PLAYER WANTS

What are your favorite kinds of plots and relationships to play?
I'm not quite sure about my favorite kinds of plots to play at the moment, but I like the idea of adventure, and from close friends into lovers plot. Might find out more things in the future. For relationships, it's Friendship, Companionship, Guardianship, Kinship and mutualism.

What are your least favorite kinds of plots and relationships to play?
Plots involving rape between characters. Abuse. For relationships, maybe Bullyship? Willing to try out anything though.

What are your favorite character types to play?
Not sure at the moment. I usually roleplay as the calm and observing type although I'm trying to experiment with goofy types and other different types of characters to discover about it.

Are you a planner or a pantser? Do you prefer to pre-plan and stick to a script when posting, or do you prefer to surprise and be surprised?
Both! I usually stick to the script due to wanting to comply with the expectations of others when the plot has been planned. I don't think I'm the kind of person to surprise people but I enjoy being surprised.

How do you feel about group threads?
I think it's quite fun! Although It'll be hard for me to feel engaged in a group thread if more than 7 people joins in.

How often can you reply to any given thread? How long should a partner wait before nudging you for a post?
I usually reply once or more within a day depending on my schedule. You can nudge me for a post if I don't reply back for more than 3 days.

What is the longest you're willing to wait for a reply to a thread?
1 month is the longest I can wait for a reply unless if given a message by the player that there will be a pause.

How do you feel about instant messenger RP?
I prefer to roleplay on the site but I'm alright with it.

How do you feel about post volleying/rapidfire RP?
(Where you and another player post rapidly back and forth in a thread with each other.)
I'm tolerant with it. However, my schedule is unable to handle this since I'm only able to be online for a few minutes during my free time before logging off.

What's your preferred posting style? Long posts? Short posts? Anything and everything?
I prefer and usually write at least 1 paragraph each post and tries to write in a Semi-literate RP style due to feeling very inspired and wanting to find a way to make my writing entertaining.

Any RP styles/habits that you love?
Good narrative writing. Semi-literate and Literate Roleplay.

Any RP styles/habits that you avoid?
Metagaming. Powergaming. Godmoding. One Liners. Interrupting the tension of a RP situation that someone had been building up.


PLAYER LIMITS

What are you limits regarding powerplay/godmoding?
(For instance, do you mind if someone grabs your character? Picks them up? Punches them?)
As long if I was given a warning beforehand and if it makes sense as to why it happened and has a valid reason for it, I'm alright with it.

What are your limits in regards to romantic situations?
(What are you comfortable with and not comfortable with? Do you prefer to pre-plot relationships or let them happen organically? Are you open to IC-rejection or love-triangles? Age differences? Etc.)
In discovery about my comfort level but is open to almost anything. I prefer to go with the flow of the RP, pre-planned or not.


What are your limits with regards to graphic content such as sex, violence, drug use, sexual assault, etc? What is your comfort level?
I feel a bit uncomfortable when it comes to writing about sex but I'm fine with reading about it. Besides that, everything else is fine.

What are your limits in regards to pregnancy within plots?
(Are you okay with pregnancy in plots? Miscarriages? Loss?)
I'm uncomfortable with writing something that involves forced abortions although I'm alright with reading about it. Besides that, everything else is fine by me.

What about healing?
(For example, a blind character magically being able to see, a scarred up character having their scars repaired, etc.)
I'm fine with it as long if I had been warned.

What about characters being transformed against their will? (Think vampires, werewolves, and magical spells.)
I'm fine with it as well as long if I was warned beforehand.

Anything else?
(Anything else you want to add that other players should know!)
I'm willing try anything as long if it's not over the limits I have stated.

The sky slowly turns purple in La'marri, indicating that it was near dusk when Aislin finished closing her shop stand. After she was sure that everything was properly in place and got permission from her parents and guardian to wander around, she headed into Niahi Woods, wanting to relax and play around with her powers in private.

It was already dark when Aislin arrived in the forest, and she decided to morph into a Bird-like humanoid creature that looks almost as tall as a giraffe, with grayish blue-colored fish-like skin, a fish tail, giant feathered wings as arms, and bird claws as hands. She began to walk on her two black bird-like legs into more darker places of the woods at ease since she has night vision in the form, not caring if she had frightened some animals in the woods with her appearance, and happily 'hummed' in a voice that can be easily mistaken for a normal bird.

When she found a closed-off solitary place that's perfect for relaxing in the darker parts of the woods, she lays down on all fours, continues to hum happily, and enjoys the tranquility.

__________________IN-DEPTH STUFF

Physical Description

In her human form, She has a curvy body shape, light skin, 176cm height, 60kg weight. Mid-back length curly chestnut brown hair, monolid-shaped teal eyes, a button nose, pink lips and diamond shaped face. She prefers formal, elegant or casual clothings and likes cloaks or coats in cool and neutral tones. She's always seen wearing her blue cloak that reaches up to her ankles and has a hood, black boots, gloves and carries a brown backpack. Underneath her cloak, she wears a purple shirt, black pants and has a belt wrapped around her hips with a dagger attached onto the right side.

