Bio

I like writing about strange people put into uncomfortable situations that force them to think creatively to overcome them. Brain worms currently include the Yakuza franchise, The Last Sovereign JRPG, Dragon Age, WH40K, Disco Elysium, and True Detective. Writing sample down below.

There is a pestilence in this city.

When I look into the eyes of our citizens, I see hate and fear.

As if we are to blame.

As if we were not the ones that had saved what little lives they had left.

Tribune 'Father' Clide, shortly before a mob tore him to pieces.


In this noblebright universe, things aren't very noble and they aren't very bright. Before an immeasurable horde of undead tore the world apart, notions of chivalry and the obligations of a feudal lord were held sacrosanct; a peasant's lot in life was meant to be simple, but prosperous. Now? A man will spend weeks in a mine so that their daughters and wives may not have to sell themselves on the street for bread.

At the center of it all, the once proud jewel of an ancient republic stands tall amongst the filth, depopulated and economically exhausted from having blunted the full wrath of the apocalypse, its once vast empire crumbling to pieces as separatist movements once thought unthinkable have taken root. At the center of it all is a great schism between plebian elected officials and their reactionary counterparts, the old sword aristocracy who had been the ones to fend off the scourge and paid the price of it in wealth and friends and serfs alike; they bulk at what needs to be done to save their plagued homeland.

At the head of the reformers is Ilya, a staunch Republican who espouses the need to return to democratic roots, the redistribution of land, the reopening of schools and the grain dole and all other sorts of things that have galvanized the public's support behind her.

In her, a Fellowship of heroines that had lead the charge against the undead threat see hope in saving the dream they had of a utopian world, one free of the lethargy and apathy of the upper classes. They throw their lot behind her, promising to serve at her beck and all; whatever may be necessary to see her policies take effect.

Unfortunately for them, Ilya has only vile intentions.

I'm an advanced-novella RPer with writing samples in my profile (and expecting the same) searching for a GM. IRL gender is irrelevant. Despite my exposition above, I'm locked and married to very little; namely a distraught, forsaken empire being in peril. The idea behind this RP is meant to be to explore the idea of a NOBLEBRIGHT setting that's fallen apart at the seams through the eyes of a [[Senator]] woman with lofty ambitions hijacking a populist movement for her own ends, only ever intending on seizing power for herself. Fortunately for her, her political movement is aided by the arrival of a legendary group of heroines that had defeated the evil of ages past and has pledged their service to her, essentially naming Ilya as their 'QUEST GIVER' NPC who will hopefully lead them to building a new, free-loving empire.

Unfortunately, the quests Ilya sends them on are only to serve her interests, and she has no intention of sharing power with anybody -- and wishes to see nothing more than them on their knees forever.

Kinks: Evil bitches being conniving, femdom and lesbianism, internalized homophobia, slowburn seduction, gaslighting, politics and taxes, D/s couples, collars, domesticization, warriors being turned into harlots, spankings, orgasm denial and control, genuine charisma and atmosphere-building. Most other vanilla and mild kinks.

Kinks: Everything extreme. I don't have any desire to see non-con as a fetish (only as an element of worldbuilding just like poverty and disease and slavery), or tentacles or animals or hyper anything or porn logic or porn dialogue, futas, etc.

No. I don't care about the gender of my GM, nor will Sylvan care about such things in the RP.

Pulling a U-Turn here from my usual prompts where I play a female lead. With my primary RP being put on hiatus and leaving my current favorite character out to dry for the time being, I'm keen on putting him to use in another person's GMed setting.

For folk that would be interested in a taste of Sylvan in a RP as well as seeing a writing sample-

Sylvan, also known as the fellow whom my account name is based off of due to how sweet on him I am. As much as I'm not a big fan of giving away my character's most dirty of secrets and wishes outside of a story, I'm quite comfortable rambling about Sylvan as a concept. Whilst Sylvan Varain - the man whom exists within the universe of Mortal Son - is an incredibly rigidly defined individual with specific goals and interests, Sylvan will be much more 'open to interpretation' as it was in his most contextual of wants.

Disclosure aside, Sylvan is an orderly, talkative fellow who does his best work under pressure. Though within the story I'd like to write about he's raised to the aristocracy as some form of lesser noble, he cares little for the glory of war and the prospect of lordly duties and comes off as being more interested in propping up his government with merchants and moneylenders than his fellow nobiles and gentry. For all intents and purposes, making money and spending money on public works and infrastructure seem to be all that occupies his mind, wheeling and dealing with even as unscrupulous individuals as smugglers to expand the economy, engaging in pirating and raiding on respectable (slave) ships to free those aboard whilst plundering the wealth to be shared.

Enjoying the presence of cats and people of both sexes, his mouth is rarely closed, and as much as he is a smart-ass, he does have a clever, imaginative mind that allows him to think often outside the box and employ unique strategies to get his way; combined with his otherwise charming personality and pleasant demeanor, he makes for a steady administrator and statesman. This applies just as well to the battlefield; though he isn't keen on the prospect of the expenses involved raising armies, they have their uses, and he hardly expects his increasingly disenfranchised and ousted nobles to take the change in policy quietly.

Essentially, he's a smart, handsome boy who likes men and women who can hold conversations with him, and happens to be a 'hands-on' ruler.

As for the plot and themes of the story; my wish is that Sylvan be someone of unsubstantial importance to politics, a freedman most likely, a former slave, whom will, within the story, be granted power (through some convention or another) and will gradually, through shrewd decision-making and context, rise to power as his allies and personal growth expand. I'd, at the very least, expect large amounts of attention and time being spent on topics such as economics, trade, domestic and foreign policy, commerce, inflation, warfare and logistics, and all sorts of other things involving the responsibilities of a head of government.

I've no negotiable interest in Alternative Earth, Historical, or Sci-Fi settings. The most advanced technology I can conceivable be interested in is whatever was the most innovative invention at the start of the seventeenth century.
