Leons Bargain Bin of RP Ideas (M LF Many, New and Improved Overhaul)

[Leon Weber]

Some Easy Listening For Both Returning and New Visitors

Heya everyone! For those who haven’t come across any of my little corners of E yet I’m Leon and recently for a variety of reasons I’ve decided to spruce up my primary request page in an attempt to centralize a lot of my ideas. Occasionally I’ll still post individual threads for new and very specific ideas but for the time I am attempting to combine all of my existing threads that I’m still interested in here on this thread rather than continuously bumping old and disparate threads.

As a side note I have completely overhauled my O/O’s  as my tastes and the things I am willing to explore have greatly changed since I came to E so if you’re someone who considered contacting me before but decided not to because of a difference in our tastes please go look at the updated O/O thread as a lot has changed with me over the past year and a half or so.

I will be dividing this thread up by Genre and listing specific prompts underneath and then after the specific prompts have been listed I will also list some general pairings that I am interested in. Also each genre of RPs will be put into a drop down menu for your ease otherwise this page would be like a mile long.

As an additional note, I am willing to play both male and female characters and I am not overly concerned with the IRL gender of my writing partner. Please reference my O/O page where I discuss what gender/types of characters I like to play alongside other characters.

As Usual Please Do Not Post In This Thread, Send Me A PM If You Are Interested!

Gunpowder Fantasy Desires

Gunpowder Fantasy Desires

Here I will detail all of my ideas and prompts for Fantasy stories that take place in a more advanced society than those typical of Medieval fantasy. Where firearms and cannons exist, where pike and shot rules the battlefield. This can be anywhere from a late 1500s society to a 1800s or even 1900s society exists but still with hallmarks of fantasy, magic, elves, orcs, and other fantasy races and all of that are still on the table. This can, but does not have to, include elements of steampunk/dieselpunk

Grand Adventures, With Cannons

This follows along with most of the other Grand Adventure style prompts. It is not so much a description of a particular story, subgenre, or style, but rather a very generalized idea where the sky is the limit. The main factor for these prompts is the scope of the story. Where many stories focus on specific characters, or even specific places, the Grand Adventure is just as much about the world as it is about anything else.

We might have one set of main characters, or perhaps we’ll have several concurring sets of main characters that we switch in between. But the story itself will, eventually, encompass grand plots. The consequences of actions taken in the story won’t just affect our characters or those in their immediate vicinity, but the entirety of the world we create. It can involve adventuring parties in grand adventures of dragon slaying and deity-defying. Or it can be a story of nations clashing, mighty armies marching upon each other and potentially wiping one another out.

Our characters can be humble adventurers, or Kings and Princesses who move and shake the world with the flick of their wrists and the movements of their lips. Of course there will be sex, romance, kinks, ups, downs, and all arounds. Whats important for these plots is that eventually they will have a far reaching effect. It doesn’t have to start that way, we can focus on Frodo and the Shire before setting up the War of the Ring. But eventually the world will shake at the actions that take place during the story.

A Thief and a Scoundrel

This is more or less supposed to represent the polar opposite of the previous prompt, An Officer and a Gentleman. This character will be known as many things, and none of them nice. That doesn’t necessarily mean he is a bad man, but most likely a man driven to extremes due to hard times. Plagues, famines, and wars wrecking the land making men like him desperate to do what is needed to be done in order to survive. Or perhaps he is a bastard, but a useful bastard which is why no one does anything about his dastardly deeds. An officer in the army who only sees the position as a means to indulge his murderous and violent tendencies with the backing of the state, or perhaps he is merely ruthless as a matter of pragmatism. He does whats needed to be done to win, morals be damned.

Of course I do not intend to play him as some sort of murderhobo with no depth, I intend to find layers in this character and perhaps your character will find layers in him too. Perhaps YC is his wife at home, who knows that while her husband does horrible things he does it to ensure his family is cared for, that the enemies of the Nation never step foot on their land and do to them what he does to their people. Or maybe a proper noblewoman who finds something oddly desirable about this brigand who doesn’t seem to care about the rules, perhaps shes excited by his disregard for others, perhaps she finds it fascinating that he seems to have some moralistic view of the world underneath the rough and tumble?

There are a lot of possibilities to explore with this one as well. Not every nobleman is good natured, and not every peasant is a simple lout who only sees whats directly in front of them. Like everyone else, they are people, even when they have demons, even when their better nature is concealed by violence and villainy. They laugh, they love, they care about people, some of them at least, and others they care less about.

