To Novel... Arturian Romance

[Dr Jekyll]

We know the story, now let us retell it in our own voice, using the classic as a template to guide us along the way. I request the assistance of one skilled in the art of romance and the inner workings of conflict and story to tell the greatest of love stories: that of Sir Lancelot and his lady Guinevere. Ours will be a four part lovers den, borrowing from the legendary epic of King Arthur himself.

What I will need from you is thus:

TWO characters, both of female gender: The beautiful and passionate Guinevere, and the loyal and tragic lady of Shallot. Peace, mind you that our story is not simply one of love, but conflicts with a web of emotion that crosses as though knit by the fates themselves. our tragic lady loves our gallant knight, who loves our beautiful and lovely queen, who in turn is possessed by her husband, the King. The knight believes himself entrusted to the lady, and is conflicted by desires to see her happy, while at the same wrestles with the love of a woman already spoken for. She is forbidden, and yet he can desire nothing more.

Our play will contain mature themes. Please do not respond if you wish to steer away from this.

Our play will contain endure. Please do not respond if you don't have time or wish to put time into a project.

Our play will contain art. Writing is a craft, please be able to supply at least 6 paragraphs on average. (This is an average, NOT a requirement. Some will be shorter, others longer. I'm looking for a novel player, not simply an advanced one).

Our play will be imaginative. i'm not expert on cannon or medieval life, so no complaints about inconsistencies.

Our play will be involving: I intend a cast. You may double. I know I will. Characters along the way will die.

What I promise to you:
2 posts a week (min) between the days Monday - Friday (if there are posts to respond to!)
Conversation: I do chat. I love to get to know who I'm playing with, so I will PM, and possibly create an OOC tread.
Understanding: i'm easy going. Something not going the way you want it to, let me know. Don't suffer in silence, that leads to dead roleplays. I want to start something that'll be around this time next year (min).


I'm anxiously anticipating your response, and I can't wait to meet you.

I'm very interested. While I am not completely familiar with the Arthurian legend, I can do some research to improve my knowledge. I am very happy to provide at least two or more posts a week, of a decent length and very well written. I suppose I can multi-character, but I've never really done it before, so I'll do my best. I can mature RP, either tastefully or not tastefully, the only thing that puts some people off is my age. I guess because a lot of people are American, they don't think it wise to RP with a 16 year old. Understandable, but infuriating. PM me if you wish, I can provide samples of my writing (I think, I lost my memory stick with most, if not all of my RP posts, profiles, everything.) if you need them.

I look forward to hearing your ideas...
