I have a lot of interest in roleplays with supernatural, science fiction, horror elements. I also love heart-warming, romantic, warm moments. So, if you can combine those, I would absolutely love it. I have a lot of interest in southern gothic stories, ghosts, traditional vampires, aliens, and creepy crawly monsters. I feel like I generally don't like how superheroes are handled, but I like the concept of a masked vigilante fighting crime. For example, I liked the idea of the Scarlet Pimpernel, and that his wife was in love with his alternate life. I'm not interested in heroes with limitless power.

Plots
I like straight and homosexual romance. When I make these plots, it's not because I'm settled on a certain idea.