A Disgraced Hero

This particular prompt is sort of a middle ground between the previous two. Somewhere between scoundrel and hero. Perhaps he’s a Noble Officer, or perhaps he’s merely a foot soldier. But at some point he earned himself accolades and awards, was considered to be a paragon among men. But then, somewhere along the way he earned himself the ire of the very same people who once sang his praises and he fell into disgrace. The man himself could have many different feelings about this, perhaps he is indifferent towards it only doing what he believed is necessary, perhaps he is deeply wounded by the event both because of the loss to his reputation or perhaps more because the event itself was a traumatic one. The important part of this character is that once he was flying high, and perhaps got too close to the sun, before plummeting down.

Maybe he was a bit of a scoundrel all along, and truly those who praised him for his deeds merely misunderstood that what he did he did out of pure expediency. Or perhaps he is truly noble and gallant, but he was forced to make a hard decision that cost him his reputation but he did it because it was truly the right thing to do. Or perhaps the event was more troubling than that, an event that a hero cannot easily compromise with his core beliefs but it was required of him anyways to save the lives of others. There is a lot more grey area in this character which is a personal favorite of mine.

Whomever your character is, is of course another question entirely. Perhaps she is someone who sees right through him to his true nature, whether that is an honorable nature or not, and wishes to get closer to him out of mutual attraction or perhaps merely to get to the bottom of his situation. Perhaps it is someone who feels bad for the man who climbed so high only to be cast down into the bottom of the lot with the rest of them. Or perhaps she is simply a woman he pays to listen to him reminisce about his glory days and then sleep with him, and perhaps this turns into something more over time. Once again I am always willing to discuss different characters and ideas with people.

Of Conquerors and Despoilers

Of course it would be impossible even in fantasy to discuss these sorts of societies without exploring into the colonialism of the IRL counterpart. This doesn’t mean we have to get into all the messy details of European Colonialism such as slavery, racism, and so on (though I am more than willing to explore these themes). But a lot of what drove society at the time was outward expansion in other parts of the world and the establishment of dominant naval cultures, the advent of capitalistic production and all the pros and cons of that as well as the sheer pillaging of wealth from other nations and lands.

This prompt will focus on my character being the leader of some sort of exploratory, colonial, or even military expedition to a land previously unknown to my characters people. This does not mean it has to play out the same as perhaps the colonization of that age did, that those they are trying to colonize are at a disadvantage, in fact it might be more fun if it was a spirited back and forth between the powers at play here. But I think the focus should definitely be that my characters culture, people, and beliefs, are different from the cultures and beliefs of the land they are invading.

This obviously lends itself to inter-species romances such as Human-Elf, Human-Orc, Dwarf-Elf etc. My character will likely be human, known for their exploratory nature as well as their willingness to use violent force. This will likely bring him into direct conflict with your character who should be among the locals and practicing their different beliefs and culture. It will be an unlikely romance, and perhaps it can lead to one of our character shifting their perspective on the venture, whether my character comes to regret his role in the conquest of another people and the despoiling of their ancestral home, or the other character becoming enamored with the technologies, ideas, and beliefs of My characters home we can go either way with that.

There will be conflict, but also sharing, there will be blood, but also love. A story that could truly explore the highs and lows of such a situation from many different angles.
Revolutions and Civil Wars

Of course another hallmark of these sorts of fantasy stories are civil strife, a common occurrence in the era of history it seeks to emulate. Who either of our characters are in this scenario is up for discussion on both ends. But the key of the plot thread is the backdrop of civil war and upheaval. The world as our characters know it is being upset, the balance of power changing, and this of course has an effect on everyone. From King to Peasant, this new paradigm is changing everyones lives, some for the better, others for worse, and others ending their lives altogether. Whether it’s a popular revolution by the people against a stagnating power that has grown complacent and detached from its people, or a situation where Crown Loyalists and Reformers face each other down violently in the streets and on the fields of battle.

Our characters could be anyone. A foreigner unlucky enough to be caught in the middle of it all and unable to leave for one reason or another, while their foil is a character who wants to help them, or even seeks out their help instead. Lovers whos family ended up on opposite sides of the conflict, and perhaps the lovers have their own opinions about the war, or perhaps they simply want to be together in spite of it, to ignore the world crashing around their ears to simply be together, but somehow they are forcibly drawn into the violence for one reason or another.

A princess and a pauper? A Romeo and a Juliet? A Robespierre and a Marie Antoinette? There are a lot of possible pairings and I am more than willing to explore them all and the possible implications it might have on the societal upheaval around them. Of course we can also add fantasy twists, different species, magics, and other such things all woven into it.

