**Updated**
If it's your first time popping by, please continue as usual.
If you’ve been here before, I have included a 3rd plot idea (titled “Exiled Fae Queen & the Prince’s Prophecy - Alternative Plot #2”) which I think fits this whole thing better. Also, I removed the backstory of the Vishari Prince (YC) but left a few notes. Please check it out. Smaller updates to the Vishari section, nothing huge.
Just wanted to say as well, most of the things I have written down for the Vishari are the lost ways. So, you’re building a new culture on top of what was there. Imagine walking into, I don’t know, the pueblos and you have no idea what anything does or how they lived or what the strange markings on the walls are, but you’re going to make it work because this is home - so, you make your own way of how things are done and how you live in the ruins of a time before you.
You don’t have to use pueblos for the Vishari. It’s an example.
Alright! Original post with the new updates starts now.
Hey! Welcome! Thanks for coming by.
Quick rundown of things:
18+: For maturity and also for more adult themes.
MxM: This is my jam. I rarely deviate from it.
High-Casual to Advanced: My typical posts can run around 300-500 words, sometimes less if less is needed. My typical intro posts can run around 500-1,200 words. I expect the minimum from you is 3+ paragraphs.
Creativity and willingness to speak OOC. I do have a discord for OOC chat if you prefer. I do love building worlds and things. It's kind of my favorite part of RPs. But I also don't really like being the driver for everything. So, please bring along your imagination and let's get freaky.
PMs only for RP.
Do not respond to thread - PM me.
I will request a writing sample and will provide a writing sample or two.
I only have one idea for this check and there is a lot of stuff that comes with it. If you have questions, please pm me.
Enemies to lovers crossed with fated mates type stuff. This is a fantasy realm but I am open to include some other aspects like a certain level of tech or whatever is on your mind. Just PM me if you've got interest and ideas.
I am looking for someone comfortable with dominant characters. The fae I have in mind for this is a stubborn, sassy hothead.
You’re the Vishari King/Prince. I’m the Fae.
Story background:
There has been a long and drawn-out war between two different lands, cultures, and races. The Fae live in one land, which is a lush forest-jungle. The other is a desert home to the Vishari. This conflict has lasted so long that no one can recall what the original offensive was. They continue to fight because each side believes the other has committed a heinous crime. With each passing year, hatred and fear between the two grows.
This third plot is the one I think that fits this whole thing best, so it's the one I really would like to do.

I will request a writing sample and will provide a writing sample or two.
I will post 1-2 times a week. Slowest is once a month.
I write in third-person. I expect third-person from you. Please no colored text or fancy text. It hurts my eyes to read.
I’ve never written s*x scenes before but I have always wanted to. This is NOT a requirement. It's just an interest to try my hand at. If you're interested, please let me know.
Communication is key. I have no problem editing, adjusting, or adding to my posts if you require more or less to reply, or if we decided to go down a different route for the story. If you've been having a bad week or month, let me know so I get you're still on board but need some time. Stuck on your post? Hash it out with me. We'll get through it.
If you're uncomfortable with anything, please speak up.

You’re the Vishari King/Prince. I’m the Fae.
Story background:
There has been a long and drawn-out war between two different lands, cultures, and races. The Fae live in one land, which is a lush forest-jungle. The other is a desert home to the Vishari. This conflict has lasted so long that no one can recall what the original offensive was. They continue to fight because each side believes the other has committed a heinous crime. With each passing year, hatred and fear between the two grows.
A Vishari Prince becomes the new King and sends a letter of truce to the Fae, proposing that the two lands come together and form a treaty of peace. Surprisingly, it was accepted, but only on the condition that the King visit their forest and debate the terms of the new treaty in person with the Queen of the Fae.
The new King meets his fated mate - the Queen's twin brother - in the Fae's forest.
After securing the peace treaty, the Vishari King returns home with his fated mate and new Queen. Together, they must survive a dangerous noble court still aligned with his father’s rule, as well as discover the lost ways while love blossoms between them.*
*I would like to start the RP when the King is visiting the Fae's forest.

