Hmmm... I'll be watching this.
Full for now!
Added a plot-- Mage x Knight.
Still looking.
Still looking.

My name is Ambra! I've come back from a slight hiatus to see if I'm lucky in snagging one or two roleplay partners this time around. I come asking for both fandoms and roleplay plots centered around sword-totting, spell-weaving, monster-hunting, and bad-guy-slaying adventurers! But first, a little bit about me~

I am a 27-year-old woman who loves writing, playing video games, drawing, animals, anime, and everything else of that sort! I graduated from a MFA in English with a Concentration in Creative Writing this past summer. I'm currently in the process of finishing up a novel I'm writing. I'm hoping that participating in 1x1s, along with meeting new people, will carry me through the last chapters of my book.

I have four dogs, a cockatiel, a ball python, and a bearded dragon! I've also been in a LDR with a loving boyfriend for almost a decade.

Now that you know the basics about me, let's move along!



1.) I only roleplay with people 18 and older and through PMs. Not only am I more comfortable with writing with people who are adults, my roleplays tend to get a bit on the spicier side regarding dark themes, violence, grit, etc.

2.) Posting frequency! I would prefer if my partner posts 2-3 times a week. More is welcome!

3.) I would like to play with people who have a strong grasp on language/grammar. We all make mistakes, but if your posts are difficult to read/are far too short, then I'm afraid we're not a good match. If possible, I'd like to see post examples from your end. If you'd like, I can also send you mine! Usually, my posts are around 3-4 paragraphs long, but may get longer or shorter. Even then, my posts usually don't go under one paragraph long, and even then that's rare.

4.) My roleplays must have romance in them. I am desperate to write romance with someone! I haven't written something angsty, sappy, or spicy in so long~ ;) I am most comfortable with MxF, though depending on the plot and characters, I can also write MxM.

5.) I will not consider CanonxCanon or OCxCanon plots. I don't like writing characters that aren't mine, sorry.

6.) I usually play females, but am more than willing to double up/make a cast of characters to compliment your own! I like writing as multiple characters during roleplays. Please note that I expect my partner to do the same!

7.) I do NOT use real-life faceclaims. Anime/semi-realistic faceclaims only, please! I am uncomfortable using real life faceclaims for my characters. The same thing goes for my partners. Please use either anime-styled faceclaims for your characters! If you can't find anything, you are also more than welcome to submit semi-realistic art as well.

8.) Please have Discord! I love chatting with people about plots, worldcrafting, and characters! Discord is easier for me to use to chat, so I'd prefer if my partner has it!

9.) Do NOT ghost me. If you ever feel like discontinuing the roleplay, please let me know and don't leave me in the blue.

10.) Have fun! If, for any reason, you're not having a good time with your characters or plots, please let me know! I'll do anything I can to ensure you're having a fun time. Communication is key!



Note: I will not do anything taboo when it comes to romance; I am pretty vanilla.
- Enemies to lovers
- Slow burn
- Love at first sight
- Extreme passion
- Angst
- Love triangles
- Jealousy

★ = CRAVING!


MENTIONS: Iris [@Serei2477], Bianca [@Majoras End], Mika [@Solace], Astrid [@LuckyBlackCat], Sebastien [@King Cosmos]

Everyone in Hestia’s vicinity appeared to be fine, thank Arceus. Yet, with the end of the battle came questions. What were those Pokemon? What did they want with Postwick? Did they want to kidnap Iris next? There were too many people asking questions that Hestia couldn’t answer. She turned her face to the ground as her fingers curled tighter around Lazuli’s Pokeball. What a mess this whole thing was. And they couldn’t even grab someone to bring in for questioning; the terrorists were sure quick to flee. If they wanted to take away Iris, they wouldn’t have given up so easily. They knew exactly what they were doing. That was the scary part.

”I don’t know,” she referred to everyone’s question in a solemn, singular statement. ”What I’m sure of is that we need to get word to the Chairman, ASAP. He needs to know about what happened.”

Thankfully, Mika was already on that. Hestia swept her gaze over their number, blinking at Iris. She was grateful she was fine, but she couldn’t help but feel concerned for her coworker. If the strange individuals came back for her while they were away, would she be able to fend them off by herself? She almost flinched when Bianca approached her, but instantly became eased by her gentleness.

”Yeah, we should go,” Hestia nodded. Before she went on her way, she turned to the rest of them. ”Keep your wits about you and call me if they come back.”




