that appeal to me enough - all the military RP's are too 'plain', and anything else modern day is usually fantasy or fandom. Or *shudder* school RPs...

I have a lot of fandoms; Transformers, Macross, MLP: FiM, Fallout, Battletech, Ace Combat, and others to varying degrees. But I don't often join fandom RPs because the ones I'm into don't come up, or I am very picky about my RPs and their plots and feel.

I don't play in free, as I find the short posts and bad spelling and grammar infuriating. I like a lot of depth, story, setting and character to my RPs, so am usually found in Casual and sometimes Advanced. Though, usually running my own RPs.

I'm 43 years old, and live in the UK, so I may not be on all the time.
I also like playing non-human characters, especially anthro ones, robots or synthetics, or some hybrid of both.

Outside of my RP tastes and hobby; I read a lot of books, play wargames and TTRPGs, make model aircraft and vehicles, and am also a brony and furry. I have been running a large local furmeet group for the last 10 years and have been involved in running a very successful UK MLP convention.

FYI as an in general point, I'm going away for a little over a week from Saturday. I'll have limited access while I'm away, but I won't be writing any lengthy posts while I'm away. I can be reached though, and I will check on the site a few times.

No worries, I'll look forward to it. Feel free to ask if you need any assistance.

(Good to see the double posting isn't just affecting me)

You can wait if you like, but if you want to get right into it, then I'd suggest selecting an aircraft right away. Also, there's not likely to be anything super-drastic in there.
And you're certainly welcome to use an F-4. I'm particularly fond of them myself.
Awesome, sounds good to me.
Hello, Keyblade!
As I said in the post below yours, you're more than welcome to join in as well as Nobodyman. We're looking for a few more players to bring up the numbers a bit. You're also more than welcome to fly an F-14, as there's one in the op list, and one of our previous players had one too.
There will be a few more aircraft 'unlocking' after this mission, as it's our first real 'story' mission, and will have a bit more of an influence on the rest of the game.

If you'd like to post your character - and Nobodyman too - then I'll try and write both of them in as soon as possible in the plot when it makes sense.
Thanks for showing interest, and I'm happy to have you both along.
Hello Keyblade! As I mentioned in the post just above yours, we're looking for a few more people, so you'd be more than welcome to join us, and also to pilot an F-14 as there's one on the OP aircraft list. The next set of aircraft are unlocking after the current mission too, since there'll be some plot developments.

If you and Nobodyman go ahead and post your characters, I'll write them both in ASAP, probably just as we're coming out of this mission and back to base, as I have some ideas about that, and a couple more pilots could help at that stage.
Ariella responded to each pilots' declaration they were up with a firm and positive 'Roger' as they checked in. As Farid's F-20 formed up on the flight of aircraft, she lead them out of the holding pattern, and gradually increased speed, sending them off on course for the holding tanker over the Mediterranean sea, safely - or so they hoped - off the shores and territorial waters of Egypt and Libya.

The flight to the tankers' racetrack holding pattern was uneventful and quiet, with the early afternoon sun blazing, and visibility good for miles in all directions. As always, in the changed world post-asteroid and post-flood, the sea was alive with merchant shipping below, and while not choking from horizon to horizon, there were a good number of vessels about.
Finally, the tanker checked in with them, and Ariella lead the squadron into their holding position for the hookup with the VC-10, the elegant British-made aircraft flying a straight and steady course ahead.
"Pilots, check your planes and prepare for refuelling," declared the tankers' refuelling operation. "By the numbers, now, over"
"Roger, moving into position, over"
She ensured all the comms channels were synced up, with the squadron and the tanker on the same channel, before speaking to all present.
"Okay team. Five, you go in last - your aircraft has the shortest legs, with mine close behind. Three, you're most heavily loaded and had to take off with the most weight and least fuel. Go in first to top up. Two, you follow second. Then three, myself and Five."
She retarded the throttle slightly and took a high aft position of the formation, giving plenty of clearance to the others as they refuelled, talked in expertly by the tanker operator, who lead them on with patiently and quietly encouraging words in a clear tone.

Finally, her own turn came around, and the Israeli plugged the basket with the probe on the Kfir first try, having conducted numerous refuellings in her career.
Pounds of fuel were pumped over as she held the delta jet steady, waving back as the Englishman in the observation bubble waved to her as she hung in the air behind the converted airliner.
Finally, with a puff of liquid freezing in the air, the VC-10 pulled away and she dropped back, dropping and banking aside.
"Next," she called over the radio, mimicking a waitress. "Musket, you're up"

After the last aircraft had refuelled, the VC-10 crew broke away, and the big jet blinked its' navigation lights twice in farewell, before banking away in a gentle turn back towards the north, and the safer UN territory of Europe.
For the flight, Ariella banked the opposite way, heading them towards Northern Africa, and their eventual rendezvous with their mission.
"Okay everyone," she remarked over the radio, buckling up her oxygen mask. "We'll be crossing the territorial boundary in approx thirty minutes. Feet dry ten minutes after that. As soon as we cross the beach, we go low altitude and terrain mask until fifteen miles out from the targets for the recon. A sharp pull up to get the best recon picture then, and we split formation. Four and five, you drive in to take the photos, while the rest of us play decoy and crank up our ECM and make a lotta noise to keep them looking the other way. Once the photos are done, we bust out for the coast, and make a mess of the designated sites. Everyone understand the mission?"
Nobodyman, yes! We are certainly looking for a few more people to fill in the spots. You're more than welcome to join us. Feel free to ask anything you need - we'll all be happy to help you out.

Nautilus, I'm just replying to your post now. Thanks for getting one up! Glad you're still with us :)

Everyone, feel free to fill in the gaps in time in my post with what your characters do in the various scenes, as I'm deliberately leaving what and how your characters act etc. while skipping us on to the mission at the same time. So, there's plenty of scope for you to fill in your own characters' experiences in those times.
