Avanhelsing — Roleplayer Guild

Hello and welcome to my post!
I promise the length of this post is worth it.

Over the last few days, I have been digging through my roleplaying game PDF collection and I missed playing them. So, I came up with the idea of using them to make some original plots with the books as inspiration. I do not want to play as a GM since I find that boring. The plots are left open-ended for the most part.

Before we get to my plot ideas, here is what you can expect from me as a partner:


I love any gender-based plots (except FxF because I am terrible at female characters). However, most of my guys are bisexual and I am flexible.
Smut is fine so long as it is not too nasty. I cannot deal with child abuse, incest, and bathroom anything.
I am not a grammar nazi. So don't be afraid and I prefer low to high casual length. Any longer than that and I tend to start rambling.
I cannot play female characters because I am terrible at it. I can, however, play a wide range of male characters.
Please be over 18 since some of my plots are mature in nature. I am 25.
I can post as often as is needed. I tend to post a lot.
I prefer PMs over threads.


I enjoy the following themes

History, Action, Adventure, Sci-Fi, Mecha, Romance, Superhero.

My plot ideas are based on different tabletop RPG settings and books. For reference, a few of them, are:

Call of Cthulu

The Roman Setting and the Classic 1920s setting are two of my favorites

Delta Green

I like to think of this one as its own setting.

Lancer

An excellent Mecha RPG that is more Titanfall and Firefly than Mobile Suit Gundam.

Masks

I love Superhero plots.

Now onto two plots:

The Forbidden City

(Influences: Call of Cthulu, Delta Green, Myst, Indiana Jones, SCP Wiki )

Legends speak of an ancient city in the middle of the desert. The city is so old that none can even remember the name. The stories tell of a powerful people who came from beyond and built the city as if by magic. The stories tell of great beasts created and commanded by the People and how they came to rule the local area. The stories all agree that something terrible happened there and suddenly the city was gone.

Many years later, satellite images returned the image of ruins in the desert that had not been there before. The three organizations: ORION (UK), M-EPIC (Canada), and the COMPANY (America), send agents to ruins to investigate. However, all contact has been lost with the team except for one message "We... hunger...". Now a new team of two (or more) agents is being sent to ruins to determine what has transpired.

(This plot is about heading to the city and determining what exactly happened in the City. Your character or characters can be whoever you want. )
Tales from the Universe

(Influences: Titanfall, The Expanse, Firefly, Battlemech)

The Union has fallen. After years of bitter wars with the Chainless Rebellion, the Union was finally defeated. Cradle, now renamed back to Tera, has been reclaimed for all of humanity. However, everything is not perfect. With the fall of the Union, regional warlords have appeared to claim parts of the galaxy for themselves. Noble houses, former Union military leaders, Corporations with their private militaries, and bandits are all fighting for dominion in this time of confusion. Using the powerful Frames (mecha), these people fight throughout the stars for dominion. All the while, the Distal Wars threaten to restart as ancient enemies eye the weakened state.

This means, that there is plenty of work for all sorts of mercenary types. Everyone needs people who can pilot, kill, and ask as few questions as possible. This is why it's odd when a strange collection of help wanted posters to start showing up around the stations. The Firebirds need You to help us win the day! Must have own Frame. Who are these people? Who are you?

Astounding Tales from Halcyon City! Craving


Halcyon City is a rather normal city. It has high towers and low slums. There is a subway and there  are commuters in them. Then there are the constant alien invasions, the attacks by mad scientists, and the heroes that fight these threats. Yes, Halcyon City is a bizarre city. It is one of the largest cities on Earth and has the largest population of Metahumans on Earth. No one quite knows what draws them there but there they are.  There are groups who wonder about the future of the city but they seem to stay quiet.


I do love heroic settings but I do not like set universes. I find I am terrible at playing Loki x OC and all that jazz. That is why I decided to make my own universe with its own rules and heroes.  It is based on multiple different sources but the main theme is comic books. I prefer the lighter kind of comics. There will be no organs being removed by a single punch (not as all the time). I can do a little darker but I get sick of stories that are not DARKER AND EDGIER for the sake of it. I hate grimdark for the sake of it. 

Themes: Action, Adventure, Romance, and other such comic book themes. 

Plot ideas: The main theme of this setting is that there 

Some Premade characters:  
All of these characters can fit just about anywhere. I can use them anywhere or I could use a few at the same time. 