Fantasy Desires

Fantasy Desires
Here I will go over all of my ideas and prompts for Fantasy Adventure scenarios mostly pertaining to Medieval Fantasy. Some of them can be subverted for other plot lines as well but in general they seem to fit best in a Medieval Fantasy setting.
The Grand Adventure

This is a generalized plot thread that focuses on all of the big Fantasy Story ideas that we know and love. That doesn’t mean that we can’t get specific with it of course, after all that would be the main idea behind it. In essence this is a plot that will require a great deal of brainstorming between the two of us and I would absolutely love to find someone interested in doing exactly that. Brainstorming a grand overarching fantasy story in which our characters will be the heroes (or villains maybe?). We can use a generic fantasy world for it and put not all that much thought into the world building or we can go full throttle and design a world around it, both ideas I am amenable too but mostly the latter of that as I love world building with a passion. Hell, if you want, you can leave most of the world building details to me and focus all your effort on your character and the story, but world building collaboration is always fun in my books.

As I mentioned this will involve all of the big fantasy tropes we love. The world will be faced with an existential threat, perhaps the sort of threat that might destroy the very fabric of reality as we know it, perhaps simply a massive change in the status quo of the world. Either way it is the sort of threat that will leave the world far different than it was when we started if the threat isn’t addressed. The Forces of Good must unite against the Forces Evil, or perhaps even the Forces of Evil must combine their strength with the noble and righteous to snuff out a threat. Armies gathering and fighting for their very survival, Dragons coming out of their caves to join the fray, perhaps even the Gods will join in on the fun in a direct way.

However I don’t want to start the story right away with existential threats and grand armies. Who are our characters? Why are they in the center of it all? How did they get there? Were they chosen? Or did they rise to the occasion of their own volition? These are all very important questions and I would rather answer them IC rather than adopt an in media res approach. The nature of our characters relationships is also of course completely up for discussion. Friends? Lovers? Enemies? Who they are at the start and what they become is something I am completely willing to work out on a case-by-case basis. Lets make a grand old tale!
The Down On Their Luck Couple

This plot thread was originally one I came up with for an Elder Scrolls Fandom specific plot, but it really fits in with any fantasy setting (or even a Sci-Fi one) and is one that I am really interested in playing out with someone. In this prompt our characters would already start out in a relationship, a marriage, and they would be down on their luck for one reason or another. Perhaps a famine or crop plague caused a bad crop and they’re at the end of their rope with no way to pay their yearly taxes or other debts they may have. Perhaps a war raged on for some time and led to their farm being burned to the ground and has left them with nothing, the point is they no longer have the ability to make ends meet. In order to try and turn their luck around they take every remaining penny they have and invest it in adventuring gear and take to the world. Offering their services as adventurers, problem solvers, sell swords, perhaps even thugs or enforcers for criminals, whatever it takes to put coins in their purse and do what needs to be done.

Beyond the obvious drama and action that can occur in their time as adventurers the nature and evolution of the relationship between the couple in question is also something worth considering. Was the spark of their marriage and love for one another dying out, and perhaps this new adventure brings the spark back? Or perhaps their marriage was doing well but the stress of their new life as adventurers starts driving a wedge between them? Causing them to fight and bicker more often? Either way portraying there as being trouble in paradise can add some interesting spice to the story.

Another way to make the story more interesting is perhaps to add another dynamic to their relationship, perhaps one that makes it difficult to get on in regular society. Perhaps they are an interracial couple (Human x Elf, Human x Orc etc) and perhaps such pairings are usually frowned upon by wider society making it harder for them to find work through regular channels and having to resort to seedy channels as well. Perhaps they have a run of bad luck while adventuring and the wife decides to turn to prostitution, with or without her husband’s knowledge. There are a lot of things we can do here to add lots of interesting sub plots to the story.
General Fantasy Pairings

Knight x Rogue: Always a fun dynamic to explore, especially if the rogue is prone to criminality.

Human Noble x Elven Noble: Trying to soothe Racial Tensions in an arranged marriage, or perhaps defying their families wishes because they love each other.

Noble x Commoner: Class divides, ever a thorn in the side

Knight/Noble x Prostitute: Never easy for a good and righteous man to be in love with a working girl, but the heart wants what it wants.

Enemy x Enemy: Love and Lust can sometimes come up from the strangest places.

Vampire x Righteous Woman: The dark things are sometimes the most beautiful aren’t they? But is it wise?

Sci-Fi Plots

Sci-Fi Plots
This section is for Science Fiction plot threads, everything from near-future dystopias to far-future galactic shenanigans.
Man and Machine

This plot is based heavily off of the setting of Quantic Dreams rather well known game Detroit become human, but it does not have to be set in that setting with that exact backdrop. As usual I do enjoy worldbuilding and building a custom world with my partner but its not always 100% necessary and the setting of DBH has just enough information to give a running start but enough vagueness that we could just as well design our own events, occurrences and history to fill the holes as we see fit and if we so choose.

