Emmyth sat back in his chase lounge, his eyes scanning the pages of his book as he listened to Kuuvin's ramblings about his unrequited love for Zuliz-Row. Though he tried to ignore the other man's drama, a faint hint of disapproval tugged at the top of his lip. Was this truly how Kuuvin expressed his love? With grandiose gestures and childish boasts?

He closed his book with a soft thud, holding his place with a careful finger as he watched Kuuvin pace around the parlor. The words that spilled from the other man's mouth seemed hollow and self-centered, lacking the depth and care that true love demanded. Emmyth's annoyance was palpable as he spoke, his tone conveying a biting sarcasm, "What madness is this? Do you truly believe that Zuliz-Row belongs to you, owes you something? Your prideful childishness is hardly impressive."

The thought of Kuuvin confronting Zuliz-Row with his bravado made Emmyth shake his head in disbelief. The very idea was preposterous, and he had no doubt that it would end with a swift slap to the face. With a deep breath, Emmyth opened his book once more, his eyes settling back onto the pages. "Honestly, Kuuvin,-" He murmured under his breath, "- sometimes you act like a petulant child."

Adonai's eyes slowly opened as he lay prostrate on the ground, his once impenetrable armor reduced to a shamble of dents and cracks. Each inhale was a struggle, as if the weight of the world was bearing down on him, crushing his resolve along with his body. The clamor of the battle swirled around him. The sounds of steel against steel and the cries of the wounded tearing at his ears like claws. The memories of his beloved Anna were whisked away as the sound of war surrounded him once more.

The odds were stacked against him and his compatriots. The enemy horde was closing in and it appeared all hope was lost. But a flicker of light shone deep within Adonai, a spark of courage that refused to be extinguished. He balled his fists, gritting his teeth, his lips moving silently in a prayer to the gods for the strength to endure.

With a ferocious roar that shook the ground beneath him, Adonai began to rise. Each inch of elevation was a battle of its own, every muscle straining against the gravity of his wounds. But the warrior refused to give in to the pain, drawing from a well of inner strength he didn't know he possessed.

His hand trembled as he reached out to reclaim his sword, his fingers closing around the hilt like a death grip. His eyes blazed with determination, a fierce light that pushed back the darkness of defeat. He refused to surrender, refused to allow his enemies the satisfaction of an easy victory.

As Adonai rose to his full height, he stood like a colossus; a monument to the unyielding spirit of the Fharian race. He had faced his inner demons and emerged victorious.

I prefer brief replies of 1-2 paragraphs, but less is fine as long as it gives me something to work with. Longer replies are also acceptable as long as they're not constant novels. My responses are usually 3-5 paragraphs on average. Post length isn't a big issue for me, but it has been in the past.

My experience has taught me that if post length requirements are too relaxed, people will write low-quality responses. If the requirement is too high, people are less likely to engage and respond quickly. I prioritize partners who respond promptly.

I only write in English as I'm not fluent in any other language. However, I'm open to using foreign, alien, fantasy, or made-up languages in the RP, but please provide a translation. While I don't metagame, understanding what your character is saying is important to me. Even if my character doesn't understand, I need to comprehend to respond appropriately.

Good spelling and a basic understanding of vocabulary are necessary for my RP partners. While I don't expect perfect grammar or punctuation, incorrectly used words or incoherent responses can cause me to push out a post that may seem odd. I prefer partners who are generally competent in writing, but it's not necessary for them to be the best writer the internet has ever seen. My main requirement is that I can understand your writing. If I find it difficult to make heads or tails about what you've posted, I will politely leave the RP.

I prefer completely private RPs unless it's a group setting. I use Discord and am happy to set up a server for us. While I don't mind RPing on the website, my job can have horrible internet connection, making it difficult to load websites for 8-14 hours some days. Discord can load text with even a small amount of connection, which is why I prefer it. During long periods without internet, Discord and Wordscapes are my only sources of entertainment.

I'm looking for long-term RP partners to collaborate on world-building and create multiple characters to play with, rather than jumping between different characters and worlds with different people. However, I'm open to doing a short one-off story if you're unsure about our compatibility and want to test the waters before committing to a longer partnership.

I enjoy a combination of fantasy and modern genres in RP's, and I'm open to sci-fi and romance plots, although romance often develops naturally in most RP's. However, if you're looking for a strictly romance-based RP, I may be picky about it since it takes time for me to develop a character. I typically use pre-existing characters, so it may be challenging for me to push them into a role that they weren't designed for.
