- Hello! I'm skinklegs but you can call me Ollie if you'd like.
I've been role playing for upwards of ten years and I'm pretty decent at it. I have some very well-established characters that I've been using for years, so if well-rounded and three-dimensional characters are something you value in a role play partner, you've come to the right reptile. Character development is like, my whole thing, and I will straight sit with you and talk about our characters for hours if you feel like it. I average about 400-600 words per post and would like a partner around the same level, but I value quality over quantity.
I like to role play either on Discord or on the forums since my inbox sometimes fills up fast and it can be hard to keep organized. :^) I'll compromise tho, this isn't like, a rule.
Anyway, here's some of the stuff I'm interested in!
Animals!
(Mostly dogs but listen.)
- » Regular ole wilderness survival. A group of stray and/or feral dogs find each other and form a group to help one another survive. The main focus of this would be on the group dynamics and the formation of a hierarchy. I'll also do a stray dog role play in a more urban setting, but I like the high stakes that come with setting the story in the middle of nowhere: the lack of food, the competition from other predators, and the harsh climate.
» Military dogs in wartime. Ideally either WWII or a fictional war set slightly post-WWII. The most compelling idea I have for this is for civilians (and their dogs) to be forced into battle and to explore how they deal with that upheaval, but there's a few more things floating around in my head if that's not your scene. Feel free to come to me w/ ideas for this one too!
Humans!
- » Town where everything's just a little bit weird, somehow. I guess think of Nightvale. I've never listened to Nightvale but I imagine this idea is pretty similar to Nightvale's whole vibe. There's definitely something supernatural happening here, and nobody really seems to talk about it. Why? What causes it? Is it sinister, or is it just weird? And how weird can it get?
» Supernatural creatures (werewolves, vampires, witches, etc.) get together once a year every October to put on the best dang charity haunted house the world's ever seen.
» Private investigator finds themselves in deep trouble with the missing person they were hired to find. Now they're on the run from who knows who, and they can't go to the police. Would very much like this to be a romance between two women. I will be playing a female character at least! I don't have much of a role preference, but if I had to choose, I'd play the investigator.
» Vigilante "superheroes" a la Kick-Ass, if anybody remembers that movie lol. Some kids or young adults decide to put on some disguises and fight petty crime with their fists, but find themselves in way over their heads when they encounter something really and truly villainous.
» General cliche romance tropes, preferably fxf. I wouldn't mind trying mxf too, but I don't have any straight male characters so that'd be on you lol. I like things like tattoo artist x flower shop owner or a public official's son/daughter x known troublemaker. Obviously those aren't the only two things I'll do. I can list off more on request, and feel free to hit me up w/ your own ideas if you got em!
Fandoms!
- » Ginga Nagareboshi Gin and Ginga Densetsu Weed. I prefer GNG but I'll do something set pretty much anywhere in the timeline. I don't follow the manga tho so I know next to nothing about what happened post-Hougen lol. Would prefer to use exclusively OCs for this one. I think making up our own GNG platoon would be fun.
» Soul Eater. I'll do pretty much anything with this one, I just like the setting. I'll do OCs (I like playing weapons), canon (SoMa's my jam), or a mix of the two. I haven't role played Soul Eater for a few years but was into it for a long time, so I think I can play all of the main characters passably at worst, I just need to shake off the rust.
» Miraculous Ladybug. I very much prefer playing Marinette; I don't click with Adrien quite as well as I do with her, but I can still write a good Adrien if you really want. I'm mostly into canon plots but I'll also do like...not super out-there AUs, like the reverse crush AU where everything's still mostly the same. If you're not sure, ask. Ladrien is my favorite ship...dig it.
