The World We Left Behind (Steampunk/Sci Fi, Mecha, Adventure, Progressing Technology RP)

That's the basic idea. Or at least, similar things.

The World We Left Behind (Steampunk/Sci Fi, Mecha, Adventure, Progressing Technology RP)

@Ti I like your attitude!

That's honestly what at least some of the inspiration comes from, just in this case, the sea of clouds isn't really a sea, it's just clouds, and the idea is that the technology will advance drastically over time, especially as they discover ruins of the old world and bring up 'ancient' technology. So while they just start out in power armor... who knows where they'd be by the end. I mean by the end... who is to say they're even facing the same threats.

The World We Left Behind (Steampunk/Sci Fi, Mecha, Adventure, Progressing Technology RP)

Humanity was once on top of it all, owning the world they walked. Even the greatest dangers this planet had to offer were like minor inconveniences to them. But as with many stories, 'Something Went Wrong'. Nobody lives today that remembers what happened, and all of our history simply shows that one day humanity was forced to leave our home behind.

Our once powerful civilization became refugees on our own planet, fleeing to the skies as our world became engulfed in a perpetual storm that twisted the environment across the globe, leaving everything in ruin. What did survive was mutated into monstrosities that survived only by becoming stronger killing machines than the world had ever seen.

The greatest of our technology to survive this Calamity was the floating islands that became our homes, sitting on the clouds like an island at sea, with the world below almost entirely lost to us.

But there is so much left behind, so many supplies, salvage, and resources. That's where you come in, the Divers. Divers are the brave souls who take on expeditions to the surface to try and get what they can, and bring it back home for profit, while also helping to develop their city. Divers are so important to the new lifestyle of humanity, that they are often also the defenders of their homes. These people act as hunters, soldiers, salvagers, explorers, even scientists. While it's not easy to be a Diver, it's rewarding to say the least, and if you do a good enough job, hell you might just come to run this town.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So the basics of this RP is that we'll start out as a freshly gathered crew of Divers setting out on their first ever Expedition to the surface. The surface is covered in a storm, meaning it's permanently dark, with acid rain and lightning all over the place. What's worse is even if you manage to find a window where you can get onto the surface and not have to worry about the storm, you're still likely to run into all manner of mutated creatures that want nothing more than to get their next meal.

Your job is to get in, and get out, with as much salvage as you can, and with your head still on your shoulders.

There are four roles on a Diver Team:

Captain - The one in charge. Everyone's lives are in their hands as they chart courses, study storm patterns, and are responsible for finding the opening needed to get to the surface in the first place. They are the one with the understanding of how long the crew has before they need to leave, keeping everyone organized, and making sure everyone gets back home alive, and with a load of salvage.

Breaker - The heavy equipment specialist. Their responsibility is breaking through any obstacles that might be in the crew's way. Is a pass blocked by a landslide? Does a ship's hull need breaking open? Any obstacles that bar the way, the Breaker is the go-to to get past it. Without them, Divers couldn't do their jobs and would be stuck walking around the wastes hoping to find something just lying around.

Loader - The one in charge of getting the salvage back to the ship. Loaders are typically far heavier than other Divers, if only because they need the equipment to carry as much salvage as they possibly can. They tend to have minimum combat capabilities, as the entirety of their equipment is designed to turn them into a walking cargo... well, Loader.

Security - It's exactly what you'd imagine. The thickest armor, the biggest weaponry. While a Captain's rig is typically filled with all kinds of scanners and radio equipment, or a Breaker's rig filled with cutting and crushing equipment, the Security rig is designed for one purpose. Take on whatever organic threat is going to be attracted to your salvage operation, and make sure it dies before the crew does.