In her Fish-like bird form, She's a giant humanoid bird that can walk on all fours and switch into two legs, whose height is slightly lowered than a giraffe (520cm) that weighs 410kg and has grayish blue fish skin whose texture is similar to a dolphin. She has bird-like teal eyes, a fish fin on both sides of her cheeks and a tufted titmouse-like feathered gray bird crest on top of her head. Her nose and mouth became a raven-like sharp beak that's 57cm long and has sharp teeth inside. The limbs that should be her arms as a human turned into 230cm feathered large wings which can help her to fly and her hands became sharp gray color bird claws. She has black bird-like legs that are 190cm long and her anisodactyl bird toes are 40cm long. She has a fish-like tail at the back of her lower waist which is 271cm long and 150kg weight that helps her to swim. Her neck is 70cm long. In the middle of her neck, there are 2 fish fins on the left side and another 2 on the right and has gills underneath them which makes her able to breathe underwater. Despite the strange anomalies, the form oddly looks as elegant as a peacock and not exactly nightmarish one would think it is.

Personality

She has a polite and friendly attitude towards others but stays quiet most of the time due to her lack of knowledge on how to converse, give advice and to keep the conversation going besides greetings but likes to discuss theories, the unknown, philosophies, dreams and many others when given the chance. She prefers things to be peaceful and puts violence as the last course of action unless others or herself are in danger. Thinking that she should be on her best behavior, she behaves seriously although she can be quite silly and playful at times when she feels relaxed. She's adventurous and curious to learn new things but knows better to be cautious than to recklessly follow it and believes that some things are better not worth finding out. She can get moody or more easily irritated at times but tries to be patient and sensible about it, controlling her negative emotions, believing that politeness is key, although she's prone to throw, punch or kick objects to vent out her frustrations when no one's around or if truly angered and is unable to remain calm. She often goes on calming activities like listening to music or stories, stargazing, watching the sea and crafting her puppets due to finding them to be quite soothing. She dislikes hot climates and often flaps a hand fan near to her and if possible, swims at a nearby lake or puts an ice pack on her head to cool herself down when no one's around. She likes to write down whatever ideas she has in her mind but feels shy to tell others and gets embarrassed whenever people talk about her creative works.

Weaknesses

Fire - She has an innate fear of fire since she was a child despite having no accidents with it and flinches everytime she sees it.  The bigger the flames and closer to her, the more it'll frighten her. She feels dizzy and can even fall conscious just from watching it due to anxiety but is more tolerant when it comes to battle or cooking due to actively trying to push her fear aside.

Sleepiness - The feeling of struggling to be awake when she's drowsy is terrible for her and causes her mind to be muddled. Sleepiness can overcome her, making her nap suddenly for a moment even during a battle and makes her overemotional, more Impulsive in following her anger and more prone to crying due to her emotional tolerance being lowered when she's sleepy.

Magic/Abilities

Non-Magical:

Doll making - She's able to make puppets, dolls, marionettes, plushies, paper puppets, etc, through various ways like sewing, wood making, etc, when given sufficient materials.

Baking - She can bake various kinds of sweets like cupcakes, pastries, etc. She's able to cook other dishes like fish, etc, but is more proficient in baking.

Puppeteering - She's quite skilled in manipulating puppets to make them look alive which she uses for her storytelling although she believes that she's still a novice in it.

Archery - She was taught how to do it by Yvonne but is quite a novice in it compared to others and would miss her target at times.

Agility - She's quite fast especially when it comes to running and has quick reflexes that help her in battle.

Magical:

Mutant Bird shifter- After she wore an enchanted mask which had dissipated into her, She can transform herself at will into a facultative quadrupedal Fish-like bird creature that can fly, swim underwater and has night vision. Although she's able to breathe underwater, she cannot go into deeper depths than the Epipelagic/Sunlight zone (200m) due to being unable to handle the colder undercurrent pressure of the deep waters. The mask can be separated from her by outside force but it's quite difficult to do so since its magic has already merged and become a part of her body. She's able to stay permanently in both of her forms but needs energy to revert back to another.

Sound waves - She can emit an extremely powerful scream of high amplitude which sends out a strong sound wave made by sonic energy from her vocal cords that's capable of pushing and blowing away her targets. It's unable to conjure when the user is muted.

Telepathy- She's able to communicate with people through telepathy as long as they're in her sight.

Ventriloquist - She can create or mimic sounds and voices even without moving her lips and can make it seem like it came from somewhere else which can be used to trick people.

Relationships

Yvonne Levine (Guardian, Alive. Serenian) - A mentor whom Aislin was introduced to by her parents and agreed to watch over Aislin and become her caretaker in case her parents ever met with unfortunate circumstances in La'marri. She gets along quite nicely with her and is always interested in listening about the mage's experiences, knowledge and watching her craft dolls.

