Looking for Recommendations for Other RP Sites

Thanks for the advice, everyone! Somehow I wasn't subscribed to this topic, so I thought no one was answering until I checked just now. Anyway @Odin, you're right, that's not what I'm going for at all. ^_^; @PaulHaynek and @Ammokkx, I might just go check out Iwaku then, but somehow I'm not expecting much? lol

Thanks again!

Looking for Recommendations for Other RP Sites

Does anyone have any recommendations for other RP sites where I'm likely to find 1x1 roleplayers? I'm looking for sites like this, where you can look for roleplayers of any genre or fandom. I haven't been roleplaying consistently for years, and prior to this I've only used GaiaOnline (which I abandoned ages ago), RPNation, and here, the Roleplayer Guild. I just don't know how to find new sites (if there are any good ones) apart from Googling it (which is how I found RPNation and this site). Any suggestions are appreciated! Thanks

Edit: I'm note abandoning the Roleplayer's Guild, btw, just widening my search radius. :)

[CLosed] Looking for a Quick-Start RP

Well this is going about as well as I feared...

I suppose I'll do a proper RP search later on when I have more time and I'm feeling more committed to something long-term.

[CLosed] Looking for a Quick-Start RP

Hiya! I'm gonna be blunt: I am bored. I have a small window of free time at the moment. There's a videogame I really wanna play, but I can't play it right now. Almost everything else I could do either sounds unappealing right now or would be hampered by the rain outside. But I haven't roleplayed in a while (outside my once-a-month D&D group) and that sounds pretty interesting.

Problem is, I only have a couple hours at best tonight. I usually can't even find a new RP partner in a couple hours, much less world/character build properly before getting started. So this is going to be different from my usual fare. Straightforward. Probably very short-term. I'm talking cookie-cutter stuff here. Probably (but not definitely) going to be realistic modern, as that way we don't have to decide anything like how magic will work in this universe, or if vampires can tolerate sunlight. We can just jump right in. I don't have any ideas that I'm sold on right now, though. Maybe a university setting, boy-meets-girl shindig? Dunno.

Anyway, if you're still here and still interested, let me know! I can do forums, PMs, or Discord. Thanks for reading!

Sorry Virani, I've already heard from a couple of people and I don't want to start too many RPs at once. I'll definitely let you know if that changes anytime soon, though! Thanks for your interest! :)

Bump! Open for business again ;)

Give Me Your Favorite Lyric(s).

You feel like a candle
in a hurricane
Just like a picture
with a broken frame
Alone and helpless,
like you've lost your fight
But you'll be all right,
you'll be all right

...

Life's like a novel
with the end ripped out
The edge of a canyon
with only one way down
Take what you're given
before it's gone
And start holdin' on,
keep holdin' on

She remembers when
she first got her wings
And how she opened up
that day she learned to sing
Then the colors came
erased the black and white
And her whole world changed
when she realized

She's a butterfly, pretty as the crimson sky
Nothing's ever gonna bring her down
And everywhere she goes
Everybody knows
She's so glad to be alive
She's a butterfly

Like the purest light
in a darkened world
So much hope inside
such a lovely girl
You should see her fly
it's almost magical
It makes you want to cry
she's so beautiful

God bless the butterfly
Give her the strength to fly
Never let her wings touch the ground

When the Dragon War Came

Elyde caught a flicker of too-fast movement from the corner of her eye—a projectile?—and was out of her seat and taking a ready stance within a breath of time. Fortunately, this meant that the thin spray of ale from the flying tankard missed her; it instead sprayed foamy droplets across her recently vacated seat. Less fortunately, her supper companion was not as fast as she. He had barely closed his eyes and lifted his arms when the tankard crashed into their table. Though the tankard no longer flew, its contents continued the forward momentum in a small wave that soaked the poor man's face, chest, and lap. He belatedly shouted his surprise.

The crash and subsequent cry of alarm had everyone nearby going quiet and looking to see what had happened. A few people laughed, and even Elyde, annoyed though she was at the interruption, had to hide a small smile behind her hand. The man looked like a drenched cat, and as the shock wore off he began to look about as happy as one, too. His eyes locked onto the source of the spill and narrowed.

The boy—no, a young man—was busily righting his chair, having apparently fallen from it, but looked up and saw the damage his mishap had caused. Apparently, all he could manage in response was a weak, "Sorry?"

More chuckles came from those listening nearby, but the sodden Hunter's lips tightened into an angry line. Before he could let his temper speak for him, Elyde wordlessly fished her handkerchief from a pocket and held it out, one eyebrow raised. The man accepted it with a sigh and wiped his face and hands clean. A barmaid hurried forth with more cloths to clean up the mess.

Satisfied that she'd prevented a potential brawl, Elyde turned on the young man. She rested her hands on her hips and allowed a stern expression to cross her features. "Now, then." She spoke firmly, but without heat. "Have you any experience laundering clothes, or else coin to pay a laundress to get these stains out? Rolf here is leaving town in the morning, and neither of us have the time or inclination to clean up your mess." It was a fair and efficient solution, as she knew Rolf would let not this go with a mere word of apology. Indeed, she saw from her peripheral vision that Rolf nodded at her decision, the stiffness of his mouth and shoulders relaxing somewhat. Seeing that further entertainment was unlikely, the other patrons began returning to their own meals and conversation.

Only now did Elyde give the young man her full attention, and noticed with some surprise his pointed ears and angular features. The only indication of her surprise was a slow blink. A half-elf...interesting. Weren't elves supposed to be graceful?
