Hello! I'm Jones! and if you stumbled upon my page, I must have struck your interest!
I like to think that I'm a storyteller. I joined this site to create characters, and worlds I can put myself in. Every post I make will be to the best of my ability, and I hope anyone who stumbles upon my name can see that :D
Just a few things about me if you couldn't tell already by just glancing at my profile haha:
-I LOVE anything Captain America or Marvel related
-I have been RP'ing for over ten years now so I got some experience
- I do my best to try and have a wide range of RP genres
-I'm mostly do 1X1's and Casual/advanced RP's
-I'm a 20 something year old male living in the Pacific North West in the good ole US of A!
- I love meeting new RP'ers and seeing what we can create together!
- I'm a sucker for romance <3
There are specific times of the year where I get bombarded with things so I might not be on for a couple days, and if that's the case I'm trying to let anyone know so they aren't left wondering.
But like I said I love it when people contact me and ask if I want to RP with them, or have an idea and want my skills, and odds are I love the same thing, so If anyone wants to collab just shoot me a PM!
Subjects I love to RP
-Anything Marvel Related, Especially Cap!
-The Percy Jackson Series
-The Witcher
-Avatar the Last Airbender
-Anything Sci-Fi
-Harry Potter
- 1X1 Romances
-Modern day life
-Star Wars
-Fairy Tail
Those are pretty much my go to's, but I'm willing to hear out any idea and think about it!
Here's an example of my writing to give you a sense of my "skill" I guess... I keep trying to get better and better so bear with me!
Benjamin West woke up to a loud alarm, and the sun shining through the window and into his eyes. groaned a little as he hit the snooze button, and fell back down onto his pillow. It was an almost perfect plan, until he heard running down the hall and a small voice. "Daddy! Dad wake up!" Ben's daughter Jamie knocked on his door, and continued down the hall to wake her brother up too.
Ben got out of the bed, running a hand through his messy brown hair before drawing the curtains to view the beautiful Virginia forest. He walked across to the room to a nightstand with a picture of a beautiful woman holding a small boy, with the brightest smile in the world. "Buongiorno mio amore" He muttered, touching the picture lightly before walking into the bathroom, getting ready for the day.
Minutes later he came down the stairs dressed in a dark blue sweater, some worn jeans and sneakers. He didn't have a traditional job in the morning, but he did have the all-time job of being a dad. He made his way into the kitchen, a traditional style that Maria helped remodel. Jamie was sitting at the island, finishing some of her homework. Ben rubbed his hand on her head, and walked to the kitchen. "What will it be, Little One? Pancakes? Cereal, eggs?" He asked, turning on the stove.
"Just cereal..." Jamie replied, hard at work. "Just cereal, you got it... Hey, is Marco up? Marco!" Ben yelled, walking to the pantry to receive some cereal. "Daddy, you're still going to help today, right?" Jamie asked. "Yeah, yeah... wait, help with what?" He asked, handing his daughter a bowl and pouring milk in.
"The school fair is today, and you promised to help, remember?" He had been going through so much recently with the legal papers and Marco acting up in school, that he had forgotten all about the fair! "Yeah, I remember sweetheart... I'll be there. Marco! Hurry up, don't make me come up there!"
A couple seconds later Ben's oldest, Marco walked down, not saying a word, only grabbing a bagel from the kitchen counter. "You get your work done, Big Guy? I'm not going to get a note to sign tonight for bad behavior?" Ben asked, looking over at him as he helped Jamie put things in her backpack. Marco shook his head. "Can we go now? We're going to be late."
"Well maybe if someone came down on time we shouldn't be. Come on sweetheart. Everyone in the car! You all got your lunches, right?"
----
The car rides to school were not the most heartfelt and happiest. It was debating on what to listen to on the radio, mixed with passive aggressive remarks from Marco, to Ben giving a speech on how he needs to help out and grow up. When they parked in front of the school, Marco immediately left without saying a word. "Yeah, Love you too!" Ben yelled after him, getting out of the car to help Jamie out. "Alright Little one, when does your fair start?"
"Five o'clock. But volunteers need to be there an hour early to set things up."
"Four o'clock. Got it. And... what did you sign me up to do, exactly?"
"I don't know, the school figures that out, I just put you on the list!"
"Alright, mio amore, I'll be there. Have a good day, I love you." He gave her a kiss on the forehead before letting her go off to her class. He stood next to his car, watching her meet up with her friends. She didn't seem as embarrassed of him as Marco was, it was probably because she was letting him cope with this all. She was a smart girl, too smart if you asked him.
