Multicharacter, Mid-eval, Fantasy
Of Princes and Poisons I'm looking for someone who is interested in doing a mideval fantasy RP where we play (several) a few characters in a power struggle for the throne. This contains:
The Basic Plot: Quote:
Spacer: Quote:

Sole Survivor: Quote:

I play all genders, and sexualities. I am 25(almost 26!), so if you're over the age of 18, we can take anything we need to to the PMs if you don't want to skip over it. Though as I have no proof of your age, I /prefer/ to skip those things, or gloss them in a PG-13 way. |
Sounds interesting
|
Any thoughts?
|
Not really I'm up for playing several characters. Should it be two kingdoms or more then two? I think if its just us two would be plenty one for each of us.
|
[lol] The way you wrote about arranged marriages and romance just made me chuckle and feel fuzzy, because I agree with you. xD It's just so much more fun any 'not easy right away' way!
Also, interesting plot! Is there even happy ending in this? [lol] But sometimes, story doesn't need them. Not for main characters at least. [twisted] |
finx15: whoa now, we haven't even gotten in to the nit grit of talking compatability here and I hate to bring it up but since I really want to RP this and see it at least a good portion of the way through, this is necessary that I treat this like a virgin and take it slow. My wants are obviously not for good intentions. The more I love my characters, the more they suffer. I plan on killing people off more frequently than I should want to because they are expendable. I need a variety of character types, so I'm really hoping you're just as good as being cruel as you are kind. You didn't mention what direction or flavoring you liked as each of those changes the direction of the story. And where you want this to go. I mean, I'm really going to be difficult if we simply jump in seeing as my goal is to take everything nice and slowly drip acid on it until nothing is left but stark white bones.
sadrain: absolutely! The more it's worked for, the better it is, and if it's rushed in to then I expect so much suffering. |
You did ask if I had any thoughts and that was the first one that popped into my head.
|
I only accept love from first sight thing if it's one sided... Until the other ends up accepting/returning it, the first might have already moved on! [twisted]
I must admit, I've had to put up with meekly done romances for too often, so I'm particularly picky about them now. Better not have it all than a lame one. Some people have gotten angry because I've not changed my character's attitude just so the romance would form, but that's just beyond what I'm willing to do. |
finx15: I have a feeling I may not be the partner for you dear.
sadrain: I love unrequited torment. lol perhaps I'm just a terrible person. Meekly done? I couldn't do it. If we're writing a romance I want full steam awkwardness. I haven't done a RP with romance as the main plot in a while, because a lot of people only seems to want to rush in and smut. And I like the complex emotional aspect best. I also have had people complain about my characters not being lovey dovey, or being difficult, but it's like, I told you this going in to it, don't look at me. You wanted me to play a certain type so they're always that way. I'm not going to rewrite my shy character not to react shyly just because you suddenly can't be bold in writing. |
I've done 'sacrifices' for sake of old RP acquaintances. But no more. Especially since it just kills the RP. ): Still, I better see a RP go than change my character for sake of lovey-dovey or just any kind of romance. Which is why some of my characters seem to be destined alone in the world - they are fit for that kind of life, so I don't mind too much, but they'd be so fun and challenging in forming relationships. But, obviously, too much work for most.
Of course, when I was 14, I did the silly RPs, too, but we were of equal age and then it was just cute and fluffy, and I did end up tired of it, too. Smut is another sad part... Like, on a site I go on, lot of people publish and play their Furcadia characters that are amazingly in-depth and so on... But it's all about smut and slavery and more smut in the end. Makes me sad. I don't play that kind of stuff. And that's my choice, as it's theirs to play it, but ends up limiting my choices. Well, it's really nice to see that someone has similar romance views in RP world. :) I do like to torture my characters, too, but most of them I'm too attached to kill off. Then again, I could do it in one setting, just not take them off my whole OC list, hehe. ^^; Side characters like NPC... they can go, though. |
Why because I can think? It was a good question if I say so there would have been more details hashed out but that was what I thought of first. If you think that's stupid well then you are weird.
|
Oh this is interesting. ^_^ I'd be happy to follow the roleplay wherever it goes. The idea of dying characters seems more tasteful than the typical everyone-lives-in-the-end sort of end. I would put my hand in to RP it, but I tend to stray from well-formed plots. ^^; Therefore I shall be a lurker, if that's okay?
|
*whispers I'm in the same boat as Harley Quinn with lurking*
The whole idea that people want instant 'true love' attraction in a lot of RPs is little sad. Like, where is the fun in that? How are you meant to progress with that kind of thing. |
-stalks le thread with intrest- [ninja]

Oh well, hello you sexy little lurkers you! I'm sorry I haven't replied to anyone, I'm fighting the plague right now and I have the attention span of a piece of lint.
finx15: I never said any of that. So now I really believe that we're not compatible partners. I shouldn't be insulted for saying I'm not interested in going this path with you. That's extremely rude. sadrain: Omg, Furcadia! Ha, I remember going on there, way under aged and totally not prepared. Talk about a throwback. I have less issue with smut, if it's still interesting and done well. But, I'd rather write a death scene than a sex scene any day. haha. I'm actually writing the first real sex scene in my novel today and I got shy and wandered off to get on Menewsha (weirdly enough I wrote a death scene right before the sex scene). And while irl, I was looking to become a sub, I find role playing that sort of relationship completely dull, because most people don't understand the nuisances of the power flow. Or how, though the dom may seem to have the power it's actually the sub who holds all of the control, the design the limits, they decide when to misbehave, they control the boundaries. Being a dom is actually giving up control in favor of command. The intimacy and concern with the enjoyment of the other is the foundation of the relationship. I've written some fairly Mary sure things, and I, at 25 finally understand the importance of pants in a story (a character a reader can insert themselves in to). But unlike Smeyers I understand the fine line between. I just feel like the best love is worked hard for, in life and in fiction. Sometimes you just love people when you meet them (at least as friends) but the greatest, the most powerful, is the one that you fight for. |
Hello there :). Are you meaning literally the plague or just comparing o.o lol. Hopefully comparing.
|
Haha, comparing. I literally could not write the word comparing just now and had to retype it 6 times because my fingers and my brain don't want to communicate. I have the sniffly mucus like virus going around, which is gross but not the worst thing. I beat my fever in the first couple days, so there was that. And now I'm just trying to fight my want for milk and cookies, when milk is trying to murder me.

Variety is well and dandy, too. One cannot simply play only good as that gets dry after a while. I have my fair share of darker or inhuman characters. I've one who's in love with his twin sister. Another who's hellbent on killing his brother. Also those who hate their own kin and kind. Yes, yes! The more characters of differing personalities and views, the better. It opens up so many doors. So many possibilities! And your forced marriage. Ah, yes! Love cannot always be as we see in the movies. Must make it real from time to time, yes? Sadrain and I have a roleplay going where we had originally hoped the characters might fall in love but the more we play with them, well, the harder it'll be to achieve that. Granted, it doesn't mean that feelings don't eventually develop. It's more fun that way. To let the story guide the character and his movements and thoughts. O.O I just realized I totally intruded. My b! I was just dropping in to add my two cents to the pot. No idea why though. I guess I was bored? *shrugs* |
That sucks u.u, feeling bad is not good at all. I do hope you feel better soon lol. Also no worries on the spelling x.x I tend to do that a lot to. I'll spell something and it looks totally wrong, when it actually is right.

I hope you feel better soon Cara [gonk]
I think that's just English for you 8'D |