This setting will revolve around the idea of an obviously repressed android underclass, treated as property, with the rest of humanity sitting atop and having varying feelings about them. For all intents and purposes these things are merely meant to be a back drop to the story of our characters and we can involve the themes of oppression, abuse, and hardship as much or as little as we like. My character in this will be a human, likely a member of Law Enforcement or military and as such has a very mixed outlook on Android technology and of course has a great many conflicting thoughts about the ethics and morals of such advanced technology, how its utilized, and the greater philosophical questions of their existence. Obviously in a position like Law Enforcement or Military the idea of technology being able to do a lot of the heavy lifting while humans remain primarily in the drivers seat is very appealing, and there are a lot of potential plot ideas that we could explore in that vein alone. From a cop being given an android as a partner to better assist them in combing through investigative files, cataloguing and linking evidence, to absorbing harm that would otherwise befall their human counterpart, to a 'deviant' (to borrow DBH terminology) that is placed under arrest causing an existential moral crisis on the part of my character, to androids being employed in the military in a combat role and how that evolves a relationship between a man and what is ostensibly a machine just as, if not more, intelligent and capable as he is.

Obviously this kind of story can wonder into romantic and sexual territory, but also explore deeper themes of humanity, agency, independence, and so on. As I said, this is heavily inspired by Detroit Become Human and while I am keen to maybe write a story in that canon universe with non-canon characters, that is not a requirement of any sort.
The Intrepid Vessel

This plot-thread revolves more around the idea of the ship being the 'main character' as it were. That is not to mean that we won't be able to have set characters or repeating characters, but the idea is primarily for the ship and its entire crew be the focus of the story. For this I would like a partner willing to create and play multiple characters, I do not have set archetypes or character ideas for any of them but obviously we should between the two of us design several characters that fill out the functions required for a space faring vessel: A captain, a gunner, a mechanic, a medic and so on. We could rotate perspectives for different scenes, threads, kinks and so on.

I find this sort of story format to be particularly interesting because one, it allows us to stretch our wings as writers, creating and writing multiple different nuanced and deep characters that each have their own personalities, motivations, ideals, hopes, dreams, fears, and of course kinks and romantic desires. I am not intending for this story to be some sort of inter-stellar polycule story, but I also am not entirely opposed to that idea either. This story has a lot of potential for basically all of the big hallmarks of a good story and a good RP. Action, drama, romance, sex, ups, downs, and all arounds.

Overall I think a story like this has great potential to be an interesting format that I haven't gotten to explore very often, the idea of the main character being a place, or a ship in this case, with many permanent characters but also a lot of easy opportunity for temporary new characters for us to try out and see if we like to keep or discard as needed and to explore lots of interesting themes especially around a group of people living in tight quarters and enduring high stress situations together.
The Grand Adventure- IN SPACE

So much like the Grand Adventure fantasy plot thread that I have this is a very involved story that will involve worldbuilding, large scale plots that involve nations and empires, politics and warfare, drama and action! Lots of big stuff like that! I love doing plots like these where we play more than one character at various levels of the socio-political totem pole each with their own worries, concerns, issues, as well as hopes and dreams that all play into the larger scheme of things!

This plot can involve a lot of moving parts, good and bad actors, characters making moves, but also a look at the mundane life in a universe we created from the ground up or possibly at least borrow some inspiration from existing settings like Mass Effect, Star Wars, Cyberpunk and others as well. This will be a story-heavy RP but that does not mean that it can't have plenty of romance, sex, and fun kinky stuff.

What will our universe be embroiled in? Intrigues of various human factions? Intergalactic warfare between humans and aliens? Stories of cooperation? Of Conflict? Of Love? Of Hatred? Of Oppression? Of Liberation?

The stars are the limit on this one and I am always looking for big plots with partners who love involved stories!

Historical Wonders

Historical Wonders
This section is dedicated to roleplays that take place during history, whether as part of real events or merely a historical time period. My range of interest in historical RP’s goes from the times of Ancient Rome and China all the way to the 1800s and Early 1900s. My strongest area of knowledge is from 300 BC to 1300 AD or thereabouts and mostly in Europe and the Middle East, but I am never against the idea of doing additional research and learning about new cultures and areas!
Alexanders Lost Son

The rise and fall of Alexanders Empire was meteoric in nature and took a massive region of the world by storm. As many know, one of the main reasons for the fracturing of the Empire and the dividing of the territory by his generals was due to the lack of an heir. But what if perhaps this wasn’t true, and there was a young boy, known only to a few, who carried the blood line of one of Histories greatest Conquerors? That is what this prompt will be about. I will be playing the role of Alexanders lost and illegitimate son, who was raised in secret by a few trusted attendants before they were discovered and killed by Alexanders Generals who grew comfortable in their new seats of power with their own sprawling Kingdoms.