While each role has its duty, they all work together as one cohesive unit. Each can help where required, even if it's not their specialty. The most important job of all of course, is staying alive, so while the Security might be the most suitable for fighting off the wildlife, all the other Divers are equipped to defend themselves as well. You can imagine the Breaker has some heavy duty equipment that can bust through even the thickest hides, and the Captain is often second on security while the Loader and Breaker do their jobs. The Loader is the least equipped for combat, but when it comes down to it, they're the last line of defense for the salvage that the crew is here for.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A few extra details about this RP, is that the crew would be starting out in pretty scrappy power armor, made up of whatever they could scrape together. The planet's surface is toxic, so these suits need to be sealed, and the crew has limited oxygen before they need to return to the ship, let alone a limited timeframe before the storm picks up again. The clouds might be permanent, but the lightning and acid rain come and go.

This RP would be an advancing technology sort of deal, where as our characters find salvage, they will be able to develop new equipment, that grows more and more advanced as time goes on. While they may be starting out in what is effectively barely functioning power armor, they would eventually move on to full on mechs, and eventually gain extremely powerful capabilities later on.

More than just salvage expeditions will be happening, as the crew has their downtime in port, and will be tasked with dealing with threats to the city. Whether it's flying creatures or a rival city, Divers are the ones called on to defend the city and ensure its continued development and survival.

Assuming the RP goes on for long enough, I could eventually see things getting pretty crazy, as the crew discovers what caused the Calamity so long ago, attempts to reclaim the former glory of humanity, and eventually, sets their sights on even greater threats than they ever thought possible.

I'd be looking for the crew to stay around 4 people, but one or two more wouldn't be too bad with roles like Loaders and Security being able to take on multiple people. I may even expand the available roles, such as adding a mechanic role to keep the other machines running in the field, or a Scientist who is with the crew more for learning than finding scraps.

This is a sort of 'choose your own mech' RP, just so long as what you pick stays within the theme of what is currently possible within the RP. For example:

Starting Rigs will be power armor level, being more of a suit than a mech, will be slow, cumbersome, and lack the ability to leave the ground at all without the aid of a ship. This means no flying... but also no jumping.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Anyway let me know if anyone's interested in this idea. Mostly looking for people who would be dedicated to the theme and aren't going to just stop posting a week in.

Please respond to the following spoiler specifically that you understand points 1 through 4.

18+ Information

I'm going to be very forward with this information as best I can while trying my best to keep within the rules of the sight. So I'm not going to shy away from being very up front about what I'm looking for here.

1: Simply put this RP will be heavily smut driven. Smut should never be mindless or 'Let's pair these two characters together in a smut scene just for the sake of it'. By that, I mean you can expect that at the very least, any given smut scene will have a reason within the story for why it's happening, that makes it fit into the story. It will never be a case of 'On the other side of town meanwhile, two characters we have never met before are meeting up-'. You can expect at least about a 60-40 Smut to Story ratio in most cases, although it might sometimes feel like more of an 80-20 depending on where in the story we are at.

2: I'm looking for a partner willing to play women who are exceptionally curvy and busty to a somewhat unrealistic extent. I know everyone has their own idea of what is considered busty and curvy and it's hard to give an idea of what I mean without giving image references but I feel that would border on NSFW so I will leave that for private. For now just know that the simplest way for me to describe my interests is that at the very least I like someone who is willing to play female characters who have busts the size of their own head at minimum, 2-3 times the size of their own head maximum. Nothing strictly immobilizing but not necessarily realistic either. And that is strictly a -maximum-. I will also say that not every single character has to be like this, but most of them should be.

3: I particularly enjoy most of all, RPs with a heavy emphasis on Adultery/Cheating themes. I do however, also like to include darker themes such as Nonconsensual Situations, Blackmail, Jealousy, Abusive Relationships, and even on occasion Character Death though rarely involving main characters. That being said, this list isn't fully required, more just preferences. The initial Adultery/Cheating one however is the sort that if it's not your cup of tea, we may not very well get along as our interests may be too different.

4. I am strictly looking to play as 'girls with a little extra' if you catch what I mean, and am looking for a partner who will play female characters. I am open to the inclusion of some other genders, but not as main characters, and most often not standard males. Strictly speaking, my characters will almost always be feminine, regardless of what gender they actually are.

I'll try to keep this as short and organized as I can while giving you all the information you need.

