Aerys (played anonymously)

Someone such as Aerys is not likely to be considered attractive, haunted by her past and a distorted self image dictating her behavior around others. She is merely a maid, seeing a future of lifelong servitude because that's all she knows. She has dreams of becoming someone interesting, exploring new hobbies, finding her own talents, but is also terribly afraid of even just considering pursuing those things. That includes love and friendship. They are just distant whispers and secrets to get her through the day.

I'm looking for someone Aerys can interact with. It can be short or long term roleplay. Someone she can admire or long for, someone she can befriend, someone who does not reciprocate her feelings, someone who will become her enemy; I'm open to anything that sounds fun or interesting to you! If there is no interaction left between Aerys and your character, we can close the RP gracefully by having them part ways. I'm extremely flexible, please don't be afraid to discuss these things with me.

Aerys works for a moderately wealthy household at this point in her storyline. She will not be working for your character.

The setting is fantasy with magic in a medieval/victorian-esque time period. Nothing strictly defined, allowing us freedom to create the world as we go along.

Magic is a very defined presence that does not discriminate between genders and races. It will aid the RP to create interesting plots and push the story in unexpected directions.

Please read her profile and offer a character you feel is interesting and a good match. I can never quite make a pick from large character lists. You can PM me or post here, it's all the same to me. :)

It is very important to me that your character has a solid motivation. I truly dislike the concept of having characters waltz in for no reason and sweeping someone off their feet because they can. This means that I think it's awesome your character owns a business or has a profession, but if they don't have plans, schedules, short- and/or long-term goals, have to deal with things not going the way they expect them and adjusting those plans, schedules and goals, then the character will be very boring for me to interact with.

I know this sounds extremely elitist, but I keep running into the issue that Aerys has to put up with someone who wants nothing out of life, just 'does what they want' and does pointless things to fill up the day. It stalls the story and makes me drop from the RP because it stops being fun fast.

If your character lacks these things, then I'll have to politely decline, sorry.
Best person i have to fit the job would be Audric.. weather it be the prince version or the Assassin version.. i don't mind witch, but the Assassin version would give me more to wright =)

Neither a prince or an assassin are really what I'm looking for here, sorry.
Alright, well all my guys are ether princes, not fully developed, only able to use in modern times or there an animal XD .. Well other than my anonymous char who's a spirit.. thanks anyway. Hope we can RP sometime though
I think my Alex might work, the adult Alex. ^_^ He is a strong and smart guy who is very kind for a demon hunter. You can check him out to see if he would work, he doesn't do something 'just 'cause he can'.

I'm sorry, that's not really what I'm looking for either.
Alright. ^_^ I understand.

Perhaps I should clarify. I'm seeking a character who has a regular, settled life. Someone who lives or has moved to the city Aerys is in, or is staying there for business. Someone with an occupation, with responsibilities, bills to pay, possibly a social life. The possibilities are vast. Mundane is a lot of fun and can become much more interesting and fantastical through the development of plot and character. It is what I aim for.

I'm not looking for supernatural/immortal characters with tragic backgrounds that aimlessly wander from place to place and already have obtained numerous powers. I have exhausted these plots in the past decade too often, I'm sorry.

Yes, I realize this is almost hilariously specific and snobbish sounding, but I know what kind of story I'll enjoy most with Aerys. I'm hoping I will get an offer that gives me what I look for. I truly hate turning people down or feeling like my requests are not taken into consideration.
Pelagia (played anonymously)

Hey! Maaaaybe I could try? Pela's pretty stationary, but still has no real ambitions other than becoming something revered and loved. Popular, in a sense, but only for the feats she'd accomplished. She's trying to overcompensate for her insecurities by searching for grand adventures to partake in so, in the case she succeeds, her awkward, sorta deformed appearance wouldn't influence peoples' relationships with her, or that she'd still be taken seriously. ...Currently, she's saving up her funds to go on said adventure. She also has absolutely noooo idea what that'd be.

(She might be afraid of being fried calamari shh.)

I'd not be too sure how to get things started, but I'd be more than happy to work with you on it. :D.