Who your character is, is completely up for discussion. Perhaps a woman who takes him in without knowing who he is, unwittingly hiding him as a fugitive and they fall in love only for her to find out his secret later on, as well as his ambition. Of course, eventually he would desire to rise up and lead men to glory as his father did, to retake the Empire his father had created from the hands of the Generals who divided it up between themselves.

Perhaps your character might even be the daughter of one of these generals who falls in love with her family’s greatest enemy without even realizing it and they carry on an illicit affair until he reveals his identity.

In general, there is a great deal we can do with this plot, but it will take a bit more planning and execution than some others.
Norse Hijinks

This plot is a bit more generalized as it can take place over the span of a few hundred years and in several locations but I felt that it was important to add this to the plot list due to the fact that Norse History, Religion, and Culture pre-christianization is a massive area of interest for me both from a hobby standpoint and an academic standpoint.

The Viking Age lasted from 793 to (arguably) 1066 with the Norman Invasion of England just after Harald Hardrade’s failed conquest of England a few years earlier and it wasn’t as if the British Isles were the only place that the Norse were active, they were active all over Europe, the Middle East, the Mediterranean and of course Iceland, Greenland, and the failed Vinland colonization, though it deserves to be said that the Greenland colonists still made semi-regular logging expeditions to Vinland insofar as we can tell.

This gives us a lot to work with settings wise. Do we want to stick with the traditional stories about the Norse in the British Isles, the formation of the Danelaw, and possibly how the resulting culture clash in that region might effect two characters living in that area?  Or perhaps we want to look at the Norse in Eastern Europe, the formation of the Kievan Rus and their relationship with the Eastern Roman Empire?

We could even branch out and look at Vinland, perhaps a renewed attempt to colonize the America’s and perhaps even establish friendly relations with the local indigenous peoples? Or perhaps it will boil over into an unavoidable conflict?

As I stated there is a lot we can do here and a lot that can be explored and I am game to explore all of it.
Roman Splendor

The history of Roman Civilization is long, storied, and of course very foundational to the societies of Western Europe that we have come to know today. From the Republican Era of Rome before they became an Empire (though even Republican Rome possessed an Empire, they just were not an Empire in a governmental sense). To the last vestiges of the might empire finally falling in 1453 to the cannons of the Ottoman Empires who in their own right still tried to carry on the legacy and torch of the Empire they replaced.

While we can throw a dart at a massive chunk of the historical record and choose a period of Roman History to start from I would prefer to focus on Roman History from around 100AD to 1000AD. We can explore the christianization of Rome from the perspectives of many different characters, to the steadfast men and women of the Byzantine Roman Empire who continued the legacy and traditions of Rome up into the beginning of the Renaissance period.

As usual I don’t play historical realism as a hard rule, we are welcome to change things up a bit here and there to make our story work, I’d rather write an enjoyable story than one that pertains to historical realism 100% but I would like to keep things as believable as possible. This story can take place from the perspectives of everyone from historical heavyweights, to just the normal people surviving in the tumultuous periods of the Empire as it changed and adapted to the world around it in order to face new threats, overcome new obstacles, and become victorious in new challenges.

Modern Plot Threads

Modern Plot Threads
These are threads taking place in the modern day with a little bit of give in each direction. Say 20 years in the past to 20 years in the future. Doesn’t require much in the way of worldbuilding but doesn’t mean it can’t be interesting.
Reverse Isekai Exploration

The Isekai genre is a genre of anime that specifically deals with the idea of someone from our current world being taken away by magic, reincarnation, or some other force into another world usually of a fantasy variety but not necessarily always, sci-fi can be used here as well. In general, it involves someone from our world having to adapt and understand a world completely foreign to them, with unknown cultural practices, religious beliefs, economics, and societal norms. This can be humorous or serious depending on the anime in question, but I am not here just to explore the anime tropes but mostly the concept of the story in a more serious light.

In this plot thread however I want to flip this concept on its head. Rather than someone from our world being taken and sent into a fantasy world, the reverse. Someone from a medieval fantasy world or perhaps a sci-fi futuristic universe and being dropped in our current world and having to navigate it and all of its hectic weirdness and strange vagaries. In this case I don’t mind playing either role, as the newcomer to our world or as the person who ends up trying to help this strange new being who was somehow dropped into our world.

