Hello there! My name is Yanaike and I'm craavvving for adventure!

I'm looking for a RP-partner to go on an epic quest or explore the unknown. I love surprises, secrets, going all-in with our imagination, weird worlds… I hope you get the idea!

I believe a plot is much more successful if we both contributed to it. As such, you won't find a list with plots here, I preferably come up with a plot together with you, rather than picking a pre-defined plot! Generally I start brainstorming by comparing our interests or by matching characters together, but if you have other interesting brainstorming ideas I would love to hear them as well!

So, hop in… Below you'll find three tabs. The first one contains some expectations, what can you expect from me, what do I expect from you. The second tab contains all of my interests I could think of. Finally, the last tab contains some of my pre-made characters including the roles they could play and how well they would score on the six common roleplay attributes on a scale from 1 to 10. All of my characters are very flexible. I mentioned a few alternate forms of my characters, but I can also adapt them for different settings. Most of my characters also have some sort of backstory.


  • What can you expect from me?
    • Quite picky when it comes to my partners. If I feel things are not going to work between us, I'll tell you. I rather be fair and tell you what's on my mind during the brainstorm session than causing a disappointment when we're already rolling.
    • Intermediate role-player. I'm not that confident about my roleplaying skills, but I try to create fleshed-out characters, settings and ideas.
    • Usually I write pre-made characters, because I'm can better empathize with them. All of my characters are adaptable though for a lot of different RPs.
    • I prefer female characters and straight relationships, but I'm also open for other possibilities.
    • Timezone: GMT+1/Western Europe
    • Posting about 4-5 times a week. I'm active in the evening on weekdays (except Tuesday) and during the whole day on some weekends. I might post multiple times a day depending on timezone differences and the amount of inspiration. I tend to give you regular updates of my real life schedule.
    • Posting anywhere between 4 and 40 lines depending on inspiration, the amount of stuff you give me to work with and on whatever is happening in the roleplay (conversation between our characters lead to generally shorter replies).
    • Not native English, which means I might be struggling finding the right vocabulary to tell exactly what I want to say. I do use spellings check and google translate (to look up single words, not full sentences) though.
    • I'm okay with libertine content. Iwaku rules apply, and I only do this with a select few characters. Please let me know if you want this to be an option.

    What do I expect from you?
    • Brainstorming. This is a big thing for me. I expect you to come up with interesting ideas and ask me questions about things I like or dislike. I don't want you to send me fully-fleshed out plots.
    • Communication. If something is bothering you, or if you need to take a break for a while, please tell me! Let me know! Roleplaying should be fun, not like an obligation!
    • More communication. We can always talk out-of-character. Don't be shy. Let's be friends!
    • About 4-5 posts a week, minimum. If you give me less than 2 posts a week I'll gradually loose interest. If something comes up in real life which makes you unable to post for a longer period, please tell me!
    • Enough content in your posts that give me inspiration for a reply. If you can do this in one line, be my guest, but usually a minimal reply of around 8-10 lines is more safe.
    • Someone who is able to push the story forward and not only relying on me to do so.

    • Adventure (obviously). Although, I much rather prefer adventure in the sense of exploring/mystery/problem solving than action-scenes. That being said, I won't deny that there will undoubtedly be some fighting-scenes, and I'm open for them as well, as long as they don't make up the majority of our story.
    • Fantasy: but leaning slightly more towards low- or urban-fantasy.
    • Modern settings: generally I like to take the real modern world as a base and add fantasy-elements to it. The story doesn't have to be in a modern time period though!
    • (Low-)Sci-fi
    • The weirdest ideas you could think of. Our imagination is the sky. The sky is the limit!
    • Quests
    • Worldbuilding
    • Parallel/Alternate Universies
    • Time-travelling (maybe)
    • On the go: characters travelling during the course of our RP, maybe in a vehicle for example a boat, campervan or car?
    • Our characters doesn't have to be travelling though. A quest can also be more stationary. Trying to escape for example?
    • Double identities: main characters struggling between (the problems of) their regular lives and (the problems of) their lives as adventurers/hero's
    • Post-apoclyptic
    • Romance
    • Drama
    • Dystopian world
    • Interesting locations: caves, urban environment, islands, forest, swamp, ruins, valley, mountains, temples, secret facility, maze, desert, snow-landscape, ghost-twon, in space, underground etc.
    • Characters with driving forces or motives to go on an adventure: gold/reward, survival, trying to escape/run away, knowledge, power, forced/threatened, excitement/thrill, finding lost family, part of a person's profession, returning home etc.
    • Maybe there could be some sort of conflict between our characters? Different motives for example?
    • Artefacts (with or without special powers)
    • Inspired by (Greek) myths?

  • Yanaike
    Straight | Thief | Hacker | Witch | Librarian | Nomadic | Hitch-Hiker | Adventurer | Spy | Scout | Messenger
    A sweet, young nomadic adventurer driven by knowledge and technology. Her most remarkable feature is a long monkey-like tail. She constantly feels like a drop-out and often prefers to flee away, scared of what other people think and scared to face any problems.
    Yanaike was the first, and still one of my most favorite characters for roleplaying. She requires a lot of trust and patience to get her full potential, but she'll definitely be worth the wait.

If you side with her, you'll have an amazing and very supporting friend. If you go against her, you'll have a fierce some rival!
    Esmylia is one of my most flexible characters and can be adapted for almost any situation, including but not limited to MxF and FxF relationships, modern settings, space-travelling, survival, post-apocalypse etc.

    Simone

How about supernatural modern-urban setting. I'm in the middle watching the show Dexter and have fallen in love with the series. Anyway would wanna do like two cops chasing down a serial killer with ties to the supernatural, or something like that?
 
I would love to do some kind of adventure/science fiction rp with you! I love most of the genres you mentioned so I'd be up for many of them, or some kind of combination! I'm not sure how often I would be able to post because AP exams and finals are coming up so our teachers are slamming us with homework and all kinds of review, but summer is coming up soon so I should be able to reply more often!
