"You know, the world could always use more heroes..."
Hello again! ♥
Well, I said I would make a couple of roleplay requests in this forum, and here's the first one: Overwatch!
This videogame, I have to say, has taken my life in so many ways. I play it everytime I can! It's so fun and entertaining! But besides that, I also think that surrounding the game, there is already a really well-elaborated and solid lore surrounding the plot of the game and the characters, something that, I think it is one of my favorite qualities of it. And with a really elaborated and lovely lore like this, now I have an urgent urge to roleplay this!
So, how about a roleplay? Are you as excited as I am? Let's do this! But hey, make sure to go through my roleplay rules first! I know, it's a bummer, but it's important! Go! Reading them won't take you more than 15 minutes c:
[Hey, pssst: If you're interested in something else, I have a roleplay request for the 2016 Ghostbusters movie open as well. Click here to see the thread!]
-----------------------------
-----------------------------
1. Grammar and spelling:
-----------------------------
I understand that oftenly we can make some ‘typos’, or that in various cases, English is NOT a main language for some, and it can be a HUGE struggle to us sometimes. Don't worry, I won't make a fuzz over a mistake you may have not seen, but all I ask is at least to apply the basic spelling and grammar rules in the roleplay, like capitalization or punctuation. I'll assume that if you're a native speaker, you know how to type and write properly c:
Now, as not a native speaker myself, I request from you that you have a bit of patience with me when it comes for spelling, grammar and ortography things. I promise I write the best I can from my knowledge in the language, and I also proof-read and spell-check all my writings before sending them, but still, ortographic horrors might happen from once in a while. Be warned!
As in for other things; Text talk? NO, thank you. I won't take you seriously if you roleplay (Or generally type) in text speech or shorten any words. I also WON’T roleplay with people that αρρℓч ωαч тσσ мυcн sчмвσℓs when writing. It looks pretty, I agree, but it’s not the proper way of writing when it’s meant to roleplay.
-----------------------------
2. Text formatting:
-----------------------------
Personally, I like to write in paragraph form, third person. I don’t mind if you use first person for writing, however, I would appreciate if you wrote in paragraph form as well. And while I don't ask you to be a pro at writing (none here is, neither am I), I still would prefer it if you kept some level of literacy when typing.
While I use it at times, I don't really like script roleplay for formal roleplays like these. For something quick, maybe, but not for something that I'm intending on making a long-term activity. Let me tell you also, I HATE one-liners. They leave me wishing for a lot more, and they tend to get boring. Please, take your time to write more. My roleplays tend to be REALLY long of length (3+ long paragraphs), I love to write a lot! But if you don't, I won't pressure you too much. I can adapt myself easily to different kinds of roleplays. In that case, I ask you to write at least 6-10 lines, more if you wish, but not less than that. Regardless of how much are we writing, I will always do my best to match your length ♥
And before I forget! Also, please, I request you to make both parts of your OC and my love interest equal in length. It's okay if you make one part a few lines longer/shorter from the other, but I ABSOLUTELY hate it when my partner doesn't do an effort for my love interest's part, and makes an amazingly detailed part for their OC.
-----------------------------
3. Love interests:
-----------------------------
It’s pretty simple. If you roleplay my love interest/crush, I will happily roleplay yours in exchange.
See? Not complicated, and all fair play!
Now, as in for this fandom, my prefered love interest is Tracer ♥ I have got a massive girl-crush on that girl, seriously.
Honestly, I'm not sure how much I am willing to give her up if needed, but in case she's your love interest, or you can't roleplay as her for any reason, I'm willing to talk it out to see if we can find a replacement, but if you could roleplay as her for me, I will thank you FOREVER.
-----------------------------
4. Avoid going OOC:
-----------------------------
This is something REALLY important for my roleplays: Please, DO YOUR BEST on keeping the characters you're playing in-character. I know it can be difficult some times, but please show some effort in this part. Each person haves their own perceptions and headcanons of the character, and that's really appreciated. After all, that's what makes the character fun! But PLEASE, don't forget the main points of their personalities and background stories when you're going to play them. If you’re not familiarized with a certain character, my advice is that you do a proper research of it before roleplaying it. I’m also willing to give any advice to you if you need it. Don’t be afraid to ask me for any tips! I will be more than glad to help out! ♥
-----------------------------
5. Mary-sues and Gary-stu's:
-----------------------------
Over all this time and experience roleplaying and making characters for roleplay, my stance about the "Mary-Sues" and the "Gary-Stus" has changed, and I have realized that all OC creators are in their own right to make characters however they want to! So if your character is over-the-average in more ways than one, has more than one love interest or has a special quality that has not been seen in the fandom or their characters, don't feel bad about it! We all eventually get into the "Mary-Sue" area with our OC's, including myself, and a character isn't automatically "bad" because they fall into that zone. Again, it's your choice how you decide to make your character, and no one has the right to tell you it's "bad" because they don't like something about them.
