rules of the game
- First and foremost, I will only roleplay with people who are at least 18 years old, and with characters who are at least 18 years old. I would prefer folks who are at least 21, but if you are younger than that but still over 18, I won't turn you away.
- Things like godmoding, metagaming, or powerplaying are not going to fly with me. If you don't know what these things mean, please look them up.
- I like my partners to have a good grasp on the English language when in-character. I'm not going to jump down your throat if you make a few mistakes here and there (I make them, too!), but please try not to make them a habit. Out of character, as long as I can comprehend what you're saying, I don't care about grammar or spelling. Usually I tend to forego capitalization and end punctuation out of character, as well as use little bits of chatspeak (lol, omg, wtf, etc.), so if you're uncomfortable with that, please let me know and I'll do my best to cut back on it as much as possible. I will usually try to match my partner's level of formality OOC, whether it's complete proper grammar or not.
- I prefer paragraph-format, third person, past-tense roleplay. It's what I've done for very close to all the time I've roleplayed, so it's what I'm most used to! I might be willing to try other formats, though.
- I will do my best to match your post length. Usually, I tend to write 5-7 paragraphs per post, though sometimes less, and sometimes more if I'm writing an intro or got really inspired. I don't mind if you write something shorter, as long as it's something to work with and moves the story forward!
- I adore worldbuilding, and will gladly spend weeks planning out the universe of our roleplay with you if you'd like, but if you don't, that's fine! I've got plenty of worlds that I've made over the years that I could toss us into, or we could make something up on the fly!
- I will only do roleplays with fantasy or sci-fi elements. Not every roleplay has to be epic high fantasy with dragons and knights and goddesses and evil wizards, but I find roleplays without any sort of fantasy or sci-fi twist extremely boring and will not agree to them. All of my characters have some sort of fantastical trait to them, whether they are human and have some non-human element to them (magic, a cybernetic arm, etc.) or are completely not human (a vampire, an angel, a goddess, etc). If you aren't okay with that, then I'm not the partner for you. NOTE: Fandoms are sometimes an exception to this.
- I try my best to not have too many limits, but if you're into some freaky shit, I might have to hold up the red card. I will talk to you about
- Doubling, tripling, playing whole herds of characters is fine with me! I've had roleplays where I've made upwards of a dozen characters and rotated them in and out based on the plot or on inspiration. If you want me to play multiple characters, I ask that you do likewise.
- In terms of pairings, I only play female characters except in rare circumstances. I highly prefer fxf roleplay when romance is involved, though if I like your character or plot enough, I can be convinced to do mxf. Please don't be upset if I turn you down if you propose mxf roleplay, because the times I accept it are the exception, not the rule. I will not, under any circumstances, do mxm roleplay. I'm sorry if your heart was set on one, but bad experiences with them in the past have soured my taste for them, and I want nothing more to do with them.
- I will do my best to reply as often as I can, but keep in mind that I have a full-time job, so that may be once every couple of days. I'll do my best to let you know if I'm going to be a while, but if you haven't heard from me in a few days, please poke me, I may very well have just forgotten to reply! I can be forgetful.
- If you're losing inspiration on the current roleplay, let me know! I'm happy to work something out that might bring the inspiration back, or try something new! I don't bite.
- Obligatory butt-covering rule: I reserve the right to add new rules or modify existing rules at any time as I see fit.
