ah, from what i understand anyway, it's not really my sort of plot. there's very little to go off and it wouldn't work long-term, because there would be only one point of interaction (and even then, the character role isn't my thing; i've already said i won't do police/detectives and that's essentially what that is), and so in the end - it's a plot that sounds like it would be better for a story if refined, not a roleplay.

it's okay, but that part could've been prevented.
i mean, it probably fits your character? just because it's not my thing doesn't mean it's a bad thing.
yep, thank you

Ok I have a spare moment at work and I also remember the plot I wanted to pitch to you! Such a rare combination~
So you're all for merfolk and dragons and pirates. So here's a thought for you: A ship waiting on a good wind to take them back out of open ocean is visited by a siren. Once the initial hostilities are dealt with, the siren asks a dangerous favor - they promise lost treasure from miles below the surface if the ship and crew can deal with a sea dragon.

that definitely has potential to be interesting and it is my thing, sure~

Okay, so I'm thinking odds are the sea dragon has either took something for its hoard the siren wants/wants back, or it might have started nesting too near the siren's territory and they don't want to move. Or perhaps the siren's used some magic to weaken the wind and currents until they have the ship's allegiance. Something along those lines.

i feel like the sea dragon nesting close to / in the territory would be the more sensible option. my question is why the siren doesnt just captivate the crew into doing what they want? like, it would be easier than just asking. all they have to do is sing and the ship's crewmates are theirs. like, sirens are man-eating beasts, not the friendly locals who ask u politely for things

My assumption is that people under charm effects (As in DnD) don't behave in a way that you'd want them doing things for you. Yeah, they'll follow your orders, but they wouldn't actually last that long in a proper fight if they weren't completely aware of their actions. In my experience with charmed effects in other games, the charmer has to be there, instructing every action and giving simple orders/suggestions.
I think the best example I had was a beholder had used a charm effect on a player character, and it was trying to make her walk into a trap. So its suggestions were "you would walk that way, that seems like a nice direction" "You should look over there. See something shining?" "That's a key. maybe it unlocks something you want?" And when she went to pick up the key, she got oneshot by a floor trap. So you can't give the instructions "Go here and fight this, or go here and take this", you have to GO one step at a time.

ah, i see. that could be a much better (and less god-mod) way of using a siren, sure. it makes sense to me

X3 could you imagine just "let's fire the cannons, okay guys?", entire crew flocks to cannons, half of them aren't loaded and six shots fly off in separate directions, not one even near the dragon.

so do we want to talk character dispersion?

if this is still open i'm def interested. but my fair warning is that i'm also definitely spotty when it comes to activity & my muse tends to fluctuate - i usually use discord to keep in touch w/ my rp partner for reminders (for me) to reply or just to chat, since relaxed chatting tends to stir my muse up too lmao
i'm big into fantasy & supernatural and sci-fi, and i'm willing to try crime and/or blend the themes : o
i'm also kind of dry on plot ideas .. but i love discussing world building & chara dev

Hey hey hey sign me up too. Honestly just put me in the same category as ^^^^^^^^^ above but I'm interested in a slice of life, or criminal (I've never done a criminal one so I'm interested to try character development with those types)