*Please read the Vishari portion first. I’m sure it will make more sense after. *
After the tragic loss of his mother, the Vishari Prince swore that he would dethrone his father and revive the lost ways of his people.
Over time, he secretly built connections and a dedicated following grew under him. However, before he was to launch an attack, his plans were leaked to his father. His father mercilessly crushed the rebellion the Prince had raised, and ordered his best generals to kill the Prince.
The Prince barely escaped with his life; he was driven into exile, chased across his country and into the Fae’s forest.
In the Fae’s Forest, the Prince feels the familiar pull of the Goddess which he follows to find the lost Moon Temple where he also discovers his fated mate.
*I would like to start the RP when the Prince is running for his life and enters the Fae Forest.
**Also, he does get captured later after the mating ritual to face The Queen.

*Please read the Vishari and Fae stuff below. It makes way more sense after*
Note: I plan to use Version 2 of the Fae for this one. So, no magic but yes wings.
Also, the Moon Temple is hidden somewhere in the desert in this one.

“You are destined for greatness, my Prince,” the wisewoman said. Milky white eyes stared off into the distance. “You are touched by the Goddess and she will lead you to a life of honor and richness. However, it will end at a fork in the road and you will be forced to make a choice. This choice will bear down on those around you and, possibly, change the world.”
YC is a Prince with a Prophecy. Blessed by the Goddess, he can feel her summon him through an intrinsic link. Her pull is undeniable and he follows it to the Moon Temple where he meets his fated mate.
Prophecy can be made in his youth or later or can be made during his travels/adventures with Alistar. It’s up to you how you want to handle it.
—
Blessed by a strange woman in a dream (the Goddess), Alistar finds himself with a new pair of wings and a baby Mother Tree in his arms - marking him a full-fledged Queen. Instead of killing him right then and there, his sister, the current Queen, exiles him from the forest, banishing him for life. Her last parting words, “Cross the desert and plant the Mother Tree.”
Alistar ventures forth into the Vishari desert with nothing but the Mother Tree to guide him. Her pull lures him to the Moon Temple.

So, usually, I only have a few bullet points for my partner’s race/character so they can build whatever however they want. But this time I’ve spent a lot of time thinking of some aspects that are a must for this. So, please read this carefully. These are the foundations of your race and culture and religion. Feel free to build on top of this.
Sun and Moon - Creation Myth and Basis for Mate Ritual and Mates
Long ago, there was no sun, and the Vishari were children of the night, dwelling as four-legged beasts in the moonlight.
The moon danced in the sky. She danced so beautifully that anybody who saw her fell in love. One day, she danced too close to the land, waking the sun. When he awoke, he fell instantly for her vision and wanted desperately for her. The first rays of the sun fell upon the land as he rose to meet her. But the moon was terrified and fled. The sun pursued.
The moon stepped out of the sky and onto the earth for the first time. Wild, bizarre things bloomed where she stepped. The sun followed, and he left behind blazing footprints, a testament to his love for her. The moon raced across the land, trailed by the sun. The sun eventually caught her, bound her, and claimed her. He then bestowed some of his power on her cherished children, the Vishari. The Vishari were blessed with a second form that walked on two legs, mimicking the moon's beautiful shape. The moon was so pleased that she returned to the sky with the sun, where she dances for him every night and he rises every day to shed his brilliant light on her children.

