N O R T H E R N E R S // post-apocalyptic cowboys and vikings

"If Red Dead Redemption, The Revenant and Yellowstone had a post-apocalyptic child..."

survival • family saga • arranged marriages • frontier • action • drama • mercenaries • refurbished settlements • wilderness • politics • found family • rescue missions • complex relationships • dangerous alliances • this is a 21+ roleplay!

>The world ended. We kept moving.

>While others fought over ruins swallowed by the Bloom, the Northerners escaped the changed nature and followed the old migration routes north, chasing arctic wind, game trails and places where the world still remembered what it used to be. Every spring the Convoy rolls again. Trucks, snowmobiles and working dogs, leaving their families, children, hunters and protectors with enough food to survive another harsh winter.

>They're no longer raiders like they had to be in the first years after the Fall. They’re settlers, defenders, and traders. Rescuers when Family or honor calls. They build communities, marry strangers into kin, raise orphaned children beside their own and disappear into the northern wilderness before anyone can truly understand how many of them there are.

>Some say they're descendants of criminals. Others swear they're the last real frontier people left alive. It’s twelve years since the world ended and all they’re trying to do is revive old traditions while rejecting old grudges.

A FAMILY YOU CHOOSE

WORKING DOGS, ARMED CONVOY & NORTHERN FRONTIER

MORALLY GRAY SURVIVORS, NOT HEROES

SMALL-TOWN AMERICA MEETS MODERN VIKINGS

WINTERS THAT TRY TO KILL YOU. SUMMERS WORTH FIGHTING FOR.

INTERESTED? DM ME!

Are you a sheriff, trapper, bush pilot, prison convict, prepper, logger, mechanic, dog handler, storm chaser, hockey player, carpenter, activist, hunter or one of dozens of other people who discovered that surviving the end of the world is only as difficult as building a family?

Marvel landscape, Memory Wipe

Looking for a small group for a literary RP. The landscape is set in marvel but there is a mass memory wipe and a very small amount of characters are restricted. This is not a romance based RP it’s suppose to be very “game of thrones” like in politics with people running different regions. There is lore but I’m looking for a group of 20 at the max. If more people join the better.

I said it’s not a romance based RP but that doesn’t mean that it’s excluding it entirely, I just prefer it to happen organically rather than going in with the intention.

I have Mr Sinister taken as a character and there is Ghost Rider taken as well so far, if you’re a fan of marvel whether it’s MCU or Comics this RP is completely friendly to those who are familiar with comics and new.

For those of you who ARE familiar, the setting is in Battleworld 2015

Some characters are restricted but there is the rest of the marvel mythos to pull your character out of or create an original one yourself.

[MpA4A] Searching for Torturously-Slow Burning Historical Romances

Hi there! I’m looking for a writing partner who, like myself, is enthused by both historical settings and torturous slow burns — and I do mean torturous, like, tens, if not hundreds of thousands of words before a realisation of feelings, freak outs over the slightest touch of fingers, and God forbid the reaction when they finally kiss. I adore dwelling in the yearning, in the interiority of our characters and whatever side characters we decide are necessary to tell our story.

As a writer, I tend to be pretty literate — and would ask for a writing sample or two before moving onwards to the writing phase itself, and would gladly be willing to provide one or two of my own. I put a high value, as mentioned, on character interiority, so a sample that demonstrates your capacity to write such a thing would be highly appreciated!

Moving on to what kind of story I’d like to write — I am sooo open to hearing whatever you have to pitch/pitching my own ideas, for which I often feel like an endless font. Genuinely, I’ve only been writing for a couple years, but I adore coming up with a ton of ideas for new stories, so I’ve got plenty in mind, with some of my absolute favourite tropes below:

  • age gaps (older man x younger woman in particular)
  • slow burns (I'm talking a hundred thousand words before the first kiss-level slow burns)
  • forbidden relationships (soooo many ways to do this, feel free to ask!)
  • religious guilt (Catholic guilt, my beloved)
  • class differences (when there are money troubles...)
  • royalty (i love crowns and fashion and succession conflicts)
  • priests (priests falling in love, my other beloved)
  • ward x guardian (when the relationship changes to lovers ... my third beloved)
  • political intrigue (please let me make up a political system for you!!)
  • cheating (never let your wife stop you from meeting your soulmate)

A tiny bit more about me as a writer as well, just so you might be able to better determine our compatibility before reaching out:

  • Writes, at minimum, 2000+ characters per reply. This is my absolute minimum, though even in a lower-lit style, I'll usually end up around the 2600 or 2700 mark. I also adore stories where I have to stretch myself, and if you regularly put out replies in the 5-6000+ range, I am more than capable of matching anything up to 10k, and will adore you for it!
  • Loves big worlds; I love introducing side characters, talking about locations and maps and family trees, and all those attendant details, letter-writing and more, and would love partners who value them as well.
  • OOC chatter — I love making friends with writing partners, chatting about life and our RP, so if you're up for that, I think we'd be great partners.
  • Reply speed: I tend to be capable of a reply every other day, but can sometimes stretch out longer, or find myself replying more often. I’m fine with whatever schedule you have, as long as it gets in one or two replies a week. If there’s a stretch longer than that where one of us is unable to reply, communication works wonders to get through that!

