Shamoo's Search for the Unknown

Hey guys! I'm Shamoo, a 21+ female with almost two - oof - decades of roleplay experience. That being said, I may be new to the site but certainly not the hobby, and I'm hoping I'll find some partners here! I'll put a list below of what I'd like in a partner but, before that, I'll let you know a little bit more about my style! I consider myself high-casual, closer to advanced than casual, and like to focus on character relationships. I'm a sucker for romance, so if our characters click I'll ultimately opt for them to attempt a relationship if not only for drama's sake. That doesn't mean romance should be the only thing happening in the roleplay, so I do like an overarching plot and themes of friendship. I love both quality and quantity and, although I tend to mirror my partner's length, I can guarantee at least 500+ words per reply for those wanting the longer replies. I prefer to play females in MxF pairings; I realize, however, that the majority of this site so far seems to as well. I'll absolutely double with any pairing if you don't feel comfortable, or don't want to, solely play a male character.

I'm down for mature themes and NSFW content, although I admit I have the usual limits and oftentimes opt for more vanilla interactions. I'm not looking for PwP and would prefer that we detail scenes that are important and make sense, fading to black for all other intimate points in our stories. Let me know what your limits are and I'll be happy to abide by them! I do have some limits including anthro and 20+ year age gaps.



The short of it is, I'm looking for someone who is over 18, creative, easily excitable, and passionate about writing. Interesting characters, dialogue that leaves me wanting more, emotions and thoughts and feelings that make me understand why your character does what they do... I want that. As far as writing style, I will admit that I can be particular. In order to combat this, I'd like to offer one of my own writing samples for something you have so that we don't get super invested for things to only sputter and die out. As aforementioned, I am looking for someone to main a male character but am completely willing to double as whatever you wish! Along the lines of doubling, I do like to provide supplementary characters and would hope you do as well.

I'm not available all the time, and I doubt you are, either. There are sometimes days between my replies, sometimes an hour. In that vein, I'm not going to hassle you if it takes a week - or two - to get a reply. I would want for the same thing from my partner: patience. If you're a ghoster, that's okay. Sometime life gets in the way. If you do drop the roleplay and I love it, I'll likely pick it back up at any second. If I stop responding and you want to pick it back up after awhile, that's fine, too.

As far as genres, I'm happy to report that I can be interested in almost anything with the right plot. However, my butter-and-bread would likely be medieval fantasy, modern gritty slice-of-life, and World War II era plots. As far as fandoms I am fairly limited, mostly to Dragon Age and Mass Effect. I'll place a word bank below and bold my cravings. I do have some plots but not many... and honestly they're just generic starters. So I'd love to get something together that we're both excited about, invested in, and can gush over. 



love through loss / arranged marriage / modern / slice of life / 
medieval fantasy / gritty / detective x witness / World War II 
ancient civilizations discovered / Pride and Prejudice-esque / 
enemies to friends / Hurt-comfort / Dragon Age / Mass Effect
urban fantasy / Slow-burn / 1920's / apocalyptic / post-apocalyptic
dystopian / futuristic fantasy / "forbidden" romance



Roles that I prefer to play are bold. Most plots offer the ability to double apart from Vive la résistance.

Vive la résistance!
WWII, romance, time skips, war, enemies to lovers

Occupied France is no place for an orphaned family, but all one young woman can do is try. She has found her place in the Resistance translating German to French, attempting to find any small hint to what the Nazis plan. When one injured soldier stumbles into her family's garden shed, they must strike a deal: Shelter and care while he heals, protection from the Germans that inevitably will come through their small village.

French woman x Soldier (German, American, British)


The Rose City
history, adventure, romance, hidden civilization

Petra lies in Jordan, the past home of an ancient civilization that has long proven to fascinate 
architects and tourists alike. An earthquake, much like those that ruined the city and caused its 
residents to vacate, unearths new material that may lead to an amazing opportunity to peer into 
the lives of those who perished centuries prior. A group of scientists are selected; among them 
are a linguist, an archaeologist, a geologist, prestigious photographer, and a sociologist, among 
many others. When the earthquakes allow for enough space for the explorers to slip through, they find 
that perhaps not all life has left Petra but has, instead, been sealed away on purpose.

A Court of Despair and Desperation
medieval, political intrigue, arranged marriage, romance, +/- fantasy

Helios is reputable for their peoples' ability to purify and manipulate water. 
They have been entrenched in a war with your county for what seems like centuries; 
your country has no clean water, and the Helians refuse to give your people aid. 
It stems from the death of their beloved Crown Prince who, three years prior, died 
under suspicious circumstances when your dignitaries 
were invited to discuss country relations and recompense for services rendered. 
Since then, Helios has neglected to send any nobles to help with purifying water, 
leading to a war between the two countries. 

Helios is happy to continue the fighting until a new threat looms on their borders.
 The Murvechi, a race of creatures somewhere between elves and goblins, have become 
a bigger problem than you care to admit. Trouble looms at your borders as well, and 
one you are sure you won't be able to fight on your own. Others have decided they want
 your land for their own, and your armies - although well-known - have suffered 
due to the lack of sanitary water. You accept the offer of the Helian's sole princess, 
bound to you by an unbreakable promise: marriage.

Princess [F] x Prince or Knight [M]


Aeternum
post-apocalyptic, supernatural, betrayal, war

One twin, a man, located in one of the post-apocalyptic city-states 
is believed to be the Antichrist. Angels flock to find and kill him, while 
demons seek approval and aide his ascension into this now feral world. Humans 
scavenge to find resources and those that leave the city-states are never to be 
heard from again. Amongst this, the man's twin sister stays by his side and can
either run from him or help as he descends into darkness. But what powers of her 
own is she hiding?

Twin [F] x Angel/Demon [M]


The Ties That Bind
modern, murder mystery, small-town, romance, +/- supernatural

High school sweethearts end either in two ways:
an unhappy divorce in twenty years
or
heartbreak after graduation.

The latter occurred between your character and mine.
One stayed behind and invested in the town's future
while the other moved far, far away in hopes they would
never see their home again. Unfortunately, this wasn't exactly
the case and they've had to come back.

There's a swing nearby, where the high school sweethearts would
come to swing, to make out, and to speak of their dreams.
They've met again, shocked to find each other both changed and more
mature. Unfortunately the swing won't hold any future memories, as
the stench of death wafts towards them through the field.

Who's killing small-town innocents? And does it have anything to do
with the previous couple?

Craving: royalty x forbidden romance



I prefer roleplaying over PMs or GDocs, especially the latter
I do have a Discord for OOC chatter.

So if we sound like a good fit, PM me! Please don't post here as I likely won't see it.
