Bio
Hello all who have deigned to grace my profile with their presence! I am the great Arrayah, lord of the Phoenix. Or something. I don't know.
Anyways, bio. As of writing this, I am a 23 year old female. I am married. I own two dogs (a Dalmatian and a Labrador... so cliche). I work from home. I like crafty stuff and games. I used to be an MMORPG girl, but have since moved on to things like Minecraft and Ark as well as Rimworld and Dwarf Fortress. Who knows what's next?
I love writing, but only get to roleplaying a few times every couple years. Unfortunately, life gets in the way. I'm starting to have more time lately, and thought it'd be fine to start it up again. We'll see how it goes, but hopefully I stick around this time.
I was on the old RPGuild, so you may recognize my name. If so, hello again! If not, maybe we'll have lots of fun together. If I've been online recently, and you're interested in doing an RP, feel free to PM me. I'm almost always interested in 1x1s as long as I don't have too many going on. Check some of my old threads to see my rules, or pm me if that's too much hassle.
Long live the Phoenix Queen. Or something or other.

We have one more person who needs to intro right? Is she still around?
He wasn't being rude, he was asking a question. The summary does gibe a very brief, but accurate overview.
Most of what happened is just characters talking.

Bumping this before sleepy time.
Long ago, three kingdoms were founded: Astora, Berinike, and Callum. The tales of how they came to be have been lost to time, but in that time they have grown to represent very different ideals.
Astora is built on peace and love for all its people. Elves, humans, dwarves, and goblins alike are treated as equals. Everyone is important in they eyes of those who rule. The best doctors and caretakers come from this country. Many of this country are slight in build with fare skin, and light hair. This is not surprising considering the entire country is comprised of forests, with the towns being the only places trees have not taken over. Their banner is a white cross on a blue background.
Berinike is built on military and combat. Many of their workers are blacksmiths or soldiers, and they look at everything with military position. If someone is not useful, there is no reason to treat them as though they are. Racism is not common, but nor are the humans kind to any other. The people of this country are tall, and strong. They tend to be dark skinned form all their work outside. The kingdom itself is located in a mountainous terrain. This is useful for the blacksmiths located in the country. Their banner is a black dragon on a yellow background.
Callum is built on pain and deceit. Slavery is still a part of their every day culture, and the people are encouraged to treat those who are not worthy like vermin. It is believed that this kingdom was the one who started the Great War. This country takes all, and so their appearance is hard to categorize. People born here are even fairer in skin than the Astoran's because of the volcanic ash that covers the sky most of the year. Their banner is a black skull on a red background.
The Great War has been going on for as long as anyone can remember and no one can say how it was started. Sometimes only Callum is fighting, while Astora and Berinike defend their lands. Sometimes Astora and Berinike decide that they would be better without the other and start to fight along the mountains that divide them. But mostly, it is the three kingdoms all fighting each other at once. This has led to death and destruction everywhere the battles reach.
The royals of Astora are tired of seeing their people killed and raided, and so much worse. They long for peace, and intend to get it. The King and Queen have made a deal with the rulers of Berinike: an arranged marriage. Astora's only princess will be married to one of the princes of Berinike. The hope is that this will cause a bond between the two kingdoms that cannot be broken. When the fighting finally stops, they will be able to focus all their efforts on defending the land from Callum.
Okay, so that was probably long. Here's what I'm thinking. I will be playing the princess. I'm not going to put a CS here (That's what OOC is for), but she is going to be a troublemaker who longs for freedom more than anything else. Despite this, she has agreed to the marriage because, like her parents, she very much cares for her people and only wants them to be safe.
There are two (NOW THREE WOOOO :D) ways this RP could go.
One: You could play the prince. This one is obvious. The two have probably never met before except maybe as young children when the fighting was paused (as it does sometimes). The RP will follow them as they slowly begin to know each other and possibly fall in love. More likely, the princess will kick him in the face and leave, but hey, anything could happen. In this RP Callum will be trying to break the alliance in anyway possible, their first objective being to assassinate the princess.
Two: You could play the Knight who escorts the princess to the prince. In this case, it would be an adventure full of action (well I'll try anyways, I may need help. It's hard for me to think of plots like this). Perhaps romance too, like the previous, but not necessarily. In this case, the Knight will know of the princess, and maybe talked to her a few times, but they will not start out close. As in the first option, Callum will be trying to assassinate the princess before she can reach Berinike.
Three: A combination of both. In this you would still be playing the Knight (of Berinike), however, the journey would not be part of the RP. The plot for this will be the same as the first, just your character will be different. Like the first, I expect romance (between princess and Knight) to play a part as well as action.
I'm willing to take one of each. You can send me any questions or concerns, and a description of what your character would be like. Doesn't have to be long, just something that gives me some idea of how the RP will play out. Hopefully people take interest!
Okay. Now the boring part. I don't have many, but here they are.
Rules:
1. I DO NOT DO SMUT. I feel this is necessary because I'm hoping there will be romance in these RPs. Now, I'm not saying that I'm not willing to do any X Rated RP. It's just meaningless smut that I stay away from. That being said, unless it REALLY, and I mean REALLY contributes to the plot, I won't be doing it. AGAIN, if I feel it is important to plot, I'm willing to do it. Otherwise, we're fading to black - that is if we are even ever in that situation.
2. Anything else X Rated is just fine with me. Gore, cursing, and the like. No probs. The second option will probably involve a lot of that, as we'll be traveling through a warzone. The first could possibly too because as the conflict between the main characters resolves, Callum will become more and more of a problem. So yeah. That's fine. I feel I need to add here that I'm 21 years old. I know it shouldn't be important, but I'm just not willing to roleplay with anyone who isn't 18+ or very close to it. No 14 year olds. For various reasons.
3. I don't expect a minimum or maximum (who would put a maximum?) post size, but please don't give me one-liners. I give as much as I get, so I'm sure you'll have plenty to respond to. I'm very into introspective characters, so I always have pretty sizeable posts when I can. I also try to give my partners something they can reply to in kind. If anything, you can at least say what you're character is doing and thinking while they speak. This should give you a paragraph. A short one maybe, but its better than a sentence.
4. Sometimes I get busy. Be patient with me. I'm in college still, and I run my own (small) online business. I get distracted by games and life. So if it takes me a couple days to post, I'm sorry. It shouldn't happen often. And when it does happen, I'm back to my usual posting schedule soon after. This is at least once a day, more if you reply faster. But! On the plus side, this means that I'm very laid back about how often you post. I know that people have lives, so if it takes longer than you'd like, I'll understand. At least send me a PM to let me know, though.
5. Please. PLEASE. For the love of god. Grammar. I don't expect you to be the king of it, but just have some. I don't want to see: 'And he roded into the sunset and never looked back again because all this other stuff that makes a run on sentence that makes no sense with the words forever and forgotten repeated 6 times.' I know that a lot of people don't have English as a first language. If that's the case, tell me because I'll be a lot more forgiving. If it isn't, and you still can't write correctly, we were not meant to be.
6. I don't want some plain character with a boring personality. They're always happy, yay! Not for me. I need angst and conflict. Our characters should NOT get along (in the first option especially). And if they do, they shouldn't just be happy. There should be some fun and witty banter, and possibly fights over values. They will not be stupid and dimwitted and any other synonym. Also, my character will NOT be submissive. She will be entirely aware of the role the world wants to put on her, and she might play it for the sake of her country, but she will NEVER actually be that way. In fact, she probably won't even pretend. She's a princess, and besides, she has too much pride for that.
Okay. Well. I know that was a lot to read, but hopefully you did. I think those are my only rules, but I can't remember. I look forward to RPing with you!