He's a font of power.
Will it hard enough,
and he can remake
the world into exactly
what he wanted it to be.
It's wonderful, to have all
that power. And it’s terrifying.
Lose control for even a second,
and other people will get hurt.



Name Nathan O'Mally
Age 21-26

Powers: Magic: He was not born with this gift. One day, a book fell into his lap and he has used the book ever since. Someone wants to stop him from using the book and the mean business.  

Blood Magic: The Book is filled with different spells of less than pure methods. Sometimes to be the hero, you need to walk the fine line.

Plot ideas:

Someone wants Nate dead and it does not seem to be the average villain. They appear to be from the future and Nate needs all the help he can get. These guys are from the future and serve some guy named the Master. Nate seeks out anyone who can help him.
It's no fun to be a hero if no one cares who you are and Nate needs a mentor.


Wake up. Breakfast. School. Work at the coffee shop. Home to
make dinner for his brother. Homework. Sleep. Repeat. Day in,
day out.
It burns him up. You could get out there and make a real difference.
Help people. But instead, you're stuck, here in this life. Trapped in this cage.
That is…until you put on the mask. And then, he's free. Or at least,
so he pretends.


Name: Owen Mitchell 
Age 19-26

Powers: 
Archery: Owen was taught how to use a bow when he was six. His father thought it was a good skill to have. It also makes the whole hero thing so much easier.

Enhanced Combat: Owen does have one natural meta power. He can fight with natural ease. He can learn how to fight easily and he almost enjoys it. 

Plots:

Being a hero is really sweet. You get the save the city while also looking great doing it. Owen loves being a hero and someone does not think he should be a hero. Owen needs some help to learn how to be a real hero.
Owen has enough trouble keeping one side of life going. It is not easy to go between hero and keeping his siblings safe since his mother turned to drink. He would need a real friend to help him even if Owen needs to hide his nighttime activities. (Hero x friend)


Craving this one
Time travel is great! Or so he thought until he landed in a world that's nothing like what you'd
expected. A world full of strange things he
doesn't quite understand…and most of all, an
older, adult version of himself who's not at all
what he wanted to become. Someone who's
dark, broken, damaged, and dangerous.
Question is, what is he going to do about it?


Name: Johnathan Riddel
Age: Technically he is a young man around 18-26.    

Powers: Gifted Intelligence: Not just anyone can make their own time machine. Even in the future, John is one of the more intelligent people around. He never thought of using his powers for anything heroic but he's desperate. His powers allow him to turn junk into useful tools if he can find the time or the patience.

Plots:

It is not easy being a fish out of water. None of these people make any sense and they all seem to be so below him. Whatever he does, John just cannot fit into this strange new world. Perhaps someone can help him?
There still is the issue of the future him. Whatever John saw in his future scared him enough to go running back in time to stop it. All he knows is that he has to save someone special to him. The loss of this person caused him to turn dark and that scares him. Who is this person?


Craving using this one.
They would be nothing without each other- literally.
They’re two people whose powers combine into
more than the sum of their parts. Except for the rest
of the world only ever sees the pair as halves of a
whole not — as two separate people. And the two
aren't sure if they're right.

Names: Nick and Alex Gemello
Age: 21-27  Nick is ten minutes older than Alex.





Powers: The Twins have two different powers. That is the only easy way to tell the two apart. They do not know how they got their powers but it might have something to do with their father's genetics career. 

Nick's Power: Force Field Control Nick's powers are a little more abstract. Nick can create force fields that he can use to fight. He is not as fast as his brother but he can use the fields to make himself stronger. He still does not know how most of his powers but he is learning as he goes along. Nick tries to keep his brother safe from himself but that seems difficult. 

Alex's Power: Portal Creation: Alex can create portals between two places. Depending on how far the portals are leads to how much energy it drains from him. He can use the portals to move quickly around the city usually taking his brother on whatever hair brained scheme.


Who is who? The Twins have been facing this issue long before they got their powers. No one could ever tell them apart and that bothers them. All they want is for someone to understand them. (A romantic theme)
The Twins are starting their careers as heroes and no one ever seems to know what to do with them. The pair do not fit the normal heroes of the City. How can they separate themselves from the rest?


Plot ideas:
Hero x Friend
Hero's child x Villian's child
Hero x Hero
Any kind of plot. I just love this setting.
Thanks for reading! Hit me up with interest or a similar plot idea!
