Yes hi hello, I'm back at it again because I have a lot of muse and nowhere to put it - I want to do something and futz around with a few characters I haven't gotten to use too much, the only problem is . I RP in threads or on discord - I really only use PMs for planning because I don't like not being able to edit my posts cause I tend to catch mistakes only after I've posted Not gunna lie, I'm better at character building rather than coming up with plots, but I can work with just about anything. I'm a sucker for supernatural beings, class differences (whether it be wealth, popularity, or like a gang member ending up with a cop or something man I'm down), and anything with like, little shops? flower shops, cafes, just cute little places are just ughhhh I love them. I'm honestly down for anything and have a couple super vague plot ideas but I don't want anything to fall apart should it end in a romance - I'm fine with romace in plots but over a long period of time I find that plots relying souly on romance fall apart too easily The vague plot ideas are just ideas - you can propose anything you'd like c: I usually write about two paragraphs per post unless something is wrong or I just can't think of what to say, cause I know that happens sometimes. Otherwise, I'm pretty good about matching the length of the post provided Hit me with some cool stuff c: or just say hi that's also dope
Vague plot ideas - Unlikely partners, likely in the style of a criminal and the law or somethin like that - you caught an unwordly creature except now you don't know what to do with it - so you decide to keep it and attempt to socialize it which could turn out great or end poorly - accidently summoned a demon who can't leave until it's fulfilled a given task and recieved payment except it was an accident send help - local gumiho wants to be worshipped as a diety and has been quietly removing those in positions of power (can also include the first vague plot) - did I still from the queen? Yes. Did my theft interupt an important meeting with a differing countries officials? Also yes - no i don't know how that turned out but it sounded bad - assassins. Think assassin's creed style assassins. Literally anything to do with them i'm down for - got this cool tattoo cause it looked nice but it's summoned a minor diety who is techinically yours to use. Dominate the world or just go have lunch? Big decisions - two roommates working for opposing forces but not realizing it until waaaaaaaay later

- Kingdoms must work together to create peace between their nations. After tensions rise/years of war/a new threat/insert other reason, heirs to the kingdoms must meet and come to some sort of agreement. Not everyone wants that to happen, however. With a threat lurking just beyond their view, they must work together to create peace. Could possibly be bodyguards/royals thing as well. Fantasy
- One kingdom is a conquer, another has fallen, and the last is threatened by the first. Either through a war-torn country or a thretened kingdom, the characters meet and travel together. For one reason or another they get caught up in the conflitict. One or more of the characters could be the last surviving members of the royal family of the fallen kingdom. Fantasy, action, adventure
- The capital of a kingdom is a hub for fresh starts and crimlords. For one reason or another, the characters are heading to the capital. They hope for good fortune/a new life/insert other reason here in their new home. However things don't go as planned when they discover/get caught up in gang conflict. Fantasy or Scifi, adventure, action
- Thief(eves)/Criminal(s) come across a runaway royal on the streets of their city. For one reason or another, a child of the ruler(s) has run away from home scared and alone. They won't say why they ran, only that they won't go back for they fear their life's in danger. After getting them out of the city, the criminal(s) help protect the royal and figure out what's going on. Fantasy, adventure, mystery
- The local ruling/head noble is hosting a grand party of some sort. As the guests, entertainment, servants, etc. enjoy a spectacular night, the city outside begins to burn. In the city below people work together to escape from the flames. The noble's plot of chaos/destruction is uncovered. If using multiple characters, there can be two groups. One in the town trying to escape and the other at the party. (This would probably be more of a beginning plot to build off of or a minor plot somewhere in the rp) Fantasy/Scifi, mystery, adventure
- A war has been raging for a hundred years. It's been going on for so long, no one seems to remeber the reason for it. During one attack, two people(or groups) from opposite sides become stranded and are forced to work and survive together. They eventually become friends and try to figure out what they'll do if they go back. Scifi/Fantasy, action, adventure
We can combine plots if you're interested too.

