Hi there, I'm a writer in his 30s in GMT timezone and I'm looking for some partners for an idea I've had which I'm going to outline below. I'm looking to play a main male character opposite a main female character, but as part of any good story we'd be writing NPCs and additional characters too so I'm looking for someone who's willing to take their fair share of that. Also I'm looking for someone who's able and willing to bring the plot along, as much as I've come up with these ideas I don't want to be the only one who advances the plot.
I'm happy to write on Discord or Google Docs and I'm usually around during the week to write and chat. I don't tend to be online at the weekend so I'm looking for someone who will be patient and I'll of course be patient with you too. I think as long as we communicate then there should be no issues. I'd say I'm an advanced/novella writer but the actual length of posts will depend on the scene and what I'm given to work with.
Now, onto my plot idea. These are mostly outlines of where things can start, we can talk more about the idea and come up with the details together.
This one is sort of inspired by Dune, but only vaguely, it's also got influences from things like A Song of Ice and Fire/House of the Dragon, but with a sci-fi spin. The setting would be noble houses but in space, there's an overarching Empire and your character is part of it. The previous Emperor was a good man, loved or respected by the majority of his subjects. Your character is one of his children and my character is part of a regiment that's assigned as her honour guard.
The night that the Emperor dies, his brother (your character's uncle) launches a coup and manages to kill or capture most of the Emperor's family. Your character is the only one who escapes, with help from my character. They flee to the outer edges of the Empire, far from the capital and they need to try and build things back up from there, deciding how to return and take the throne away from the usurper.
Like I said this is basically something like Game of Thrones in space, with intrigue and alliances and all that fun stuff.
If either of these sound interesting to you please get in touch via Discord (I'm Danko2), I'd love to hear your thoughts and discuss the ideas more and see what we can come up with. Something I should mention is that I like using face claims of real people and I'd really love to play opposite someone using Phoebe Bridgers or Milly Alcock as their face claim, but that's not a dealbreaker it would just be a bonus for me.
I look forward to hearing from you!
