Welcome to the world of Fortuna, a land of fantastic proportions. This is an original fantasy roleplay that takes place in a world developed over nearly a decade of work and collaboration. We aim to encourage all participants to have a hand in the stories of the characters here, and the world around them. Your choices are key - so make them with pride. You decide who wins the wars, you decide who becomes King, the world is ours, and together we will bring it to life!
First, I hope it's okay to post this here, I didn't see anywhere it would fit better!! Please tell me if it should go somewhere else uWu Basically I have a CHARACTER I'd like to fit into someone else's plot, so like, it's like a want ad in reverse! Here are the traits I want in this character, if she sounds like she could fit into your plot (even if it requires some MINOR changes) please please post! I'm okay to change some stuff, just not everything cause this is the character I am interested in playing right now!
I want to use Emilia Clarke for my playby!
She is a noble, or at least upper middle class.
She is an Advanced Illusion Mage BUT she is uncreative...
So she reads books and poetry to get ideas for things to make with illusions!
As such she really loves stories she reads, and tends to romanticize things
She loves poets/writers/artists a LOT
I definitely want a romance plot for her at some point, but it doesn't need to be attached to the plot she starts in!
I am not set on a race yet! If you have suggestions let me know. I hope she fits with someone's plot!!!
She seems like a real sweetheart... Hmm, would you be interested in going a little dark with the plot? I have a bard who's a poet, but he's also an apocalypse seeking, cannibalistic demon. Let me know if you can jive with that.
WHOA! He sounds REALLY dark, I am personally totally good with darker plots, but I don't want her to be evil, since I really like the idea of her being sweet and naiive.
That's cool! I was actually thinking that naiveté would actually be what could make them work well together! He is extremely manipulative, so it sounds like she would be a prime target. This is his storyline, if you want to give it a look-see. To summarize it: He's the hellforged son of an imprisoned deity that wants to be set free. To do so, he needs to open the gates to hell (Ephilroa), which would join the worlds of life and death. And to do that he has to complete a bunch of tasks to break seals! These tasks would be where he's been connecting with a lot of different characters, and maybe Kelis would be able to tie into them! This post is the different tasks!
Let me know what you think, but no hard feelings if it's not your style.
Ah! Sorry! Looking at it now I see what you mean. I remembered having a translation up at one point, but I guess it got lost in the shuffle somewhere.
Basically each seal is something one of the major deities did to protect the world of the living from the world of the dead. There's a lot of mumbo jumbo, but probably what's important right now is in Dirys. Dirys is an industrial kind of place that places a high value on status - so that could be a good for wanting to be some kind of noble! Ichabod is in Dirys right now working on seal 'X', which states...
At which hour golden ore seeps into the vein of the bottom soil, and yond soil rises to overtake 't, the Seal of Diassei shalt beest broken, and the deserts shalt ope.
So what IC this is taken to mean is that when a member of the lower class and upper class trade places (like Prince and the Pauper), and the lower class kills the other to maintain the power, the seal will break. Since that god is really heavily about wealth, greed, and status, that's what it's based around.
Perhaps your character can get involved in this part in some way? Maybe Ichabod's mother (she speaks to him through his mind) can advise him that your character would be useful, though not how, so he begins to mold and manipulate her into doing things that benefit this plan?
Or, there's some other seals of course. If this one doesn't appeal to you, I've got a couple ideas for others. And if none of this appeals to you, I can go back to the drawing board and look at my other characters for something that could fit your girl in!
Okay, I think that makes more sense!!! I had TOTALLY been looking at Dirys or Liesdro from where I want her to be from, so Dirys makes sense, but just know I don't want her to die!!! Not YET anyway ^w^
I think she will be in a marriage, but like, a business arrangement not a loving marriage, does that seem right? I don't think her family is THAT important, but maybe they can tie into important people somehow, if that would be helpful for your demon plot, maybe her husband is involved in some important business with someone really upper crust that she can get in touch with for the switcheroo?
Side note, umm, is there a way to make posts here go to my email? Then I will see them a lot faster!!! Not all posts, but just like, this thread, or threads I pick? Sorry, I'm so forum illiterate LOL

Hooray! That sounds like it could totally work. Another question for you: Is her marriage a happy one, despite it being a business arrangement, or?
And I think you can. If you bookmark this thread, and then go to your profile -> Edit profile -> Notifications, you should be able to set bookmarked threads notifying you by email when someone posts in them. Let me know if that works for you!
