Rp Searching Time

[NyxAvatar69]

Hello, and welcome to my little corner of hunting for RPs to do.  While I could do some lengthy introduction, I think we all know why we're here, so let's jump right into it.

The General Stuff and Things

-My post length varies depending on what's going on in the RP.  Not one-liners, but some posts may be longer or shorter.
-I can play male or female characters.  M/F or F/F relationships are fine with me.  Not big on M/M.
-Please let me know if I'm stepping over any lines.  I will be sure to do the same.
-I RP in third person.  If you RP in first person, that's fine, but please don't try forcing your ways onto me.
-Patience is a virtue.  I'd rather not be pestered for a reply after a few hours or something.  Sometimes I'm busy with other things, so please, be patient and I will get to a reply when I am able.
-Plot and Story is a must have in my Rps.  Romance is fine too if there's actual chemistry between the characters, but I'm in it for the action, the adventure, character development, and various other story driven fun times.
-PMs, Discord, and Threads.  I'll write in one of those.
-I will not play with canon characters or play as canon characters.  I prefer playing as OCs and playing with OCs.
-RPs based entirely within the bounds of reality, fanfic RPs, master/slave plots, and extreme bondage are off the table.  To me, real life is boring, and the others are just things I'm not interested in.
-"So what kind of RPs do you like," you wondering.  I have a preference for Fantasy.  Modern fantasy mainly, but I'm fine with other types, as long as things like world shattering villains and epic action can be a thing.  I've never done sci-fi before, so I'm a bit iffy on that.

And now, let's talk about the elephant in the room, and that's sex in RPs.  At the time of writing this, I have yet to finish my Ons and Offs, but there's one thing I'll bring up now.  When it comes to sex in RPs, it's not something I want rushed to or to overtake the entire RP, like pouring poison in a river.  If sex happens, it happens.  If it doesn't, it doesn't.  It's like the story is dinner and the sex is dessert.  You don't eat dessert before dinner.  Anyway, that's just my viewpoint.

Now, for the moment we've all been waiting for, plots.

Established Characters and Plots

So while simple pairings do exist, I already have three RP characters with established backstories and ideas.  Each of them have their own likes and dislikes, so I'll put them all down here.  Even though these are here, I'm open to discussing other ideas.

Crystal

Crystal is a human girl who, when she was young, lived a normal life with her parents and her older sister.  In this world, humans and magical beings lived in harmony.  The gods of this world saw humans as beyond hope and manipulated magical beings to destroy the humans.  This led to incredible disasters and eventually, once Crystal was older, she found the source of the problem and fought against the gods themselves and managed to have the world reset.   Being the one to defy the gods, her mother and older sister, who were killed in the earlier days of the disaster, were not reborn in the new world.  Along with that, she retained all memory of the previous world, including any traumatic moments that could've taken place.

In the new world, while some humans and magical beings are living in peace, problems are still plentiful.  Crystal, as one who defied the order of the gods, has to surrender living a life of peace to fight against the various threats in the world to maintain order.

Personality wise, Crystal tends to be cold and closed off from others.  While it seems like she does this for no real reason, it's because she's had people get close to her only to be killed.  She feels she has to take on the burden of her situation on her own, and refuses to ask for help.  She doesn't like to talk about her family, doing whatever she can to keep emotional walls up and avoid talking about herself or her past.  She does have a soft spot for children, though, as she usually drops her icy nature around them.  At times, she can be incredibly stubborn, like with her inability to swim, but refusal to learn how.  She always has her guard up, especially around those she doesn't trust.  She's a bit nicer to people who have earned her trust, and when it comes to matters of love and romance, she's very inexperienced, only having gone on one date in her entire life.

Her specialty is one handed swords, but has experience with other weapons in case she needs to adapt.  She doesn't really know how to use magic, and through pestering by a companion from the previous world, she's trying to learn how.

Due to a traumatic event that took place in the previous world, Crystal doesn't trust men very much.  She's even more defensive around them than with women.  Sex with men is very unlikely, even if they can get past her emotional walls.

Plot Ideas

All of these ideas take place in a modern fantasy setting.

