i'm going to apologize in advance as i'm fairly incompetent when it comes to using this site, but i'll try.
i'm really looking for a literate roleplay with a new oc of mine, i have a few rough plot ideas, but would like to flesh them out more with a partner! below includes my rules, character, and everything else.
rules
- please keep it literate. my typical minimum is at around 2-3 detailed paragraphs, but i usually write more (as long as my partner gives me plenty to work with)
- i have difficulty focusing so my response time is pretty slow, that doesn't mean i'm uninterested, i just over think my responses and get sidetracked sometimes
. due to this i'll also probably only take one partner.
- communicate with me, i don't bite! i'd rather you express your ideas and enjoy the roleplay than ghost me because you lost enjoyment
- good grammar is a must
- as this is a 1x1 you must be able to handle other characters outside of your main character as needed. it gets a little weird when our characters are the only ones with dialogue together, you know?
- this is long-term so i'd really like to have someone who can commit to at least a several month long roleplay!
my character (brief overview)
name
otterpaw
gender
male
sexuality
asexual • biromantic (just an awkward wholesome boy)
rank
apprentice
age
8 moons
appearance
(i have art of him if you're interested! i just didn't post it here as i wanted to keep this post as clear as possible)
he's a solid reddish brown brown tom with large blue eyes. his fur is short and often unkempt as he's generally careless when it comes to his appearance. he's on the small side with a slim build suited for hunting more than fighting. despite this, he loves fighting, and has earned a scar across the bridge of his nose and a nick in his ear from his various scraps. otterpaw's front left tooth was twisted after a fall as a kit and now remains visible even when his mouth is closed.
personality
despite his love of fighting, otterpaw isn't aggressive nor hot headed, he simply admires skilled fighters and wants to be able to defend himself whenever necessary. in reality, he's mild-mannered and can usually be found internally panicking over something unimportant in his mind. he's really a nervous wreck who's generally uncoordinated which makes his passion for fighting even more difficult. most think he should've been taken in as the medicine cat's apprentice. his name comes from his swiftness in water, slipping in and out with the skill of an otter.
plot
i'm really leaning towards something romantic with him, just because i think it'd be really cute. i'd like to do something forbidden too, to add another layer of drama and keep things interesting. forbidden romance can be a little hard to pull off well, in a way that feels authentic, so it'll need a little discussion as to how we go about it, but if done well i believe we can create something really interesting. as a general rule i like to add an over-arching plot to romance-focused roleplays, it gives us something to do when our characters aren't directly in contact and adds a layer of depth to everything. so famine, a prophecy, a corrupt leader, clan take-over, war over territory, etc. i'm open to all ideas and if all goes well, we'll be able to explore several of these ideas. otterpaw is starting off as a young apprentice, he's got a whole life ahead of him to explore so we really aren't limited to anything.
as far as the clans go, i'm open to using the canon ones, but if you're up to it creating our own clans would be cool. it would allow extra freedom, we could add or remove ranks, make a separate code and invent a new way of living that differs from the books. it would allow for more flexibility in the plot too.
anyway, i hope i managed to attract someones attention with this, i look forward to roleplaying!