Mate Ritual
Similar to the tale of the Sun and the Moon. It begins with someone who sees themselves as a sun praying at the Moon Temple seeking guidance to their mate. The Moon is thought to establish an unbreakable bond between them and their mate. The hunt then begins with the Sun pursuing the Moon. When the sun successfully captures their moon, they claim her as their mate.
When this rite was still practiced, the Sun would present their Moon with one of their canines from their Night-walker form, which the Moon would wear. The Sun would then receive a gold or silver replacement tooth, indicating that the individual is a Sun with a Moon.
-
Bond - is it real?
Yes. It is. The bond between YC and MC will be the first in a very long time.
I have a couple of ideas for this, but I have not settled on any one. So, we can discuss this together and see what we both would like.
-
Bond mark / first touch
I wanted something that stands out differently from typical fated mates - where there is a mark or a tattoo-like thing that shows up.
So, I thought, what if its not a mark but a spot on their body that when their mates touches/strokes/caresses it it puts them in a trance-like state or even a pleasurable state for a short while. Kind of puts them at the mercy of their mate. Which I think could be fun.
I was also thinking this could be a “first touch” thing where during the actual mating of the mate ritual, its the first touch of their new mate that is that sensitive spot. So, if limbs are flying, that first touch could be in a weird spot.
We can talk about this too and see what we both would like.

Sun & Moon mates
Vishari revere the Goddess of the Moon so much that they yearn to be a Sun in order to have the honor of having a Moon mate. Sometimes people arrive at the Moon Temple as Suns, only to find their mate already by their side during prayer. This usually requires determining who is the Sun and who is the Moon which is done between the two individuals.
A person who is a Sun are typically more dominant or more aggressive of the pair. They also have a tendency to be territorial/possessive about their moons.
Sun and Moon pairs call their mate “my moon” or “my sun” respectively of their “role”.
Ex: “Hello, brother. This is my moon.” Ex 2: “You look ravishing today, my moon.”
I don’t have traditional roles for the Sun and Moon. But you can create traditional roles/duties if you want. Also, I don’t have set expectations on who is sun or moon. Such as, a female can be a sun to a male moon.
However, when it comes to YC and MC, YC is Sun and MC is Moon.

*This will cover only recent history. I’m not going to cover the whole war.*
The Vishari have been able to take two forms since the Sun-Moon bond: their original night-walker shape and their gifted human-like form.
That is, until YC’s grandfather declared his people were weak because of their link to the moon. He blamed the moon for their failure to defeat the Fae. He prohibited anyone from returning to their original night-walker and forbade moon worship. Those who were dedicated to the moon were forced to resume their activities in secrecy. Wisewomen and shamans were compelled to flee. Anyone discovered, captured, or accused of worshiping the Goddess was publicly executed or tortured.
When the YC’s father took the throne, he followed the same rule, and the number of moon worshippers shrank or became more adept at hiding.

It is YC’s oath to resurrect the lost ways that won him popularity and public support. With his newfound might, he overthrew his father and seized the throne. He is currently adored by his people. Although, there are noble lords who profited under his grandfather and father's leadership or who sincerely believe in removing the Goddess of the Moon for the greater good of their people.
The moon temple has vanished as a result of the grandfather's statement and activities. The entire site simply vanished into thin air, existing one day and then disappearing the next.
Wisewomen and shamans recollect what it looked like. A stone pillar with an oblong shape carved on top and an opalescent blue moonstone inserted in its core. The moonstone is visible from all sides of the pillar. Smooth stone floor expands from the base of the pillar, with circles carved into the surface at regular intervals. The nearest circle to the pillar's base was 20 feet away. The interior of the circle was lined with markings that even the oldest wisewoman couldn't decipher.
The sun temple was lost long before the moon temple disappeared. Nobody remembers it.
-
Prayer
Vishari kneel and bow till their foreheads or the tips of their horns touch the ground when they worship. It is to make even the most powerful Vishari humble in the presence of the Moon Goddess.
Those seeking a mate or who have gotten permission from the temple wisewoman may worship in the Moon Temple's innermost circle. It is stated that if one prays on a full moon with the full moon's light striking the moonstone just right, one can hear the Goddess. If she grants your desire, the markings in the circle are believed to glow.

