Bio

Hello! :)


I'm Aleksandra, and I'm a third-year university student. I've been roleplaying on and off for the past six years. I enjoy anything fantasy, mystery and slice-of-life. I tend to stick to group roleplays unless I know a person well (some bad experiences soured 1x1 for me). Happy to do romance, so long as the other user is 18+. As for gore, I'm fine with it.

I might be busy due to writing and programming my dissertation project, but I will try to be active in the evenings and weekends. I'm trying to get back into roleplaying after a three-year absence, and as such, I'm trying to stick to one or two RPs at a time so as to not overwhelm myself again.

English is not my first language, but I have lived in England for eleven years and seem to get by fine, so take that as you will




My character sheets, roleplay plots and unfinished ideas: Warning, most of this is admittedly cringe. Working on fixing that

Current RPs:
-> None at the moment

Current Interest Checks:
-> Pirates of Lreya

The docks of a small trading kingdom in Spain



Anya Merca




The Basics

Name:Anya Merca
Age:19
Species:Water Nymph
Gender:Female
Role:The Navigator



Appearance


On land, Anya has straight navy blue hair, which she usually keeps in a ponytail and freakishly pale skin. Her eyes are grey like iron and they seem to shine in the sunlight. Her fingers are a tad sharper than a human's while also being tainted blue at the tips. She is quite slim and a bit muscular due to engaging in many fights that occurred on the deck.

When she is in the water her hair becomes more curled and her skin becomes scaly and blue. Her irises retain their grey colour but the rest of her eyes became yellow and allow her to see in the darker areas of the sea. Her fingers turn into claws and her feet turn into fins.



What's Inside


Sexuality:Pansexual
Personality:
Anya is often seen with her nose in a book, but she is certainly not introverted. She enjoys talking to her crew members and close friends. Her nature is quite deceptive and she tends to sometimes be manipulative. She lacks manners and is extremely direct, often resulting in her either offending someone or making an enemy.This also might make people avoid her due to them being disturbed by her bluntness. Anya also does not enjoy fighting as much as the other members, but she does not mind it- after all, she doesn't want to die. She is playful and very imaginative, often mistaking reality with fantasy. Sometimes, she tries to imagine what her life was before the attack. She mistrusts the king and his people, therefore she will avoid socialising with them.

She often also doubts that people like her and wonders if she really deserves to be a part of this crew, but she never reveals this insecurity for she fears to be a burden because of it.

Habits:
  • Scratching her fingers when nervous.
  • Skipping whenever she's happy
  • Dissolving into the water when scared.


Fears:
Anya is scared of getting amnesia as she treasures every single memory she has because she realises she has lost her life during the unexpected attack on the village. She's also terrified of darkness and what it symbolizes. It makes her feel alone and as if she lost something important. Anya also is scared of being a burden to her crew.

Likes:
  • Astrology- She is fascinated by the skill of reading someone's future using stars and constellations. Anya started studying it after she acquired a couple of books about this topic during one of the pirate raids.
  • Water- As she is a water nymph, Anya has a natural attraction to water. She could spend days underwater, but she also adores learning about the world above, so she only swims in the mornings and evenings.
  • Learning- Like I mentioned earlier, Anya is fascinated by the world around her. Throughout her life on the ship, she has stolen a lot of books which she studied from.
  • Clothing- If Anya was ever to leave the crew of Minevra Pythos behind, she would probably become a tailor. She enjoys wearing fancy dresses and expertly tailored suits and she has picked up a couple of sewing techniques when she had to sew back her clothing after a battle


Dislikes:
  • Blood- Even though she may be a pirate, Anya hates blood. She tends to feel sick if she notices and might overreact if she is bleeding.
  • Being kept away from water - Water nymphs become weaker if they are kept away from water and might even die if they aren't soaked in it for a while. It has other negative effects such as being moody or refusing to do anything unless they not offered any form of liquid

Marcus Simmons




The Basics

Name:Marcus Simmons
Age:22
Species:Elf
Gender:Male
Role:The Captain



Appearance


With such child-like face, it's hard to believe that Marcus is a captain of a pirate ship. His face is framed by long golden locks, which he usually keeps tied back with a purple ribbon. He has narrow light brown eyes and he possesses thick eyebrows. His mouth is most often curved into a frown. He covers his face when in public in order to hide his scars from civilians so they wouldn't be alarmed by pirates being nearby- it makes pickpocketing much easier.

On deck, Marcus often dresses in fancy robes and jewellery. No one ever sees him in normal clothing or with his hair down unless he leaves the ship- which is quite rare.



What's Inside


Sexuality:Heterosexual
Personality:
Marcus often takes things seriously. Anything that the crew wants to do must be first planned carefully and must be executed with absolute precision. He hates being around anything dirty and will often clean the deck himself so nothing is out of place. But despite his perfectionism, he can be ruthless and certainly he will not hesitate to punish any of his crew members for any offence he or she would commit.

However, that does not mean that he doesn't care about the crew. He always makes sure that there is enough food, medicine and alcohol on the deck.
Habits:
  • Rubbing his neck when bored
  • Walking around the deck when stressed
  • Drinking gin when tired


Fears:
Marcus is terrified of fire. He believes that it is a destructive force and therefore it shouldn't be used by any creature with common sense. He will avoid matches, torches and any other sources of fire.

Likes:
  • Cleaning
  • Fancy objects and articles of clothing
  • Crime


Dislikes:
  • Fire
  • The royalty
  • Betrayals and traitors

The water splashed against your feet as you raced towards the wooden beauty...



Pirates were considered to be the lowest of the low. They were often called the tyrants of the seven seas, the traitors of the crown and if they were ever captured, they would certainly get hanged. Your social class, species or gender didn't matter. You were a pirate- and that was all the authorities needed to know. Many pirates didn't manage to live a long life. But you were lucky, having survived more than 12 years on the deck since the incident'.

...away from the screams of the town, you have called home ever since you were born...



Many on the deck don't remember what had happened that night. Most of the crew members were younger than 10 when the attack occurred. They survived due to pure luck or their parents sacrifice to get them on the only ship in the docks. Not that it mattered- they died and their children were brought up to become criminals or to die in battle. Their heritage and past were quickly forgotten so they could become the mighty monarchs of the sea. And well, the village was forgotten after a couple of years.

... only to find safety in the most unlikely place imaginable.


By then, you became the infamous pirate crew "Minerva Pathos". You were cunning, sly, powerful and dangerous- the biggest threat any kingdom could imagine. Each crew member was unique, both biologically and psychologically, but you all had the same roots. You were a family and the ship was your home. No one else dared to enter your group of cut-throats. Therefore it was quite shocking when a King of a small kingdom requested your assistance in retrieving something from a lost village.

The mentioned town seemed eerily familiar.
