Lucyfer
I made something that'll love me even when I won't
Done on mobile so forgive any errors, lol.
New interest, if it vibes, read the rules.
Armored Core 6 has stolen my life and also given me a new idea. Admittedly, it's one I've played with (and am currently playing with in a session of Lancer), and it's Mercenaries.
Stay with me.
I want an RP that plays with a group of mercenaries, ideally sci-fi, but I'm open to fantasy. I just don't want to deal with real world politics and corporations.
But I do want to deal with corporations.
Politics.
Individuals.
Shady as shit, "nothing personal" jobs where you work for one corporation on Tuesday and backstab them on Friday because their rival paid better.
I want to deal with the relationships that develop through working with these groups. I want to deal with the personal relationships in the mercenary group.
I want beloved characters to die and I want the story to force the decision: for money or the greater good?
And I don't care if they go evil. I expect some will, and I expect it'll be a splitting moment of delicious conflict.
So ideally, I'm looking for a story taking place on a world that has SOMETHING worth fighting over to various parties. We can discuss what that is. We'll have corporations, planet residents, mercenaries (the main group and likely rivals), criminals taking advantage, government organizations, and anything else we can make stick.
I know for a fact I want to play a mercenary leader.
I know I ALSO want to play across a "handler" – think like an actor's manager. They get the job. The mercenaries themselves may have limited say in it unless they want to cut ties and appoint someone else to the position. Also willing to consider not exactly a handler, but a Mercenary Organizer with one of the main groups – so someone who deals with the BS of hiring mercs.
This isn't a traditional doubling RP, it is very much focused on a cast of characters that rise and fall in importance. However, I do want the angst of romance in all of this, so that's why I'm mentioning that want, even if the handler isn't as heavily or as involved at all times.
Very willing to work with you, as well, to create the dynamics of character interactions you want to see, so if this sounds like your bag, hit me up!
New interest, if it vibes, read the rules.
1. Don't God-Mod. In other words, don't make my character speak, don't make my character take damage, and don't control my character. If you want something to go a certain way for plot purposes, just PM me and ask. Usually, I accept "god-modding" during travel and the like. It is usually acceptable to assume movement if a character is already committed to the journey.
2. Please be able to play all genders, and play multiple roles. Your main character(s) may be just male or just female, but I expect all the side characters and NPCs to have life and flavor, too.
3. I always double regardless of pairings involved, so you are also expected to double.
4. On the note of characters: I will always play one female character. So, be aware of that. I'm open to all pairing types, and have enjoyed all, so come at me with what you want!
5. I only RP on threads, (or GDocs in rare cases; you’ll have to convince me because I hate cluttering it up), so no PM, kik, discord, e-mail, or other rps with me. So that I know you’ve read the rules this far, please tell me something interesting you’ve read/watched recently!
6. Please be able to write more than a couple of sentences as responses to me. I have tried to do “simple” RPs, but I end up not feeling motivated to respond or continue the RP. I will need you to be able to write a paragraph or two, each post, at least.
7. PM if you are interested. The only reason for you not to PM me is if you cannot do so due to the fact you haven't reached 24 hours/10 posts.
Guidelines:
1. I do not like to be hassled for posts. Especially if I have already posted that day or the day before. Do not bother me for posts until at least two days have passed. Otherwise, I will start to resent our RP and lose interest in it.
2. I enjoy OOC talk, however I will not respond to "hi" or "-poke-" or equivalents. Have substance to the chatter, even if it just asking "How are you?".
3. Do not bump our thread, or do anything OOC in the IC thread. I will not post out of spite. I have a problem with this, I acknowledge it, I'm not fixing it.
4. On that matter, please keep OOC to PMs and not on our IC thread. IC is for posting. If you have a question, concern, or comment, just shoot me a PM.
5. In general, I do not enjoy immediate romances or "slice-of-life" RPs, so do not come to me expecting I'll do either. I do want romance in 9 out of 10 cases, though. I may make rare exceptions.