The Plot:

You are the Warrior of Light, just now arriving in [Insert Starting City Here], when you happen upon the strangest of people. They claim they aren't even from this world to begin with, and are trying to find a way back to their own world. The world has forgotten your face, your name, everything about you. They know that years ago the Warrior of Light faced a great evil. But all but that memory alone seems to have been erased from their minds. Knowing this, you decide to set out with this stranger, in the hopes that the both of you can find the answers you are looking for, as you find that you are both practically strangers to this world.

The Need-To-Know:

1: This RP will be set in FFXIV, however it will on occasion shift to other games, such as other Final Fantasy games. It will however, always return back to FFXIV where the main continuous plot happens.

2: The RP will not only be set in FFXIV, but will be following the main story of the game. That is to say, we will begin in FFXIV with the Warrior of Light arriving to Limsa Lominsa, Ul'dah, or Gridania, depending on your character. They will then proceed to be recruited by the Scions, and we will simply play through as we see fit. Some details may be altered here and there of course, for the sake of fun.

3: This is intended to be a long-term play, so I am only looking for someone who is invested in the idea, and willing to stick with it for the long run. I would also prefer if you are active, as I can typically go all in on RP on any given day. We don't have to write back and forth all day every day, but I have gotten very tired of trying to start things with new partners only for them to suddenly be like 'Oh man work has been so rough lately I'm so tired sorry I've been so busy' for weeks on end and we never actually start a RP.

4: Naturally, I am looking for a partner who is very knowledgeable about FFXIV, and some knowledge of FFXV would certainly help as well. It would also be very helpful if you are up to date on FFXIV, as I stopped playing the story midway through Stormblood, and never played Shadowbringers, so I could use a guide should we ever reach that far into the play. (I have played Endwalker at least, and have done some odd quests here and there in Shadowbringers.)

5: There is an expectation of not just smut, but of romance, particularly between our main characters. While I do like the idea of a slow build up of a relationship to eventually turning into romance, in this case the characters will have been together for a while longer beyond what we have played, so the relationship will exist to begin with.

6: If preferred, rather than just a 'Warrior of Light and her World Traveling Companion', we can add on two more characters, one each, to make a Full Party for the RP, which is where I would bring in my own OC. There are multiple ways we can go about this, and I'm willing to discuss ideas with you if you have your own ideas or preferences for how things are done.

Expectations I Have For You:

1: Canon characters will be heavily present in this RP. You should both be comfortable playing as canon characters, and playing with them. When it comes to smut, I am only interested in including the female characters in this. However, male characters still need to be played when they are relevant to the story, such as the other Scions. Who plays who, I don't personally care!

2: As the above implies, many different characters need to be played. If you are the sort of person who likes to try and strictly focus on one character, this is most certainly not the RP for you as there will be an entire world of characters for us to play, and who will need to be played to drive the play forward.

3: I am entirely open to you bringing your own OC into this RP as the Warrior of Light. However, please keep in mind point 2 from the dropdown at the start of this post! If you would prefer, I also have suggestions for characters you could play as the Warrior of Light.

4: I am only looking for partners who are fluent in English. I am very understanding of grammatical mistakes here and there, typos, things like that. However, I have had people message me in the past who either it felt like they were on mobile due to the sheer amount of consistent typos that it felt like they actually just didn't know how to spell things, or they clearly just didn't speak English very well. I would appreciate you being fluent in English, and putting effort into each post rather than rushing through things.

5: No Potatoes.

Expectations To Have For Me:

1: I am regularly active, online pretty much every day. Some days I can RP back and forth all day long, other days I might just not be feeling it and may mostly keep to myself. I am almost always available to talk though.

2: I am in the CST Timezone. I work 9AM - 6PM, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. I live where I work so while I may be 'working' all day, some days I am more available than others. For example, as of writing this I am currently 'on the clock', but only have 2 hours left of 'work' in the day, and have been sitting at home pretty much all day because I have nothing to do. Other days, like what I am looking to be doing this Friday, I may be busy for most of the day.

3: I am open to RPing through other methods, but that can be discussed in PMs. Obviously due to the nature of this RP, it will be kept strictly private.