This can go in a lot of interesting directions, from just having to teach the person how to speak a human language, how to operate in human society, and how to hide themselves because the implications of the powers that be figuring out that some elf, orc, alien or what have you is now on earth would be rather troublesome especially if said interloper doesn’t want to be involved in the grand games of men.

Perhaps this newcomer to our universe is rather taken with humanity and wants to stick around, perhaps they are disgusted and want to do everything in their power to get home but ends up falling in love with the young man or woman who has opted to take care of them and to help them figure out what its like to live on earth. Perhaps they decide to stay, or perhaps they try to beg their caretaker to come with them to their home instead. A lot that can be done here and very interested in exploring this with someone!
A Modern Monarchy

Of course, some monarchies still exist in the Modern Era but for the most part they are merely figureheads without much in the way of real power or executive authority, at least not in the West. But what if this was different and some turn of events caused a Royal Family to maintain their power and privilege over a modern Royal House? What implications could this have for the nation in question, or for the world in general?

This plot can be used in our regular modern world or in a modernized version of a fantasy world, I am down for but it’s definitely a theme I’ve been looking to explore for a long time. What would a royal family be like in the modern digital age? They got up to all sorts of shenanigans in a historical context and they still do, but what would it be like if they were still the grand personalities wielding vast amounts of power that they used to?

There are lots of angles we can take with this story, arranged marriages, rebellious Princes and Princesses trying to flout the power and authority of their parents. Perhaps a royal falling in love with a commoner and ending up in an affair, and trying to force changes to the laws to allow them to marry using modern ideas of love and romance to try and garner public support?

This idea is still somewhat vague in my head and something that definitely requires the right partner but if it’s something that interests you please send me a message and lets see if we can’t work something out!
The Young Couple

This is definitely the most slice-of-life style plot desire that I have, and its definitely still something I am interested in. Just because its slice of life doesn’t mean it has to be boring, dull, or have no spice and drama to it. As we all know the relationships we tend to get in when we’re younger aren’t always perfect, they don’t always work out, and are often some of both our best and worst memories. This story prompt would follow the story of one such couple.

I see them as college-aged and possibly even in college, at that age where exploration is common and where one is constantly learning new things about themselves. This would follow this couple in their explorations of sex, love, dating, and all of the things that underpin those very realities of our lives. They won’t be a perfect story book couple with a traditional happily ever after, but perhaps they make it and do end up staying together for a long time, even unto marriage and parenthood and beyond. Or perhaps their relationship will crash and burn, ending in tearful goodbyes and merely keeping each other in their memories.

This story is probably the one that will have the most focus on kinks, fetishes, and general smut. But there will also be emotions, drama, as well as good times. Parties, drunken mistakes, or perhaps drunken luck depending on who you ask. I feel that this sort of story can be a lot more interesting than a lot of people give it credit for and we can definitely bring some justice to what on the surface seems like a mundane story about nothing in particular, but explore the facets of human relationships especially the sort that are young and often driven by hormones.

Alternative History Prompts

Alternative History Prompts
These are prompts of alternative histories, either taking part in the events of those alternative histories or exploring the idea of how such a massive change in history could effect our modern day and playing out a scenario in that context.
A Cold War

This idea is predicated on the idea that the Cold War never ended. That the USSR never collapsed in the early nineties and that in some form or fashion the Iron Curtain is still more or less in the same place it was before. However, as time went on and tensions eased between East and West the Iron Curtain eased off a little bit. The world was still divided, but things were a little bit more amicable between the worlds two superstar factions. Trade started to flow across the curtain, and though Germany was divided no longer were the boundaries so intense and once again Germans were allowed to cross from East-West Germany relatively unhindered. Due to a large-scale political event West Berlin was granted to the DDR to be made whole again, but the other side of the deal was the deconstruction of the Berlin Wall and the softening of restrictions on Germans traveling between the two halves of the country.

The main character I am looking to play in this setting is Albrecht Miller, a member of the Diensteinheit IX a special unit of German police in the employ of the Ministry of State Security that deals primarily with counter terrorism and security for VIPs and major events in the country. Who your character is, is entirely up for debate. But overall, I’m willing to go just about anywhere with this RP prompt.

The classic cold war tropes of spy vs spy, defusing potentially volatile situations, and high paced action stories are all on the table for this but so are more mundane ones just dealing with normal people living normal lives but still with the societal connotations of what this alternative history would entail looming in the background.

