"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?

Join a small 3-4 person group RP set in a small town with plenty of world building and romance

Hey everyone,

I’ve done a lot of 1:1 roleplays and I’ve been in some big group servers with 20+ people… but have you ever tried something with only 3-4 players? The kind of RP where you’re fully immersed in the story, you actually know every character, and the world feels alive because you’re building it together instead of getting lost?

I want to world build with a few like-minded people who enjoy collaborative storytelling. We’ll all have a couple of main characters, keep the cast tight, and really dig into the relationships and tension.

I enjoy all kinds of romance and I’m happy to explore a range of tropes. Your IRL gender doesn’t matter to me. All I ask is you willing to build the world with me, open to collaboration and write at least 3-4 paragraphs for reach response.

Setting idea (very open to adjusting):

Willow Creek is a quaint community nestled in the heart of the American Midwest, founded during the pioneer days. Over the years it has grown but remains a small, tight-knit town, insulated from the outside world. To city dwellers it might seem dull, to country folks it’s a slice of paradise.

At the center of the community is the local church, pastored by Nathaniel Hawthorne. A war veteran whose family has deep roots in Willow Creek since the 1800s. As a devoted father of two grown daughters, Nathaniel is increasingly worried about the future of his family and, by extension, the future of their town.

We could portray Pastor Hawthorne’s daughters as main characters. The rest of us could play the main male characters, mostly revolving around the daughters’ love interests. One idea: a city boy who’s dating (or pursuing) the elder daughter. Another: a local “hero” type who’s adored by nearly everyone in town… but who’s a bit more sinister under the surface. I’d love to keep a sense of exciting tension running through the story with other interesting local characters in the mix.

If a small, immersive group RP with room for romance, world building, and character-driven drama sounds good to you, drop a comment or shoot me a message. Looking forward to hearing from you!