He looked next to him to see a couple of parents (especially mothers) staring over at him. He was famous in a sense, he made a lot of interviews and did a lot of crazy things on his old show that many people would see him as a perfect human being... But he didn't feel that at all. He gave an awkward smile and wave to the crowd, getting into the car before any of them could dive into small talk. He didn't hate talking to people, it was just... difficult. Especially right now.
He would probably do what he did every day. He would call some buddies he had that were still talking about a new season for his show (and politely turn them down), clean the house, and then apparently help at this school fair. It was a change of pace from what he used to do, but this was still just as challenging.
If you have any questions about my RP's, or future ones just shoot me a PM!
All of these people are amazing writers and friends and if you happen to RP with them consider yourself lucky! XD
and for a final note: THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE A HOBBY, NOT A CHORE! I never want to put pressure on you, or myself and make any RP feel like you NEED to post, or have to force yourself to write. This is supposed to be fun, and I'll do anything to make sure it feels that way :)
Hello! Me again, and I as you all know I'm a huge marvel fan XD
I have always wanted to try and do a "apocalyptic world" where all of the Avengers and super heroes either went into hiding, or died, and then have a new wave of heroes rise and fight back. After watching Logan, I thought it'd be really fun to play with the idea of "anti-mutants/heroes" in the world that their parents or grandparents once protected.
The world's most powerful villains go against the world's most powerful heroes, but this time, the Avengers are defeated. Villains split up the world into regions, and rule how they see fit. Most of the heroes die trying to rebel against their foes, others go into hiding for years. Decades pass, and it's now law for any "superhuman" to be turned in, and executed. Special machines, and enhanced humans are created to hunt down and kill them.
Children of infamous heroes, or original mutants do their best to fit in, and lay low from the world they live in... Until they are given the chance to fight back.
Heroes from all over the world and regions secretly get recruited, and it's not long before these new heroes rise up and start to fight back. It gives the people hope, a chance to feel free again. They continue to rebel, and fight, and rescue and recruit new mutants and heroes that want to stand up for the underdogs.
Will you be one of them?
I know it's not the most original plot in the world, but I really want to try it out! It'd be a darker turn on this scenario, where heroes have to decide whether to lay low, or try to help people in need without getting caught. Nothing will be black and white, and the heroes can come from legendary heritage, or you can make your own mutant/hero!
Is anyone interested so far?? Any questions/comments/concerns can be told to me here, or shoot me a PM! :D
The races are pretty much the same as any other fantasy world. The major ones are Dwarves, Elves, Humans, and Halflings. Everything but the humans are kinda oppressed in the kingdoms. I will note though, that the only known witchers are humans because of their "adaptability," and Dwarves are not magic-savvy haha
But yeah, i recommend looking into the Witcher series, not for this RP but because its amazing XD
I think it would ruin the fun if I did everything to the tee! I'll give dexcriptions and info on certain things I feel are important, but really it's just a cool fantasy world with people for hire!
"Indeed, naught is more repulsive than these monsters that defy nature and are known by the name of witcher, as they are the offspring of foul sorcery and witchcraft. Unscrupulous scoundrels without conscience and virtue, they are veritable creatures from hell, capable only of taking lives..."
The Witcher series is one of my favorites. Of all time. I read the books (that are currently translated), I played the games, and thought the would would be a perfect place to be in!
For those that don't know,
The stories are set on the Continent, which was settled several thousand years earlier by elves from overseas. When they arrived, the elves encountered gnomes and dwarves. After a period of war between the elves and dwarves, the dwarves retreated into the mountains and the elves settled in the plains and forests. Human colonists arrived about five hundred years before the events in the stories, igniting a series of wars. The humans were victorious, and became dominant; the non-human races, now considered second-class citizens, often live in small ghettos within human settlements. Those not confined to the ghettos live in wilderness regions not yet claimed by humans. Other races on the Continent are halflings and dryads; werewolves and vampires appeared after a magical event, known as the Conjunction of the Spheres, where many other hideous and dangerous creatures emerged.
During the centuries preceding the stories, most of the Continent's southern regions have been taken over by the Nilfgaard Empire; the north belongs to the fragmented Northern Kingdoms. In order to destroy the dangerous and evil beasts of the land, sorceresses stole human children from their homes and were subject to intense alchemical proccesses, mutations, and incredible physical and magical training. They are transformed into extremely quick, and skilled, and powerful monster hunters known as Witchers.
There'll be detailed descriptions of different things later, but that's besides the point!
