This Looking For RP topic is marked as closed, meaning it is no longer seeking new players.

I've tacked this up before, but it's totally different now bc the title's different and I have new characters, right?

I tend to like romance roleplays, plots driven by action, and characters that're open to being developed throughout an RP. I'd like to do something that involves a setting that we dream up together for a character or two, and just tailor them or their background a little bit to fit into it. I think that doing that's really fun. But hey, if you don't want to, we don't have to.

I'm pretty sure that romances are one of the best genres to write with two people because in my experience they're the ones that tend not to die out. If you're trying to do a romance with one of my people, please make sure you could see the characters with each other without any tailoring. We can even do a sort of domestic scene before we really go into things to see if things would work.

A plot driven by action, in my opinion, is where the story has a problem/solution structure, but the problem is never solved by talking it out. It's more a grand-scale, enemy type thing, which would entail careful planning and explanations of motives for the opposing side(s). It's really hard to accomplish but. Still so much fun.

Lastly, the insightful playing of your character is a pretty easy topic. Just kind of understand that your character is an alleged person, and as such, they will not know everything. If I slip in some extra information that your character could in no way know unless they read my actual post/my character's thoughts and your character suddenly knows about it, I will point it out and ask you to fix it.

Character Descriptions

these little blurbs i've written are just that: blurbs. short descriptions that do not fully describe the characters. visit a profile or two before you tell me that you're interested in someone, and definitely make sure to visit their profile if you're gonna say you're interested in them. it's really great to rp with someone who knows about your character's setting and that doesn't ignore the work that you've put into a character profile :)

Cassius
profile
Pretty much just a jerk elf with a reason to be a jerk. If he ever worked through his emotional scarring and general soured opinion of anyone that approached him, he'd be sarcastic and crass and disturbingly honest with a side of generally mushy sweetness and shyness. He's royal, but he's prone to running off in the kingdom just to be contrary and because he doesn't really have any actual duties.


Ferran
no profile b/c his is in a sorry state
He's a vampire - the first in my mind, but if you don't like that, one of the first. Really reasonable, really calm unless his temper is triggered. Once it is, you probably won't live past it. It's kind of hard to trigger it, though, because his parameters depend on his mood. Could be considered a robot if you like things like human emotion, but once he likes someone, he pampers them like he's Paris Hilton and they're her dogs. Runs a sort of syndicate that's not always illegal so that he can take over the world, and that's funded by his always legal insurance company and his absurdly expensive consulting appointments.


Gray
profile visit his profile if you want to play with him. read it. study it
Lowkey a bad person, but so genuinely ignorant of it that he's highkey a good person. I'd say he's more of a bad influence than a bad person. He's a perpetual party boy - he would fit in great in a frat - but he's got a big ole moral compass. Considers himself very close to people, oftentimes before they do. Usually only meets people through parties, but he's pretty judgemental of them regardless of his own tendencies.


Gwyn
profile
A gigantic awkward oaf. He could probably kill whoever you put in front of him within two minutes, but he gets genuinely terrified whenever he has to go to a party full of people he doesn't know and that he has to network with. He's king of a whole fae type people, which basically means he's in charge of like all the myths like nymphs and spirits and even Greek gods. He's really only prone to interacting with other fae types since he's not usually outside of his realm unless he's investigating something that's happening on earth.


Logan
profile
Basically a guy with a complicated breed of dissociative personality disorder. He's stuck in a vicious cycle of a tortured existence, and he's reeeeaaaaalllllly suicidal, but he's accepted that he's never going to die and is in a major depressive state. Unless his other personality is in control, in which case he goes on a murdering rampage and goes to jail for a lifetime sentence. Until he escapes and puts Logan back in control to outrun the authorities. He's millions of years old, though, so he can be shoved into any time period.


Minerva
profile is wip
One of the most grounded people you will ever meet. She's new, like Perry below her, so I'm not quite sure what scenarios work best for her, but she was a character that hung out around Ferran a lot (she still does) and I started falling in love with her, so. She's a barista and an insurance agent, so whatever you might think of with her is very welcome.


Perry
profile is a gigantic wip
Just made him yesterday, so he's subject to change, but the basic rundown on him is that he's basically just a cute old man in a younger body. He works for the government on a sort of on-need basis as a spy or whatever they need. He's pretty suburban otherwise. He's the type to go to homeowner's association meetings and he teaches at his neighborhood's high school when he's not in the field. He's mute, mostly because of trauma inflicted on his vocal chords that he got on a pretty gnarly job. He only talks when he's really shocked or it's really important. Otherwise, he signs or just mimes stuff if the person doesn't know sign language.


Selene
profile
Kind of like Wonder Woman, but not a god or an Amazon and she has a gigantic well of grief and mental problems and she's gray. She's a very high fantasy and very prestigious bounty hunter, but she accepts jobs for free all the time because she's trying to repay the world for her wrongdoings.


Vilen
profile
Almost the worst person you will ever meet, but he's so charming. Then again, he'll steal the watch off of your wrist if he thinks he can, so. The charm is debatable. He's perpetually on the run from the government for his past crimes and his inability to not break into safes that he has no business for being in. He's going to need a redemption arc if you're looking for romance with him. Otherwise, he's always down for cocktail parties and partners in crime.


Requirements

- Two paragraphs for casual character interaction when we don't need a lot of exposition, three when there's more to happen in a moment, anywhere above for anything else. I understand that if a scene is based on dialogue, the post is going be rather short, but if the characters are apart or you don't need to end a post for my character's actions, please fill in the space. I typically write anywhere from two to ten paragraphs.

