Multi-genre Search! Several characters/plots/faces to offer!

CastoffCaptain

Obsess. Hunt. Manipulate. Repeat.
Hi, guys, I'm Captain. I'm going to get right to the point and toss out a few characters that I'd be happy to play right now, as well as a few faces I wouldn't mind building a world/personality/RP around.

Below that is a list of stuff you can expect from me and/or the RP.

I am currently only looking for one partner, so I'm gonna be a wee bit picky.

**If any of these plots and characters appeal to you, but you're thinking, "I'd rather play my own version of that character," please let me know and I might be willing to switch roles with you!

Brother Bernard

Bernard is a holy man who can be played as either a monk or a friar. He's a giant of a man who, early in his life, was the youngest son of a noble family, sent to take holy orders because of an unpleasant incident that he has never spoken of to anyone outside of his immediate kin. He has a love of knowledge and brooks no nonsense--sometimes, it could be said he's got some sass.

Genres:
*Historical
*Time-travel
*Historical fantasy/supernatural (werewolf, anyone?)
(No high fantasy)

--I have a plot involving time-travel back to the 14th century and the Black Death, and in fact, this is the setting I'd prefer to RP him in. The plague swept through Brother Bernard's small island priory, leaving him the only survivor who didn't steal secretly away to the mainland in the only boats the monks had. (He's new to this particular priory, having angered the abbott of his previous one enough to be sent away to the boondocks.) He's alone and uncertain of how he's going to get in touch with the rest of the world, or if indeed it's still there. A young woman shows up suddenly with strange ways, clothes, and language, tossing his already-wrecked existence into further confusion.

*It would be helpful if your character spoke Latin or Middle English--otherwise we'll have to come up with a fancy way to explain how your character and mine speak the same language.

*This plot can be tweaked-- if you prefer to set this even earlier, we can switch to the Anglo-Saxon period and involve Vikings, perhaps, or simply have Bernard be a hermit, although that limits the amount of side-characters we can eventually bring in.


Father Henricus

As opposed to the somewhat grumpy Bernard, Father Henricus is an optimistic, cheerful, innocent soul. He's inexperienced when it comes to love and women and has a somewhat overly-romanticized version of how the world should and does work.

*Historical
*Time-travel
*Historical fantasy/supernatural
(No high fantasy)
*Modern supernatural

********ehhh, probably not slice-of-life, but see below.

--He can and has been played as a newly-bitten werewolf on a pilgrimage to a saint's shrine looking for what he thinks will be a cure to his condition.

--He can also be put into any number of pre-1500s historical plots as a normal human, whether this be a forbidden romance, time-travel, a victim of marauding invaders, a man accused of a crime he didn't commit who's hiding from the authorities, or an escort for a young woman heading to her arranged marriage.

--Maybe. Maybe. Maybe with the right partner/counter-character, general modern--I have a potential plot with setting, so feel free to ask about it, but I have to warn you, I'm terrible at slice of life. I kinda get bored with it unless it's just right.


Cess Liddell

Cess is a young woman living in New Orleans who works in the French Quarter as a ghost tour guide. Strange things happen around her. Supernatural things. Ghostly things she seems completely comfortable around. Your character has an agenda for joining one of her tours-- let's figure it out together.

*Pretty much only modern supernatural.


Here are some photos refs that I would love to use for creating characters and building worlds around.

So far, I haven't got a name, genre, or universe for this guy, but I do have his personality. He's a bit of a rogue and most definitely a thief. In most of my imaginings of him, he's incredibly good at thieving, but he has a tendency to think he's a lady's man and a great fast-talker, when in fact he fails fairly often at it. He's also quite concerned with his own self-preservation. We're not looking at a terribly brave man, here. But he's fun, light-hearted, good for a laugh, and he'll certainly walk off with your character's wallet without them noticing.


Genres:

*Modern supernatural
*Sci-fi
*Western

Especially this one:

I'd love to make up a world and plot for one of these. I like these because they're pretty, but don't have a set personality for them.

*Historical
*Modern supernatural
*Time travel
*You suggest?


James McAvoy

I've loved this picture for years now. I've always wanted to create a character for it, but so far, nothing has sprung to mind, and other RPs have superceded it so it's remained on the back burner.

