'Ello! I'm new around these parts, but not to RPing. I'm seeking a few fabulous, imaginative writers to help me create long lasting, original RPs.

About Me:

23 year old female, here. I work full time and have something of a social life, but I can usually reply every day. I prefer writing with RPers 18+; no offense to the youngsters, but jailbait squicks me out. Although I have ladyparts, I enjoy writing males and females equally, with a tendency to play menfolk more often. If you're the sort who believes women writers can't realistically portray men, I'd be happy to prove you wrong. I am slash, femslash and het friendly; my characters are original, and rarely have an established orientation. RPs completely centered around romance bore the snot out of me, however. I prefer flawed romance that takes time to develop, instead of two characters falling in 'twu wuv' right away. I am most comfortable writing around an 'M' rating with freedom to cuss, spew violence and explore darker themes. I am perfectly fine writing smut if the scene calls for it, but gratuitous sexing gets dull. Just let me know what your limits, if any, are in the beginning: I can describe nekkid naughtiness with the best of them, or simply fade to black. I'm here to write, not (just) get my rocks off. ;)

I am a believer in quality over quantity. I'd much prefer a shorter response that keeps the RP moving and enough action/dialogue to respond to than a rambling purple prose-ridden novel about what your character is wearing, or what she had for lunch. However, if I pour out an in depth 1,000 word intro and get three sentences in reply, I won't be a happy panda. All I ask is for my partner to show obvious effort and be as engaged in the roleplay as I am. No matter the length of my responses, whether they're two paragraphs or two pages, I put a lot of thought into what I write. I roleplay for fun, but I am also doing this to become a better writer.

I will only write over threads, PMs or emails. No messenger. All of my characters are originals, and I only feel comfortable writing in original settings. No offense to the fandom writers; I just can't bring myself to genuinely care about a world and characters that aren't unique, my own. Absolutely no slice-of-life, real world settings. I live that ish every day, and RP is my escape. Fantasy is my favorite genre; whether it's a magical urban fantasy hidden in plain sight in our world, a fantastical high fantasy a la Skyrim or LotR, steampunk gunslingers and alchemists dueling over magic vs. technology, etc. If you have a strictly sci-fi or horror idea, I'd be happy to hear and give it a try, but I am happiest toying with magic and fantasyland. It's the kid still fighting to play pretend in me. :P

I think I've perhaps rambled enough. I have a few vague premises/ideas, so PM me if you'd like to hear them, or share some of your own. Thanks for blustering through my ad; hopefully it wasn't as awkward as the ones on OkCupid. Happy RP hunting!

Hello there. You sound pretty interesting as a co-writer. I consider myself a casual writer. (I've been called advanced level by multiple partners, but my ATTITUDE toward rp is casual, so I call myself casual) I also like writing fantasy, but not "high fantasy" set in the medieval time period. Time periods I've been thinking really need a fantasy makeover would be either the American old west, or the prohibition era roaring 20's of mobsters. Though, a warning in advance, while I AM interested, you may not be, depending on how serious you schedule your games. I'm busy, and a post a day is generally beyond impossible. If that's something you can tolerate, then I'd love to get a PM with some of your ideas. :)
