  Hello all, I'm Owl Knight!
  
  I'm a 33 year old English teacher with a little bit of spare time on my hands for collaborative storytelling and I'm excited to find some partners! I have been roleplaying in various capacities for about 10 years and I have been writing stories for as long as I can remember. I thoroughly enjoy the unique challenge of roleplay with partners who are invested in creating unique, complex stories!
  
  I love characters who are broken, jagged and flawed. Those who have been dragged through the mud of life and who face challenges one might consider to be insurmountable. Roland the Gunslinger from The Dark Tower is one of my all time favorite literary figures for this reason. I will always try to have my RP characters mess up, take damage, face consequences, and grow through an RP, and I'm excited to work with writers who are seeking the same!

  The most important thing for me in an RP is that my partners and I enjoy the process, because this is a hobby, it should be fun!
  
  I'm a 33 year old high school teacher, so I try not to roleplay 1x1 with minors. It's just not something I'm totally comfortable with. I'm sorry if that's exclusive, but it's a safe boundary for all of us. Please feel free to reach out if you are 18+ (in all honesty, the closer you are to 25-35 the better we will likely match in terms of interests and experience.)
  
  I exclusively work in threads, but I'm definitely down to OOC and plan in PMs.
  
  I have a fair bit of writing experience, so I will likely post between 250 and 750 words on average. If it calls for it I can go as high as 1000 but that is rare. I will ask for a writing sample just to see if we are compatible writers unless we have written together in the past.
  
  I tend to try to adjust my writing to accommodate my writing partner and their ability, but I do prefer not to participate in a one liner RP.
  
  I have a full time job that requires some of my home time occasionally so I may not always respond right away, but I do try to update a thread once or twice a day if I am able during the week. I can be more active on the weekends if I am not occupied. Basically, If my partner is posting, I'll do my best to post back within the day.
  
  I want to work with you on our story. I'm perfectly fine with coming up with ideas (in fact I enjoy it), but it helps me if you also have input.

  I generally don't roleplay fandoms. I prefer to come up with my own worlds and settings. I often draw inspiration from properties that I am interested in, but I like to have to freedom to reimagine elements of the world to suit the story I want to tell, rather than be limited to an existing IP.
  
  
  Spoiler: The Betrayal

  The Story
  Alvar Wurnol, the King of Bremmerlund, is dead. The iron crown of the hard cold northern kingdom now falls to his eldest son, Ethred, who is every bit the hardened and cruel man that his father was, but filled with a burning ambition. He sees Bremmerlund, with its stony wastelands, and rugged pine forests, as a kingdom fit for only the unambitious and weak, and he sets his eyes on the neighboring kingdom of Galt, a land with access to the sea and rich in gold, trade goods, and profitable land.
  
  Galt is poised to seize the power position in the region, and, if not for their dependence on Bremmerlundian iron, there would be little to prevent it. Should they form a military alliance with the southern nation of Lyria, Bremmerfel would find itself at the mercy of a considerable power.
  
  Ethred knows that securing an alliance with Lyria is of paramount importance, but his hunger for real dominance will not be satisfied by security. He needs cause to muster forces to invade Galt, and, though he has a dominant position in the construction of arms, he will need the might of the Lyrian lords and their vassal knights and conscripts to take his side in the conflict.
  
  He will need to force Lyria's hand and leave them with no choice but to join in a conflict with Galt. To do this, he devises a sinister plot.
  
  
  The Plot
  Ethred has one sibling (male or female, its up to you!) his younger by 7 years who is eligible for marriage. He offers the prince(or princess) of Lyria, his younger sibling as a spouse, under the pretense of strengthening the good will between the nations. The younger sibling will be escorted to the Lyrian court by a small and highly mobile retinue of soldiers. In the meantime, he lays a trap. He will send assassins in the livery of Lyria to waylay the sibling's coach and kill both them and their retinue. Leaving behind evidence of Lyrian treachery. Of course, when Lyria denies involvement, Ethred will agree with them, and claim his spies found evidence of a Galtish plot to upend their alliance. It was Galt the whole time! If the King of Lyria believes the evidence, he will have no choice but to ride to war with Galt in an alliance with Ethred and the Bremmerlundian forces.
  
  
  The Characters
  You will play as the young princess or prince, and I will play as a veteran soldier who has served as their personal guard since they were born. Through sheer luck or fate, we will manage to evade the assassins and find ourselves on the run from Ethred's pursuit. Will we be able to expose the plot before Ethred drags three nations into bloody war?
  
  On the journey, the old soldier and his young charge will have to watch each others' back, master combat, and face treachery and spies at every turn.
  
  I am looking for a relatively advanced writer who is willing to take on the role of a young prince or princess, betrayed by their family and ready to help craft the story!
  I will ask for a writing sample just to see if we are compatible writers unless we have written together in the past.
  
  
  Spoiler: The Refugee

  In a Star Wars like galaxy far away, a young refugee of an opressed minority group charters a disreputable freighter pilot to transport them across a demarkated stretch of space patrolled by the enemies of his or her people.