That evening…

MENTIONS: Everyone

Cane called every single gym leader to Wyndon that very day, explicitly stating that Hyacinth wasn’t taking any “if”s, “and”s, or “but”s from anyone. The conference room felt very cramped, and she was sure that two or three other gym leaders had brushed past her in nervous attempts to grab a proper chair, lest they had to stand while listening to the Chairman’s speech. For once, he was there before everyone else. His face was flushed, though his lips were a straight line and there was a strange light to his eye that Hestia didn’t recognize. When everyone was present, he took his place at the head of the overly crowded table and began the meeting.

”I have several announcements to make. As you know, there were attacks on two important government buildings today– the lab in Wyndon and the gym in Postwick. At the moment, we have no idea who these culprits are or what their intentions are, but we have settled that the attack on Postwick was nothing more than a distraction to prevent any other gym leaders from helping out at the laboratory.” Hyacinth’s voice was gruff, almost as if he was tired of speaking. ”Thankfully, there were no fatalities in either of the attacks, though several civilians and police officers had to be hospitalized. These individuals are expected to make full recoveries.

”While we don’t have any significant information on these terrorists, Gym Leader Fiona does have something to say about one of her encounters with the leader of the attack at the laboratory,” Hyacinth nodded at Fiona.

"Right, so, uh..." Fiona sighed, scratching the back of her head awkwardly. "Disclaimer, this ain't exactly a good explanation. Ain't like I know th' cocksuck's name or anything. But long story short, back when I was in Orre, I wound up battlin' that cunt inna tournament. Wanker had th' most fucked up Salamence I'd ever seen an' he was mistreatin' it something fierce. So since Orre was a lawless shitehole at th' time, I might've gotten him drunk after th' tourney an' stolen his Salamence off of him. An' aye, that's Felon." She held up the Ultra Ball containing her Salamence at that for a moment before continuing on.

"At th' time, Felon was, an' I'm fairly fuckin' sure that Alakazam an' Steelix were all Shadow Pokemon. If ya don't know what that is, imagine some dipshite scientist decides tae turn a regular Pokemon into a killin' machine through chemicals or science or whatever. They ain't got no compunction about fatalities wit' other Pokemon or humans, an' they take any order they're given unless they go berserk. More importantly fer fightin' em, they all got special moves an' whatnot that just outright bleedin' ignore type advantage. Alla these 'Shadow Moves' are super-effective, no matter what they hit. Ya can rehabilitate them into regular Pokemon again, like I did wit' Felon, but it takes time an' some magic fuckin' rock in one of th' only nice places in Orre. I think. Dunno, heard somethin' about a machine round th' time I was leavin'. That all said, ya can't exactly tell if a Pokemon's Shadow or not without context clues or if they bust out one o' those moves." Fiona rapped her knuckles against the table for a few moments, as if trying to remember more.

"Think that's everything I got, really. So if these cunts're using more o' those, that's a problem. Happy now, boss?"

”Thank you for your explanation.” Hyacinth nodded again, then turned to the rest of the gym leaders, looking even more tired than before. ”If we are dealing with these so-called “Shadow Pokemon” on top of the hybrid beasts that were reported to be seen at Postwick, we will have to consult with experts in Pokemon biology. I would like to let you know that we are in frequent contact with Professor Hawthorn, who is also in the process of contacting experts in Orre. She is also likely to reach out to any one of you in order to garner further information– I expect you to help her if she requests any sort of aid, whether it be with research, odd jobs, or whatever else.

”That leads to my third announcement… which is, at this point, difficult to make,” Hyacinth persisted after a long pause. ”Holly Holbrok has gone missing as well. She appears to have been abducted in a manner similar to what happened with Ryker– in whose case, there have not been any recent updates on his own disappearance. Regarding Holly, her home was found in shambles and her Pokemon were taken along with her.”

Hestia broke out into a sweat. Another one of them taken? Which one of them was next? Nordrin? Fiona? Bianca?

”... and though things are becoming more difficult to deal with regarding the Gym Challenge, I’ve decided to have Sawyer take her place for the time being. He is no means a permanent replacement and will be expected to step down as soon as Holly returns to her post.”

She grit her teeth, bristling. ”Sir, is this really--”

”As of now, I have no intention of canceling the Gym Challenge. But if things become too dangerous for both its competitors and my gym leaders, I will have no other choice than to do so,” Hyacinth told them as he swept his gaze over the room. It was almost as if he had ignored her completely. ”Until then, I expect you to all focus on your duties as gym leaders and maintain morale. Do not cater to the press or paparazzi. I know that they have been harassing most of you, but if they persistently intrude on your boundaries, then you are more than allowed to gently use your Pokemon to get them to leave you alone. If that doesn’t work, you may call the police, which will lead to their arrests. At this point, they are more than aware that they should not be hounding after gym leaders for information.