Ayyyy don’t know if you’ve ever played Skyrim or any of the Elder Scrolls games, but one idea I had was pretty heavily fantasy based. So pretty much set in a high fantasy world, with elves, orcs and all sorts of creatures. I can go into more depth if this sounds like something you’d like!
Another plot I have is more modern and realistic based. Kind of gang/mafia related but with assassins, involving a lot of mystery, crime and general chaos. There aren’t any supernatural elements in this plot, but we can always add them if you’d prefer it.

Alright, sounds good to me!
So with that in mind, I have an idea to combine the plots:
There are three kingdoms who are not in good standing for one reason or another. So now the kingdom are working together to create some kind of peace. During that important time, a thief tries to steal something from one of a royal. At some point there's a fire. We can work on that last bit.

We can work on that last bit. Ohhh definitely. It could be a progressive plot, I think that could make them work together better. Start with the turmoil, the inevitably smaller (thusly appearing weaker) kingdom, likely receives the most damage. In this lull, there’s a rise in thieves and the like, so we can throw a whole thief (or several thieves) in there. Even after creating this sort of piece, their officials are still upset, and lets say the other two kingdoms have agreed on some large event to celebrate peace, the third kingdom launches this plan to ultimately prove that they can do things and set the which ever kingdom is holding the party on fire. Or something like that

I like that idea. It incorporates all the basic plots into more of a storyline if that makes sense.
Should we create a thread to continue plotting and whatnot?

Okay cool! tbh I wasn't sure if it made complete sense while I was typing it out cause I write how I talk when it comes to planning
I'm down with whatever! I work on here and discord, so I figure if you wanted to keep plotting/planning we could do it through PMs just to keep it all in one place? If that works for you, that is

Sweet! Also same, Skyrim is one of my all time favorite games to binge.
Order of the Blue Moon[/i]
Thoril is a kingdom built into the side of a massive, ice-ridden mountain. Governed by an emperor and empress who are strict but fair, the land has prospered for many generations. Though cold and intimidating, there is much to be found in Thoril — natural resources are in abundance, crops tend to do well if watched carefully, and the livestock that graze the fields are hardy. Free of war and turmoil, peace has long since settled over the collection of farmland and villages surrounding the main capital.
However, that peace was never meant to last forever. On one fateful night, the emperor is found long dead in his private study, killed silently in his sleep by an unknown intruder. Thoril is thrown into an uproar. Only one thing is known about the killer: that they might have been of a very specific race of creature, not native to Thoril. The empress demands justice and accuses all who show the smallest signs of suspicion, leaving no room for betrayal as she sentences them to death, whether they fit the vague description or not.
I figured one of our characters would be a servant accused of being an accomplice or the murderer due to their species/something they have physically in common with the actual killer. The second character would be a petty criminal — thief, con artist, etc. The two of them could meet each other in the prison cells and form a deal of sorts to help each other out.
A Leap of Faith
In 2012, a massive city of advanced technological and medical prowess was constructed from the ground up. Named Fortune by its founders, it became the central hub of business and wealth in all of the United States, located directly in the middle of Maine. People moved from all over the country — and all over the world — to find their place within this newfound city. As the years passed by, however, the glitz and glamour Fortune began to crack and break. Beneath the facade of peace and prosperity was a world of crime, chaos and absolute discord.
To the people who could see past this enticing exterior, it became clear that the mayor and wealthy entrepreneurs were not the ones in charge: the city belonged to the Daybreakers. Once a small time gang from New York, they took advantage of the new city to expand their ranks and grow into something more dangerous. They run the city with an iron fist, taking all the money they want and destroying any small gangs that dare to challenge their authority. The police are under their thumb, as are judges and most hospitals.
For this plot, I was thinking that one character could be a kid of the gang’s leader, while the other could be a member of very secretive, old guild of assassins that’s been contracted by an unknown benefactor to kill the leader of the Daybreakers. It could lead to a lot of drama if they become friends and neither of them know each other’s real identities.
