Basically what the title says, I want to Rp with someone who does more than 2-3 sentence long responses. Anyone interested??

I'm finally ready to start fleshing out my original book amd want to get better at writing in a way that people understand.

Theo disdained the ocean. Once, he used to revel in its wonders, captivated by the myriad of sights it offered. However, the novelty had worn thin overtime, leaving him disenchanted and bored out of his mind with the deep blue sea. As his kingdom's citizens celebrated his birthday around him, exchanging seashells and pearls from distant seas, Theo remained afloat, indifferent to the festivities. Despite the privileges of being a prince, he found little joy in the title.

The merfolk around him seemed oblivious to the merman in question. In theory, a royal celebration was meant to be a kingdom-wide affair, but Theo sensed the lack of genuine interest. To please his overbearing father, he reluctantly agreed to stay briefly, then skillfully slipped away unnoticed.

With his fins propelling him intensely, heart pounding, and gills rapidly opening and closing, Theo navigated towards the one place he longed to be — land. The surface fascinated him endlessly, providing a sense of vitality that the ocean depths and the palace failed to deliver. For any merfolk, breaching the ocean's surface was strictly forbidden, punishable by imprisonment. Theo, however, enjoyed a peculiar exception; his transgressions led only to stern lectures from his father and a temporary banishment within the palace walls — which had been a form of imprisonment in itself.

Emerging into the soft rays of sunlight, Theo changed pace and direction, swimming upward. Using his webbed fingers, he grasped onto the familiar rock where he would perch, squinting as sunlight met his eyes. It had been a month since his last visit — thanks to what he thought was a clever escape before his brothers inadvertently exposed his secret to his father. Weeks within the palace was ensued, prompting him to take a hiatus from his explorations to avoid suspicion.

Pulling his body onto the wet rock, his tail splashing against it, Theo shifted forward in anticipation. His gaze scanned the horizon, hopeful for the sight of sailboats, swimmers, birds — anything that would break the monotony of his bound existence beneath the waves.

Yes, I think I have a couple of old ideas. I'll list a few.

  • Two strangers unexpectedly cross paths and must work together to transport a child from point A to point B. Along the way, they could face challenges that test their ability to cooperate and trust one another (could be in any setting really. sci fi/ fantasy was something I imagined for this one)

  • Two rivals, either academically or at work, are forced to stick together after a massive explosion wipes out most of the people around them, turning the victims into zombie-like violent creatures.

  • Two friends who are spending Halloween night out end up exploring the woods out of curiosity, but soon stumble into the beautiful yet dangerous world of the fae.

@StarkSpangledMayflower_Mad_Elder

i love the first one but I think we would need a third for it. The second sounds fun, I've not had much experience with Sci-Fi Rps. The third one sounds intriguing! Maybe one of them believes in the Fae while the other doesn't

@Chillicheesey language

Oooh yes! I definitely agree on the first one. But as for the other two, I'm very indecisive on which one I like more so I'm good with whatever. But for the third one, that could work!

@Chillicheesey language

Ok, in that case we can always combine them both! Maybe the characters could still be rivals and while they're out on some sort of work/university trip, they both unexpectedly find themselves lost in the woods and later find out that they're both trapped in the world of the fae.

Name: Eleanor Ajax Valdez (Nell)
Age: 24
Gender: Female
Romantic Orientation: Mostly straight but open to experimenting
Appearance: Eleanor has warm-toned tan skin. She has freckles dotting her upper cheekbones and across her nose. They tend to blend in with her summer skin tone and show up a little better on her winter skin tone. Her eyes have a light brown inner ring with a green outer ring. She thought they were hazel but her doctor said that it was central heterochromia and she's been pretty proud of them since. Nell's hair is a deep brown colour, Her friends joke that she has light black hair. It's curly and reaches just below her hips when wet and roughly mid-back when dried and styled. Nell often pulls her hair up as she doesn't like it getting in her face when she works. She stands at about 5'5", and has a slim, athletic figure (Years of dance as a kid). Refrence Images
Basic Traits: Eleanor is a pretty social girl. She enjoys meeting new people and talking but hates having her boundaries crossed. She likes to set her limits when she meets new people and the more they try to cross them, the less she will humour them. Nell loves to listen to music, often having a pair of headphones or earbuds on her, around her neck, or in her bag. While it may seem like she would hate her name, Nell doesn't have a preference for how she is called so long as it is respectful. With anyone who might cross her boundaries, she will not allow them the opportunity to use her chosen nicknames. Eleanor adores her parents and family is a big part of who she is. Anyone who she trusts and can rely on is family to her.

Background: Nell was born to a Spanish Father and a British Mother. Her parents met when her mother visited Spain with her family on vacation. There she met her father and both chose to stay in touch even after she left, writing back and forth. Nell's mother was offered a chance to go to Spain with her university for a 2-year internship and was accepted immediately. While there, she got closer to Nell's father and began a relationship with him which eventually ended up in their marriage. Nell came along shortly after. While her Father chose her name, Eleanor's mother chose her middle name after her own father. Nell's family stayed in Spain for about 12 years, she grew up surrounded by her paternal family and often had visits to England to meet her maternal family. Her mother wanted her to become a dancer like she was and so Nell chose to take Ballet classes and did Gymnastics as well. Around the age of 12, her family moved from Spain for her parents' work. Nell found it a little difficult to adjust, having been surrounded by people her whole life, she went into a depression. The longer she spent in the new place, the more comfortable she became. It was certainly helpful when she made some really great friends.
Weapons: After taking gymnastics as a child, Nell took varying martial arts classes. She is skilled with staff based martial arts.

(Extra)
Likes: dancing, studying, reading, horses, cats
Dislikes: spiders, being cold, jello, Being anything less than satisfactory
Favourite Colour: Dark green and dark grey
Usual Fashion: Nell doesn't really have a set style. She usually dresses up in Dark Academia but her overall aesthetic can be soft dark. As an example, her current favourite outfit is a pair of grey/black plaid trousers with black leather suspenders hooked in the belt loops, a black low-neck shirt with butterfly sleeves, silver rings, a metal watch with straps shaped like dolphins, a few varied earrings, ankle boots with colourful socks. She enjoys carrying courses and bags so she often has an accessory of this kind.
Distinguishing Marks: Various tattoos all over her body. Her favourites are a Fairy ring on her thigh, a pomegrante on her shoulder, a dragon on her left forearm and a special date on her neck.

I think something environmental or science related that'll give them some reason as to why they're in the woods in the first place. Like my character would be an ecology major with a minor in biology. And I'm also ready to start! I'll go ahead and put my starter up either tonight or sometime tomorrow if you want me to start.

@StarkSpangledMayflower_Mad_Elder

I think I'll have my character be a biology major with a minor in like toxicology. I can probably post a starter tonight or tomorrow, I'm watching a C-Drama right now lol.

I'm thinking they start either in the forest or in the classroom, what about you?