The Vishari are tall and powerful. The women are typically 6'4" tall, not adding the height of their horns. The average man stands at 6'8", with royal bloodlines averaging 7'2".
They live in the desert. I was thinking this will be a desert that has many, many different terrains. Kind of like Africa where there are dunes, flat plains, rocky terrain, low-lying green areas, and a massive water system that flows for a few months out of the year before drying up again.
They eat with their hands.
They love horses and are quite proud of their bloodlines, especially those that have been bred exclusively for racing. Because most adult men are considerably too hefty to ride the lightweight frames of their racing horses, they usually hire youngsters to do so. These jockeys are usually close family friends who can be trusted with the cherished animals.
To the Vishari, the color red represents many things, including life, fertility, and luck. It is used on a variety of occasions.
Vishari may growl, purr, hiss, and make other sounds. They also possess a fantastic sense of smell, and each individual has a distinct scent. Scents can be highly appealing.

Modifications to a Qilin (Kirin).
They have the body of a horse and clawed talons like a dragon instead of hooves. The back legs are more cat or dog-like, allowing them to sit like a cat or dog. Their mane is thick and lengthy and they have a tail like a unicorn. The head is horse-shaped, yet its mouth hinges like a dragon and is packed with predatory teeth. Its head is crowned by a pair of massive horns. Horns are more dragon-like than deer-like as shown in a Qilin or Kirin.
The night-walker's body is covered with fur, hair, and scales. Scales cover and protect the most essential regions of the body, such as the underside of the neck and belly. They start at the primary joints of their legs and work their way down to their talons. The scales vary in color, with males being brighter and more colorful than females.
There are distinct indicators in royal bloodlines. Fur thickens across the shoulders, resembling a lion's mane. Their scales glisten with iridescence, and their colors are unusual, such as peacock blue and majestic purple. Their tails are longer and more voluminous. Feathering (longer pieces of fur) occurs on the back of their legs. If they are male, they have a thick beard that grows along their jaw line and tapers to the chin, similar to a goat's beard.
The most common coat colors are brown, black, or grey. Black manes and tails are common. This applies to everyone, including royal bloodlines.
Royal lineages are 10 feet tall at the shoulder. Everyone else's average height is 8 feet.

Very similar to a demon.
They have horns and a tail, which reflect their night-walker form. They have clawed hands and normal feet. Their skin color ranges from mocha to ebony.
I’m not sure about including scales in this form. I was thinking the belly and their forearms. But I don’t know. You can add the scales or not. Up to you.

These are notes to be considered in creating your character.
He is of royal blood and comes from a long history of Kings. He can be the current crown-prince, positioned to succeed his father. He can be the 2nd/3rd/4th/5th/whatever number prince. In short, he is a son of the current King whether or not he is to succeed the throne.
Connection to the Goddess - Only wisewomen and shamans have a powerful link to the Goddess and are able to hear her words. Your character’s connection isn't that strong, but when she summons him, he feels her pull. It is the Goddess' connection that takes him to the Moon Temple where he meets his fated mate.
Night-walker: At this time in Vishari history, the Night-walker form is nearly forgotten. As a result, YC is unaware of his ability to change forms. He is also unaware of the night-walker form.
Still learning about the lost ways. Knows about the Sun and Moon myth and bonded mates.*
*Optional. Because you might create a character that has been raised in an environment that does not abide or entertain the ideas of the lost ways and I want that to be open to you if you chose to do so. But if he does know the lost ways, then this is the limit of his knowledge.

The Fae inhabit a beautiful and dense forest. They have pointy, longish ears and porcelain skin with subtle warm undertones. The majority choose lengthy hairstyles that are meticulously braided and weaved into distinct patterns. Their clothes are light and flowy, with bright colors and intricate needlework. Most people walk barefoot.

A seed of light descended from the Ali-star and planted itself in the ground. The Mother Tree grew from that seed, and as she grew, so did life, and the forest was born. The first Queen emerged from the Mother Tree's roots with a crown of red hair. The first Fae folk appeared after her.
The first Queen is so connected to the Mother Tree that she can hear the Mother Tree's voice while others cannot. The first Queen led the first Fae to a thriving and prosperous life with the help of the Mother Tree.