Again this is a very open prompt and we can go really anywhere with it so if you wish please feel free to contact me about it, I have been looking for a partner for this prompt for a very long time.
A North Sea Empire

In the early medieval period for a brief time the Kingdoms of England, Norway, and Denmark were ruled by one man known as Cnut the Great who was a Christian Dane who earned each crown through various means. If England on its own was enough to become a force to be reckoned with on the world stage, how would it look if perhaps such a mighty Empire had stayed together, how different would history be? From the Middle Ages to the modern era such an entity existing for a meaningful amount of time would have far reaching consequences.

There’s a lot that can be done with this sort of idea, from exploring the more immediate consequences of a power like that being solidified, to the colonial period, to the modern age, what would change? What would stay the same? The answers are limitless really and I am definitely looking to explore possibilities with a willing partner.

There are even further alterations that could be made, what instead of Cnut being Christian he remained Pagan like his forefathers and Paganism became the dominant religion in Northern Europe, or what if America was instead a Norse Colony started many years before the rest of the colonial period and given much further time to develop, what if the Norse rulers maintained much friendlier relations with the Indigenous peoples? There are a lot of what if’s here and we are free to explore them all.

This is probably the most open prompt I have and I am willing to explore any day and age with this premise.

Plots That Transcend Genre

Plots That Transcend Genre
These are plots that can easily fit into any genre from Fiction to modern and sci-fi as well.
The Love Triangle (Or Square, or Hexagon)

This is a polyamory-oriented plot and one that I REALLY want to find a good partner for! This plot will be about a love triangle, or a love however many people we want to be involved in the relationship. The idea is that it will be a love triangle at first, where one person loves another and so on, the usual sort of trope. But in the end they will opt instead of competing for one another, for all of them to be together in a polyamorous relationship. Whether its equal amounts men and women, or more men than women or more women than men, all of it is good with me!

This plot can fit into almost every other plot I’ve listed above and even more than that! Fantasy, modern, sci-fi this idea can fit anywhere as a main plotline or just as a sub plot to another grander plot that we have hashed out together! If you’d be interested in including this, I would be super thrilled and it would warm my little poly heart!

Extra points if polyamory is considered taboo or frowned upon in the setting that we decide to set it in! The thruple+ would try to hide it at first, carrying on their hidden relationship dynamic until its discovered or they decide to be brave and just love each other openly without a care for what anyone else thinks and deal with whatever consequences come their way for it.
Adventures in Grimdark

Grimdark isn’t so much a genre as it is a story thematic. It comes in many shapes and sizes from fantasy, to modern, to futuristic settings. Grimdark is essentially the practice of specifically making a setting violent, amoral, or just particularly gruesome as a general theme and on a daily basis. Most of the prompts here I’ve posted are not inherently dark on their own but we can make them dark if we want to and I am okay with that, I have been getting into the world of darker RP’s lately and am more than okay to continue exploring this with other people!

Whether it’s a war riddled with wars, plagues, famines, slavery and other horrors these are all themes that I am willing to explore and to add to any of the prompts that I have mentioned above, just make sure to ask if we can make things a little bit darker.
Sex Workers and Love

This is a story format that I actually find to be incredibly appealing in almost any setting, I am not sure why, but I just think that it’s a neat concept to explore. Sex Work in all of its forms has existed throughout most of human history, and in most places throughout most of human history it has also been legal, if looked down upon. However this has not always been the case depending on when and where in history you look, sometimes sex workers were even considered honorable and doing the work of the gods, sometimes they have been considered second class citizens.

Regardless of time period, or setting, I enjoy the idea of exploring relationships between a man (or woman) and a working girl. Is he an upstanding member of society who would be in considerable trouble if he were to be caught with such a woman? Or perhaps just a normal man, an everyday joe, who falls in love with his favorite girl at the local brothel?

And what about the woman? Is she a prostitute by choice? A classy escort? A girl forced into working in a brothel because of debt or other bad situations she can’t dig herself out of? Chose to turn to sex work because of the harsh economic realities of modern capitalism? The possibilities here are many and I am keen to explore any and all of them!

While yes these stories can involve a lot of smut scenes and can range from light to extreme in the kinks explored this is by no means a smut-only prompt. I am very keen to explore character development, drama, overcoming obstacles, the pain and the pleasure that such a relationship could have.

And whether or not the working girl in question feels the same way about the client that I will be playing is completely up for discussion. Perhaps hes just a sweet man in love with a woman who only sees him as a source of income, or maybe that’s how she starts out viewing him but eventually falls in love with him as well? Perhaps there are reasons she can’t just stop being a working girl and marry a man who treats her well?

There are many ideas we can explore here and as I’ve said, I am keen to explore them so if this catches your eye please feel free to reach out to me, and given the nebulous nature of this prompt we can set this in any setting. Modern, historical, fantasy, steampunk, or even sci-fi.