”Above everything else, I demand that you remain safe in this situation and maintain consistent contact with your fellow gym leaders. If you wish, you may board with one another in order to keep an eye on your comrades. I do not mind what else you do in order to keep each other safe, as long as it is in compliance with my requests. We cannot manage to lose yet another of your members.”

When Hyacinth finished his announcements, he clasped his hands behind his back and nodded at them once again. ”That is all for now. If you need anything, please contact Cane, Professor Hawthorne, or myself.”

The Chairman left without letting anyone respond to his statements, and that was that.


MENTIONS: Iris [@Serei2477], Bianca [@Majoras End], Mika [@Solace], Astrid [@LuckyBlackCat], Sebastien [@King Cosmos]

If there was any time that Hestia was extraordinarily glad for the presence of other gym leaders, it would probably be now. The strange, chimera-like beasts prowled closer and closer still, their saliva dripping onto the pathway. A drawn-out hiss emitted from the puddles of thick murk as the fluid gnawed away at the grass it came in contact with. As soon as they were near her, however, Astrid burst out of the gym with both of her Pokemon. Aries’ Power Gem slammed straight into the neck of one of the beasts, earning its ire in the form of a great howl of pain, the pack turning towards the new enemy. The other beast screeched even louder and vomited up a blob of purple muck towards the Pokemon that had appeared– only for it to splatter against the Ampharos’ Light Screen. It stood there, confused, until a Shadow Ball slammed into its side and sent it crashing into a nearby patch of shrubbery.

”Lazuli! Dragon Rush!” Hestia took the opening as soon as it had presented itself to her. Huffing, the injured Salamence roared and cloaked itself in an azure light before it slammed into the other distracted “Pokemon”. It howled in pain, writhing as it struggled to stand up, but Lazuli took it upon himself to finish it off with another Dragon Claw.

More still came. The masked individuals howled more commands at the beasts, which made them pelt down the path towards them. At that point in time, the others had arrived. Through the combination of Sebastien’s Murk and Mika’s (fool-hardy) Centurion, a large number of their forces had either been washed away or torn apart by the wrath of the earth around them. Hestia grit her teeth as Lazuli landed next to her in a rush of wind, raising a hand to comfort her pained Pokemon once again. It appeared that they had this.

The enemy’s strategy finally came apart at the seams when the other Pokemon that had recently arrived at the entrance were promptly greeted with a Confuse Ray and Night Shade from Iris’ own Pokemon. Three of the Nido-Arcanine promptly began to maul each other in their bewilderment. Hestia stared in horror as their fangs, horns, and claws dug into each other’s hides without mercy, flinging both fur and flesh into the air, their teammate now having become the bane of their wrath. One of the Pokemon collapsed to the floor in a frenzy of howl as the other two dug into it, still confused. With all of the blood that was pouring out of the poor thing, Hestia thought that they would kill it right there and then. Thankfully, they, too, were finished off by Bianca’s Froslass’ Icy Wind before they could end the beast’s life.

”Leave them!” The commander, or so it appeared, of the strange platoon shouted from their position in the back of their cluster. ”We’ve done our job! Retreat!”

Hestia couldn’t see where the voice came from, though before she realized it, their enemies were already recalling their Pokemon into Pokeballs she had never seen before. Hissing in frustration, she took a step forward and reached to grab another of her Pokeballs, though paused when she heard Lazuli groan in pain again. She turned towards her Salamence as he slumped to the floor, fatigued. By the time she knelt at his side, the squadron of would-be terrorists had fled on the backs few Nido-Arcanine that remained healthy enough to ride. In a matter of sheer moments, the gym leaders were left behind in the dust that was kicked up by the beasts’ massive paws.

”Lazuli…” Hestia murmured, stroking the dragon’s neck. He whimpered in exhaustion and peered up at her in a silent question. ”You did great.”

He let out a rumbling sigh as his eyes slid closed. Recalling him into his own Pokeball so that he wouldn't suffer more than he already had to, she straightened up and glared at the rest.

”Is everyone else okay? Anyone hurt?”

Hestia knew she had to maintain composure. Those who knew her well, however, could tell that she didn’t quiver with adrenaline or shock, but with pure rage. She didn’t care who had done this– all she knew was that she’d make them pay for attacking innocent civilians and hurting her beloved Pokemon.
