Taco's Taco Truck! [High Casual-Advanced, Ignore Post Count]

[El Taco Taco]

Hi! I’m Taco/Alice. I’m an old fart who’s been roleplaying for well over ten years now, from tabletop to forums to Tumblr and everything in between. My favorite fandom is Harry Potter, and I’m up for a huge variety of original games. Feel free to suggest a plot to me, I love picking other people's brains!

My ideal partner writes 3-6 paragraphs a post, depending on what’s working best for the game. I like to be buddies with my partner, and I request a fair amount of patience. I recently finished school, but I have job hunting and house repairs to finish before I move. I love roleplaying, it’s one of my main hobbies, but there are going to be periods where you might go a month without a post from me. I’ll never abandon our game once it starts, but I have other priorities.

Roleplay wise, I’m about character development, drama, humor, action, and just plain *fun*. This is OUR game—let’s work together to create a game where we both want to tweak with the plot and throw wrenches at each other in a strictly figurative manner. I don’t mind romance. I enjoy it, actually, but it has to make sense and be somewhat organic. If it happens, it happens! Content wise, I'm pretty flexible. Mature themes are fine, but I'm totally content to fade to black. I'm not looking for PWP. Basically, let me know your comfort level and we'll be good to go.

That’s about it. Following this are my plots that I am favoring, because WOOSH they have starters already, aww yiss. After that is my standard list, which is just about always open. LET'S DO IT!

The Quidditch World Cup

A lot is riding on the 2002 Quidditch World Cup for England; after failing to qualify for the 1998 cup amid the terror of the Second Wizarding War, the country is eager to prove that not only are they ready to compete, they're ready to host.
I'm looking to play Katie Bell on the English team. If doubling is your thing, I also have a starter for Viktor Krum for this.

Katie Bell

Katie is my most developed canon. After Hogwarts, she plays for the Falmouth Falcons and forges a reputation as the most vicious chaser in the League. She copes with the war by not coping at all. I’ve shipped Katie with everyone under the sun; Cho, Krum, Charlie Weasley, etc. Marcus/Katie is my OTP but I'm totes open to other pairings.

Jumpers

As the Paladins get more and more aggressive, Jumpers have begun to coordinate their survival efforts. Building safe havens in the most remote corners of the world, several Jumpers have begun trying to not only get by, but eradicate the Paladins once and for all.
My starter begins with a supply run to feed a growing compound, and there's loads of room for plot and trying not to get killed.

Amaka Gaspar

Amaka Gaspar grew up in Las Vegas with her mother in a cramped apartment and their small dog. Despite money being tight, things were pretty good. She first jumped after absentmindedly running into traffic after her soccer ball, ending up outside the strip club her mother worked at. Her mother urged Amaka to keep her gift quiet and to avoid using it; like most six year olds, Amaka couldn't help but disobey. When her mother was working, Amaka was usually jumping, exploring the city and getting into mischief.
Her mother lost her job when Amaka was fourteen and bills started piling up. In all her brilliance, Amaka hatched a plan, and successfully robbed an armored truck.
Her mother was Not Pleased, but with few options, they paid off their debts and skipped town. They settled down in Portland and Amaka agreed to stop jumping. Unfortunately, they'd made it onto the Paladin's radar, and things went south. Amaka's mother died in the crossfire and she barely got away.
Eight years later, Amaka's somehow managed to stay alive. She's built a hidey-hole in the Maunsell Army Sea Forts, bringing in a generator and more supplies than you can shake a stick at.
Resourceful, organized, and crafty, Amaka lives is wildly impatient and not very considerate of others. Movie verse, even though the movie is terribad.

The First Wizarding War

I would love to play my Alice with a Frank or any other fellow Aurors/Order Members. I have a hella angsty starter after a Death Eater sparked fire ravages most of London. It can also be tweaked for a game with a Death Eater.

Alice Longbottom

I would love to write Alice either during Hogwarts or during her Auror days. I write her as a cousin by marriage to the Prewetts in a well-respected Pureblood family. I'm looking for fellow Order members, school friends, or a Death Eater to play cat and mouse with. I love Frank/Alice and my crackship is Rodolphus/Alice.

Harry Potter Canons

James Potter

James Potter, played in/post Hogwarts. I'd love to write him with a fellow Marauder, Order Members, or a feisty Lily Evans to match wits with my arrogant little toerag.

Ted Tonks

Theodore "Ted" Tonks. Played in Hogwarts as a Hufflepuff, during/post first war and during the second war. I usually write him as being around four-five years older than the Marauders. He takes leave from the wizarding world after Hogwarts to work in his family bakery. I'd love to write him with Order members, school friends and, of course, Andromeda Black.

Seamus Finnigan

After Hogwarts, Seamus runs off to become a Curse Breaker. 10 years pass and, after a serious injury, Seamus is forced to return to England. Hogwarts welcomes him back with open arms to teach Defence Against the Dark Arts, and Seamus is trying to adjust to a life with considerably fewer explosions. I’m looking for old Gryffindor friends.

Lee Jordan

My second most developed canon. Lee becomes a broadcaster on the Wizarding Wireless Network after the war, advocating for good music and muggleborn rights. Lee feels guilty at how unscathed he’s made it through the war, and is trying to help his friends to seemingly no avail.

Victoire Weasley

An introvert in the Weasley clan, Victoire has always felt a little out of place. Although she loves her family dearly, she has never gotten on well with her sister Dominique and has felt enormous pressure to be a daughter worthy of her parents. A Ravenclaw, Victoire worked hard to earn Outstandings in all her NEWTs.
I'm looking to go a new direction with Victoire and write her misadventures Curse Breaking in Egypt. Tedtoire is lovely, but I'm open to all sorts of games.