- Understanding of the fact that IC is IC and OOC is OOC. X character can be an asshole if they see reason to be, and it's not a reflection of how I think. X character is very bad at reading situations and people, and their problematic thoughts and opinions and conclusions are not mine, they are theirs.

- Decent activity. I try to reply within at most three days and have been replying within thirty minutes as of late because it's summer and I'm out of school and all that. You can tell me if you're not enjoying what I post and are slow because of it, and we can try to work something out and decide if our styles are compatible. You can tell me if you're going somewhere and won't be able to reply. I really won't mind. But please be somewhat considerate, because just not knowing is a little bit stressful. Are you okay? Do you not enjoy the roleplay? Am I doing something wrong? Just lemme know.

- A pretty adept understanding of the English language, and how grammar works alongside that knowledge. Please know where to put your commas and your apostrophes and where not to, as well. Please know to put quotation marks around what the character is saying and please also know which words are allowed to be together, as well, like saying 'an apple' instead of 'a apple.' Please know how to construct complex sentences and compound ones and please know to vary which kind of sentences you use so that it's not repetitive and all that.


Thanks for reading. I hope we can start something up!

Hello, I'd like to role play. Your characters are fairly intriguing.

I can definitely see Neo and Gray getting into trouble together. I've got a very loose idea of something we could do between them, so just PM me if your interested! :)
Sparkanine

OH HI THERE!

OKAY; so here is my first question- how much romance are you looking for: just kissing and hugging or are you looking for sexual interactions, or perhaps just seeking for the rp to fade to black?

NEXT; I have babies that would suit your babies and the stories would be... indescribable in my opinion!

Cassius x Caran
http://www.rprepository.com/c/caran
IDEA: They are both Important/Royal and kind of sort of don't want to take on the roles that their parents and people expect of them- both have run away from their home and are being hunted by their family in order to ensure they return home to take up the roles that are expected of them. The two end up meeting one another and decided they might have a better chance at evading their pursuers together- the longer they spend together the more they learn about one another and the more they fall for each other as they overcome many other obstacles and dangers of the world. OR at least something along these lines~ ;3


Gray x Althea
http://www.rprepository.com/c/althea
IDEA: They are attending the same college, perhaps they share classes- maybe even it is a strict college where students MUST stay in a dorm. We can do something along the lines were the dorms can either be Male and Female only dorms (if we do this and want them to be roomies, maybe on or the other dorm is full, or both, and they end up having to share a small house together on campus); or it can be both sex dorms and they are dorm-mates or we can do the small house idea. ANYWAY, if we didn't want the strict dorm thing, Althea lives in a rather nice home- a way for there to be some 'action' she could be walking home from a late night class, alone, and ends up being mugged/attacked and perhaps your 'frat' boy comes to the rescue. OR YOU KNOW- whatever! Because like with college kids anything can happen I am hyped for this one honestly... <3 Maybe we could even do something like Gray is the popular guy everyone knows him and Althea is the quiet shy girl that no one really knows exists and they end up being forced to become study partners or for extra credits Thea takes on tutoring and she ends up with Gray and blah blah blah- like I said.. SO MANY OPTIONS LALALALA! :D So... Yea!

Personally; I prefer Para to Multipara style (I love the detail...), always in the third person, then as for limitations, I do not have any, I am okay with sexual stuff, profanity/language, and violence so. :) Hit me up with a PM if you are interested!

Skylar Beaumont (played by Guardian_Girl)

Hello. I would love to do an rp with either Cassius or Vilen. I just threw Skylar together last night, so she's not very complete yet. She could work for a medieval, or modern setting. I might have a couple ideas in mind.

I'm fine with any level of romance, honestly. Whatever your preference is is my preference. if you just really need to know, though, it's on my profile.

I wouldn't say that Cas is running from his people; he stays within his kingdom, and sleeps at the palace, and eats there at least four times a week. Maybe Caran could run through cas' kingdom, and they run into each other? Her staying would be highly unlikely since the towns around Cas's home tend to have guards patrolling them, and her kingdom would probably declare war if they found out he was harboring her. He'd know this and probably send her off, too, since he's pretty smart. There just might not be a way to get them together.

Althea and Graham would be more likely, but Graham would also use the heck out of her if they were put together in a project and probably coerce her into doing all the work so he could leave to go hang out with his friends. She'd have to manage to be assertive while at the same time kind and she'd have to seem reasonable all on top of that in order to get him to do anything. From what I'm seeing on her profile, she isn't the type. Also, dorms wouldn't work, because if we're going to have him in college and not in the military, like he's described being in on his profile, he's forgone actually going to college and is pretty much living with a bunch of his buddies in a split mortgage. She could manage to sneak in among them, but she'd need a friend that Graham knew before they would meet. There's also the question of where to end once we get that going - rps that don't have a definitive stopping point aren't that fun, I've found.

Can't wait.
I'm interested in RPing with your character Gray with Jason. Jason is very new and still a work in progress, but I still would like to. We can work out the details of a story if you're interested.
So I have 9 characters that if you find one that you like and have a pairing you would like to try out between one of my characters and yours that would be cool. My most complete set are the Yadomaru siblings and if you choose any of them it's likely that the others will follow at some point. The Collody siblings still have some work to be done between them and Alexandria doesn't really know that her brother exists so we could do something revolving around them. Other than that the rest are all works in process since I haven't had much time in the past few years to work on them and two of them I just made today those being Amabella, and Lyra. I honestly prefer romance but am flexible for other genres.
