Red in Tooth and Claw [EXTINCT RP]

"I'm civil and hope that you are of the same mind. ."

That was all the young woman needed to hear before a smirk burst across her face. What a foolish claim. Any idiot would be suspicious of those words and that was doubly true in times like these. It was no wonder that she was among the last remnants of humanity when others were so easily persuaded. She wasn't like that, however. Only the blind allowed themselves to be led by the blind and so she kept to herself for the most part. And for now, all she could do was remained poised behind a nearby dumpster with her rifle in hand and a crouch that left her closer to the ground. Any ordinary survivor would be vulnerable to a surprise attack right now, but the woman hadn't considered herself to fall into that category. She did not fall to the same traps that idiots did anyway.

The scope on her rifle was pulled closer to one of her eyes and she took a quick glance through it. It was difficult to make out definitive features on the other survivor in this rain, but she could tell that he was male and a bit on the older side. Probably easy enough to take down in a firefight or with wits if it came down to it. She had no interest in wasting her ammunition or time, however. Not on a human anyway. Her traps were entirely meant for cowardly raptors and hardly ever used against fellow survivors. She had other games to play with them instead. This thought crossed her mind as she slowly lowered her weapon towards the ground. For now, there wasn't much to do aside from seeing how the confrontation between these two survivors played out. A rare form of entertainment in these ghastly times at least.

There was a part of her that glanced towards the distance, towards a rooftop, with the belief that someone may have been watching them. Perhaps someone was and perhaps someone wasn't. She, however, could find no proof that there was someone there after all. There was no body there or at least from the angle that she was crouched at anyway. Even still, she couldn't shake the feeling that someone was there. . And the thought of a raptor hiding there amused her even further.

Hello

Hey there, welcome to the community! What are you looking to write while on here?

Good Evening

@Hyde Thank ya! :) I'm mainly drawn to modern or modern-fantasy settings, and I love a good mystery (whether I'm running one or playing to solve one), though I do dabble in other genres and settings, I usually always come back to those!

@Kal

You'll definitely find a Roleplay that suits your tastes and most likely in Casual or Advanced based on what you described. It looks like you've already begun to launch your own plot too, so best of luck with that!

Back from the dead

Welcome back. I hope that you're able to find a Roleplay that suits your taste.

Post a random fact about yourself.

I've seen about a dozen live concerts in my lifetime.

How do YOU do 1x1s?

I've mostly had 1x1s on Discord with my close friend (now ex-girlfriend) for about a year and a half now. I usually lead the plot with the most amount of characters and NPCs though it's always clear that she could take it in any direction that she'd liked. We've have had several 1x1s going at once in the past with similarities between each. Usually, it's characters or setting interwoven into our multiverse. We currently have one ongoing plot, Starfall, though it's on hold at the moment for a few reasons. And most of the reasons are me, admittedly.

Generally speaking, we usually discuss our concepts beforehand and plan out characters, even ones that'll appear later, from the start. We do alright though usually stray after a few months into the project and get bored only to abandon it. My best friend from high school and I also have a 1x1 that we've been doing since 2017. This has been mostly been "on the spot" plotting and it mostly focuses on character development or world lore. We've had retcon things here and there, but we aren't writing professionally, so I don't worry about it too much. We started on the days of Skype and have since switched over to Discord. We also met in our math class which is always funny to me!

As for on the Guild. . Eh? I've been invited to a few 1x1s here and there, but my partner(s) have been dipping or there's been a radio silence between us. I had one Roleplay that I was in the process of writing eleven characters for, but then my partner left all of our DMs and hasn't responded to my Discord message. I've been working on a 1x1 interest check too, but uh. . It's very slow going.

I excessively chew gum when I'm stressed out.

One good thing about today.

I'm having ice cream as my first meal of the day.

This is kinda old

Welcome back to the Guild. What era of history are you most interested in?
