Ultralight — Roleplayer Guild

"Why?" You ask?

About a ¾ of the way into typing this, I lose the entire text and had to retype the  entire post. This is what I get for trying to make a cute thread request. 

So, here goes my second attempt. 
(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

Gah, I’m already dreading typing everything all over again. Peacocking is hard work. You better be impressed. 




W E L C O M E



The name’s Ultralight, of course! I am a twenty year old female from the USA. I live in an EST time zone, but I may be on at any hour of the day and night. This may vary. I do try to be stable, but I cannot guarantee a daily response. I have been roleplaying since middle school, so I’ve got a few years under my belt! Below, you’ll get a breakdown of my roleplay style and preference. 

Groovy Baby!


✿ Versatility & Diversity 
I prefer my partners to be versatile enough to play a diverse cast. If you are incapable or uncomfortable playing multiple roles, we may not be very compatible. If the only character in your arsenal and comfort range is a flat, ‘damsel in distress’ that can’t help a story progress, we may not be compatible. 

✿ I Accept All Genders & Gender Pairings 
It’s your choice. Regardless of your sexuality or gender, I am willing to roleplay with you. Regardless of your character’s gender and sexuality, I am willing to play against them. Whether it is romantic, sexual or platonic. [tl;dr MxF, MxM, FxF are all welcome]

✿ Teamwork Makes a Dream Work
I very much enjoy OOC chat; communication is key. I like to brainstorm together- I will ask your input from time to time. I will pitch my own ideas, and of course I would like to hear yours! You never have to bite your tongue- as long as you're respectful, I’m always all ears and open. 


✿ The Drama, The Angst, The Fluff
I like grit and darker themes. I like the saccharine fluff. Moderation is key, unless we discuss heavy emphasis on one theme. I have very few limits and I’d be willing to try writing most things. Smut, dark themes and elements, taboo relationships, abusive relationships, drug and alcohol abuse, violence, mental illness. All that 18+, R-rated stuff is on the writing table with communication. Tell me what you would like, and I’ll let you know if I am up for it. 

✿ Tell Me a Story, Sell Me a Story
I am not a novella style writer - a few decent paragraphs usually cut it for me. I don't have a word count minimum. I do, however, like to see your effort. Details make things interesting, more believable. Make me feel, make me see, make me relate. If you can do that with a single paragraph, then so be it. I average 3 to 5 paragraphs- give or take, depending on events. Less with dialogue heavy scenes or scenes that demand immediate response. More with multiple events, multiple characters, change or introduction of setting (that is being described). 
I find really long post tend to get redundant or extraneous and start to sound like this. 

✿ Faceclaims and Things
When it comes to faceclaims I tend to lean toward digital art and anime. Unless discussed, that will be my go to for faceclaims. If you prefer real life reference, you’ll have to mention that to me. 
On the topic of faceclaims and references, I sometimes enjoy really going all out. I may occasionally use references for not just characters, but also sounds, gestures or actions, settings and scenery. I don't always do it, but occasionally I will to paint a more vivid picture and to more effectively convey what I imagine. If you like it, or don’t like it - let me know and I’ll use it more or less based on your preference.
✿  ‘Bout Tree Fiddy  


How ‘Bout No!?



✗ Furries or Bestiality
Humanoid creatures (kemonomimi, werewolves, shapeshifters, for example) are fine though. 
✗ Extreme Kinks 
If you aren't sure, just ask. 
✗ Characters with no room for growth or development (i.e, Mary-Sues). 
✗Take It Personal
My characters are just that. Some are real bitches or assholes. Some might just not get along with a certain character. These characters usually come with a warning and will be discussed. But please,  never, ever  take it personally if one of my characters don't fancy yours. I think strife and tension makes things interesting sometimes. 


The Plots - Mwahaha!


Android x Human (alt. Inu x Human, Neko x Human, Supernatural (Vampire) x Human
Version i. 
My thoughts on this is that, perhaps a mechanic/engineer creates this droid for a specific purpose- military use, personal or property guard, partner in crime. So, they see the android as just that initially- a weapon, a tool. However, as the droid sort of develops personality and sentience, the creators find themselves conflicted. Seeing this creation, that is completely loyal tothem, but still putting them in harms way, even as they begin to see them as human.

Version ii. 
After an android is scrapped/discarded, another person finds it. Perhaps we could use that to spin some sort of story. Why was s/he was discarded? What technical faults s/he would have. Maybe, down the line, they encounter its creator/original owner. Maybe they're taking on some dangers, investigating some mystery or taking part in some sort of android competition or something. Or there's some sort of drama that just follows. Anyway, after meeting the creator, maybe he/she takes the android back, because he still recognizes the creator as the one in control (and is unable to disobey a command).

For example, a battle robot is discarded for it's failure as a combatant. A new person finds this robot (perhaps discovering a different skill) and takes them in. Down the line, the original owner comes to reclaim the droid (for parts, or to use as a practice bot for other droids, or to throw them back into competitive robot fights. Something along those lines, though not necessarily sticking to that. 

Neither is completely fleshed out of course, but those are my ideas! Maybe include a post apoc or fantasy element. I would also be willing to substitute the droid with an inu, neko or supernatural creature.



Brown v. Board
May 17, 1954
The U.S. Supreme Court rules segregation of America's public schools as unconstitutional. 

A decision that changed lives, gave opportunities to minorities that were otherwise denied. With the doors opened, they were finally on long the path toward equality...
Or so it seemed. 
Protests, threats and violence followed the decision. A fury with which America was familiar; racial turmoil again ripped through through the states. Integrating students were oft met with unwelcoming arms. Cursed, criticized and spat on, many were met with difficulty at the gate. 
This is a story of struggle and hate. As well as a tale of overcoming, love and prosperity. 

