Pardon the half hearted title and let's get this going.
Hello everybody!
First things first, I'm Valkan here - as you probably noticed. I've been roleplaying for quite a long time, but I've had my on and offs. In roleplayerguild, I'm only a few days old which means I'm new here and also new to a large majority of formats you guys creatively have. I used to roleplay in world of warcraft previously. As for myself, the person behind this odd nickname in this forum, I'm twenty years old, I'm a rather casual person and I have a somewhat active life. I work full time during the week and spend most weekends drinking and trying to have fun with my friends. Why would this interest you? Well, if you'd like to start a roleplay with me, keep in mind my replies will be somewhat slow.
I like to consider that I'm quite friendly, a bit shy admittedly, but still friendly enough to get an ongoing conversation. In fact, I'd rather if you enjoyed to talk and chit-chat with me when we're working on something together. It opens up space to discuss the plot, the characters and actually get more stuff done. As for my expectations, they're fairly simple:
β’ I believe in quality over quantity, however, I expect my partner to give something to work with and reply to. No one liners, no text speak and etc. You get the gist.
β’ I think that for a roleplay to develop, both parties must somewhat dedicate to it. I for one, don't enjoy submissive characters - however, that's still good to go if you add to the story. Submissive writers, however, is a big-no. I won't do everything on my own to move the plot along. Contribute. Discuss. Talk with me and we'll get along very well!
β’ Romance is a possibility, but not the focus. The focus is the story and development of the characters, if they happen to fit in this context of romance, good.
β’ And on the above matter, I prefer to roleplay male characters, however I don't exactly care about the gender of my character. I do not do MxM pairings though, sorry.
β’ Don't bring boring, ridiculously powerful, perfect characters into the story. I'm sorry if this sounds blunt, but yeah - Mary Sues are just difficult to deal with.
And that's pretty much it. Now, because I have 0 set plots now, I'll just list below a bunch of themes that I enjoy. If something is of your interest as well, shoot me a PM so we can discuss further.
β’ Heavy Fantasy (Urban, Medieval)
β’ Fantasy in general
β’ Slice of Life, especially darker themes (drugs, violence, etc)
β’ Superhero-kinda stories
β’ Some fandoms (Naruto, PokΓ©mon, The Walking Dead - boy, I forgot many others but I'll add more. Also, OCs only)
And that should do it, pretty much.