Roxanne Weasley *

Calm, relaxed, and easy going, Roxanne is her father’s daughter. She tries to ignore her mother’s disappointment with her complete lack of interest in Quidditch and focus on being happy. A bit dyslexic, Roxanne takes comfort in her ability to look after her numerous cousins and her younger brother, but worries that she won’t measure up to her family legacy, especially after being sorted in Hufflepuff. I’d love to write her with her cousins or a next generation child.

Harry Potter Originals

Sφlvi Grendahl

No one in their right mind would picture Sφlvi as a murderer—but she is, reluctantly, just that. A Norwegian Arithmancer working with the Department of Mysteries, she’s destined for greatness. But Sφlvi’s beautiful younger sister Hjӧrdis gets involved with the head of the Adams family, Murdock. Her research in the use of number seven in ritual magic doesn’t seem useful, until her sister’s beau learns the deeper implications in her research—namely in the torturous side of ancient magic. With her sister’s safety on the line, Sφlvi’s nights are consumed with dealing with Murdock’s enemies. I’m looking for an Auror investigating the Adams family getting tangled up in the drama.

Parminder Advani

Parminder was fourteen during the Battle of Hogwarts, having been on the run from the Snatchers. After a rescue by a muggleborn Auror, she dedicated herself to preventing such a future to her younger brother. She returned to Hogwarts and studied hard to make top marks. Now twenty four and a talented Auror, she is often frustrated at the resistance to muggleborn rights still lingering in the Ministry. An incredible tracker, Parminder is the local expert on finding people who don’t want to be found. I have two plots; in one, she is tracking down a serial murderer of muggleborn children. In another, far fluffier plot, she gets involved with the hitman for the Gigliotti crime family while building her case against them.

Star Wars, Original

Aelyn Krael

A Zeltron mechanic, Aelyn got scooped by the Exchange in her early twenties. With no other opportunities on Nar Shaddaa, Aelyn reluctantly took the offer. A savant with a hydrospanner, she ends up maintaining everything from podracers to droids to yachts and frigates. Aelyn’s twin brother was force-sensitive and taken for Jedi training when they were young. This would take place about ten years before the Mandalorian Wars.

Borderlands

Maya

One of six legendary Sirens, Maya was raised by the Order of the Impending Storm. The Order painted her as a goddess and extorted the people of Athenas with the threat of her wrath. Maya disapproved. Liberating herself with bullets, she traveled to Pandora to learn more about her Siren heritage. I ship Maya/Axton and Maya/Krieg, but shipping is hardly necessary. Shooting bandits in the face, however, is necessary. I'd love to RP the main campaign, any DLC, or post game goodness.

Fiona

A con-artist and a narrator of questionable honesty, Fiona is first and foremost a survivor. Sarcastic and desperately loyal to her family, Fiona sees Pandora for what it truly is; a shithole. I’d love to play Fiona pre or during Tales from the Borderlands with any of the characters.

Avengers - MCU, smatterings of Earth 616

Natasha Romanoff – Black Widow

Let me preface this by stating that I'm not nearly anywhere up to date with Earth 616 as I'd like to be. I'm current with Hawkeye and I just started Young Avengers and Edmonson's Black Widow. I am a lifelong Marvel fan, though, and I'd love to write in MCU with some nods to Earth 616 (because I don't think Age of Ultron will have Kate Bishop or Pizza Dog and that is a crime against humanity).
I'm current with MCU except Agent Carter and Daredevil and I'd love to write Natasha's misadventures with the KGB or S.H.I.E.L.D. with any character. I'd prefer to write something prior to Winter Soldier, but I'm not super picky about this. Like, a post!Cappy 2 Bucky would be amazing to write with.
I’m a firm Clintasha shipper and I would just about die from delight to write with a Clint, but I'm eager to write with any of the Avengers and their associates. I'd just as happily write with a Cappy or Sam as a Pepper or Darcy.

Original Games

Mutants – Scream

Samantha Beverly Bray discovered her power singing Ave Maria in church, accidentally shattering the stained glass window with her voice. Her abilities started tame; perfect pitch, vocal mimicry, a frighteningly good sense of hearing. The first time she screamed, she flattened a wall. Sam is understandably freaked out by her powers. Sam can be played in the same game as Val or independently. Her mother, an Audiokinetic herself, left when she was young to work for the G-man and keep her family safe.

Off the Grid

Evelyn Kell has worked for MI-5 for fifteen years, earning a reputation for her ruthless, single-minded dedication to the job. Her partner of four years absconds with intelligence to sell in the middle of the night and Evelyn has the lovely job of tracking him down and bringing him in. Looking for someone to play her former partner.

Son of Hephaestus

Aden Conley is kind of an asshole. Snarky, bitter, and quick to fight, Aden spent most of his youth in and out of trouble. A welder for the shipyard, Aden’s really only happy when he’s working. A modern son of Hephaestus, his life is complicated by other obnoxious god-children and his total inability to hold his tongue. Pretty much the only thing in common with Percy Jackson is the whole gods banging mortals thing.

Daughter of Tyche

Sonam Maddox is a good luck charm made flesh. Her father, a talented con-man, involved her in his schemes at an early age, reaping the rewards of her lucky touch. Sonam periodically hits up slot machines and phones in to radio giveaways to provide her income. She’s just about the only person on the planet who can put up with Aden’s temper.
