The neon lights and loud music of Karizma were enticing to most, looking for a night of chrome-covered sin and laughter. Scout sat in a shadowy bar booth, tucked against the wall and nursing an injured side. A blade stayed sheathed and strapped against her back, a pistol on her hip, and a suspicious gaze in her eyes. At least thirty-seven threats. Four exits. Most of the threats were in some way inebriated, which lowered the danger in some ways. Every detail of the bar scene was etched into her minds eye, a lifelong practice that kept her alive.

A man slid into the booth across from her, an easy smile on his face. He acted casual, relaxed, but much like her, his eyes sought out the danger in the room. “It’s good to see you again.”

Scout stared at him, then slid her hand across the table, leaving a datashard in front of him. He quickly covered it with his own hand and pocketed it. “Take me to your boss.” Her words were calculated, chosen with care.

“You sure you want to do this?” The man leaned back against the booth. “I could help you just disappear.”

It was tempting, the offer he made, but Scout had already made up her mind. After ruining an operation on purpose to save a street gang she had no loyalty to, all because she saw someone she once knew-the man now sitting across from her-her life was in shambles. From prestigious corporate assassin to blacklisted. No home, no assets, no contacts. Everything was gone, in one single decision, and she had nothing left.

Except him.

She found him, days later, and argued that he owed her. Something. Anything. If she could secure a datatshard to prove she had defected, then he would take her to his boss, the leader of one of the local street gangs. There, she might find a new life, and a new purpose with it.

Her silence at his comment was all the answer he needed. “Okay… let’s go.”

Hello! I come to you today seeking a specific storyline. I hope my starter gave you a decent teaser into my writing style. I write in third person, past tense, and I’m very descriptive. The setting is “generic Cyberpunk”. We can come up with unique world builds for this, or just follow the ever popular Cyberpunk 2077 world, either is good with me.

This story follows my character, “Scout”, a woman with a complicated past (that I’d like to reveal over the course of the roleplay) who was raised to be a perfect, living weapon for the corporations in this Cyberpunk world. Good with a gun, but deadly with a blade. A proud corporate assassin, Scout has never strayed from her job, and is very good at compartmentalizing it all, until something happens on an op and she lies to her corporate squad, protecting the enemy, which happens to be this street gang. This gets her immediately blacklisted, loosing access to everything in her life up to this point. With nowhere else to go, and nothing left, she decides to try and join this gang.

That’s where you come in. I’m not seeking someone to play the person from her past mentioned in the above starter. I’m actually seeking someone to play the leader of the street gang. How you characterize him is largely up to you. Is he cruel and cunning? Ruthless but warm? the important parts are his willingness to help Scout deprogram and find her spot in this gang, and his fierce protectiveness of his ‘family’. He may not trust her at first, but ultimately, she will find a spot here just like anyone else. This is intended to eventually be a romantic Roleplay along with plenty of action.

I want to play with themes of identity crisis, morals versus corporate rulings, found family, and fierce loyalty. I’m also smut friendly, when the two characters eventually reach that point in their relationship.

Please message me if this interests you! If you’ve messaged me in the past for a different prompt, feel free to message again!

The ocean waves pounded against the ship as the waters churned, accompanied by a darkening sky. A storm grew ever closer to breaking, but that was the furthest concern on Claire’s mind. Above deck, boots thundered across the wooden planks, shouting voices filling any silent space left. Claire cowered in a storage room below deck, shaking in her stolen boots. What should have been a simple voyage on a merchants ship turned into a nightmare within the early morning hours about a week into the journey. Pirates boarded the ship she traveled on, and in her panic, she stole men’s clothes and disguised herself as a young man. The oversized shirt hung off her, the boots just barely too large. A hat sat snugly on her head, her red hair tucked up into it.

Her mother warned her of pirates. Traveling alone as a woman was dangerous for plenty of reason, but pirates were the top of her list. The stories she heard, from sailors who survived attacks and from her mother’s imagination, gave her the idea to dress like a man. Perhaps if she was thought to be a man, they would not pay her any attention. Perhaps she could lie her way to safety, perhaps they would treat her differently than they would a woman captured. All these thoughts ran circles in Claire’s mind as she hid in the dark storage room, listening to the sounds of struggle above.

Eventually, things quieted down, but a new sound reached her ears: the steady footfall of someone walking below deck, checking the rooms for hidden passengers and crew, or for cargo to loot. Claire squeezed her eyes shut, whispering to herself, “Just a cabin boy. Just a cabin boy.” The lie already a mantra of her survival.

———————————————

Do I have your attention? Good.

This is a character-driven story following my character, Claire Lancaster, a merchants daughter on a voyage for her father’s business. In an attempt to survive a pirate boarding, she disguises herself as a boy, hoping her soft features will make her seem young, and not feminine.

The basic story is her trying to hide her identity and survive on the pirate ship until they next reach a port, where she will then try to leave. Long term, Claire will discover an enjoyment of the freedom this life gives her, grow closer to the captain, prove her mettle over time, and decide she wants to stay. I have various story beats in my head to help move the story along, and give the characters lots of space to react. I don’t have a grand adventure planned, but we can plan that part together! I’m looking for this to develop into a darker romance between my character and yours, full of tension, obsession and possessive nature over her, and a cat and mouse game that turns into much more. I’m smut-friendly, hence the NSFW tag, but that is not the only focus. I like a good story split.

I’m looking for someone to play the pirate captain. In particular, I want this pirate captain to be dark, ruthless, possessive. Someone who enjoys the hunt as much as the kill, who likes to play games with people and push them to see how they’ll fold. Cunning and suave. Ideally, I don’t want him to see through Claire’s disguise right away. He can be suspicious, but doesn’t know just yet. This can lead to putting her in situations that slowly prove his suspicions, and how he reacts to the truth… well, that’s kind of up to you.

A lot of this can be discussed and adjusted, I’m more than willing to hear your ideas and thoughts on it all. I’m also happy to share some of the story beats I have in mind so you can see where I’m heading with this. Shoot me a message if this is something you’d like to pursue! If we’ve talked in the past, feel free to message again!

Quick bit about myself: I am 27 and have been roleplaying for the better part of a decade in many different forms. I consider myself to be detailed, writing a few paragraphs at a time. I have a busy life but I can promise to keep you in the loop as far as my responses go. Some days it’s more frequent, others it’s less. I write in third person, and I’ve always been most interested in character driven plots.