I was thinking about having the plot loooooong after the tales of Geralt of Rivia. Civilization has gotten into their equivalent of the Renaissance... The amount of monsters died down, endless amounts of war shaped and molded the land into what it is now. With the new day and age, Witchers and Sorcerers were not needed, and the kingdoms thought them more dangerous than the creatures they were meant to defeat. A purge started, hunting down and killing every known Witcher, and Sorceress.
Years after, only a handful of each survived. Witchers kept doing what they do best, and Sorcerers went into hiding. When a "Second collision" erupted out of nowhere, being led by a dark and evil force. The King of the New Age called upon one of the last Witchers to gather up his kind, train new ones, and gather the sorcerers in order to help defeat these new creatures of darkness. The witcher didn't have much choice, but he starts the long and dangerous journey to stop the forces of evil. ---
This is the plot, and I think it'd be super fun to play with! Now you wouldn't HAVE to play as Witchers and mages, you can be friends, bards, dwarves, elves, younger people training to be Witchers and Sorcerers/sorceresses, anyone who wants to accompany the Witcher in his struggle! Action, gore, romance, and a badass quest!
Is anyone interested so far?? If you have any questions, or comments, just mention me, or shoot me a PM!!
Alright kiddos, as we are going towards the mysterious signal, is there anything we want to play around with?
This may or may not (totally may) involve bringing the Dread back into the galaxy, and causing a more "serious" tone for the Committee, but maybe not so for some of the Marauders crew.
My next post will get us out of this awkward transition period, and more into the action! I just wanted to give people time to develop some character development and stuff... and also, we got the psychology session to look forward to XD
"It's the Monroe, Cap is fine, and --" Before he could finish his snarky comment to the younger crew mate, Kaite arrived, as if expecting it. He knew he would be a complication when he attached his eyepatch to the Monroe. He let the two talk, and then came another body, Shyr. The three of them were being polite, and talked with little problem. He knew that the newest recruits would try to assert themselves. But this was Raymond's ship. He would do his best to make that very, very clear if need be. One of his first recruits three years ago tried to take Raymond's quarters. The recruit was twice Ray's size, but after a fight and a lot of injuries, the new recruit was transferred for medical leave in critical condition.
Luckily he had no feeling of that hostility in them... But the way Jin talked and looked around made him uneasy. As if she was looking for the nearest exit... He wasn't going to judge the kid, and besides, Tango wouldn't let anyone get out of the ship that easily. The AI was still Galactic Committee property, and had very strict protocol when it came to many things.
"You'll get to see what the Monroe has to offer, but for now, we gotta get this done.
He lead the three to the meeting room, the large rectangular table meant to hold meetings of any kind. In the center of the table was a hologram projector, which came in handy to show maps and persons of interest. "This'll be quick I promise. Sit back, relax, and wait for the rest of the crew."
"I don't like the odds on that..." Spider-Man responded, looking at Cat Woman, then at Daredevil. "We make a good team! We need to work on a team name later on, maybe some matching colors for our suits, and--"
He was cut off by the loud scream coming from Jameson. "Oh, right. Life in peril, and all that." Spidey said, walking over to the man, and taking the web off his mouth.
"YOU'RE ALL DEAD!! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU ALL TRIED TO KILL ME!"
"We just saved your life Mister Jameson." Daredevil's voice came in calmly, and with ease. "There was a man who tried to assassinate you. Calls himself Kingpin. Have you heard of that name?"
"Kingpin? Is that another one of you clowns running around, and destroying this city?" J.J. screamed, struggling to get out of the webbing.
"Destroying the city, yes. clowns running around? really? You've written better insults at us in your paper--"
"He's an actual threat, with all due respect. We are wasting time. We need to get you to a safe location before anything else happens--"
Spider-man's senses kicked in, sending a very big alarm throughout his body. "Watch out!" He yelled. shooting a web at J.J. Jameson's chest, and pulled, the chair falling down as bullets erupted from the the windows. "They have a freaking helicopter!" Spider-Man yelled.
Daredevil was also on the ground, cussing silently. "Hey, I can get out of here the quickest, I can take J.J. somewhere safe, the helicopter won't be able to catch me!" Spider-man yelled over the guns.
"More are coming through the stairs. I don't like it, but its the only chance we got. Take him out of here, Catwoman and I will catch up!"Daredevil said. Peter hesitated, but Daredevil screamed "Go!" and he was off.
Peter grabbed Jameson after taking the webbing off, he screamed and kicked and fought as he was complaining about Spider-Man and his office being destroyed. "Alright, big guy. Time out." Spider-man said, shooting a web back at his mouth. He picked him up, put his over his shoulder, and leapt through the window. He dodged the bullets like it was nothing, time seemed to slow down. He made it to the rooftops. he landed on his feet, and started to run. He could hear the chopper right on his tail, but a few maneuvers through the skyscrapers and--
Something hit his leg, and Peter tumbled and fell, dropping Jameson. Peter was dazed, his vision blurry, but when he came to, the chopper was overhead, military men everywhere... Peter tried to stand up, but his leg felt numb. He managed to stand, and he saw something that truly shocked him.
