Digi's One on One Search {Long-Term} {Including Fandoms, Anthro and more~} {Preferably Casual/Arena}

Greetings all~ =} The name is Digi and I'm rather new here...and I haven't had a good RP in quite some time. So, I figured I would at least start with a few smaller RP's before going into a bigger one. In any case, here is what I am looking for.

Something you should know right out the gate is that I'm a very action-oriented RP partner, primarily via combat. I prefer my roleplays to be action/adventure focused over romance or any other aspect (they will likely still be present of course...just not quite as up front). If there's not really enough action elements to it, I'm likely to get bored and the RP will eventually whittle away. I really don't like having to abandon roleplays, so I would like to make that request right away.

Something else you should know for Fandom roleplays: I almost always prefer to avoid use of canon characters. I would very much like it if we could stick to original characters.

Now without further ado, I figure that I'll start with the Genres first. After all, I'm lenient with my rules, so the topic is perhaps most important. It's the only thing that can't really be worked out if we don't share an interest after all. Better get it out of the way first~ xP

Genres

Cravings
Anthro - Many possibilities reside here, including:

Furry - Naturally, nothing obscene. Just good-natured RP between animal characters.

Dragon - Limited primarily to anthro dragons, but can incorporate other mythical creatures as well. Inclusion of magic is possible

Fantasy Furry - A Mix off Furry and Dragon. More or less anything goes, so long as it's animalistic in nature/appearance. Magic and such is also possible here.

Neopets - One thing I will never shake from my days on Neo is my adoration for the creature designs.

Other ideas - Any other anthro ideas you might have that I might potentially be interested in. feel free to toss them my way~

Digimon - It seems like such a rare genre where I come from...and I have only had one good one in years. I am up for any of the following:

Tamers - This involves a classic Digimon take: Digimon Tamers and their single Digimon partner. They can be in the real world or they can go on an adventure in a Digital World. Preferably uses our own unique plot.

Frontier - This is based on Digimon Frontier, aka Season Four. Human characters are paired up with the Digimon Warrior Spirits and can merge together with them

Savers - Based on Digimon Savers, aka Season Five. Classic human/digimon pairings, but the Digimon police force DATS exists that police Digimon that cause trouble for the real world.

Pokémon - Simply put, I have not ever actually had a good Pokémon RP for ages now. I would like one~ Please note, knowledge (or willingness to attain the knowledge as necessary) of up to Generation VI is a must. I will very likely include Sinnoh, Unova and Kalos Pokémon, moves and abilities.

Classic - A classic human Trainer with a Pokémon team roleplay. This is a hugely general topic, so we can do a lot here. Though we will need a good plot going

Mystery Dungeon - If you played the Mystery Dungeon series, you know what you can expect here. Humans-turned-Pokémon are not necessary. I have an original setting for this if you are interested.

Conquest - If you played Pokémon Conquest, then you know what this will be about. It would preferably take plays generations after the events of the game.

PokéPark - I always loved what these games tried to do. Perhaps we could provide the more fluid battle system and the story that these games really needed~

Type: Wild - Ever play the fan-made fighting game Type Wild? Pretty much an original story behind that game

Dimension Number Two - A plot originally created by a friend of mine. Humans are abducted from their home dimension into a new, Pokémon-only one where they are transformed into Pokémon by a seemingly all-powerful, all-knowing being that rules over this second dimension known solely as "The Creator" (although they are offered the chance to come willingly). What happens to these humans after they become residents is completely up to them - adapt to the new lifestyle, try to seek an escape, etc. Neither of our main characters will necessarily need to play a human if you do not want to, but it is preferred that one be involved for plot progression.

Super Smash Brothers - After so much SSB4 hype, I can no longer contain myself. October is simply too long of a wait. Any Nintendo character is welcome; you're not restricted solely to characters that appear in the Smash games if you would like a new character. Although I would prefer to avoid getting involved with franchises that aren't really commonly associated with Nintendo these days (I'm looking right at you, Metal Gear).

That's it for my current cravings for now. Here's a list of other things I will do~

Fandoms
Video Games:
Fire Emblem - Either using an original storyline with original characters or one loosely based on Awakening in the same land, but generations down the line.
Zelda - Willing to do anything based on A Link Between Worlds, Skyward Sword, Ocarina of Time or Twilight Princess...perhaps we could even do our own Hyrule Warriors story.
Marioverse - Anything taking place in Mario's universe. I have never done one myself and I always loved the creative, colorful cast of character species to pick from.
Metroid - For this one, if you would like to play Samus...I won't get in your way. I would prefer a new story, whether Samus is included or not, on a new planet/abandoned thing