Her parents (Diana Florentine & Darius Halloran, Alive. Sidonyakis.)  -
Loving parents whom she's currently living together with in La'marri. At first, she was worried and thought they'll be afraid of her just like the villagers when they found out about her magical abilities, but she felt touched when they became supportive and more protective of her instead, even moving out of their home to give her a better life. She's very close with them and spends time with her parents as much as possible due to the fact that there are a lot of chances to do so compared to the time when they were in Sionad Tundra. She's quite protective and caring for their well-being and will not hesitate to fend back against those who'll harm them.

Others - She used to have a stable relationship with the villagers back in Sionad Tundra but became distant from her for what she did in her feral state when she first became the Mutant Bird and began to fear her. She prefers to stay far away from the settlement she was born in unless she has a proper disguise due to her fear that the villagers might recognise and are still afraid of her.

History

She was a magicless person, borned in a settlement in Sionad Tundra to loving parents but rarely sees her father due to the fact he works at the sea with the whaling fleet and comes back at winter, which was the only time he could rest and see his family, leaving most of the child care to her mother. During winter, the 7 years old Aislin who was playing in the snow, found an enchanted bird-like mask that was created by an unknown Mage but got abandoned in the snow when it was discovered to be defective, unstable and a failure. Thinking it was pretty and unaware of its effect and history, she brought it back home and showed it to her parents, who thought the mask was harmless and let their child keep it when they saw she was happy with it.

A few weeks later after Aislin got the mask, she decided to wear it to see how it would look on her, but then turned into a giant feral Fish-like bird that went on a rampage once she wore it. She became exhausted from being injured by the villagers and fell unconscious, which made her revert back into human form. Fortunately no one was killed during it but some villagers became injured from stopping the creature. The mask was nowhere to be found when it had actually dissipated inside of Aislin. Some villagers who were skeptical, began to fear the girl, thinking that she can turn back into it again.

Aislin began to live with her mother after she had reached her puberty and sometimes was able to see her father in winter. She discovered she gained magical abilities since she wore the mask. Knowing that some villagers were still afraid of her, she tested them out in secret, only showing them to her parents, who didn't mind as long as they didn't get out of control. She has fully stabilized her control over her fish-like bird form at the age of 11 and the settlement's fear of Aislin turning back into the beast began to lessen but came back stronger when a villager had caught her transforming back into it and told the whole settlement about it and Aislin began to be treated as an outcast. Her mother, who wanted to give her child a better life, began to discuss leaving the settlement with her father to which he agreed.

When the weather turned kinder and they had gotten enough supplies, the parents brought the 13 years old Aislin and went into other different settlements. Her parents made it their goal to bring Aislin into La'marri when they heard about it from some traders. After some difficulties, the family managed to get out of Sionad Tundra safely, began traveling the outside world and arrived at La'marri after many months. Her parents became close friends with Yvonne, a mage who likes to make dolls, marionettes, etc and helped to guide Aislin with her magical abilities. Aislin, at the age of 15, became interested in making dolls as she watched Yvonne sew and worked on them to which the mage happily taught her when the mage noticed her interest. Nowadays, Aislin makes plushies, dolls, marionettes, sweets, etc, and sells them to people on her shop stand while making puppet shows for children and travels outside of La'marri from time to time, wanting to explore the world when she's bored.

Questions and Suggestions / Eligible character idea
June 19, 2023, 12:22:36 PM
Questions about character's concept.

1. Character's magical abilities

Is it alright if I make a character who used to be a magicless human but then gained magical abilities and can transforms into a Fish-like bird creature (Whose species I'm uncertain to name of besides Marine Chimera or Mutant Bird.) when she wore an enchanted mask that was created and abandoned by an unknown Mage when it was discovered to be defective. The Creature is able to fly, has night vision, can create strong sound waves from its beak that's capable to push her targets like caravans, humans, dragons but is not strong enough to destroy or shatter things and is able to breathe underwater but cannot go below deeper depths than Epipelagic/Sunlight Zone (200m) due to being unable to handle colder undercurrents pressure. More details about appearance will be on the joining form when it's confirmed to be eligible and when I'm finish writing about it.

2. Character's History
The OC was born in a settlement or Hyoite in Sionad Tundra. She became feral and went on a rampage but only injured some villagers and didn't do anything further than that when she worn the mask for the first time. When she reverted back into human from exhaustion, the mask dissipated and its mana merged into her body and she managed to stabilized her magical abilities when she found out about them. After some years, she transferred to La'marri with the help of her parents.

Welcome Wagon / Salutations!
June 19, 2023, 11:32:25 AM
Greetings! I'm VioletDusk, nice to meet you all! I'm a roleplayer who started on Discord and has been roleplaying for a few weeks and enjoys it very much (Although I believe that my writing could use some work and that there's alot more to learn.)

I found this website through forum roleplay and decided to try it out since it looks interesting. Outside of RP, I like to write, listening to music and watching movies under the genres of comedy, adventure, fantasy, musical and detective.

I'm a person who adores animals like owls, penguins, hummingbirds, polar bears, Koi fishes and many more.

Best wishes and have a good day!