Yay! Another character! You're accepted :) I'll be making a Beta, because we're missing one, and it will help in case the Alpha isn't sure what to do :p
Edit: Beta is up, and as said IC will be up soon or more likely tomorrow.

P-p-p-posted. I expect that I shall have much fun with this character.
A young, crimson haired woman crashed the party -literally crashed as she ran into a table she was moving so fast- soon after. "Ah! Have you seen the weather? It seems that our presence is damning the entire..." she was going to say town, but after a look out the window it just didn't fit. So, instead, she just continued her lament. "I do so hate getting wet. Although," here a devilish smile formed on her lips, "Perhaps I look better that way. Just think! Soaked to the bone, shivering and in need of a warm body to hold onto. The water would cause the clothes to just cling to my very form!" A laugh. "Ooh, I'm going to have to try that trick next time."
It's worth mentioning that since she has risen, Lynarra has not slept with a single person. In their sleep. Without them knowing. Okay, so maybe she's not as good as she wanted to be, but she really is trying. Besides, she's a succubus, she can't just abstain. It would probably kill her. So, now, she actually picks up guys in bars to get what she needs. It's ridiculous, just how much work it is, but somehow it is also refreshing. Men now choose her. Sure, it isn't her real body, but hey, it means she knows what men want all the same.
The woman plopped into a chair and placed her head on the table. "I don't know why I show up to these things. They're so boring." In her human form, she could not even fly around for fun. That wasn't a good idea anyways, part of the reason she'd chosen this look for tonight. "I mean gosh. I can't hook up with any of you! You're all so..." Here she grimaced before a pout took its place. "It's so unfair. Why does He have to be so... lame? Not to mention..." she paused gazing at the two in the room with a confused look in her gray eyes. "wouldn't we be Heaven's Demons?"

Cool. I'll have my new character done soon, and the IC up in the next few hours or sometime tomorrow. Depends on whether I get tired or not.
If anyone else wants to make a second character (since we don't have very many) feel free to do so.

WOOPS. Ignore that for now until I fix it!
Edit: It is fixed. Hopefully they are okay. If you want me to change or edit anything, let me know
