Sleeth's Returning Interest Thread

Hello there Guildies, I am Sleeth, a 25 year old butcher who's been on this lovely forum since 2009. That's right, do the math. Writing and role-playing was a big part of my down time as a teenager, and translated well into my career as a butcher.

Jokes aside, I am looking to start writing again after another long hiatus, life gets pretty hectic, but this is probably the most stable it's ever been. I should be able to post at least once a week, at a casual-advanced level, but until I know how often I can truly fit in Rp again I'm only looking for a couple of 1x1s so I don't have to put anyone on the backburner.

I enjoy world building and deep story elements, revelations and plots that come together in unexpected ways over time, and sometimes might make a post that has neither of our characters in it, but shows what's happening in the dark and put of view to add more ideas to the pool. (Maybe I won't, but I might if it needs a push, or would be interesting.)

Adult themes are fine, I get smothered with blood almost every day, I couldn't care less to read about someone being cut in half. If the story is violent I might even include such things, so be sure to tell me where your lines are, and what you'd like to see. For spicier topics, FTB is fine, or it can be a more major role for you smuttier people, just let me know.

Whether you'd like an adventuring bro to write with, or a partner for a shady romance plot, I don't mind, I want to write again. All pairings are fine, and I'm comfortable writing from any perspective, as long as we're both interested in the pair overall.

Now these are by no means the only options, throw anything you want at me, but here's a few things that have poked my interest recently to get me back into writing.

-LitRpg (Realistic game experiences, not the same as a world with a system.)
-Space Western
-Post apocalyptic scenarios. (Probably with darker themes to keep it more interesting that just being alive.)
-Anything fantasy that isn't just blatantly being the best, like being the child of a God, or a generic princess x knight plot. Let's keep it interesting and new.

And anything in between, throw whatever at me, truly. Fandoms are okay, but I don't plan on playing a character from that Fandom, being in that world we can work out if it's one I know.

Prophetiae Adventum: Envoys of the Pantheon

In D&D (typically) Dragons stay in remote places or entirely different planes. The odds that a party of adventurers would ever end up fighting one that isn't an adolescent trying to assert it's dominance is pretty low. Ancient dragons, even evil ones, are usually wise enough to avoid conflict that would just get an even bigger fish to come out. That's why ancient black dragons aren't popping up to destroy the world as in some instances they so easily could, or they're just in hibernation. The world tends to have a certain balance to the forces in it, and the bigger players stay out of the way or they'll have to face each other. Gold dragons don't fight evil, Black dragons don't fight the good. If one comes out, the other will come out for balance, so it's better if none come at all.

@FrogRFlowR

Then I was right the first time :D Oh well, I adjusted it to half-elf already, and it works just as well.

Prophetiae Adventum: Envoys of the Pantheon

@FrogRFlowR

I messed up when reading through and thought the twin kingdoms were the two cities to the south, I can make an alteration to half elf, or just be a human. In the grand scheme it won't make too much difference aside from his appearance. He probably won't go flaunting that he's technically undead, just very pale.

Edit: Adjusted character to be a half-elf to be more thematically correct with the world.

Prophetiae Adventum: Envoys of the Pantheon

Kelras Eldant

Name: Kelras Eldant
Race: Half-Elf Revenant
Age: 82
Envoy of: Reemis
Description:

Alignement: Chaotic Neutral

Skills: Decades of training have honed the body of Kelras with bows and blades alike, he is dexterous, well read, artistic and physically adept, but has almost no magical potential.

Flaws:
Unwavering: Kelras has no inclination to back down in unfavorable situations, even if he puts himself into them through sheer stubbornness. He'd rather fight his way out of a dragon's den than take back something he's said.
Slothful: Anything that doesn't fall into the purview of his goals almost always takes the backburner, and only acts of direct injustice or rage truly motivate Kelras to do anything. Otherwise he's always searching for the easiest way to complete the task at hand so he can get back to whatever he truly wants or needs to do.
Apathetic/Blunt: Kelras is honest to a fault, in ways others won't always take kindly to and in no short part because of his hosts arrogance. Unless his vengeful nature towards an injustice takes the wheel, he can easily come off as rude and direct, even if his intention isn't to be insulting (though it often is.)

Background:
Kelras Eldant was scouting No Man's Land to see the progress of the advancing empire from the north when one of the unexpected new technologies rendered their hiding spots useless. Before they were given a chance to run or identify themselves, they found their position rained upon by Warforged. Unable to retaliate, Kelras fell to the ground with a bolt sticking from his chest. With blood in his lungs and the light fading from his eyes, he unwillingly shut them as his head sinks to the ground, but instead of a tunnel of light he's greeted by the sound of dripping water.

"Fragile isn't it? Life I mean." A soft voice comes from the dark around him.

Kelras shoots up to find himself in an unknown cave, and upon inspecting himself sees the gaping hole in his chest. "Who's there? Where is this?!" He demands quickly as he comes to his feet. "If this is one of your Emperor's vile magic, you'll come to regret this!"

"You're angry? Good." The voice comes again, this time there's a direction to it, but instead of a person there's only a vague outline, a shadow sitting on a nearby rock. "There's no magic here, not the kind you'd expect. You're still dying, I can hear the final beats of your heart. Tell me then, if you could get revenge, even if you wouldn't live to see it, would you?"

Kelras' face turned rather ugly, annoyed with all the questions of this shadowy person, but the hole in his chest gave some merit to the voice, and after some thought he realized that the dripping water was actually slowing down. "Are you a demon after my soul?" He asks finally.

A soft chuckle rings from upon the rock. "Nothing of the sort, your soul is yours, but your body... You only need to give it to me, I'm not a thief." The shadow comes forward, each step the featureless humanoid mass shifts until it's a blank copy of the half-elf. "I wish you had more time for me to explain. I have my own mission, and if I can conclude it I'll promise that the Empire that hurt you will join you in ruin Keldras Eldant..."

A few minutes later, in No Man's Land, a bloodied corpse takes a deep, gasping breath. Kelras' shaking hand reaches up to grasp the bolt from his diaphragm, yanking it free with a crunch and tossing it to the side. Slowly he rolls over, beginning to stand as he knows soon the shooters will come to confirm their kills. At first with staggering steps, he begins to run back to the south...

Prophetiae Adventum: Envoys of the Pantheon

@FrogRFlowR

Before I go and write out everything I immediately thought of, just to check would it be alright to play a humanoid that's technically a revenant? Was thinking of doing a minor member of the Pantheon, Reemis, and it made sense to take host in someone angrily dying in battle, and in the merging process essentially become a revenant except of course being an enjoy instead of a spirit. It has some implications like light regeneration though and a lack of real function since the host is kind of dead, so I wanted to clear it before going with that version.

@FrogRFlowR

I find this pretty interesting, I don't always have a lot of time (some days plenty, then none for days after) so something that only requires a few posts a week would be preferable. Judging by you saying you'd try to post at least weekly means that should be okay though?
