Not entirely sure of what. Something supernatural/fantasy probably. Could be modern fantasy. Or possibly sci-fi, that seems appealing suddenly. Honestly I'm not really sure what kind of theme/plot I wanna do so just start throwing things out there lol.
Before that, though, a few things. Hoping for a relatively long-term rp here because mine never last and I would like to be able to get at least a minimal amount of character development and plot progression in before this dies. I'll warn you that sometimes I vanish for a few hours to a few days, but I will always be back eventually, at least if it seems like you're still interested. Other times, I'll be very active and be able to rp rapid fire, and I would like a partner who is able and willing to be quick at times as well. Not a must, but a preference. Past that, I'm looking for someone who is semi-literate to literate. Good grammar, able to make dynamic and interesting characters, and post at least a paragraph, preferably more (of course, you don't have to every post, but you should be ABLE to, and do so on occasion). I'm not a fan of exclusively romance roleplays, however, I am all for romance as a subplot. However, it must be mxm. I have no problem with you playing a female character, but it won't lead to romance, sorry. Not with my main character at least.
So, for subject... like I said, really just start throwing stuff out there. Supernatural, fantasy, possibly sci-fi. I'm also open for roleplays based on movies/shows/whatever, but overall I would prefer to not do canon characters. I'm interested in things like The Inheritance Cycle, Soul Eater, Psycho-Pass, American Horror Story, Harry Potter, Elder Scrolls, Fullmetal Alchemist, and many others in similar categories. Feel free to throw something out and maybe I'm into it, maybe not.
So.... any takers?

Sort of. But I don't recognize your screen name. What was it before?

It's been a few different things. I wanna say most recently prior to Goblin King was Archduke Ferdinand? Before that, di-stri. We've done a few rps together. Most recently was the bakemeko one. That was a little while ago though.

(Right, right! I remember Arch and Di. And i remember he neko. I think what ended up happening was Julian's difficult to play as younger than 30 X3 It's been forever since I've seen you. I actually opened a whole plot shop, though its been quiet lately. If you like one of those we can go off that, or I'm sure we can figure out another fantasy rp)

(Also, as it happens, I'm also into Soul Eater. We're actually about to show the series to my husband's little brother. I happen to have a weapon character and a witch ready to go.)

Hm. I actually have two characters I could play, and in a few ways. Though, both are based on the manga version.... still, I suppose that doesn't entirely discount either, though I would have to change Shinigami a bit. One is, as the name implies, a shinigami- actually Death the Kid's kid. And, surprisingly, his name is Shinigami. The other is "Dyson" which is Stein and Marie's kid (which, spoiler alert, is a thing in the manga. Though she's only pregnant at the end so we have no canon on what the kid is like). Dyson is usually a meister while Shinigami is designed to be a shapeshifer due to things that happen at the end of the manga. But I suppose I could change him to be a bit more like what I remember from the end of the anime. Or I could completely discount both of them and come up with a new character if we wanted the roleplay to take place in the time of the canon rather than a while afterwards.

(I never got to read the manga, but it's interesting to hear how things turned out. I probably won't pick it up since I'm really too busy to read anymore. If you wanted to throw both characters in, we could both run a meister/weapon combo of our own, or mix+match.
|

Post by Aphelyon on Jun 10, 2017 1:14:54 GMT -5
Haha yeah we could. Usually I have Dyson being Shinigami's meister since being Stein's kid he theoretically has a pretty versatile wavelength, while Shinigami' s is notoriously difficult to match. However that doesn't have to be the case for this rp.

Post by ValkoinenLeuka on Jun 10, 2017 1:16:30 GMT -5
(Nah, makes sense for me X3 Just let me set up a meister since I have a weapon already. Do you want to do sheets or describe as we go? Also, do you have a villian/beast/witch character you want to run? Since I'm running one, they might work together or compete...or both?)

lol I actually have the general idea for a plot which involves From a and Medusa but it only works with the manga version, there's no way to make it work with the anime version like... At all lol. So I guess I could probably come up with a witch or kishin of some kind, shouldn't be too difficult. Might have to go and refresh myself on what the heck happens at the end of the anime though. I also need to slightly reconsider Shinigami since I can still make him work with the anime version but he makes considerably less sense.

(I remember the anime ends with the kishin fight with Asura/Ashura? and the whole big secret at the end went forgotten since no one was awake/alive/able to see it when or after it happened. I know it picks up with Soul Eater NOT at some point but I just couldn't follow along with that noise)

Post by Aphelyon on Jun 10, 2017 1:35:23 GMT -5
yeah I never bothered with NOT, I heard it was meh. I read and overview for the sake of the lore and that was about it. Yeah I know they fought Ashura and then Maka "defeated him with courage" because that's totally a thing that can happen but past that I'm not really sure. I guess where it comes to the progression of then to now, probably a good 20 or so years later (Dyson is 19 normally but I can make him younger) I would assume that SOME of the lore applies still, like the Lines of A handy (or whatever they're calles) and Kid taking over from Lord Death. Hmmmm.