A very, very large man dressed in an expensive white suit. His head was large and bald, his hands looked then times the size of anyone else's, and he gave a small smile at Peter.
"My, My... It takes a while for anyone to recover from this tranquilizer. You really are amazing. I've heard all about you, and you've put a dent on my business. Allow me to introduce myself. I go by Kingpin." the large man said in a suave voice. He could feel the soldiers tense up as two figures had appeared. Daredevil and Lex. They looked alright, but also terrified of the situation.
"Holy cow...You're Kingpin?" Peter managed to say, his leg still feeling weird. "How... On earth are you that big?! It looks like you ate like, twenty men, their village, their food, and then some!" Spider-man yelled. The man clenched his fists. "What?" He asked. "You're huge! Like, Connecticut could just put you over the state so you could block the rain! Hulk couldn't even pick you up--" Spider-man had his fun. A solider hit Peter on the side of his head, making him go down instantly. The tranquilizer made him loopy, and say things he wouldn't really say in such a serious situation.
Soldiers had Jameson, and throwing him into the helicopter. Kingpin smiled and shrugged. "You almost won. Some of my best men weren't enough to stop you three, but that wasn't their goal. It'd be pretty incriminating for three superheroes to come in to an anti-hero newspaper, and kidnap the owner, who also happened to be running for mayor of New York. The city would go into an outrage. People would be against Spider-man, and the Devil of Hell's Kitchen, and the infamous Black Cat. You wouldn't be able to do much. They wouldn't want crazy criminals with powers to be out on the loose."
Spider-Man could only watch. He looked over at Daredevil and Black Cat who were being pointed at by guns. They failed that bad. What was going on through their heads? How did they mess up so badly?

"Can we go now? We're going to be late."<br><br>"Well maybe if someone came down on time we shouldn't be. Come on sweetheart. Everyone in the car! You all got your lunches, right?" <br><br>----<br><br>The car rides to school were not the most heartfelt and happiest. It was debating on what to listen to on the radio, mixed with passive aggressive remarks from Marco, to Ben giving a speech on how he needs to help out and grow up. When they parked in front of the school, Marco immediately left without saying a word. "Yeah, Love you too!" Ben yelled after him, getting out of the car to help Jamie out. "Alright Little one, when does your fair start?"<br><br>"Five o'clock. But volunteers need to be there an hour early to set things up."<br><br>"Four o'clock. Got it. And... what did you sign me up to do, exactly?"<br><br>"I don't know, the school figures that out, I just put you on the list!"<br><br>"Alright, mio amore, I'll be there. Have a good day, I love you." He gave her a kiss on the forehead before letting her go off to her class. He stood next to his car, watching her meet up with her friends. She didn't seem as embarrassed of him as Marco was, it was probably because she was letting him cope with this all. She was a smart girl, too smart if you asked him.<br><br>He looked next to him to see a couple of parents (especially mothers) staring over at him. He was famous in a sense, he made a lot of interviews and did a lot of crazy things on his old show that many people would see him as a perfect human being... But he didn't feel that at all. He gave an awkward smile and wave to the crowd, getting into the car before any of them could dive into small talk. He didn't hate talking to people, it was just... difficult. Especially right now. <br><br>He would probably do what he did every day. He would call some buddies he had that were still talking about a new season for his show (and politely turn them down), clean the house, and then apparently help at this school fair. It was a change of pace from what he used to do, but this was still just as challenging.</div></div><br><br>If you have any questions about my RP's, or future ones just shoot me a PM!<br><br><span class="bb-b">Writers I adore</span><br><br><a href="https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/alexakeehl">alexakeehl</a><br><br><a href="https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/akayaofthemoon">Akayaofthemoon</a> <br><br><a href="https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/blindwoofer">blindwoofer</a><br><br><a href="https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/nightwing95">Nightwing95</a> ((We need to start a project sometime!))<br><br><a href="https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/kzombi3">KZOMB13</a><br><br><a href="https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/saz01">Saz01</a><br><br><a href="https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/sinfulskills">EasilyAmused</a> ((My oldest and best friend on the site :D ))<br><br><a href="https://www.roleplayerguild.com/users/wistfulwords">wistfulwords</a><br><br>All of these people are amazing writers and friends and if you happen to RP with them consider yourself lucky!