So, I will be lenient with OC's! But still, of course, I will still request that they have some "minimum requirements" of some sort. You can make your character however you want to, but I still ask a well-developed character with both good and bad traits, as well as with both strengths and weaknesses. How many, it's your choice! Just make sure to balance them well!
That being said, I WON'T ROLEPLAY WITH POORLY-DEVELOPED/POORLY-WRITTEN CHARACTERS. Sorry, but a weak character doesn't allow me to enjoy a good roleplay. If I find that your OC needs MORE development, I will say 'no' to our roleplay, no exceptions.
-----------------------------
6. Plots, AU’s and other stuff:
-----------------------------
I’m open to do everything and anything, so don’t be afraid to ask me for any special requests regarding the plot. I’m also open to do any kind of AU’s (Alternate universes) and to do any love triangles if you wish. I adore roleplaying love triangles, and I will NEVER turn down an offer for one! ♥
That being said, fully-consensual polyamory relationships are also a-okay with me. Just hit me up with what you want! ;^D
-----------------------------
7. Adult themes and Limits:
-----------------------------
Because I love to make my roleplays as realistic as possible, and because, come on, it's more fun that way, my roleplays tend to have adult or more "mature" topics, such as cursing, depictions of violence and blood, implied or graphic use of drugs and alcohol, and of course, sexual topics and scenes (aka: smut). Of course, these topics are optional and not mandatory; we can discard any from the list or do a completely clean roleplay if that's what you want! Just make sure to tell me in advance what do you want and do not want to do!
Now, as in for my limits and what I do, I WON’T roleplay gore, pedophilia, rape, incest, watersports, scat, or any kind of weird fetish. I'm not really fond of bestiality either way. Please, it's really important that you tell me your limits and what are you not okay with! I wouldn't like to scare you off with... 'compromising' content in the roleplay!
On another note, I WON'T DO ADULT-THEMED ROLEPLAYS OR ROLEPLAY SMUT WITH PEOPLE UNDER THE AGE OF 18. I'm doing this for my and your security. I really don't wanna get in problems for this, neither I want you to! So if you're under the age of 18, I'm sorry, but we won't do sex scenes or more "spicy" roleplays until you're of age.
-----------------------------
8. Roleplaying vias and other roleplaying issues:
-----------------------------
My prefered via to roleplay is e-mail, simply because that's the place where I'm used to contact all (or most of) my roleplay partners. I would appreciate it if you contacted me there, however, if you prefer an alternative place to roleplay, I can do it. The other messaging services I use (that are computer-based) are Skype, AIM and Telegram.
If you want to STOP roleplaying with me, don't be afraid to tell me. It will hurt a little to see you part away, but I won't whine at you, or ask you for any explaining if you don't want to. I will completely understand. I swear <:
-----------------------------
9. I have a life too:
-----------------------------
Please, be aware that I’m NOT a person that instantly replies, or that is in the computer 24/7. Just like you (I assume), I have a life outside the internet: I go to school, I study, I go out with my friends and family, and as well, I can get lazy, and I procrastinate a lot too (like, a real lot. Seriously). And right now I have even less freetime in my hands because I'm preparing for my college entrance exams in my country.
So, all I request you to do is: Be patient. I will immediately cut off with you if you start bugging me by re-sending me the messages or ask me about our RP every 2 hours. If you haven’t received something for me in a period of 7 days (a week) or more, feel free to message me asking about me or re-sending the message. But please, be aware that I will message you ASAP. I will notify you regularly about my current status with how my things are going in my life, so you can have an idea about how much time do I have in my hands at the moment.
NOW, THIS IS A REALLY IMPORTANT NOTE: If a month or more (or roughly two weeks even) have passed and you haven't received a reply from me, please, MESSAGE ME IMMEDIATELY! My inbox has a tendency of not sending my messages sometimes, so chances are my response hasn't been sent. If you did so and you still haven't received a reply from me, don't be afraid to send me several messages in a row! Just don't stop contacting me until you receive something from me!
-----------------------------
10. Have Fun!
-----------------------------
The MOST important rule (although not exactly one) of them all: Have fun! After all, that's why we are roleplaying, right?
Also, I would like to mention: I really, really, REALLY like to talk and communicate with my roleplay partners while we are roleplaying. So don't be shy if you want to start a conversation! It will actually make me feel really happy. I LOVE meeting new people and making new friends! ♥
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And that's about it, I guess!
Has this caught your interest? Make me know! Feel free to drop a message here, or you can contact me directly at my e-mail poririzumu@hotmail.com!
If you'd rather roleplay somewhere else, send me a private message with the username of your prefered messaging service.
I cannot wait to receive your messages!
See ya'! ♥