Revenge of the Big Five - Once upon a time, five incredibly powerful mages roamed the world, learning all types of powerful magic in a bid for world conquest. Their reign of terror was brought to an end in the small town of Glasford, where the five mages were defeated, captured, and locked away thanks to the efforts of powerful warriors able to fight off the group. The five magicians, who called themselves the Big Five, were imprisoned inside a special prison, a tower on a hill known to the people as Tower Penitentiary. Because of the actions of the Big Five and their magic, the people of Glasford began to fear and eventually despite all magic users, leading to a townwide ban on magic. From that point onward, magic users were punished in a way close to murderers and they were left to rot in the mostly unused Tower Penitentiary and the police force of the town was given special permission and tools to use magic themselves to fight off magic users.

Five years after the Big Five were (apparently) executed, sightings of mysterious ghosts that appear to be the remnants of the Big Five. The town had been preparing for their annual festival close to Halloween when the sightings began, so progress on festival preparations have been going slowly. People began to question whether or not the Big Five were actually dead, but with no way to prove if they are or not since they were killed inside Tower Penitentiary, people in town would just have to deal with it.

During a break from her schoolwork and her second life as a monster hunter, Crystal had received a letter from her uncle on her late mother's side (who doesn't know that Crystal's mom and sister are dead) inviting her to stay at his place in Glasford since he has plenty of rooms. Unaware of the situation involving the ghosts, she decided to go there, not knowing that there was more to the entire thing than what was on the surface. Maybe you're in town for the festival and happen to meet Crystal, or you're also renting a room at her uncle's place and end up roped into figuring out the truth behind the Big Five along with Crystal?

"Family Reuinion" - Because her mother and sister were never revived in the new world (as punishment for defying the order of the world), the only remaining member of her family who she knows is still alive is her dad. She hates him, though. In the last world, he abandoned his family in order to save his own skin. This time, he's become a member of a cult that steals souls and uses them to increase their own strength. Left alone, the cult can be an extreme issue. An official mission was sent out for any mercenaries willing to take it. Wanting the reward money, you choose to take it, only to be told that someone else also accepted the job and you'll have to work together and figure out who the head of the operation is.

Forest Encounter - Rumor has it that a band of magicians have been causing chaos in the area near a small town. Maybe you live in the town or are just passing through the area. In the forest, you find signs that a big battle had taken place. Burned trees and the corpses of magicians littered the area. Heading deeper in, you find a girl bathing underneath a waterfall with a weapon close by. Upon closer inspection, you may find her to be familiar. She might be that girl who was in one of your classes in school, but she kept to herself so you never spoke to her. Will you attempt to approach her, even though you know she's probably the one who killed the magicians terrorizing the nearby town?

Invader from Another World - At a luxury hotel, a party for various hired mercenaries, law enforcement, and general heroes fighting against the various threats trying to cause chaos and death was being held.  Crystal was forced to attend because her client told her to go so she could get paid for eliminating a group of demons.  During the party, however, a strange masked man in white with a golden rapier attacks, claiming to be "testing the protectors of the world."  Attempts to even harm the stranger go nowhere, as he can teleport and counterattack with impossible speed.  Two days later, a town is eradicated by a group calling themselves "the Masked Circle," being led by the same strange man.  An official mission has been set up to find and eliminate this man.  For this idea, maybe our characters are made to work together on this job, only to find there's much more to it than just some group of masked weirdos.

Into the New World- Being reborn into the new world, Crystal is forced to repeat her last year of high school due to having no official records.  However, at first, Crystal has no memory of the previous world, allowing her to live as a normal girl, where she can make friends and do normal things.  At night, though, she has strange dreams, which are actually her memories.  A month after the school year starts, Crystal regains all of her lost memories and reverts to the way she originally was before she lost her memories, beginning her mission to preserve order by working as a mercenary.  YC could be one of her friends, who begins to notice she's not the same person anymore, or someone else who has been fighting off crazies and magical beings.

(Despite what I said earlier about not being into slice of life, this is an exception as it begins as a slice of life before the action and stuff comes into play.)

Alice

Alice is the princess of the Tridian Kingdom and the sole heir to the throne. She had never met her mother and her father was too busy to take care of her, but she had heard stories of the things her father has done for the land. While Alice did once respect her father, she learned that he played a major role in sparking a war with a neighboring kingdom under the rule of the dark sorcerer, Melchior. The respect Alice once held for her father was quickly reduced to nothing, and the "hero" she once saw was erased from her mind. As the war slowly began to escalate, Alice's faith in heroes slowly began to wither away until any belief in "heroes" was nothing but a waste of time in her mind, but she knew that she was too weak to make any changes herself. During a trip into town on her own while in disguise, she was attacked and nearly killed by a group of thugs, only to be rescued by a man who called himself an assassin. His actions showed Alice her real lack of actual strength to protect herself if the situation came to it, seeing as a war was brewing, and she requested to be taken on as an apprentice to the assassin.

