Here's a collection of plotlines that I've personally written up and would like to roleplay! You can offer your own if none of these interest you, or we can plot something up aside from that.
- Character A is a pirate captain who has just plundered a ship owned by the local kingdom. Within the ship were plenty of gems and jewels, and gold to spare among other valuable things such as food that would keep their crew fed for days, clothes that could be sold or ripped up into scraps to wrap wounds, and even some more expensive ingredients that could be sold off to a port wizard who'd later sell them to adventurers in need. Needless to say, it was enough to keep themselves and their crew in gold for awhile. However, while their crew are moving things from one ship to the other, they come across something strange - a slave who had stowed upon the ship in order to seek freedom. Character B is a defiant, brooding type of person who has had it with being pushed around their entire life; after being captured and subsequently forced to work for the very people they've grown up hating, they'd do anything to stay free. Maybe anything could involve joining A's crew, working to earn their keep or perhaps it involves B tossing themselves overboard when they hear what A plans to do with them; either way, they're probably not going down without a fight. And A does have half a mind to return B in order to get reward money... After all, all the things they plundered from the ship have all been worth something, so it's likely B is as well.
- In a world where Cyborgs are discriminated against and treated as lesser than human, Character A has to suffer through document checks, harassment, and even violence against them without being able to complain or fight back unless they want to be thrown in the scrap heap. They make their way through life, having to constantly prepare themselves before stepping out their door or repair themselves after they've been attacked. Character B, who is completely human, doesn't have to deal with this; they can bypass document checks, hardly get harassed on the street, and have likely not even been in a fight before. They do, however, advocate for Cyborg rights and go out of their way to help people in need, regardless of if they're human or not. Recently, A has been thrown out on the street when their landlord kicks them out of their apartment with no real reason aside from enforcing an "anti-Cyborg" ban as "no humans want to live with cybernetic neighbours." B stumbles upon A while they're down on their luck and after talking for awhile, B offers to let them stay with them. However, their own place has this ban as well and the two have to avoid suspicion in order for both of them to keep from getting kicked out... That is, if A takes B up on their offer. (They could be strangers, friends who haven't spoken or seen each other in awhile, etc.)
- Character A is a vampire hunter; they're very by the book and always get the job done. They generally don't have too much of a problem doing their job, at least unless someone close to them is involved. They're typically not the type of person to form relationships due to their job, but they do have a handful of friends, one being Character B, who is another hunter they often work with. Because of the two of them are close, it's easy to tell that they trust each other and they often confide in each other for some reason or another. However, after a solo hunt went awry, B is turned into a vampire and exiled from the order that they work for. However, whenever someone asks, the response is always "they left on their own accord." Now isolated, B tries to do their job while also be hunted down by the very order they built their reputation with. Unfortunately for them, A is the most recent hunter sent to kill them, not knowing who the vampire they're sent to kill is. Should they find out, it would be hell for both of them, particularly if A wants to continue with the job... Neither of them would want to kill one of their close friends, particularly because they have unspoken feelings for each other, but A always gets the job done and B isn't the type to go down easy.
- Character A is an ancient forest spirit who has watched over a village for hundreds of years, watching from their perch, accepting prayers and thanks for their duty. However, they cannot leave the forest surrounding their shrine due to magic restricting them. Character B is an average human who enjoys a good spook or two. They've heard from friends who have explored the area about strange sightings, noises, and otherwise. Eager to explore and find out the mystery (or just get freaked out, go home, and not be able to sleep for awhile), they decide to investigate. Except they meet A in the process, revealing the cause of the strange events as a rather bored, lonely forest spirit. (Things can go from there or we can play a few months down the line where they're already acquainted with one another.)
