Hello there! So I've been playing Dragon Age: Inquisition again, and it's given me a huge craving for a roleplay.
I'm not too picky, but I do have a few rules:
Be patient with me! I can go from posting once/multiple times a day to a few times a week. Sometimes it's on a weekly basis if I'm having trouble writing. I will try to let you know if it'll be a long wait, though.
Please have a decent grasp on how to write. I can deal with intermediate and up, but I would like seeing more people using correct grammar and spelling (at least in the roleplay). We all make mistakes, though, so I won't jump down anyone's throat for little errors. I do prefer adept level, however.
I would prefer it if you could give me at least 2 paragraphs. I can go from that to 8 pretty easily. I do prefer quality over quantity, however. I'll usually try matching what I get.
Don't mind playing a male or doubling. I usually like playing a female OC, and I do like pairing them up with canon males. I'll do the same if we end up doubling.
I prefer roleplaying over PM, so please be alright with that.
Tell me your favorite color in your PM so I know you read my rules! (As much as I hate to add this in, people seem to skip these.)
Please be 18+ if you want any romance in this! I kinda feel funny writing that kind of thing with younger people.
Key: Anything with an asterisk (*) beside it is something I really want to do, and my preferred roles will be in parentheses.
Pairings:
Alistair x (OC)
Zevran x (OC)
Anders x (OC)*
Cullen x (OC)*
Iron Bull x (OC)*
Dorian x (OC)*This'll obvs be with a male Inquisitor/character. It'll be my first m/m pairing though, so bear with me
(Mage) x Templar*
(City Elf) x Dalish
Inquisition Agent x Inquisition Agent
(Elf Servant) x Chevalier
OC x OC
Note: There are probably a hundred things I could think of, so feel free to suggest something if there's a pairing/plot that you'd like to use!
Plots and Ideas:
Mage x Templar:* After a daring escape, a mage is hunted down using the phylactery she left behind. Once the templar catches up to her, he realizes that he knows her. Once he learns the reason for her escape, will he have it in him to bring her back?
Mage x Templar: A particularly talented and withdrawn young mage has been accused of dabbling in blood magic by a slighted Apprentice. Instead of passing judgment without proof, they assign a templar to watch her on a daily basis.
Can't Trust a Darkspawn:* The Warden let the Architect go to continue its research, which proved to be a bad idea. Some time later, townspeople and Wardens a like begin disappearing. A group is hired and sent to investigate. After some searching, they find that the Architect actually had no active role in it. Instead, one of the darkspawn it "liberated" has begun its own experimentation. With that, it has begun creating an intelligent army with the intention of avenging its fallen brethren.
1.) As with a lot of games like these, I often think of what might happen if the bad guy won: So, the Inquisition failed and Corypheus managed to make himself a "god". Some people still resist, although organized resistances never last long. When a pair (or a group) of these rebels stumble upon an ancient source of power, it dawns on them that their adversary might not be as untouchable as everyone thought. (Still pretty vague; would have to figure out what they found and why it hasn't been confiscated/destroyed by now, among other things.)
2.) Something to do with The Enigma of Kirkwall because I think there's a LOT of material there.
3.) Not really a plot idea, but using alternative Inquisitor origins would be pretty interesting. I saw a post on tumblr once about, say, an Elven servant or a Tranquil mage getting caught up in all of it. (With the mage, being sucked into the Fade might somehow restore their connection to it and reverse the process? I dunno. Would really like to try that one out though.)
4.) Would like to try out a Hedge Mage character as well. Possibly with a Templar or a traditionally instructed mage.
5.) I'd also like to do an Anders x (Hawke) kind of thing set after DA2, so it's well into the mage rebellion and all that. Would it be something they tried to resolve after realizing how out of control and horrible it became? Would they still be intent on seeing it through?
SO those Titans, eh? I would kind of like to come up with a plot that involves one of them waking up and causing problems on the surface (or underneath). So maybe it doesn't endanger Orzammar, but bad things do tend to happen when openings in the Deep Roads appear. The Titan would have to be stopped (probably like it was, but it'd be more difficult without Valta and all that). Or we could have it end a different way completely. I just like the idea of a world-shaping being coming to live and causing mayhem.
I thought it might be cool to have a roleplay concerning Solas' plot to change the world and all that. It doesn't much matter if we decide to explore what might happen if he succeeds, or if we play out the attempt to stop him. (Also great because I don't know if things are going to be happening in Tevinter next??)
I'll probably be adding to these as I think of more. c:
So that's about it! Send me a PM if you're interested!
I figured I'd stick this in a hider to cut down on the wall of text. Anyway, feel free to call me Crimson or Kay if you'd like. I'm in my 20s, and I've been roleplaying for about 10 years. I think I write at a high casual to advanced level, for reference.
Rules:
Please be alright with mature content. This could very well end up 18+, and I do plan on there being some violence and gore involved.
Please be literate! I realize most of you are, but I'm looking for someone (or a few people) who can really get into developing the world I have in mind. I would prefer 2-3 paragraph posts, but more would also be welcome. I also would hope you have a decent grasp of spelling and grammar. Everyone makes mistakes, though, so I'm willing to overlook small ones.
Please be somewhat active. I can do one post a day on average, but I might be able to do more if inspired. There might be days when I forget or just don't feel up to replying as well, so please bear with me if that happens. I promise I'll do the same!
Please be alright with playing more than one character. I think doubling would work well if we're doing this one on one. Having side characters is also a must.
Please be alright with doing this via PM. I just prefer that since it's easier to keep track of.
The reason for their emergence was unknown. Perhaps a ritual raised them, or perhaps it was just time for their slumber to end. Some called them Titans, and others Old Gods. They were ancient, and too powerful to defeat. Civilizations crumbled, the great cities of mankind burning to the ground. Humanity survived, forming nomadic bands or hiding away in remote places of the world. Some worshipped the behemoths roaming the land, offering up ritual sacrifices to appease them. Through such efforts, some cities were rebuilt. However, most humans remained scattered, fighting for survival.
We will play a group of humans as they go about their daily struggles. Will this take place right in one if the cultists cities? Will we be a ragtag bunch of nomads? Will we be merely content to deal with the current state of the world, or will we seek to change it?
This can take place in a more historical setting, perhaps in a fantasy land with magic and what to. Or, we can opt for a setting where humanity has been knocked back to the dark ages by their return. I do plan on having the gods be able to die, so it's not an impossible struggle if we go that route.
