Edit: this board is (technically) closed for now. You can still PM me if you think we're destined to be together and I may make space. =P
Summary of what I need/would like from you:
- I do not gender- or age-discriminate as long as you can rp to advanced level (this applies both in-character and out).
- No matter whose plot idea is used in the beginning, I would like you to take at least some of the creative burden in the long run, coming up with plot turns and NPC's, etc.
- I don't like romance very much. A little snippet of romance is okay when it comes naturally, but I really won't appreciate it if you force it into the story/try to pitch me a romance novel. I don't appreciate tags like 'mxf', 'fxf' etc.
- Doubling-up is absolutely fine.
- I won't fill the roles of specific characters in your plot ideas. I like having my freedom when it comes to character choice, and I won't typically want to create a character on the spot just for you.
- Romance aside, I'm not puritanical about anything else to my knowledge. Gore, violent language and irreverence towards 'dark' subjects - you can even be gratuitous with it and I wouldn't care.
- I like to chat OOC on the side. I don't mind hearing about your day if you're so inclined.
- I like being surprised, and I won't expect you to reveal your planned plot turns to me in advance (they don't even have to be planned - spontaneity is a virtue in my opinion). That said, I'll expect to be left leeway for my character's reaction. That's pretty basic stuff that probably doesn't need reiterating.
- Lastly and important - please approach with at least a fleeting idea of what you want to do. Indecision is a real time-waster, so just pick something, because I would have picked something for you anyway, and I don't want to spend time asking if that choice was 'alright with you'. An ideas-stack and plotlist is placed below for inspiration.
Please PM me when you're done. =) And thanks very much.
Ideas-stack (i.e. plot-elements I love and will most likely include):
Gender-subversion: physically-strong female characters and effeminate male characters; serious plots overlaid with humour; unlikely friendships; psychokinesis, ESP and paranormal investigation; alchemy, cartomancy and the occult; dream-diving; magical realism; fantasy quests in 'low-fantasy' environments (ye olde dung-squelching peasant times); extensive travelling; exotically foreign kingdoms at the far corners of the world.
Plotlist:
1. Roadtrip
2. Shangri-la
3. AIAS (Parodic magical realism, originally meant for multiple players, but will work for just two).
- Welp, my one rp partner has dropped out, so it's time to find some new ones. This will be a straightforward search for 'advanced' level rp-ers, meaning: fluent, flowing writing that describes something sharply in little space. Posts should be substantial but should reach its length naturally - not through reiteration and sentence-padding. I typically like a lot of things to happen in one post so I get a really dense, fleshy post to read in the morning, but you can describe one action or event in beautifully vivid detail and I think I'd be just as happy. (Attention-to-detail should be distributed appropriately according to subject but since this is RP, we're allowed to self-indulge a little).
- I do write for fun more than anything, but like anything I do, I'd like to improve at it, so I ask you to take your writing somewhat seriously like I do. That I'll be imposing my high expectations on you will be a given if we're to be partners. This includes expectations of posting time: I prefer few plots with regular posts to a myriad of plots with a stacked posting regime, so I will be expecting posts at least every half-week (daily is best, if possible). I won't mind if real life gets in the way of posts, but please notify me about it. I kind of don't want to be made to feel like an 'optional' commitment to take care of, and I'm sure you don't want to be, either.
- That said, if a plot starts to drag, please summon up the courage to tell me you think it's horrible! I would much prefer you told me and we make changes/start over (you can change characters if you want!!) than you get bogged down in a plot you don't like.
