Bio


give me all the vampire romance RPs


Hello, friends!

I'm Lettie! I'm a 27-year-old lady living in Wisconsin with my wonderful husband, two cats, and a flock of chickens.

I'm a bit of an RPG veteran; I joined somewhere between 2010-2011 (before the Guildfall of 2015), and spent many of my teenage years on this site, frequenting the Spam forum (see: racking up infraction points) or relentlessly refreshing the page, waiting on RP replies.

Not much has changed.

I've been quite on-and-off in my activity here over the years (err, decades. God, I'm old.), but with the way life is going currently, I'm hoping to become a semi-permanent fixture around here once more!

While I enjoy the occasional group RP, I am a big sucker for a good romance, which doesn't always translate well there. (I am also victim to the Group RP Curse: they get abandoned pretty quickly in my experience.) Therefore, you'll most likely find me in a series of 1x1s.

I like to think of myself as a high-casual/low-advanced writer. I think I could certainly exceed that if necessary, but the RPs I tend to participate in often only require 3-7 paragraphs to get the point across, however detailed, rather than a short novel. Not that I'm opposed, but I'm no Dickens -- I'm not going to make the description of the tip of a pen last 6 pages if I don't feel like it adds anything to the story.

I am all about ~the vibes~. I will make playlists, AI fan art, Pinterest moodboards, etc. involving our characters. I'll find gifs and images that resemble the settings, to add visual appeal. I like to go back and format my posts so they're more aesthetically pleasing. I am a gushy person and fall in love with the stories rather easily. If you'd rather I didn't share these things with you, let me know!

When I'm not spamming the refresh button here, I can usually be found with my nose in a book, or playing video games (think more Animal Crossing and TLOZ, less COD or Overwatch and the like). I'm a software engineer, though I'm on a bit of a sabbatical at the moment, so I guess I'm more of a stay-at-home wife.

My 1x1 Interest Check can be found here.

I like to think I'm a pretty friendly and open person, so if you'd like to bring an RP idea to my attention, or just chat and tell me about your day (or send me pictures of your cats), my DMs are always open! I'm also happy to add folks on other socials and make friends!

Lyra Winterborn




Dark Elf | Female | 30


Skills/Abilities

Proficient in archery and one-handed weapons. Prefers a stealth approach but can get down in up-close encounters when needed. Partial to light armor, skilled in survival in harsh terrain, theft, and alchemy. Has some skill in destruction magic, but has no formal education so her magic is a bit finicky. Uses it sparingly, but would like to learn.

Factions/Affiliation

Independent (Initially)

Home City/Region

Windhelm, but has travelled much of Skyrim and is a bit of a nomad.

Backstory

Lyra grew up in the harsh environment of Windhelm, enduring poverty and discrimination as an elf in a city fraught with racial tension. Determined to survive, she learned to fend for herself and on the streets, eventually becoming a skilled fighter. She distrusts authority and prefers to rely on herself, having been let down by others in the past. Despite her tough exterior, she holds strong beliefs in justice and fairness, often taking up causes against oppression, injustice, and tyranny.

Equipment/Weapons

Carries a sturdy steel mace, along with a bow for ranged combat. She wears light armor, usually whatever she can get ahold of until it wears out, and has tattoos displaying symbols associated with her dark elf heritage.

Goals/Motivations

To find a sense of purpose and belonging beyond just survival. To confront the demons of her past. To make a lasting connection with someone and not lose them, as everyone she has ever loved has died.

Personality Traits

Tough, independent, guarded, principled, compassionate (once trust is earned), loyal, a bit brash, sarcastic, witty.

Strengths

Skilled fighter and thief, stealthy, resourceful, resilient, strong-willed, quick thinker.

Weaknesses

Stubborn, distrusting, can be reckless when provoked, struggles with vulnerability and opening up to others.

Additional Notes

Lyra is a complex character who carries the weight of her past with her. While she may initially come off as abrasive or distant, she harbors a deep sense of empathy and compassion beneath her tough exterior. As she forms connections with others and learns to trust, she may reveal layers of vulnerability and warmth that few get to see.
Oathbreakers



In the rugged expanse of Skyrim, where ancient ruins
and towering mountains reign, two unlikely companions find themselves
bound by fate and driven by a shared quest for redemption. Lyra, a
hardened Dark Elf with a past shrouded in shadows, and her enigmatic
companion, Finrod Morningstar, an Altmer elf of the Aldmeri Dominion,
traverse the unforgiving landscape, haunted by the ghosts of their past.

United by a common goal, they embark on a perilous journey that will
test their resolve and challenge their beliefs. From the depths of
forgotten dungeons to the peaks of snow-capped mountains, they
encounter allies and adversaries alike, each holding a piece of
the puzzle that will unravel the mysteries of their intertwined destinies.

Uncovering secrets along the way, they are thrust into a world of
intrigue and betrayal, where loyalties are tested and alliances
forged in blood. With the fate of Skyrim hanging in the balance,
Lyra and Finrod must navigate treacherous terrain and confront the
demons of their past, lest they succumb to the darkness that
threatens to consume them.

In a land torn asunder by war and strife, where dragons soar
and legends come to life, the path to redemption is fraught
with peril. Will Lyra and Finrod rise above their pasts and fulfill
their destiny, or will they succumb to the shadows that lurk
within their souls? Only time will tell in this epic tale of
honor, betrayal, and the enduring power of companionship.
I would have one point in my home and one point at my mom's house, because I miss her a lot and would love to just have cozy afternoon chats over tea and be a part of each others' daily lives again.

My question: Would your 13 year-old self think you, today, are cool? Why or why not?

Hello and welcome to the Guild! Hope you enjoy yourself and find some great writing opportunities :)
Hello and welcome! You chose a great place if new content is what you're looking for -- there's the occasional cliche as we all have our guilty pleasures but I think you'll find a lot of creativity here.
Okay SO for the On The Road plot I really like the idea of a young like just-out-of-highschool-aged girl, pretty straightedge, hitchhiking with truck drivers. Maybe she could be a runaway, tired of her conventional white-bread life, or maybe she has a fantasy of becoming an actress/musician and needs to get to California but she's never had to work a day in her life so she doesn't have a car or anything. Was Ivy-league bound and got fed up and dropped her whole life. Has made her way maybe a quarter of the way into her journey with nothing but bad, gross experiences and is about to just give up and go running back home when she runs into a truck driver / vagabond / whatever and they get to talking and she actually gets along with him and hitches a ride with him and then when he drops her off because he's at his stop, she's actually kinda sad that she has to leave and wants to stick around but doesn't wanna be even more of a burden so she takes off and then a few days later, by sheer chance, they meet again and that's when things really start to kick off.

I'm so so sorry if this sounds nonsensical and unorderly. As soon as I saw your hitch-hiking suggestion, my mind took off and I kind of just regurgitated my thoughts, I assure you I do have a more organized thought process than what I have probably portrayed, haha.

Obviously none of that at all is set in stone, and I don't want it to be too cutesy, it should still have edge to it and maybe some dark plot twists. It's just a baseline for an idea, please let me know what you think if you're interested :)
I would be cool with trying the teenage pregnancy or the Hayley x Kehlani inspired one! ( I love them so much and when I saw what video you linked, I may or may not have internally squealed lol)