With disapproval from family, friends, peers, neighbors and the general public, two classmates embark on a journey that tests  strength, loyalty, love, peer pressure and prompts them to delve into a new experience that challenges their views of the world. 

Either high school or University is acceptable. 
I think this would be very interesting to explore. Racism. Peer pressure. Characters being put in difficult situations. Building trust. Straining relationships. Family criticism. Desiring acceptance. Being a social pariah. All with the struggles of being a student. 
For this I prefer to play as an African American female (or an African American male). Though, I can be convinced to play another role. 
Can be as dark or light and fluffy as we choose. Given the subject though, there will inevitably be some ugliness to it. We can only bring light to a dark situation.

Historical events and movies such as:
A Bronx Tale
Loving
Mr. and Mrs.Loving
Guess Who's Coming to Dinner
Skin




After naively pursuing the killer of his/her beloved (brother, mother, father, sister, lover, whatever), a young hunter(ress) finds herself in the clutches of his/her intended target. A vampire, the very creature she despises, is the one to show her mercy. After a near death experience as a result of a failed encounter with a vampire, Muse A's life is saved. Much to their disgrace, A has become the very bane of their existence - a dreadful creature that thrives on the death and suffering of others. It is in this experience that they struggle with temptation - faces their own humanity, wrongdoings and hypocrisies. A wise vampire teaches and displays traits that A never thought possible from monstrous vampires. Offering their own blood, the vampire insists that their blood will eventually fail to quench the thirst - feeding on a human, will eventually become necessary. How will A cope with this turn of the tides - how will they face their human friends, as the enemy.
So, for this, I imagine a higher ranked, more intelligent/civil vampire will be helping the human turned vampire (HtV). They will receive tension from both humans (who despise vampires) and vampires (who hold a grudge against the ex-hunter) or seek vengeance. Likewise, they find new friends in vampires and find that old friends now sympathize and are willing to help. Perhaps they rely on this higher ranking vampire to keep the other vampires for raging against them and for their blood (instead of human blood) but the latter will only sustain them for so long before cravings intensify. 
This can be a relationship between the human and the high ranking vampire. A relationship between the HtV and a lower ranking vampire. A relationship between the HtV and a previous ally. A love triangle. Options are plenty.

And that’s all she wrote (twice). Any questions, feel free to ask me! Message me through PMs if you are interested! I will be updating with more ideas and perhaps my characters. Feel free to request to see my characters. 
I would be willing to do a 1x1x1 - in which case, if you're interested, you can post below on this thread. And if more than one person share the same interest, and want to try 1x1x1, then I’ll PM you both and we can discuss. Some plots would be fun to have a love triangle or some polyamory. Or even just a platonic group (orphans, musicians, bounty hunters, for example). Let me know! It’d be a fun thing to try. 

Also, feel free to request your own plot ideas! This is not an extensive list of my interests, so if there's something you've been dying to try, message me and see. 
You might just get lucky. 

P.S, I don't know what's the deal with this Austin Powers theme, I just went with it.

The Real Monster

"She stopped fearing the monsters in her closet when she realized that they are brave enough to lie next to you."

We hear of tales of bloodthirsty vampires, vengeful ghosts, deceptive witches and the walking dead. But the reality of our lives are equally as frightening as such lore. Murderers, cannibals, kidnappers and powerhungry rulers. Humanity, is equally monstrous. A young woman has experienced the horrors of living - abused and used. Meek and submissive, she has adapted to her situation and survived. She doesn't put up a fight and obeys orders... Until she is challenged with a proposition. A chance at freedom... If she is willing to lose her fearful ways - willing to fight and give herself to an unlikely ally. 
A monster. 
Fear by many. 
A monster has come to her aid, after lurking in the shadows. 

Note: I assume thus monster will probably be a vampire, demon or mage, though other suggestions are acceptable. Essentially, this story will revolve around the transformation of a victim to a survivor - to a fighter. After accepting the monster's proposition, she exacts revenge on her captor/abusive lover and gives herself to the monster as agreed (a contract with a demon in exchange for his power, becoming a vampire or offering blood in exchange, or assisting the mage - we can discuss the specifics). Because the monsters prey of negative/weak emotions and desperate people, she becomes a target and eventually a vessel. 
If you would like, we can add a psychological element.
Extra Note - While the abused character is initially submissive/weak willed, she will not remain that for long. If we decide that you will play that character, keep that in mind. So, no whiny, damsel in distress type of characters. Perhaps from the very beginning, but not throughout the story.
Dealing with monsters, can make a monster of yourself. You can become the very thing you fear or hate. 

Rating: M to 18+

Possible Gender Pairings:

After this single event (overcoming an abusive situation) passes, we will need to discuss further plot and where to go after.

My Fiend

A more lighthearted take, though still a bit dark. 

A young child lives with an abusive, alcoholic parent. After a tragic event, the parent loses it and the child is on the receiving end of the backlash. She has few friends, but loves school. And wishes nothing more than her oarent to be better. One evening, as their parent rages, they lock themselves in their bedroom. After a series of events, a monster/demon reveals itself. For a while, the child had felt and feared its presence - but it turns out to be a fairly nice demon and has come to help, to protect her. 
Perhaps it takes her to it's world, or tries to harm her parent. But, the novelty soon wears and she misses home. Even her parent, she should be there to help them. 
This is more of a platonic story, but could age up and add romantic elements if desired. I have two characters in mind (one humanoid demon, one creature). 
Rating: G to M
Genre: Action, Adventure, Drama
Subject Matter: Travel/Adventure, character development, et cetera.