I usually play older characters (17-28 avg.) so Dyson wouldn't really be adjusted, I think. We might be playing graduates, or maybe students who came back to teach/sub/run missions?)

Post by Aphelyon on Jun 10, 2017 1:54:58 GMT -5
holy sh*t I just reread my last post "Lines of A handy" omfg what the heck autocorrect lol. That's supposed to be Lines of Shanzu XD Lines of A handy... wow.
Anyways, I'd be okay making them a bit older, recent graduates possibly. Shinigami is supposed to be kind of immature so I wouldn't want to make him TOO old but that shouldn't be a problem. Normally he's supposed to be about 12 but physically look about 17 or 18, so I could make him actually like 15 and look more like 20.
Edit: I just realized it autocorrected Crona to From a earlier too. Whyyyyyyy

X3 Mika's probably going to be closer to 20/21, and Reia closer to 23. The witch, only god knows, right?) Also that might as well be what it was called because i didn't know of it at all)

Sounds good to me. Your characters may end up being a bit older than mine but that's aight. I guess we just gotta figure out a good reason why our two groups are having to interact closely and consistently. And I gotta refresh myself on the anime timeline. And figure out what to do with Shinigami. But we can work on that tomorrow because I REALLY need to sleep now lol. Sorry to bail but it's 3am and I work tomorrow. So goodnight

Yeah, if you're in a different time zone than me you did. I knew you had been planning to move but I don't remember if you had actually done so while we were roleplaying.
Anyways, I looked into the anime. I could not find a breakdown of the series of events, just "differences between the manga and anime" which was not exactly in order, so sorry if my details on what happened in the anime is kind of shaky lol.
Anyways, I reconsidered Shinigami and figured out a plan for him. Unfortunately not a whole lot is known about how shinigami function in this universe so I'm kind of going off what I remember and speculate from the manga and what little is on their wiki page lol.
So, I guess now we just need to come up with some reason for our characters to be interacting closely? I think Shinigami and Dyson will be either older students or recent graduates from Shibusen, but your welcome to have your characters be teachers if that's what you want to do.

(I'm thinking... One of them (Probably Mika) comes back to be a teacher's aid or a sub since that's kind of safer work, but still effective at being useful, and Reia, being the ambitions type, will start taking difficult missions and since he's still her weapon, he goes along. Perhaps she organizes a group effort on a particularly dangerous mission?)

Post by Aphelyon on Jun 10, 2017 16:18:08 GMT -5
Could be yeah. Some kind of training for Dyson and Shinigami since they're tough but still students, and then something "easy" to get Reia and Mika back in the groove since they I guess have been out for a bit with Mika teaching? Not really sure exactly what they're story is so I'm not sure if that's correct or not lol

Post by ValkoinenLeuka on Jun 10, 2017 16:29:40 GMT -5
I'm thinking they would have been out in the field until recently/a few months ago when the teaching started. Mika would probably get taken out every friday through the weekend when Reia took missions. It would make sense if senior students were offered a chance to go with if Reia ended up taking a mission that could go for older students, but had the promise of being dangerous. Like one of those missions were they guard a thing in case something happens and something definitely happens)

Alright, sounds like a plan. So, just a few things then. First, what precisely is the mission? Second, do you want to make sheets for the characters or describe them in the roleplay? And thirdly, I actually think for this one I'm gonna switch Dyson and Shinigami and make Dyson the weapon. So I just gotta figure out what I want his weapon form to be lol.

Post by Aphelyon on Jun 11, 2017 10:37:18 GMT -5
I drew Dyson and Shinigami because I'm trash like that lol. I'll post then later when I get the chance.
As for the mission.... we could do some kind of guarding mission like you said, or a hunting mission for souls. Or perhaps seeking an artifact of some kind. Though, the latter seems unlikely without the context of an overreaching plot. Seeing as there's gonna be two pairs, mine and yours, I'd say soul hunting a group is most likely.

(X3 I have drawings of my characters too. Soul hunting sounds good, but have to finish a 25 pt assignment today or i fail my finals)

(I just have to hope that went well ;-; )
Anyway, since the school seems to have a policy on students challenging witches without aid, it'd probably be a kishin hunt. Perhaps a nest or something?)

Post by Aphelyon on Jun 13, 2017 12:48:55 GMT -5
Yeah that's what I figured. Probably a particularly powerful creature or a group of them, or both. Not something SUPER crazy since neither of our groups are, like, elite, but something tough.
