Craving Alert: Looking for partner for Gary Oak-like Rivalry in a JRPG setting!

I have Gary/Blue's song from the original Pokemon games stuck in my head and this brought forth an admittedly wacky idea:

You are the Chosen One, a young hero-to-be destined to be one of the savior of the world. Problem is, the OTHER Chosen One decided their would cruise alone and take all the glory and credit and, worst of all, THEY BOUGHT THE LAST HEALING POTION IN THE STORE AND RAN AWAY LAUGHING! How rude! You'll show them, right? Right...?

From this simple idea, I have a two options I can see as being entertaining for us both to write:

Rival / Chosen One - One of us take on the role of the Rival, the other the Chosen One. From there, we will write a pretty episodic rp with solo interlude posts portraying the two's increasingly overwhelming rivalry, with or without the steady loss of care for the actual World Saving Quest that they should actually be focusing on instead.

Companion / Chosen One - In this one, a random adventurer takes pity on the poor Chosen One and decide to help them with both their Quest and their Rival problem. Expect either Romance or Bromance in the making, and a lot more adventuring and action focused on, yknow, Questing rather than backstabbing the douche who was supposed to be your brother/sister in arms. In this the Rival will be a sort of shared NPC.

That sums up my craving for now, but I do have a few expectations I want us to maintain during our partnership:

• Each post must be read over and run through a spellchecker if possible.
• Each post must have a minimum of three normally sized paragraphs (three to five lines)
• Both participants must handle plot, world-building and background character creating equally.
• Let's be friends and chat about our ideas and reactions for the rp in a separate OOC thread, shall we?
• Let's have fun, and post at least once a week!

Okay, my strange week long addiction to MUDs is now under control. I'll be more active from now on and seek partners to brainstorm and write with, thanks in advance!

Swept away, underneath the cherry blossom trees ~

Hello!

I'd definitely be interested in this, as it reminded me a little of both Tales of Symphonia and the Persona series (both games that I love to bits). I'd be happy to spin a male character with this and plot with you about what may happen and about the initial setting. Would you like to hear my ideas here or in another thread or PM?

Operation: Get Back Into Roleplaying [Any Pairings, Any Original Setting]

The thing is that I've not written anything of note for at least a month now. The need to write is strong, and I want to spin a few plots from scratch with a few other interested parties in order to shake off the rust on my skills. As such, I'm open to pretty much anything as long as it is light, fun (I don't want to be depressed right now, sorry!) and relatively easy to expand upon and gush about.

I'm a multiple paragraph poster, I love to world-build and discus events and character developments to come AND I'm super open to OOC chatter as long as we have a separate area from the IC thread for it. I can play any gender, am up for any original setting, and I'm cool with any type of pairing between consenting adults.

This is very much a pick-me-up type of partner search as I need to get back on my feet, but who knows where we could take our story with time and effort? If you're interested in building depth as we go along and thing we would mesh well, please feel free to PM or ask questions in this thread!
