Introduction title here

[bryyo]

1.    Tell us how you found us, please? A link from another site, another member, a search engine phrase, etcetera.

        I have seen Elliquiy mentioned occasionally over the many years I have been roleplaying across various communities, so there is no one single place.

2.    Confirmation that you understand our rules. You are responsible for bringing up any questions if you do not understand our rules, so please note any on which you need clarification here.

        I confirm that I understand Elliquiy's rules.

3.    A confirmation that you are over eighteen (18) years of age. You don't need to give your birth date, however we do need a clear statement that you are of age.

        I confirm that I am over eighteen years of age.

4.    Your native language(s) and what region you are from. List your primary language first and include all others in order of fluency. Elliquiy is an English speaking community but it is also a global one.  We welcome members from all over the world, and we love to know where our members hail from.

        English, Europe.

5.    What are your reasons for joining Elliquiy, and what aspects of our community are you interested in? What do you look for in an on-line community in general, and a role-playing community specifically? Please be descriptive. Elliquiy isn’t just an adult roleplaying site: we have forums for storytelling, poetry, and art; places to socialize with other members; areas to discuss politics and religion; and so much more! You can check out our Preview of Elliquiy to get an idea of what you’ll see as an approved member.

        I tend to lean towards incredibly niche plots, characters and fandoms and am often unsuccessful in my search, so I am seeking to broaden my prospects with the aim of finding like-minded writers keen to tell such stories. I like my privacy and am not looking to engage with a community on topics other than writing.

6.    Are you new to roleplaying? If so, would you like someone to help you get more involved? If not, please tell us a little about your past experiences. Regardless of your experience what are your expectations from a roleplay partner?

        I have over twenty years of writing and roleplaying experience, and would prefer to write with individuals with some roleplaying experience.

7.    Elliquiy consists of a wide array of sexualities, personalities and enthusiasts of various kinks. How comfortable are you interacting in such a community?

        It's not my business, I'm here to write.

8.    How do you feel about males writing as female characters or females writing as male characters? Please elaborate: do you do this yourself? Would you write with someone who is doing this? If you are transgender or intersex, feel free to adapt this question appropriately.

        While I do have a preference, I will write side characters of the opposite sex as appropriate, but what matters to me is compelling characters.

9.    Let us know about your pet peeves or other things that bother you. Fetishes you do not like, styles you cannot appreciate and attitudes that annoy you are all valid answers here.

        Self-inserts and viewing a partner as their character. Ghosting, lack of communication, dishonesty or otherwise stringing a partner along. Long replies with multiple conversations ongoing at once.

Optional Questions:

A.    Would you like to disclose your gender identity? We do not require our members to reveal their real gender. However, doing so determines your User Group, Badge, and some OOC Boards on Elliquiy. General membership will be processed as Legate - approved members who do not wish to disclose their gender identity, or feel gender is irrelevant. Approved members who have chosen to reveal their gender as a response to this question will be assigned: Lady (for those who identify as female), Liege (A supportive group for individuals who are intersex, do not identify with one singular gender, or who are transitioning), or Lord (for those who identify as male). A full explanation of Elliquiy’s User Group and Badge system can be found here.

        Female.

B.    What are some hobbies or activities you particularly enjoy? This can be anything you enjoy in your free time. For example: videogames, sports, cooking, crafts, traveling, reading, etcetera. As a large and diverse community, we often have social areas where our members can talk about their favorite things. Let us know what you like so we can better help you find boards, threads, or discussions that might interest you!

        Writing and roleplaying, video games.

C.    What would you do if a writing partner suddenly, and without prior discussion, included one of your major offs in your roleplay?

        Initiate a discussion. Find out why, set clear boundaries or otherwise reiterate boundaries already established, or end things. The outcome depends on many factors.

D.    Please describe your writing style and preferences. Information such as preferred genre, writing perspective (first, second, or third person perspective), setting, and post length are great answers.

        I write in third person narrative, typically past tense but present tense is not out of the question. I try to be evocative in my writing and prefer to show, not tell, so it can be somewhat stylised. I enjoy character introspection and detail but also appreciate brevity, allowing characters the opportunity to respond without leading to overlapping, and so my replies can range from a couple of smaller paragraphs to four or more. I prefer a slower pace to really get into and explore a scene, the characters and their interactions over fast-paced story progression, even favouring the little moments between all the action.

I primarily roleplay within fandoms — video games, specifically, and the occasional film or TV series, and enjoy crossovers. I prefer to write canon characters. I am a sucker for romance and especially the enemies to lovers (or friends/allies) and Beauty and the Beast tropes.

E.    Please describe your ideal roleplaying partner and their character.

        My ideal roleplaying partner would be flexible, understanding and communicative, and share my interest in exploring fandoms, canon characters and their dynamics.

F.    As part of the application process, our members like asking fun questions of applicants. We want to get to know you and entertain you during your approval process!

F1.  Please let us know if you would you prefer: fun/silly questions, writing prompts, both, or neither. If you opt out, Staff will ask you more serious questions about writing and roleplaying instead.

        Neither.

F2.  If you would like fun questions or a writing prompt, please start by treating the following as either a question, writing prompt, or character building exercise, and remember to keep it PG13: People start waking up with superpowers, but they are mostly useless. For example, the power to be immune to every third bullet, or the power to force people to do the chicken dance whenever the song is played. What would your ‘mostly useless’ power be, and how would you use it?

F3.  If you prefer no crazy questions or prompts, you can still include a sample of your writing, if you would like; we would love to see your writing style and creativity! As with all areas of Elliquiy you can see right now, please keep your writing sample PG13.

G.    Do you have any questions of us? If you have any questions or desires of us in a more direct fashion, please feel free to let us know.

        No questions.

Hello, Bryyo! Welcome to Elliquiy!

Please note that our application process is an interactive one, with other users dropping in to greet you and maybe ask you a question or two! You are also free to meet and greet other applicants in their application threads and do the same, of course. There are also other forum based activities to help break the ice that you can find here!.

The approval process we go through with user members takes a minimum of 24 hours and may take up to a week so please keep such in mind. Approval is also never 100% guaranteed, and we appreciate your understanding of the process!

Finally, keep in mind that before approval all interactions and posts you make must be kept PG-13

I do have a question to start you off with as well!

What is something you'd like to write that you haven't yet had the opportunity to do so?

[bryyo]

Thank you for the warm welcome!

As to your question, there are many concepts and premises that I would have loved to write at one point but have since laid to rest. I can be fickle and go through phases, but my current desire is to write a pirate-themed story with some fantasy elements, involving a cursed pirate and his search for a cure.
