Roleplay is a very spooky hobby, full of ghosts and dead RPs. Ideas that had some promise fall by the wayside... But that promise lives on through dark and depraved NECROMANCY
... Which is just a way for me to say I was stewing a bit on old ideas that I wish had panned out and felt like giving some of them another go. Here, then, in this idea graveyard I'm going to throw some of those concepts out there - ones that were fun and had promise but sputtered off after only just starting - and see if maybe they seem fun to somebody else too?
Before getting to that here's a bit about myself and what I'm looking for:
~~ About Me ~~
â– I'm very friendly and I love to chat OOC - in fact, I almost want to list OOC chat as a requirement but I won't go that far. I'm just very chatty and personable! If you want to add me on Discord to plot, chat, or whatever I'm happy to do it there or stick to PMs.
â– I prefer to RP with partners who are 18+, since I am personally
â– My posts are usually 3+ paragraphs. The shorter the reply, though, the more often I can reply back - I also tend to get pretty invested in stories I love... nothing makes me happier than rapid-fire responses back and forth that maintain quality
â– I usually play a cast of characters. Friends, enemies, neutral, one-off and recurring. It all helps to build out the world
â– I prefer MxF pairings but can play either role. I'm just as comfortable writing male as female
~~ What I'm Looking For ~~
â– Write in third person past-tense, and be able to give me at least 2-3 readable paragraphs. Write with some detail. If I can't understand a reply I have a hard time replying back, so while I don't care too much about typos or grammar errors if they get to be too much it makes things difficult
â– Be able to handle occasional darker plots and subject matter. If you have any triggers we can discuss that beforehand and avoid them but I love writing with darker themes and almost always include them
â– Actively help with the plot. I love building a collaborative story or I wouldn't be RPing!
Now, let's start digging up some graves. I am going to organize these in a pretty simple method: Setting first (hint: fantasy of some kind), pairing second, and then some "keywords" for the type of story it is. Check out whichever ones interest you, and keep in mind that none of this is set in stone! Anything can be changed. Also if you've got your own "dead" RP idea that you want to send my way... if it has fantasy elements then I'll probably be interested.
Three for now but I'll add/remove things over time. I'm leaving these as pretty vague since I'm not trying to write the same story again, I just think the underlying plots had promise.

It was a surprise to everyone when magic found its way into the world. Just as the industrial revolution had come into full swing, the veil that kept magic hidden was ripped aside - all of the things of legend became real, tangible, and exploitable. In the few hundred years since it first came into being... it was entirely subjugated.
Magical creatures once common were now so rare they may have never really existed at all. All humans with magical talent were pulled into a central government and trained to serve the system. Any potential revolution and attempt to shake up the system was always put down. One magical creature, at the heart of that government, grew tired of being exploited and finally made its escape. By coincidence they are found by someone who used to actively hunt all of the magic in this world for the central power the creature was trying to get away from.

The world is separated into many human kingdoms, all ruled by royal families of benevolent Dragons. Nigh-immortal, they have used their extended lifespans to guide the world towards true prosperity. War is no longer a taking place with diplomacy always winning out, hunger is a thing of the past, and the most that a typical human subject has to worry about is the doldrums of their day-to-day life.
It is tradition for ruling Dragons to take on human consorts as their queen/king to rule beside them to ensure that humanity is always part of the equation, and it is also customary for their offspring to be married away and form political ties. Peace comes at a cost too, after all.
Under it all, however, there a far more sinister side to the world...
A prince/princess from one of the royal families, a half dragon themself, is on their way from the capital city to meet their betrothed when their escort is ambushed by a dragon far larger and more powerful than should be possible. One that had never been seen before that day. It whisks the prince/princess away to who knows where...

This one is the least developed in terms of a 'starting point'. It's more a pairing than anything else.
A fae/elf/spirit/whatever gets banished from their homeforest and finds themself in an unknown wilds, in an unknown world, knowing nothing about it. Before they can get themself into too much trouble a werewolf comes along (having recognized their scent) and takes them under its wing. Cue many, many adventures together as the bond between them grows and the werewolf teaches them about this world... and how much this world hates them both.
