Blackfridayrule One Who Plays With Fire

Hey all. I've got a character that I haven't played with in a while and I've got an itch for a new roleplay. I'm looking for someone who will post reasonably often (I certainly don't expect every day or anything), put some depth into their posts, characters, and the world we build. Looking for someone who will create the story and the world with me, using our characters as a jumping off point.

The character I have in mind is a shapeshifter. His race has many names, including simply Shifters, Silverbloods (as their blood is a shiny metallic silver), or by their own they are called Vokurians. Some uneducated rural folk just call them demons. Tales tell of their inhuman azure eyes and their thirst for blood, and most young children have at one point or another been warned of Silverbloods catching them and eating them if they stay out too late. This couldn't be further from the truth, of course, as the Vokurian people generally like to keep to themselves and fear humans about as much as humans fear them. Humans, after all, make a business of hunting them down. The only good shifter, they say, is a dead one. Shifters are not permitted to buy or sell in human society, nor are they welcome to walk among them. But if properly subdued, perhaps they could make decent slaves...

My character's name is Rohaan. The world gave him few options except to turn to a life of crime, but if you ask him, he's not all that sad about it. He learned to steal to survive, but found he was good at it and it was rather fun. He makes a hobby of thievery, nay, a career. With few ties to anything or anyone, Rohaan travels often to see what the wide world has to offer him. He answers to no one, follows no law if it cramps his style, and will not hesitate to kill anyone who gets in his way. But that'd be a terrible mess, so he'd rather avoid it. Bold. Adventurous. Cocky. Fiercely protective.

I figure we can come up with a basic scenario in which our characters meet/get entangled somehow, and build from there as we see fit. Possible scenarios including but definitely not limited to:
-- Someone hires/convinces him to help them with something. Revenge? Obtaining artifacts? Massive heist? Wilderness survival for a journey?
-- A royal/politician/somebody important forms a weird, loose, tentative relationship with him, using him as a spy/saboteur in order to play the political game/do some espionage, either internally or between other nations, or both.
-- A pair of thieves, long time partners, stealin' stuff and doing whatever they please.
-- Or some other scenario you come up with, I'm open.

As far as the world building stuff, sky's the limit. There is magic, there are some mythical creatures like dragons and mermaids/sirens and things of that nature. Outside of that, we can do whatever sounds good. Want to have a full roster of different fantasy races? Neat. Want to have just humans and shifters? neat. Technological era should range between high fantasy and 17th century flintlock-pistols-and-the-likes vibe. Can be any mix of those too.

A few things I'm not looking for:
--Romance, blech. I won't squash it if it comes up sort of organically, but I prefer platonic relationships.
--Vampires/werewolves/angels/demons/zombies/undead.
--Short posts. Doesn't have to be a novel, but gimme something to work with here...
--Fandoms. Feel free to draw inspiration from wherever you like, but ultimately keep things 'original'.

Anyone in?
