This is an unusual check, as I don’t have a story or game in mind. Rather, I have a few characters that I’d like to re-use. These are all characters that either I really liked and want to play again, or didn’t even get to play at all.
Obviously, these characters were all written for specific settings and specific stories, but I’m interested in more of the general vibe of these characters, so a lot can be changed. There’s a lot of little details, but the big picture is more important.
I’ll leave a little note above each hider about the kind of RP they were in, and the kind of things I’d like to do with them. These notes are not the only options I’m willing to listen to just about any idea. The worst that can happen is I’ll say I’m not interested.
What I’m looking for: Either a 1x1 or a small group, no more than five players. A small group is my preference, I’ve had a lot of fun on this site with small, dedicated groups of three or four. I’m looking for partners rather than just players, though. I’d like to build the story and setting together.
Honestly, bonus points if you bring your own recycled character to the table. It might be fun to try to beat the concepts together until something new comes out of them.
I’m looking for a heavy focus on the characters and their relationships with each other. That can mean friendship, romance, familial kinship, as long as the characters are actually connected to each other in a way(whether that be from their histories, or due to the circumstances of the story).
I’m loose about post length expectations, but I’d like to see one round of posts in a week at least. I have no upper end to posting speed expectations; if we post multiple times a day that would be great! But it usually won’t work out that way.
As far as quality standards go: My measure of quality is based on whether what you said made sense or not. As long as we’re writing the same story, and you’re not ignoring lore in every post, I won’t get on you about grammar or spelling(unless you ask me to). Posts should move the story forward, or introduce new information.
NOTE: These character sheets have been copied and pasted almost exactly as they were in their original threads, and so contain story and setting elements that I did not write. I didn’t want to change these things until I knew what I was changing them to, so I left them intact for now. If you recognize a setting or concept that you made in here, rest assured that I won’t be using it.

Billy was written for a game where a loose social group all reunite for a high school reunion, and accidentally get super powers. While I think he has a really cool power, this character isn’t locked into being involved in a super power based roleplay(but it totally can be!). He was originally written to be a mundane character getting sucked into an extraordinary adventure, so things of that nature are on the table.
He obviously seems like he’s primed for a band roleplay. I’ve never done one, but it might be interesting. Maybe band gets super powers? Maybe “retro 70’s cartoon revamped for the modern age” style story where a band frequently and inexplicably deals with supernatural threats and mysteries?
I did like the reunion story, so I’d be willing to retread that ground a little, though definitely not the same setup. Combining with the previous idea, there could be something in reforming an old band or something like that.

Cyberpunk can be a grim genre, but I’d like to keep things a little more light-hearted. That doesn’t mean clean and peaceful. I’d love some good old fashioned hyper-violence, but I don’t want to get angsty about it, you know? I’d prefer the tone of Borderlands to Cyberpunk 2077.
This character can fit in a lot of places, and other than that tonal preference, I don’t have any real limitations, though the character is meant to be days old at the start of the story.

Princess Fazra is a particular favorite. She was written for a roleplay centered around a school for badly behaved royals, the gag being that she was a perfect heir who was sent there by accident. She’s a fun character, easily misunderstood by casual acquaintances. I’m going to be pretty strict on what orcs are like if I use this character, so be prepared for that. She can fit in a lot of medieval roleplays, and there’s a lot of fun tropes that she can fit into pretty easily.
