Can't beat my own demons, so I beat up fictional ones instead. It's fun!

There could be a hundred hours in a day and I still wouldn't get around to half the things I need to do.

Something about winter makes me want to curl up on the couch, wrap myself in a blanket, and join way more RPs than I have time for.

This is the kind of site where you think about it every day even if you haven't actually done anything here for months. Or is that just me?

Bio
Luminosity
Hey there! Thanks for stopping by. I'm Luminosity, but feel free to call me Lumi or Lum. If you're here, I suppose that means you have some interest in me, my writing, or in roleplaying with me. Here's a bit about me and my preferences. In general, if you want to talk, about RPing or anything else, just shoot me a PM. I always try to make time for new friends.
About Me
Basics
I'm in my 20s, female, and currently trying to figure out how that whole "being an adult" thing works. I've been roleplaying on this site for a while off and on, but in general I've been roleplaying for over ten years, here and there. I'm on US Central Time currently.
Writing Level
My writing level on this site varies from casual to advanced, though the sweet spot is usually around 3-5 paragraphs per post. If I'm feeling inspired I tend to write kinda long posts, so be warned. I've never been a free-level roleplayer, and writing that little per post is typically something that makes me lose interest.
Activity
I love RPing, but I am busy quite often, and so my posting rate will vary. Sometimes I'll be able to post multiple times a day, and sometimes I won't be able to post more than once a week. Please keep this in mind if you'd like to RP with me. Also that more applies to 1x1's, I do my best to be consistent if I'm joining a group RP. My normal writing times for RP are first thing in the morning or somewhat late at night, but sometimes I can squeeze posts in during the afternoon.
Preferences
I'm mostly into fantasy RPs with a good dose of adventure and action, especially dark fantasy settings. In terms of mature content, I prefer a certain level of realism, and I'm totally fine with language and gore (I actually really like writing fight scenes). I'm happy to write romance, but I really prefer not to force it or have it be the main focus of a roleplay, but rather something that happens naturally if it feels right for my character. I've never written smut/sex scenes without fading to black, and it's not something I'm especially interested in trying. I enjoy group RPs as well as 1x1's, and while I've GMed in the past, I don't do it very often now, due to stress and time constraints.
I really only RP as female characters here, as that's just my personal preference. I write all kinds in lots of genres in my personal work, but I RP here to simply write what I enjoy most. I'm fine with taking on minor characters or NPCs of any gender if the RP needs it, though.
Games
Do You Play League of Legends?
I used to! You can probably guess who my favorite champion is. I haven't played in a long time, though, since I was never very good and ran into one too many unpleasant online experiences. I still follow the game for all of the amazing art and characters it produces, and I'm interested in the upcoming titles in that universe that aren't MOBAs.
So What Do You Play?
Lately? Apex Legends, Mortal Kombat 11, Final Fantasy (VII, VII Remake, VIII, XII, a real FF trip lately), and Resident Evil 3. Honestly, not a lot lately, just haven't had the time/interest in anything for a bit.
That's about it! Thanks for the interest, and if you want to get in touch, don't hesitate to send a PM my way. See you around :)

Ilana took a defensive step backwards after her attack was parried by the knife, twisting to keep her opponent in front of her as he tried to move around her defenses. The sword aimed for her neck clanged off of the face of her shield, which she raised to block its path. The attack successfully blocked, Ilana pointed the tip of her sword down, level with him, and thrust it forward for his midsection. As of yet she had not noticed the creature hiding behind a pillar, observing their battle.
Her shield is in her left and her sword is in her right. Really, I prefer to be casual about these fights, so I'm not all that big on nitpicking details.
"You leave me no choice, then," Ilana stated, the lines of her face hardening as she prepared for the fight. The footing was fairly treacherous with the ice, but the same had been true outside, and her boots were studded enough to find a grip in most spots. She moved forward, keeping her guard up with the shield, and making a broad slash diagonally down at the hooded man.
Ilana paused when confronted with the hooded figure, eyeing his armament and stance. She raised her own shield defensively, leveling her sword on top of it, the point angled at the man blocking her way. She had been about to speak when a small horde of bats descended upon her; she ducked down behind her shield until they passed. Shaking her head at the annoyance, she returned her attention to the hooded man.
"Well, I can't turn back, can I?" She gestured with her head to the collapsed doorway behind her. She could burn through it with her shield and sword, perhaps, but there was nothing on the other side but death at the hands of an undead horde. No, she couldn't go back. This figure wasn't silently trying to murder her yet, like the skeletal warriors outside had, but she didn't like the sound of his voice at all. Certainly no friend. "If you don't stand aside, I'll have to force the issue. I'm not staying here, and I can't go back, which means I must go forward."

Bump.
Bumping again.
Bumping. Looking to see if anyone else is interested.
I'd prefer an original setting, I think, also because my character doesn't really fit with Mass Effect.
In a futuristic sci-fi setting, two deadly assassins from rival organizations are assigned each other as targets, each believing the other to have meddled in their business for far too long. The assassins come together on a busy space-station, a sort of crossroads between heavily populated systems, complete with packed markets, its own security force, a medical wing, residential apartments, and much more. This space station would become a playground for the two assassins to carry out their brutal battle with one another, to see which was superior.
This is inspired by a certain story Wrex tells Shepard in the first Mass Effect game, and technology levels would be relatable to that. I will be playing a female assassin, but you may feel free to play either gender. This 1x1 will have a lot of combat between our characters, so I would prefer a partner who is at least somewhat familiar with how RP combat works, though I’m pretty laid back about that, and willing to work with less experienced people as well, just let me know if you’re unsure about something. As for the writing level, I'm going to class this as Casual, but I do still expect quality, in both your character and in your posts. I won't require more than 1-2 paragraphs per combat post, as those tend to be naturally shorter, but posts outside of that will likely be somewhat longer.
I expect the characters to have quite a bit of skill, obviously, considering both will be successful assassins, but please note that I am not attracted to all-powerful badasses feared throughout the galaxy, and I won't be too thrilled if you send me one as a character. I will provide you with my character before I ask you to write yours, so you'll have some idea of the level I'm looking for.
The idea here is that the two assassins would grow an admiration for one another through their fights, and also that they might be able to speak to one another through communicators when one or both needs to retreat to lick their wounds. The idea of it going in a romantic direction over time is very interesting to me, so while there will be a lot of fighting, please note that I'm looking to explore other things as well. I’d prefer to RP through PMs on the site here.
If this sounds interesting to you, please let me know, and we can start to iron out some details!

Still looking for potential dungeon masters, evil overlords, and the like.