*Historical
*Low fantasy (more folklore/pseudo-medieval/Vikings or Last Kingdom than Tolkien-esque/Game of Thrones-esque)
*Time travel
*Maybe. Maybe. Post-apocalyptic-- no zombies. The "apocalypse" happened decades before--no middle-of-the-crisis plots, please. :)

--I usually post about four-ish times a week. I'm fairly laid-back about this, and won't demand that you post any more than that. Once a week is too little, however. Fair warming: I don't tend to post on weekends, and if I'm not training new employees at my job, I don't work/post on Mondays, either.


--Romance isn't a must. It's fun, but if it doesn't happen, it doesn't.


--If you're under 18, please let me know so that I don't scandalize you with foul jokes and my potty mouth. (I won't turn you down just because you're under 18, but I will adjust my OOC talk accordingly.)


--The only thing I ask from you up-front is a writing sample. I'll provide you with mine (or you can post-stalk me and read my in-progress RPs). This will help us to determine if we're mutually compatible, and can prevent any potential disappointments.


--If you prefer to make your posts pretty, that's cool. If you don't want to, that's fine, too. I like photo refs, but I don't expect them, and I don't want to use them as excuses to not add descriptive detail to the RP.


--I play one main. Then, as needed in the RP, I'll play sides and NPCs. These sides/NPCs are mine to be controlled by me, and if you decide to play any, then I won't attempt to control them, just as much as I wouldn't attempt to control your main. (Don't feel compelled to to play sides if you don't want to, however. I'm comfortable with RPing with a partner who plays one and only character.)

Please PM me or message me here!

I can do just about anything, mate — precisely, anything that ain't related to romance. If you get the gist of it — and it is a very austere message — do send me a PM.

Ha! I can't tell if you're afraid I'm going to send you nekkid monk pictures, are insulting my intelligence, or really, really want me to play a priest.

Kidding. Just kidding. Don't slap me.

Before I pm, are there any that you're leaning toward more than another? I know you said you could do just about anything (minus heaving bosoms), but if you have a preference, I'd love to hear it. Even if it's just a pref to play a
Certain gender or genre.

Thank you for your interest!
 
I wouldn't mind doing something with Diego (huehuehue)
But really. I'm kind of feeling a romance. (Not forcing it or anything, but maybe something with that in mind?) Western isn't usually my thing - actually I've never done a western I don't think - but I'd love to make a southern bell!
Maybe he's a Casanova and in between all these chicks he's trying to get he's really thinking about this one girl? Or the girl has a crush on him but he's kind of a dick (cause of the thieving and whatnot)? Let me know if any of this springs any ideas!

Were you talking Southern Belle in an historical sense, or did you want just... the South in general? I live here. There. Uh, in the South, but I'll definitely be playing Diego as some form of Hispanic/Latin. *grin*

Hmm I mean like... the south before TV lol.
Slightly embarrasing but I'm REALLY bad with times. Like, was there TV in the 1970's? I dunno, maybe?
 
Yeah I clicked on that, said ew and clicked away hahaha.

So what else, then? Maybe sci-fi?

Maybe!! He's a good choice for that. If it's okay by you, would you mind PMing me some writing samples, or if you have threads up, do you mind if I post stalk you before we get too deep into stuff?

I can find some stuff for you. I don't know how much of my recent history is real posts, unfortunately.
I'll PM you some
 
Hello Captain!
I was thinking about creating something revolving around Father Henricus, seems interesting with the werewolf aspect, yet, I'm open to other things as well. Maybe we can figure it out together if you're willing to rp with me that is. =)
 
Thanks for the PM! Henri's my current favorite at the moment, so I'm happy you chose him. Do you mind if I ask for samples just so we can see if we are compatible? Feel free to post/stalk me. I'm in two RPs in public threads that'll give you a good indication of how I post. They're "CastoffZooka" and "MysteriousCaptain".

Preference, hmm... Well, I usually play male — and honestly, I played a female only twice in my entire history here in RPnation — characters; for genres, I can play just about anything, such as realistic, modern, fantasy, history etc.

Y'know, the usual. I have a few loose plots here and there, but they mostly cater to a soft-fantasy/historical setting. 14-15th century. You could say I'm on a historical streak here, so there's that.

Oh, hell. I'd already said yes to someone by the time you posted this yesterday. And had I known I would have had the chance to play a female... Dammit.

If this new thing doesn't work out, may I contact you again?
