Hello everyone! Hope this post finds any of you generous enough to click my humble interest check well. Thanks for your time, and hopefully you'll find something that piques your interest below!
I've been writing for over decade now, but, I've been out of the game for a while for a variety of reasons. I'm looking to get back into it though! Which is where you come in. Hopefully...
I think I would honestly best describe myself as literate, but lazy. Somewhere in the range of three to five paragraphs is really where I think I could be comfortable now days, but if we really connect and I can push my muse, I'd love to be able to get back to the point I can write more.
Schedule wise, I don't have the ability to post every day. Lots of other responsibilities and stuff, you know? A quality post every three to four days, maybe even once a week, is probably the best I'm going to be able to do. If I can't keep up that schedule though, I'll do my best to let you know, since I love to talk and goof off with my partners OOC too.
I'm not the type to make hard set rules. But, knowing what I like in an RP might help you decide if you think we mesh well.
First, I really enjoy the reading and writing aspect, so I'm looking for someone else who feels the same way. Posts that are the most enjoyable to read are not too short, are detailed, contain the character's emotions as much as their actions, and add to the plot. The kind posts that I can tell you had fun writing, are the ones I'll have fun reading.
Also, since I mentioned my own schedule being hectic and my posts not being more frequent than one or two a week -or less- then I'm perfectly comfortable with, and in fact prefer someone who has their own things going on, and understands, maybe even prefers, a slower pace.
Some of my favorite roleplays have been with people who were learning my language as a second language. It's not about grammatical perfection, Hell, I've probably made some mistakes here in this post. But effort is awesome! And I can't write well with people who don't want both my best, and their own.
Oh, actually there is one hard and fast rule. I can't write well in first person, or with people who write in first person. Sorry if that seems weird. But, third person please.
I enjoy playing multiple characters, so if you also did, that'd be great. There are way more than just two people in the world, and I definitely don't have the energy to write them all. (The exception to this is if I'm DM/GMing for you in something like an adventure story. But this is a special case and will require planning and input from you in other ways.)
My main characters are usually men, because I'm a man, and it's easier to be inside my own psyche. I will write women too, though, as side characters.
If you want romance in the story, let me say up front I'm really only any good and writing MxF romance. Not that there's anything wrong with any other kind, I just can't do it justice in writing. But if you don't want romance, that's also fine, I'm mostly here for action and adventure and stuff too.
Another big thing is communication. If we're in a roleplay, and you're not happy about anything, please ask me to change it. That's very okay with me. I want you to be happy and comfortable. I'd rather change a plot than lose a partner and/or upset someone. Or if you're just not into the idea after all, and want to discontinue an RP, please let me know that as well.
Finally, I guess the last, and probably most important thing is that I am over twenty one, and would prefer to write with others who are also over twenty one. Not because of any kind of sexual content, honestly, but just because of violence or other potentially objectionable things. when I think 'mature content', I'm mostly referring to emotional and intellectual maturity. That being said, if there is going to be sexual content, I'm okay with that being in the RP, but I will admit writing it isn't my strong suit and we'd probably both rather have a fade to black than cringe through my attempts at smut. And the 'over twenty one' rule is very important and non-negotiable in the case of that kind of content.
Now, on to the good stuff. Or at least in my opinion. My plot hooks. I may include some suggested pairings with them, but the story concepts are the big thing here. Rather than figure out what two kind of characters we should lock ourselves into, I prefer to come up with the setting and plot, and then we can just be whomever we think fits into that.
In addition to these story ideas, I have a ton of characters lying around that I just desperately want to get to play. So if you liked what I had to say, but didn't feel a connection to any of these plots, feel free to offer your ideas and I'll see if I have anyone that fits them.
If you made it all the way to the end, thanks for reading this far!
