I feel like it's been a while since I've done any kind of search here. Not because I haven't been on, I still get on regularly to reply to roleplays I already have. But I had as many as I could handle before, not any more as I've had several die for various reasons, so now that I'm doing good to catch up to the already existing roleplays I want more. I've actually been on the prowl for a while, but didn't really give many here much of a chance as 1. I'm not a fast replier, 3. I wasn't sure what I wanted and 3. it seems most people here want mature roleplays which I do not do. However I don't really have anything to lose by creating a thread and seeing if I get any bites.
So first off a couple things we ought to get out of the way to determine if we're a good match.
Fair warning, I talk a lot.
Like I already said I'm not a fast replier, as a general rule of thumb I reply to everything once a week, unless you like bugging me. In which case kittens will be necessary.
I'd like to say that I'm not picky about length, that I don't care what skill level my partner is at, or that I'm willing to give anyone a chance, but frankly one or two liners don't do it for me. I can reply anywhere between 4 paragraphs to a novel depending on what's going on and what I have to work with and that is how I like it. I love reading and writing so not being able to do as much of that as possible seems to defeat the point for me.
I like character driven roleplays. Meaning plot isn't as important to me as character development and relationships. I didn't used to think this mattered but I guess some people just prefer their roleplays being plot heavy and get bored without that. Not to say I don't like plots, but plot for me comes after characters.
Now on the subject of maturity and limits, I'm afraid I'm going to be weirdly particular. I don't do smut, that is I don't write those things out, feel free to imply your character sleeping with the entire town I don't really care how much sex they have, just don't make me read the details. However I have no problem with violence or gore. I'm not into fluff and I do so love angst but I'm going to confuse you further, nothing non consensual. I realize it's odd to be OK with murder and not rape or anything, I don't care. It's a personal matter, it's none of your business, this is for fun, and it is a deal breaker.
So moving on to face claims and character sheets. If you like them than great, whatever floats your boat. I do do character sheets but don't share them unless requested to. I do sometimes do pictures, not really face claims as I only use my images for a variety of reasons, feel free to use whatever you want. Photos, anime, any other type of drawn image. I'm just saying this because if you don't like drawn face claims then I need to know to avoid using them. I'm still not going to go out and find a photo, if I have to I'll stick to written descriptions.
On a slightly related note I almost solely play males, I have mad exceptions and have played transgender males, but those were under very particular circumstances so I wouldn't count on being able to convince me to play females. Side characters and NPCs are another thing, sometimes you gotta throw them in and I am willing to play them but I expect you to be able to pull your weight and play them as well. Where romance is concerned I'm not terribly picky. Romance is great if it works and I don't particularly care what gender you wish to play or what ever sexuality you prefer. I like to think I can play a pretty wide variety of character types.
Alright so, while I do have some plots, it's gonna take me a bit to remember them all so I'm not going to post them all right away. I'll just add them in separate posts as I think of them. I have quite a many OCs (my babies) I wouldn't mind playing but I also don't mind starting from scratch.
As far as what kind of plots I like, I like to feel I'm fairly versatile. I love fantasy most of all but I also love horror, lovely drama, romance...I'm not too fond of fluff or comedy but in my not so humble, humble opinion, most plots regardless of genre can't be hurt by having some light hearted moments. I'm not a history buff but am still willing to do roleplays that span whatever time frame you want. Same goes for place thought I'm not surprisingly not a cultural expert. Then I don't usually say no to some kind of crime drama.
I'm not really looking for fandom based roleplays right now, for the most part. I guess if I'm looking for anything in particular it's some kind of fantasy, preferably high fantasy, though I don't usually say no to a good plot regardless.
I can't really think of anything else relevant, anything I do think of I'll just add it as it comes to my mind.