So yes, she's a princess who lives a double life as an assassin.  She uses twin daggers and can use wind magic thanks to both training by her teacher and required learning as heir to the throne.  As a princess, she acts kindly to people, but keeps any ulterior motives hidden.  She has a deep dislike for heroes and people claiming to be heroes, thinking of them as mere hypocrites and liars, just like her father.  She's completely unconvinced that there are actual heroes in the world.  She doesn't show her emotions as much during her assassin work, and will use any advantage she can get in an encounter.

Alice is straight, so M/F pairings only, please.

Plot Ideas

The following ideas are Medieval Fantasy.

Legend of the Hero - There is a story of a hero from another world who will stop the resurrection of the infamous Dark Dragon, who aims to destroy the entire world. Of course, this is just a story that parents tell their kids to inspire them to reach for their dreams...well, at least that was what they thought. When the king of the neighboring Catamor Empire is killed by poison and his personal mage knight Melchior takes the throne instead of the king's son, the man sold his soul to the Dark Dragon for extreme magical power and began to take steps towards the dragon's revival. By driving Alice's dad to sparking war and using his new power to summon monsters from the void, Melchior put everything in motion. One of the steps of his plan was to summon the hero of legend from their world of origin and have them eliminated before they could interfere in his plans, but he's unaware that someone else had been hired to eliminate the hired hands the mage had ordered to kill this "hero" after they're summoned.

The Curse of Genesis - Melchior, the usurper king of the Catamor Empire, sold his soul to the Dark Dragon for power. With this, he has gained magical abilities beyond the reach of most men. Using this power, he fills his soldiers with a cursed magic, known simply as Genesis. While it can greatly increase their abilities and even allow those who aren't magically adept to use dark magic, it corrupts the body and soul, destroying the original person and making them a monster of their former selves. Slowly, the Genesis soldiers are spreading, causing absolute havoc throughout the land, and due to their sheer might, few have been able to effectively stop their wrath.

Zero Storm

Zero Storm is one who defied his fate. He was born and raised for combat, only to serve as a vessel for the spirit of the Great Demon, Chaos. However, he defied the path set out for him and aided the Great Sages in destroying the Great Demon for good. Instead of taking his place as a hero or going and living a normal life like he always wanted, he vanished after the final battle. He began a solitary mission to help reawaken his childhood friend who had become the vessel for the Great Demon's spirit, and as a result, put her own soul in a limbo-like state, leaving her in a deep sleep.

Bound to his soul is a replica of the Sword of Miracles, a weapon able to alter it's shape to it's owner's preference (which, to Zero, is a one handed sword).  It lacks the same miracle bringing powers of the original, but can still purify diseases and sicknesses, along with poisoning.  Zero can manipulate his energy to create spheres of energy he can fire at enemies, along with focus that power into his weapon or his own body to make himself stronger.  Focusing energy onto his body is risky, as prolonged use can have side effects.  As a potential vessel to the Great Demon, Zero was filled with dark powers.  When activating the dark power, Zero's abilities are generally enhanced to levels beyond human and increases his tolerance to pain to almost nonexistant levels. On the other hand, Zero can only maintain control of himself for a limited time before the dark power attempts to corrupt his mind, making him act mostly without thinking of plans or workarounds to his enemies. Since he's human, even if he can't feel the pain of his injuries, they're still very much there, and by charging in mindlessly, he puts himself at major risk of being killed. He tries to avoid using the dark power at all, if possible.

Plot Ideas

Saving a Friend - With the Great Demon destroyed, Zero thought he could finally get the chance to catch up with the childhood friend he managed to remember after recovering his lost memories. However, fate decided to step in the way of their reunion. With her soul in a sleep-like state, likely to fight being erased completely, Zero's friend is sleeping and hasn't shown any signs of awakening. Leaving her in a stasis tank left in the lab of a certain scientist who had a role in starting all of this trouble, he's now searching for a way to save her. Of course, the world isn't entirely peaceful and still has it's share of issues and mysteries. Who will he cross paths with and what will come of these encounters?

Simpler pairings and ideas will be added at a later date.