Anime/Manga:
Yu-Gi-Oh! - Card Games will be necessary. That's what Yugioh is these days, so I would prefer if we stick to that. If need-be, we can use duel simulators such as Devpro or Dueling Network rather than dueling in the RP itself. Classic up through Zexal is supported. I don't know enough about Arc-V or Pendulums to play them yet, though.
Naruto - Something taking place after the Akatsuki/Madara arc of Shippuden would be preferred...preferably generations later in an era of peace. Chunin Exams would be a fantastic setting. Spoilers can be avoided easily enough.
Yu Yu Hakusho - More or less speaks for itself. Haven't done one before, though, so you'll have to bear with me.
Dragon Drive - With a new plot, the idea behind Dragon Drive can get a lot more entertaining.
Dragonball Z - I would prefer Android-Cell Saga level characters...but perhaps we could start with Freeza/Saiyan Saga levels of abilities first. xD Never done this before either~
Bakugan - I've only seen/played games up to Mechtanium Surge and Defenders of the Core respectively. Any of those seasons are open game for me~

Others:
The Age of Fire - The Dragon Champion series. Something that takes place in this universe could be quite fun.
Inheritance Cycle - Eragon was always one of my favorite fantasy novel series. Something in this universe could be a lot of fun as well
Lion King - An original story that might not even have anything to actually do with Pride Rock
Godzilla - I had this crazy idea once where the movie monsters lived on a large island and could communicate quite normally with one another...even divided into their usual factions: Alien, Mutant, Global Defense Force (human race faction) and Earth Defenders (Godzilla, Anguirus, etc). I've always been curious what this would be like when put forth into motion.

---

Others
Dragons - Just...a general Dragon RP. I typically prefer to do an Elemental Dragon variety, but standard dragons are fine as well. Can have other races in it as necessary. Riders are also possible.
Medieval Fantasy - A general fantasy RP with an original plotline that we would have to come up with together.
Arena-style - following some kind of plotline, original characters are forced into fighting in an arena against one another for plot-based reasons.
Suggestions - I know for a fact that I am missing some topics that simply haven't come to mind. If you want to try something that's not on this list, feel free to ask below. The worst I can do is say "no"~ xD However, I will NOT do the following under any circumstances at the moment:

Gifted

Realistic (Teen, High School, etc)

Historical

Harry Potter (I love it, I just don't find it a fun RP genre)

Lord of the Rings/Hobbit (I just don't know enough about it)

Twilight or any form of Vampire and/or Werewolf

And now that that is out of the way, here are my rules and just what kind of partner I am searching for...and info about myself:

I don't care about your literacy level...as long as you can give me something I can reply to, make a worthy attempt at proper spelling and punctuation, and it is actually legible and makes sense. I suppose one might call this Semi-Lit+, but I don't really like using such vague terms.

I am male and I prefer to use male characters...but I can be convinced to use female characters if I must. I care not for what kinds of characters you would prefer to use.

I would greatly prefer somebody patient. I have a lot going on in my life and other RP's to tend to. I would like somebody patient enough to go at least a couple of days without a reply now and again.

Romance is not to be forced upon our characters. That's not to say there can't be a romance...but a forced, unnecessary romance can simply ruin a roleplay in my opinion. If the characters naturally grow close, then that is perfectly fine.

While on the subject of romance, I would prefer hetero relationships...but I have no problems with MxM. But I do get rather uncomfortable when it comes to FxF so you won't be getting that. Sorry.

As stated before, I would REALLY prefer sticking with original characters for fandoms. Please have as little connection to canon characters as possible for the most part.

I am far more lenient on my rules for my cravings than I am for anything else. The others I'm still flexible on, though.

I have no real limits in terms of violence. I like a mature level of violence myself...even on something like Pokémon and Digimon. Romance, however, I would definitely like to keep under control. xD

I believe that should be everything. If you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free to leave them below. If you would like to RP with me on any of the above topics, then please send me a PM and wait for a reply first. That way, the board is nice and orderly and I can address any questions as needed.

{Also, I apologize in advance for making you read such a long post~ xD}

A wild Rhymer appears...

Hey there~ I'm new myself and I spent some amount of time browsing around. From what I can gather, it's all up to your preference.

If you would like to set up a roleplay of some kind with a group, or perhaps join one already in progress, then go to the board that best suits your fancy out of the majority of the boards. If you would like to join an open/public roleplay, then you would simply have to ask in a thread's OOC tab if you can jump in and figure out where to go from there with the group. Otherwise, you can post your roleplay idea into the "Interest Checks" sub-board of the board of your choice and see if people are interested in RPing with you.

If you would prefer to keep things simple and do a one on one roleplay with just one other person, then there is the one on one board for you. That is where I personally will probably prefer keeping to my RP's, as I'm not one to really enjoy a larger group project. The same principle applies there: go to the Interest Checks section and leaf through what other people are requesting for...or you can create a request thread yourself and see if you can get any bites. I plan on going there rather soon and putting one up myself.

All in all, there's pretty much a little bit of everything for everybody here that is interested in forum-based roleplaying. It's all about your personal preference, so nobody can really point you to where you want to go but you. xD But my advice...if you're new to forum roleplaying, I would start with a small, casual, laid-back One on One RP with somebody who shares your RP interests. It can get a little hectic if you have a lot of people RPing in the same thread. xD Then you can come up with a plot together or you can simply wing it...or do whatever you want, really...as long as it's within the rules of course.

I'm quite looking forward to this place. I haven't had a good roleplay source since my Neopets days...and it'll be good not to have the harsh filters that Neopets has. xD