All Queens are born under the Ali-star and are all named Alistar in honor of the Ali-star. When the young queens are old enough to leave their mothers, the resident Queen takes them in as her own and teaches them about their connection to the Mother Tree, their history, and their magic.
The Mother Tree connects to all Queens. A Queen cannot exist without a Mother Tree, and a Mother Tree cannot exist without a Queen. Queens never left the Mother Tree or their forest.
All Queens are born with red hair and green eyes and are masters of all magic.
If more than one Queen is born, only one becomes The Queen. This can happen in a variety of ways, but typically, illness in early life reduces the number of Queens. However, if numerous Queens survive and are trained by the current Queen, they must compete for the role of the next Queen. This always results in the victor being the sole survivor.
However, for the first time in Fae history, a pair of Queen twins were born. The twins adored one other and couldn't bear the thought of hurting one another. As a result, one queen vowed his allegiance to the other, and she succeeded to the throne.
Queens can be male or female.

The Mother Tree gave life to the first Queen and Faes. She is also the final resting place for all Queens and Faes. They are placed on her roots, and her roots draw in the bodies, burying them deep in the Mother Tree.
The Mother Tree herself is small, barely reaching 10 feet in height, yet her roots grow thick and strong at her base, breaking the earth around her. Her root system is also extensive. Buried deep in the earth, her roots spread throughout the entire forest. In the forest, she senses everything. She can also alter the forest, changing rivers and rearranging trees.

Prayer to the Mother Tree
Every Fae has access to the Mother Tree, where they pray on their knees with their hands together and their fingers straight. Fae can ask the Mother Tree for anything, but she does not always respond or provide.
-
Offerings
Fae may make offerings to the Mother Tree such as special alcohol or a portion of successful hunts.

She accepted the Moon Temple's presence and concealed the Moon from both Fae and Vishari. Except for the Vishari King and Alistar, the fae queen who isn't Queen.

A bright red star that flies across the sky every few decades.
All Fae are endowed with magic because they were born from a being birthed from a star. Not all Fae are equal in their powers. Magic is divided into categories, and a Fae is a master of only one. Queens, on the other hand, are masters in all categories, even developing abilities outside of the traditional divisions.
Categories are the elements: water, wind, fire, and earth.
Magic is not just control of the elements, it also encompasses other abilities Such as:
Breath/wind - masters of this category can perform telekinesis and teleport short distances.
Water - masters of water can heal and perform divination.
Fire - masters of fire conjure inanimate objects and create, control and manipulate electricity.
Earth - masters of wood can bind or trap a living being in time.

Responds to “Al”, “Ali”, or “Alistar”. “Star” is his sister. Slow to respond to “Queen”, “my Queen”, or “my moon”.
Alistar is a fae queen and twin brother to the current Queen.
His magic is sequestered by his sister when he pledged his allegiance to her rule. -> if using original plot line
He gave up his wings to his sister, pegging his allegiance to her rule. When MC gets his wings back, they are the size of when he gave them to his sister, so he can’t fly because their size is too small for his stature. -> if using the exiled fae queen plot
Connected to the Mother Tree.
He has never left his forest and has never seen a Vishari in-person.
Scent: sandalwood and jasmine

Essentially the same as version 1, except they have no magic.
Instead, they have wings. 2 sets of 2 wings, with the largest pair above the smaller pair. They sprout from their back around the shoulder blade area. They wear skin-tight clothes instead of version 1’s airy clothes.
Queens have massive and decorative wings, and when folded down their backs, the wings can trail behind them like the train of a dress.
Most Fae have angular wings built for flying in the tight spaces of a dense forest-jungle.
Similar to Version 1 of the Fae, my fae will have given up his wings to his Queen to mark his loyalty to her. So, he will have no wings. But I do have a plan on getting them back.