Thats All Folks!
Welp that’s all I have for now, I will continue to update this thread with more ideas and continue to spruce it up as I learn more about E’s fancy coding stuff and the like!

For those of you who read some or all of this thank you very much for your time and I hope that you found something you’re interested in and wish to reach out to me to start a roleplay!

I’m down for everything from fluffy stories of romance and love (with some spice) to Grimdark stories of abject horror and darker themes so please whatever your tastes I am sure we can work something out! I think of myself as a competent roleplayer who has only improved on his skills since coming here to E and I would love to start even more new stories with other wonderful roleplayers.

As I mentioned before for both new and returning visitors please visit my O/O’s which have linked in my bio which have also recently undergone a huge overhaul.

[Leon Weber]

this deserves a bump

[Leon Weber]

This is pretty overdue for a bump, edited it some and cleaned it up a bit more.

[Leon Weber]

this deserves a bump its been quite some time

added a link to my new request thread and added one new prompt.

Actively seeking partners, I'm in a fairly good spot to be active here regularly. Don't forget to check my O/O's threads and by all means if you're looking for a partner but don't see anything here you like please feel free to pitch me your own ideas.

[Leon Weber]

I have completely and totally overhauled the page, adding new stories and taking old stories off honestly I did too much to list here but I do believe this more than constitutes the Substantive Update clause for the bumping policy!

[Leon Weber]

Removed plots currently in action and made some other edits and this deserves a bump as I am in the market for a new story.

[Leon Weber]

Re-added the Sci-Fi Plots section with a bit more variety than it had before! Be sure to check out some of those plots if you're into Sci-fi Plots and such I am having a big sci-fi craving right now!

Current Major Cravings:
Sci-fi Cravings:
-The Grand Adventure- IN SPACE
-Man and Machine
-The Bounty Hunter
-The Intrepid Vessel

Modern Cravings:
-A Cold War

[Leon Weber]

due for a bump, really looking for historical and modern plots, but of course all plots are welcome.

[Leon Weber]

Okay! I have removed a plot and added several new plots which meets the substantive update according to the bumping policy. Removed and added plots are as follows.

Removed:

Historical Wonders: To Right A Wrong

Added:

Historical Wonders:
Norse Hijinks: Adventures in Norse History
Roman Splendor: Fast Times in the Roman Empire

Alternative History Prompts:
Roman Splendor 2 Electric Boogaloo: What if Rome lived?

Plots that Transcend Genre: Sex Workers and Love

[Leon Weber]

I have added a whole new section with several plots, I will list them here. This meets the substantive bump policy.

Current Cravings and Desires: Currently I am mostly looking almost exclusively for Gunpowder Fantasy prompts, though I am always welcome to people interested in the other ones this is where most of my energy and my muse is right now and would like to find other partners willing to explore these prompts. In fact even if none of my prompts speak to you, if you have any desire for anything involving both fantasy and gunpowder era societies and weapons I am willing to hear them. However always look at Plots that Transcend Genre as any of those can be worked into these settings easily.

My Main Desires At The Moment: Grand Adventures With Cannons, A Disgraced Hero, An Officer and a Gentleman, Science Versus Something Older.

Added:
Gunpowder Fantasy Desires
Grand Adventures With Cannons
An Officer and a Gentleman
A Thief and a Scoundrel
A Disgraced Hero
Of Conquerors and Despoilers
Revolutions and Civil Wars

[Leon Weber]

Removed plots currently being used, and offering a bump with current cravings.

Current Cravings: Main big craving right now is sex workers and love, preferably in a modern setting but this is negotiable and can be tied in to various other plots. Other current cravings are still mostly gunpowder fantasy, the biggest of these being either Of Conquerors and Despoilers, and A Thief and a Scoundrel, also perhaps A Disgraced Hero and Revolutions and Civil Wars.

Not super looking for anything outside of these but I am usually open to discussion regardless.

Removed Plots:
Officer and a Gentleman
Science Against Something Older

[Leon Weber]

This thread is over due for a bump, currently looking to work out a new story.
Current Cravings: Currently mostly interested in Sex Workers and Love, preferably in a modern setting. Passing interest in the Of Conquerors and Despoilers, A Disgraced Hero, The Intrepid Vessel, The Young Couple, and the Down on their Luck Couple. Also Gunpowder Fantasy Grand Adventure and Sci-Fi Grand Adventure plots are on the table.

Please DM For Interest.

[Leon Weber]

Bump, removed plots that are not looking for.

Current Cravings: Something from Gunpowder Fantasy is my current preference, but open to Intrepid Vessel from the Sci-Fi Section or something from the Alt-History Section