If any of this interests you, please do reach out to me, I am so so so eager to meet other writers who adore the same things as me!

[1x1][Discord][Fantasy/Romance] Long-term Fantasy Worldbuilding and/or ASOIAF-inspired Romance

Hello. First and foremost, if you use AI then there’s really no point in you reading further here. I want to collaborate with a person, not a bot! Please don’t reach out if you don’t intend to write your own posts.

Anyway. Hi! My name is René, I’m 30, my pronouns are they/them, my timezone is GMT, and I’ve been roleplaying online since I was 11. I also play a lot of TTRPGs and run some of my own games. I love collaborating with others and I really love building worlds with other people. I write in the third person, and I enjoy rich storytelling so ideally I’m looking for people that favour detail in their roleplay posts. 

Right now I’m on a big A Song of Ice and Fire kick. Westeros contains some of my favourite fictional characters and favourite pieces of fantasy worldbuilding. If you’re interested in Westeros, I do actually have quite a few characters I’d love to use if you wanted to do a roleplay in that setting. If not? That’s good too! 

I am looking for someone who:

  • Is close to me in age. I’d rather roleplay with people who are 25+ since I’m 30!
  • Writes in the third person and is capable of literate and/or novella posts. 
  • Enjoys worldbuilding and is capable of creating whole countries and families.
  • Is open to exploring a variety of characters and dynamics.
  • Creates varied characters of different personalities rather than sticking to the same archetype.
  • Genuinely cares about their rp partner’s characters and gets invested in the story.
  • Doesn’t really care about faceclaims. I don’t mind if you want to use them, but I find them very limiting when creating characters myself. 
  • Doesn’t have a history of ghosting people.

 

Essentially I’d like to find someone who wants to build a world with me, and I’d love for us to have numerous characters and plotlines over time. 

Some ideas I’m interested in right now:

  • A political marriage between rival families or rival throne claimants.
  • Prince/Princess or King/Queen x knight or jester. 
  • Rebellious princess being sent to ward in a different kingdom by her exasperated mother. 
  • Scheming courtly politics and intrigue. 
  • Highborn x Lowborn.
  • Knights and tourneys. 
  • Dragonriders.
  • Magic. Bonus points for ancient, wealthy magical dynasties.

 

Hopefully all of this makes sense! Basically I’m just itching for a long-term fantasy roleplay with someone who likes to worldbuild and who would enjoy fleshing out a cast of characters within that world. Equally, I’d be so down for some ASoIaF roleplay! If Westeros is what you’re interested, you neeeed to tell me your favourite characters though. I’m ride or die for Theon Greyjoy, and I’ll say right now that I’ve been an Aegon II Targaryen supporter since day one. 

Westeros roleplay I’d be interested in:

  • Bracken x Blackwood. Obviously. 
  • Targaryen OCs or dragonseeds during the Dance of the Dragons. 
  • Rival knights. It’s a classic for a reason. 
  • Literally anything set during the canon events of the series.

For myself, I’d likely make OCs belonging to/associated with Houses Bolton, Bracken, Cassel, Celtigar, Clegane, Dondarrian, Florent, Greyjoy, Hightower, Lannister, Manderly, Reed, Royce, Strong, or Targaryen. 

I’m open to the possibility of canon characters as well, though it truly depends on who they are and what you’d have in mind. I’d prefer for our OCs to take centre stage but I’m flexible. 

Regarding character gender, I enjoy playing all genders. If you’re someone who only plays one gender, I’m not sure if we’d necessarily be a good fit unless you’re okay with exploring LGBT relationships too! I like MxM, FxF, and MxF equally. So long as the dynamic is interesting, I’m happy. Just please don’t pigeonhole me into playing only one type of character.

This is getting very long so I’ll stop yapping now, but I hope all of this made sense! If you’re interested in anything I’ve said, please send me a DM with your age, name, etc and let me know what it is that you’re interested in exploring.
