Hello everyone~ I'm ShyMoon19 though I tend to just go by Shy.
I'm 23 and I've been roleplaying/writing on and off for about 11 years. My love of RP started shortly after my friend introduced me to it through anime character RP over various chat rooms. I branched off after a while into a 3D avatar social app where I started making OCs and got more serious which lead me to pick up writing. After that my passion died down but then I found a community on twitter where I could show off my OCs again and RPed there for several years until the community unfortunately died. I stuck to myself after that happened until I met my friend through another shared interest and we found out we both enjoyed writing and RPing. Since then we've done various RPs together. However I'm looking to branch out and make more friends/RP partners so I can learn and grow more as a writer. I like to think that the several years I have under my belt have helped me become at least a somewhat decent writer but I know I definitely have my moments where I struggle.
When it comes to my preferences in terms of Roleplay I tend to heavily favor Fantasy settings but I do enjoy my fair share of modern, slice of life, high school, dystopian, apocalypse, and many other genres. The main genre I don't dabble in is Sci-fi due to my lack of knowledge and interest personally. Everything else though is free game if we can come up with an interesting plot. I'm accustomed to both 1 on 1 RP and small group RP as well so I am fine with either though it may take me a bit to get readjusted to a group after such a long time doing only 1 on 1 but I'm definitely not against it. As for pacing I enjoy both fast-paced back-and-forth and large complex stories with longer posts so it really is up to my partner(s) to set the pace that's right for them and the RP. I myself try to do at least 1-2 paragraphs when I reply but I have my moments where I struggle to do so. And sometimes the complete opposite also happens where I write waaaay more than I intended.
While I've mostly stuck to OC Roleplay in the past few years I do still enjoy anime/manga/tv show/movie character roleplay as well. I have a wide variety of interests and muses when it comes to those various forms of media so if you're interested in knowing which ones/which characters feel free to ask me!
Other than roleplay and writing I am a huge gaming nerd. I play a lot of mmorpgs, sim games (the sims, stardew valley, etc), 1 player story driven games, and rogue likes. I also enjoy reading, listening to music, watching anime, and singing.
But yeah, that's basically the gist of me, at least on a basic level. I really hope I can make some lasting connections while I'm here.
