Wow, it has been a LONG time since I've done this. Anyway, hi. I'm Princess_Lizard and you can call me Lizzy if you like. I'm 32, I work a varied schedule in retail, am happily married to a wonderful man, and I have been roleplaying in various forms and forums since I was about... 15, I want to guess? Something like that. If you must know, I live in the Southeast U.S. and come from a conservative Christian background. But as per the rules, I will not discuss real world politics or religion unless asked privately.

Most of my recent experience has been on sites more geared towards adults, which ironically seem to draw the most childish people. Between that and feeling pressured to always write adult content, well, I'm over it. So now I'm here looking for less "mature" roleplays and more mature roleplaying partners, and so far this place seems like a good fit. Not that I have utterly sworn off adult rps, but they will be very few and far between for me, and only as the rules allow.

The genres I enjoy most are modern, post apocalyptic, sci-fi, and sci-fan. Sometimes on a lark I enjoy a good psychological or occult story. Romance, what there might be, will always take a back-burner to the story. Always. These days I'd much rather play a story about friendship than love.

As of right now I only have one character up, but I'll post more as I think of them. I'd like to get a feel for the place first and then create as inspiration strikes. Ten characters seems like it will be more than plenty for me. Although I enjoy writing characters to suit a story, I typically stick to a few archetypes that I enjoy playing, so I'll try to make them broad enough to fit in multiple scenarios.

Sophia is a character I resurrected from a very old rp on a long since closed site that used to be my favorite home. I can't even remember the name of it now. The image I borrowed from ye olde interwebz, but the character herself belongs to me. If you're interested in roleplaying with her (although obviously anything beyond PG-13 is 1000% off the table with her) either in robot or goddess form, let me know. I have a whole headcanon about her and her world but I'd be happy to modernize it or completely rewrite it to collab with any writing partner(s).

So, yeah, that's probably everything you need to know about me and then some. I look forward to meeting you and making great stories together.

Thanks! I saw it this time. It's on the main page. Sorry, I know that's not new info to anybody here, but I'm used to getting pop up notifications on site.

Also I am adding a dice roll for absolutely no reason other than to see how it works. I don't even play dice games! XD
rolled 1d6 and got a natural 2.
Welcome to RPR, Lizzy! :D

I tried, but even after enabling notification settings on my phone it still says that it's being blocked. Oh well. I'll just have to keep on top of things.

Also, I posted another character. :) Still no rps though. :(

Thanks!

Now I have two RPs started and one in discussion. I'm pleased with all the great writers I've met so far, and I hope this is the start of a beautiful friendship. Cliché as that is. Thanks again for all the warm welcomes.

Hello, welcome, and salutations!

I am in the same boat as you! I work near constantly so my spare time is few and far between, but otherwise have my duckies in a row. What I have found that I enjoy the most about RPR is the sheer fact that it caters to my schedule so, so much. I tend to literally work my life away so I spend most of my what-little-downtime I have playing in the forum games. It scratches the itch, as it were! You will encounter a variety of opportunities there from time to time, but I think you would also benefit from posting an ad for what you are looking for specificially!

I, myself, tend to mostly play canons which, for some people, are frowned upon, but it is what it is. I also love the modern era premise for role-playing as well. Anyhoo! I wish you the very best of luck and I hope you find what you are looking for. RPR is very relaxed, slow-moving, and easy to navigate, and you will have a lot of space to flesh out your ideas and characters! May you find your muse here.
